Ok, this is a question I have been thinking about for a long time. In the future I plan to do a 3s-gte swap. The question I have is.......... Is it better to get the whole front (clip I guess its called?) of an actual gt4 or is it any different to get a clip of a mr2 3s-gte? I would think that getting the clip from the mr2 would require you having to buy more parts but the clip from the gt4 (since it is the same body style) would already have most of the things needed?

well, you would need to take out your entire trans/drivetrain(all the axles and such) and put in the 4wd stuff. to do this you need the rear bedpan from a gt4( when you open up your hatch, thats like the floor, on a regular celi it goes down too far and the rear axle wouldn't fit w/o a lot of modification) also i believe a relocated gas tank is necessary, again use one from a gt4. you pretty much need the mechanical parts of an entire gt4, unless your a psychopath and getting a custom trans/drivetrain built.
