6G Celicas Forums

Hey guys hows it going? im new to these forums. i added to this site because i Love my 94 Celica! its the greatest freakin car ever built! and i cant wait to get it moving again.
point being it has been parked for 3 years I could never sell it, but didnt have the cash to fix it. now I am going to get it running again but. i want to swap the engine.
have you guy heard of www.RPMGarage.com? I want to buy a front clip from them but dont know any history on them.

what swap should i go with and why?
since the engine will be out of the vehicle... what internals should i do?
im trying to get decent power. but im not verry good with the whole mechanics part. i just really like the car.

what should i do?
help me out guys

i dont have personal experience with rpmgarage but they're pretty legit. some people here have dealt with them.

go to the stickies in the engine, transmission and maintenance. a lot of info there. few people have done v6 swaps too. just search it.

3sgte-4,000$ 300fwhp

3sge beams-3,000$ 200 fwhp

4agze-190fwhp 3000$

turbo your 5sfe or 7afe-depends on parts but over 2000$ and over 150 hp

All swap related info could be found in performance and engine forums mate. Most people who consider swaps either try to be different or stick with a proven 3sgte swap. Naturally there are far more 3s swapped cars than there are other engines and for good reasons.

well i want to do the 3sgte because it fit right on to my motor mounts. but i dont know if there are better wiring harnesses than the stock ones? and what kind of internals i should go with. if im already putting it in... might as well do it right.

what about the turbo?
should i go with the stock engine mount intercooler or a front mount?

u can splice the stock harness into the 3sgte harness.I would recommend installing a stock 3sgte and make it run perfectly...and see wat 260 horses feels like in our lightweight cars then go from there because 260 may be plenty for u.
