Looking to do a 3sgte swap

I got a 91' Mr2 non-turbo, 5 speed, but I want to know what kind of things I will need to change besides the ECU, tranny, etc...will stock motor mounts work? Im a NOOB with this car.

...

This topic has been brought up many times b4 and u can get a link from one of those topics that sells the entire rear clip of the car... so no matter what u need, it will come with that rear section of the car... The car I bought already had the swap done so I am unsure, but I imagine the motor mounts would be in a different location seeing as it is a completely different motor, one from yamaha, and one from toyota... Please don't quote me on this, however I kow there is already a topic on this board that has the link I mentioned earlier.
And yes u need the ecu, tranny and motor, but I would recommend to buy the 93+ as it has the limited slip differential......... best for resale, and helps with the oversteer and understeer issue

Engine, tranny, ecu, wiring harness, fuel pump... those are the big ones. I would personally buy a half cut as opposed to a 'clip'. The term clip seems to get getting a lot more lax lately. You will need to use the motor mounts from the new engine.
