I recently came across a new 3rd Gen 3SGE for my GT-S. The price was right.
Now I'm sure I'm going to have a plethora of questions about the swap from now until completion, and the forums here so far are a little dry on swap information on a 3SGE... so I wanted to start this thread in hopes that one day the question(s) I ask would be of some use to new members attempting the same swap. The sale included a 3SGE from a '96 ST202 w/ 98K on it (or so I'm told); a full uncut wiring harness & 3SGE ECU. The axels were chopped off prior to shipping. The engine itself was either cleaned prior to being sold to the guy I bought it from, or it was never abused... I'm hoping for the latter.  Regardless, while its out of the engine bay I have every intention of doing some minor upgrades & major maintenance so I won't need to worry about it for a while once its installed and running.My first set of question(s): Where can I get quality parts for the 3SGE (OEM & Aftermarket) in North America? Will the axels from a 5SFE work on the 3SGE Transmission? Will the 3SGE bolt up to the 5SFE engine mounts? Will the 5SFE shift cables work with the 3SGE? Will I need a speedo from a 3SGE - or will the one I currently have work properly? (I have aftermarket tach - I'm more concerned with the km/h dial) ... that should be enough for now.

eBay, but any part available in North America I get from Lithia.
