I have a 7AFE and want to put in a 3SGE in it. Will i need a whole front clip to do it to avoid buying other parts? Will I need to do all new wiring for it? New ECU? Will the engine fit right in or will I have to build new support for it? I'm thinking about trashing my 7AFE turbo and putting the 3SGE in. My Engine has high miles on it and its not worth the work to rebuild. Any help would be appreciated. Wondering if I could get a list or something of stuff to to to complete the swap, I havent really seen anybody do a 3SGE before, just a 3SGTE.

before we say that a vvt-i 3sgte is a bad idea, can anyone give any proven reasons why?? im pretty sure that there is a 3sgte with vvti anyways, therefore making anybodies plan of turboing a beams 3sge kinda unesesscary. And sorta like the vvl on the sr20, it actually helps more than anything else....anywho, a beams swap will be 2k or higher, 3rd gen, which is alittle less in power than the redtop beams, can go for 500-1200....btw, hanyo actually has the rest of how the swap should go for you..peace

blacktop beams: 200-220hp
redtop beams : 180-200hp
3rd gen 3sge: 160-185hp, depending on where its from
2nd gen 3sge: 140-175hp, also depending on where you get it from
1st gen 3sge, not worth putting in your car... about 100-140hp....
