Yes.
The search button and the Stickys in the Forced Induction area are all you need to read. good luck with your project.

Yes. You don't use the 4wd tranny, you swap a fwd tranny on there. MANY members have done this 3sgte swap, look at itchy for example...
+1 on the search button comment. Good luck. -------------------- Past: V6 Swapped 6G Celica, E46 BMW M3, Jeep Wrangler TJ

Second Step : What model do you have ST(like me) or a GT.
IF you have a GT its a little easier for you guys. The 5sfe Tranny bolts right up to the 3sgte engine. Most people will bash the 5s tranny saying it wont hold the power. We have a few guys running the 5s tranny with no problems. Other options: E-153 MR2 turbo tranny with LSD 1mzfe tranny found on Solaras 3sge tranny found on a number of Toyotas check out this thread, their are tons other too http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=28825 --------------------  |
