95 auto 1mz project, started a list Options

[sidesh0]

hay guys, just bought my first 6gen bout a week ago, after my 87 gt-s was stolen about 6 months ago.

so now i have a 95 gt auto. decided i want to swap for the 1mz. done a lot of research and put together a list, but im still not clear on a couple things. hoping some of the badasses on 6gc can help me out.

so to start

1mzfe engine
hopefully one from a 03+ solara or sienna
with the wiring harness, ecu, intake,
solara ps pump, stock auto exhaust headers.

i know i gotta get my harness wired up, custom passenger mount and y pipe
(smaays looks beautiful by the way. definitely going to hit you up soon, if your still doing that)

but i still have a couple ?? marks over my head. and that is

will there be any problems with my stock auto trans. haha auto trans. say what you want.
but im going lsd and upgrading to handle the power. main question is, will it shift fine?? wire up just fine?

the only other questions are about obdII, and the fpr hookup,
specifically what is needed to make my 95 celica obdII. the evap system and such.
i live in cali. so smog is a must. ive heard its harder than the pre 97s,
but im curious what it really takes. cuz i really want to stay away from the sluge doomed years.

hope this interested anybody, lookin to get some help from the gurus here at 6gc.com, thanks guys.

holy crap thank you kurt, huge help!.

i really like the thought of modding the flex plates, gunna have to look into which would be easier/more reliable.

the evap sys. doesnt seem too be too scarey at all, just as long as the ecu likes it. ie: check engine light.

and just to be clear if i used a pre 97 ecu with that lower intake hybrid, i could skip the fpr and evap.
or would that be defeating the purpose of getting the newer motor? guess im asking does the 97+ ecu=the increased hp, or the upper intake and other components?

thank you very much for the help. this is looking more and more possible every day. an yes i absolutely plan on getting ahold or mr220v for my harness, you think he'd be up for answering some ?s about the compatibility of my stock auto trans and the ecu?
