Recently have access to buying a very cheap forged and rebuild gen 3 3sge that came out of an sw20 mr2. Even with this putting out 165kw in still skeptical if this project would be worth it with the complications compared to a redtop beams. Does anyone know all the required process and wiring procedures to complete this swap into an st204?
Couldn't find any threads online and I'm just worried that problem solving on a swap like this is out of my skillset without help and spending the extra on importing a beams would be worthwhile to avoid the stress. Thanks |

The engine and head are the same that you値l find in a Celica but the coolant lines are different, alternator needs to be relocated, power steering pump needs to be added, harness will need to be replaced with a Celica harness or modified to work in a Celica which is no small feat, and I知 sure I知 forgetting a couple of things. None of the changes are a big deal if you have a 3S-GE from a Celica sitting next to your MR2 3S-GE, otherwise you池e in for a pretty big headache for not that much power.

Cheers very good to know, well that makes the decision easy since finding a cheap blown celica 3sge here would be very uncommon its definitely not worth getting parts individually would be a headache eitherway. I'm better off doing it the right way and finding a good st202 beams halfcut for the real deal and being happier with the finished product |
