Ive decided im doing the swap... Ive reasearched so much and the confusing part to me is. What engine will fit in my 1996 GT.

These are some that i found...

-97 Toyota-celica st205 3s-gte complete motor + 5spd-4wd m/t + wire harness + non ecu (big turbo) (motor set) 245hp

-94 Toyota-Celica ST185 3S-gte complete motor + 5spd-m/t + ecu + wire harness (motor set) 225hp us$ + shipping

-87-90 toyota-celica ta63 3t-gte+5spmt (complete motor, + ecu + wire harness ) (monthly special

Those are 3 choices i found so far. VenusAuto.. Any info is needed i want to purchase stuff this weekend..

Thank you

Have your researched this at all? A 3sgte is a 3sgte, they both mount the same way. The wiring is going to be different from year to year. There are a few suttle differences between generations, types of turbo's etc.. You really should take the time and search.

Alrighty then,,, this is what i mean by the silly arguments. This whole web site is about what everyone has done, correct? Ive done a lot of research, and searching on here, read all the forums, and this would be called researching also.
The only way to know if something is a sure thing when it comes to swapping is to talk to people that have already did it. The things im trieing to find out is like the wiring, you say on certain years the wiring is different. Well those are the things i want to know. As for rushing into things, i have not bought anything yet. And im not purchasing in till i have all the facts.
