I have a project planned for my celica and I just had some questions for you guys.

I will be going for a Fwd to Rwd conversion so I wanted to know which 3sgte is more suitable for the swap?
I believe both (mr2's and celica's) 3sgte are trans. mounted? So is there one of them that would be easyer to fit to a Rwd tranny?

Also if you guys could come up to me with some parts I would have to change (and from which car I could take these from if possible) and stuff I would need to do I would appreciate it.

I know I would have to get these:
-Drive shaft
-Differential
-Probably change the whole rear suspention parts
-Rwd tranny

That's what's on the top of my head but I surely forget many things.
Don't worry, I will not get into this before I will have enough knowledge. I will soon study in car mecanic before I begin all this.

Thanks for your help!

I didn't say you did. I'm just saying that most people who want to do this get in over their heads and then start looking for easier ways to do it. When they get the idea, they don't realize that they're going to be doing an amazing amount of custom work to make it happen.

I would really like to see it done, and if you decide to do it, then I wish you all the best. I just know that this is absolutely not for the average shade tree mechanic, and is most likely a daunting task for even the experienced builder.
