Ok so i know everyone is talking about 3stge swaps (which im thinking about, however the transmission is auto and i hear the exhaust doesn't match up?) but im just wondering about the 7th gen celica engines. Are they able to be swaped in? and if so does it create the same problem with the tranny?

i'd say if money is critical, get a low milage 5sfe, There was a member on celica.net who swapped a 97 5s to his 90st184. The engine+labor costed his close to 750. Mind you the engine only had 30K miles on it. That is what i'd do for a daily commuter...if your car is a project car, then i'd go with 3s route!
