I keep getting contradicting info. One site says the engine will not meet smog, and yet people have swapped the engine into US Celica's. I Live in California where all the regulations are the strictest, is it legal to swap in the 3s-gte or not?

you can do the 2nd gen

its less expensive and has pretty much the same power potential and it was released inside the u.s. so you can use it.
