oh ok so realistically i should just get a full swap 3rd gen 3sgte from a mr2 and just get the hood from a gt4 and just get it to the hp i want . can the trans from a mr2 hold out to about 450 hp though or would i need a better transmission . i got about 13grand to get my celica and get it set up to the way i want so thats why i wasthinking about a gt4 awd set up cause i always wanted a awd celica this will be my 4th celica in all biggrin.gif wink.gif

Best awd swap thus far.

But anywho if not, why waste your time buying an MR2 clip and then the gt4 front end parts? Not only do you have to deal with reconfigging the engine and harness, but with the gt4 front clip, you get everything you seem to want (hood, bumper, etc..)
