hey guys, aight I have got a '97 GT with the 5sfe
And on a chance occasion, i scored a JDM 3rd gen 3S-GE for under $200

Supposedly the engine was in a car and running as of last year. Unless i pull off the head and find something crazy like a blown head gasket or damaged rings tongue.gif ..right now ill assume it runs great.

So im going to do swap without a front clip, im a starving college kid, i dont mind scrambling for the ST202 parts i need.
The engine has manifolds, alternator, injectors, ALL sensors, and a full UNCUT wire harness w/ fuse block

so
Since the car is LHD, will the harness need to be lengthened?

Im getting a euro spec st202 guage cluster, could i potentially just use a 3SGE ECU out of an mr2?

Suggestions for mods?

thnks

that's not so much dependent on the country, but the engine blocks being different... and yes, they are different.
