I have a 1991 gts hatchback 2.2 5 speed, with 150k on it. It runs, and drives just fine, but it is completely rusted out, to the point that my drivers seat is falling through the floor.
Anyway, I know where there is a 1994 gt hatchback sitting, for a reasonable price, but it has no motor. It is set up for manual trans, and the body looks really good.
My question is will this be an easy engine swap? I have a buddy that would do the work for me for cheap.

Transfer over the intake/exhaust manifold and engine harness and a few other minor bits from the '94 to the '91 engine and you're good to go. About as easy a swap as you'll get short of having exactly the same car.

If you don't have any of the engine parts in the '94 that will complicate things.

your 91 has an older version of the 5S-FE. They are not the same. why dont you just spend about 3500 and get a running 6th gen celica? in fact you can find a 7th gen for that price if you look.
