So I went thru the stickies and the ere is a thread that says great info for anyone looking to swap a 4th gen 3sgte. But doesnt give me any info that Im specificly looking for, which is how much easier or harder is it to swap a 4th gen 3sgte than a 3rd gen. Is it still plug n play for a JDM celica or or is there more stuff that needs to be done, and last note does it drop right in or do modification need to be done?

3way is right. its the same exact thing as swapping in a 3rd gen, the differneces you will find will be the In routing the intercooler piping (though slightly) and in particular the wiring.

4th gen is the newer motor, spools a little quicker, however, has weaker rods, and less aftermarket support/knowledge about that motor specifically. i'd say that the 3rd and 4th gen have about 85-90% things in common.

if you plan on going big power, dont get a 4th gen. if you just want a nice quick fun to drive car, go for a 4th gen. If I could do it over again, i'd probably go 3rd gen.

You want power but have no money. That's a problem.

Cheap. Reliable. Fast. Pick two.
