A while ago i wanted to swap my engine stupid 5sfe to a 3sgte but i changed my mind because it was going to be an illegal engine , now i dont care if its illegal so i will start saving money for the swap ... i will probably be swapping sometime next year but right now i want to know which engine i am better off buying :
an MR2 3sgte which will come with the right transmision if i am not wrong or the st185 3sgte which will come with the useless AWD transmision Whats the difference between them anyways ? This post has been edited by NaderG: Sep 9, 2007 - 10:46 AM |

if you are just doing straight engine swap you might not need a beater car. yes its nice if you don't know what you are doing, but honestly if i did another swap (minus wiring) i could do it in a weekend if al the parts were there etc. find out who is in your area that has done this and get to know them
