lol be more specific...if you mean which is easier to do the swap on its the GT cause of just dropping it right in unlike the ST which requires some minor modifications to the engine bay (like moving engine mounts & etc.), other than that they both just around the same to work on.

I’ve decided not to do the swap just because it's not really that good to have that much power on an fwd car, lots of lost traction. And instability, a very wise man once said on the forum our cars are beautiful, but they aren't performance machines, so just accept it. If you want performance just get another car. So I’ve decided just to turbo my st, for a lil extra umph, oh and of course NAWZ!!! Hah, but ya anyway that should hold me out until I get my supra smile.gif.

what part of jersey you from ?
do you have a celi yet ?
If not you can search for reak he's form jersey too. he is selling his car for like 2000 or something its an st. dont know if its 5spd. if you are planning a swap save yourself the headache and get a 5spd.
GT or ST swapping is all the same. just with the st you have to source more parts.

you can find a 94 st for nothing these days. plus if ur doing a swap the engine doesnt have to be that great cause you wont use it.

all you really need to swap in a 3s into an st is gt tranny, gt passanger side motor mount, gt shifter cables, gt axles think thats the only difference from gt to st. I'm prolly forgetting some stuff.

get a 5sp thats whats important right now
later
