Anyone done an engine swap? I have a 1994 Celica GTS and I want to get a different engine with more power. From what I see I guess the best way to go would be the 3SGE or the 3SGTE if I wanted turbo. Now is there a big difference from installing the 3SGE or 3SGTE? Some people tell me that you need to change the Transmisson is that true?

Any information is appreciated folks.

If you have a manual transmission I would say get the 3S-GTE. If you have an automatic transmission I would get a '97 3S-GE with VVTi. In Japan, and elsewhere, the Celica SS-III came equipped with the 200HP 3S-GE and an automatic transmission as an option. As it turns out, the auto tranny used for the SS-III is the A140E. That is that same transmission that is used in the US Celica GT with the 5S-FE motor.
