Can a 4WD 3SGTE be swapped into a ST200 Carina ED?, Looking to get rid of the 4SFE next year Options

[Dickson]

Hey guys I asked this question nearly 6 months ago and got no response so am asking again as a separate topic now.
I have a 1996 Toyota Carina ED ST200 AT, which is essentially a 4 door Celica. I'm a month or so away from changing the OEM 14" wheels for some ROH 205/45R17 with Toyo Proxes 4 tyres.
I'm wanting to check the options of changing out the engine, which is a 4SFE front wheel drive, for hopefully a 4WD 3SGTE, and wanted the car to not show many signs of having had an engine swap, apart from obviously the fact that it would make different noise. An older topic made mention of how you could conceivably take out the 4SFE and change it to the 4WD ST205 3SGTE engine without serious mod work done to the chassis. I was wanting to confirm this but also get an idea of the cost and parts needed for such an endeavor. I'm not worried if it costs me a few thousand, I just want to do something unique yet looking very much sleeper. Can anyone give me some ideas please?
