you need to hit the FI forum on www.celicatech.com
they have all the info you need to do the swap in a 5th gen celica there. its actually very straight forward if you have a GT, and wiring is very minimal. -------------------- Former Team 5SFTE pro member ;)

Stock gt-gts 5SFE Stock alltrac- 3SGTE you can do the swap. All you need is a full longblock with ECU and harness. The point of concern here is the strength of the 5S tranny. You will need to look into getting an MR2 TURBO tranny and modifying the driveshafts from the MR2 to fit the GTS. If you don't want to do the trans work, the stock 5S tranny should hold up IF you don't get too boost happy. (so yea you'll be looking for a new tranny soon after the swap.  )-------------------- ~bloodMoney

Correction... In Kansas there's no places that know anything about jap cars.
Luckily you live in the city with the only running FWD auto shifted 3SGTE. I just happen to own it. PM your phone number to me and I'll give you a call. Later, Justin --------------------  Project ST204.5 99.88946% complete... |
