my main question that bugs me is ..if i end up deciding to do a 3S-GTE swap on my 95 gt coupe dose this also mean that i must convert the car to AWD... that is kinda my intenstion but is it possible with a coupe?...or does it mean only the engine would go into place and the car will remain FWD

its a bit of work to do the AWD conversion as the rear is different due to fuel tank, diff and drive-shafts. it that even possibly on a coupé? if you have an S54 gearbox the 3S-GTE will bolt up to it keeping it FWD

its the transmission that makes it AWD, not the engine.
you use your tranny, or another that bolts to it, and thats it.
can you convert it to AWD? yes.
please read thru the stickys here and in the forced induction section, and use the search function. it will answer 90% of the questions you will have when your just starting to learn about these cars.
