So i recently bought a 94 celica st 7afe, want more power obviously and found a 5vz-fe from a 4runner for 500 with ecm and all wiring. Was inquiring how much work would be needed to swap this in vs 3vz or 1mz. Also what transmission would i need. I have read k-esds swap but i just want to clarify if its more complicated swapping it into a st than a gt. What motor mounts would be needed, what axles, and such. If i can keep it a cheaper swap and not extensively hard ill go for it. Anyone shed some light on this?

are you doing RWD swap? because i dont see swapping a rwd in a fwd spot. the amount you are saving in the engine you will spend in customizing. not easy, not cheap. plus probably a custom bellhousing is not going to be cheap, assuming no fwd tranny fits

It might not clear the hood. 500 for everything is a good deal, but i would hold out for a 1MZ/3MZ. just look good deals are out there. The 5VZ's intake manifold and throttle body is pointing in the wrong direction. You could probably fab up a mix match using a 1MZ intake manifold.
