EDIT: 8/22/09
Ok guys before commenting just know my goal is 330 hp until all 2 stages is complete.. so keep that in mind when reading my setup: 95 toyota celica GT ST205 3sgte swap GT tranny and axles Stage 3 clutch kit and flywheel(deciding between 2 I like) EDIT: ST205 fuel pump 3 inch exhaust(already installed) ST205 downpipe Now in order to move on to stage 3 I need to figure out which engine I want.. parts for the 185(non RC) I have found to be relatively easy in case something breaks.. alot of sites have parts for the engine.. but it turns out the 185 wiring is harder than the 205.. im leaning towards the 205.. although i think finding parts for the engine is harder.. the swap should be a bit easier and at stock I would be right at my goal which is 250 hp running stock... i know for a fact there wont be an urge to raise booast levels since stage 2(AWD Conversion) of my swap would not be completed.. and this is my only car which i use for work and not for racing intentions.. 4 now.. lol so basically I got 2 questions that have been killing me for a while now.. axles.. is it possible to mix and match GT tranny with 3sge axles.. if so that would be a delight but I highly doubt you can.. but im asking for clarification.. and 2.. what engine do you guys think I should go with.. 185 or 205?

You need to make sure that the blue wire you are connecting to the battery is the one that goes to one the 3 "interior" plugs that connect above the ecu. Hook it up to the battery, but dont start the car. You should be able to hear the fuel pump come on, and hear fuel running through the rail and feel it through the send/return lines.
After that, you have to make sure that your map sensor is plugged in and hooked up to a vac line, along with your air temp sensor in the intake. Then make sure the igniter is connected and bolted to the firewall (it gets its ground that way) and check that the harness plug is hooked up to the back of the distributor. Oh and your fuel injector resistor pack (looks like a big heat sink) needs to be plugged in. If the car is still acting funny, jump the diagnostic box with a paper clip connecting the te and e1 terminals. Turn your key to the on position and count the blinking lights. There is also a intake manifold ground wire that people normally miss. Its part of your engine harness and you have to get under the car and bolt it to the back of the intake manifold with a 12 or 14mm bolt. omg 3rd gen, wrc!... heh, its all the same sh1t.
