So the 3s-gte swap is gonna take more work for my ST? I really want to do this swap and is there any way we can purchase the engine straight from japan?

to swap the 3sgte into a ST you are going to need the full front clip...period.. otherwise there's alot of sorcing of parts.

you need the front axles out of the GT4 or GT cuz the ST ones will break.

also for the transmission you CAN NOT use the St one... it wont hook up.. also the GT or the Camary ones arnt the best options go with the MR2 one or use the one off of the 3sge engine cuz its gonna be the strongest front wheel trans you can get and is a straight bolt in on a 6th where the MR2 one needs some extra parts <--- not 100% on that but pretty sure

edit - u also need new motor mounts the GT ones usally work depending on what gen 3sgte you have
