Im planning on swapping out my 5sfe from my celica asap . The engine has more than 200k miles and is still running but not so strong. Transmission is getting there too. It's time to rebuild her but, I've never owned a Toyota only previous cars were a evo 8 ( rip ) car accident.. And a em1 which I sold to travel across Europe. Now those cars I had already ideas on what I wanted to do since the options on what I wanted to do to those cars were set. But, with the celica all everyone wants to do is a 3sgte swap which is very easy and cost efficient but pricing to me idc about. I just want to build a celica worth being dreamt about. I had several swaps in mind, nothing fwd. Can't have fun with those but, I have seen a 2jz in a gt4 but, thats not me. I was thinking of cross breeding the car . Now I thought of throwing a 13b rx7 engine in the car ... 4g63t 7 bolt ... Of course the 3s gte ... Rb20det & 25det ... Sr20 from a s13 ... Ka24 from a 240sx ... A 1jz turbo or non turbo nd that's about all. Hell I've been wondering what other engines can work with my car . I don't think the Mazda would as much not the rb engines. Just need ideas because this swap is going to happen very very soon nd as soon as it starts that's a done deal no going back. Im mainly after drifting or awd exploitation ! Something I can bring to meets maybe sema one day and wow those celica owners who want or have the same ideals. Im not up for negative Critisim or telling me to rid of my car. I want my car I actually like the 6g celica. So helpful ideas any builds done already.. Anything useful ! Thanks

My issue with the 4G63 swap is this: You want a 2 liter turbocharged 4 cylinder with AWD.... Why go with a 4G63 and AWD Mitsubishi engine when Toyota already built these cats with a 3S-GTE and AWD? The 4G63 has had more support and research put into it, no doubt, so if you want 500+ hp at the wheels, a 4G63 may be a reasonable engine to choose, but why not stick to what was built for the 6th gen Celica?

I'm not trying to discourage you by any means. I'm just letting you know your options.
