OK I've been seeing different things on the internet about my question but I want to know exactly what I have to do. So when doing a 3sgte swap on a st celica I've heard some people say "all you have to do is drill 2 holes that are marked from the factory" then other people are saying that you have to plasma cut things and reweld a whole new mount on the passenger side... So whats the real answer

Whoever said anything about plasma cutting has probably never looked under the hood of a 6gc. There are two stamped spots in the passenger side of the frame that need to be drilled out for a GT motor mount, and a few other small things. The biggest thing about a S-family engine swap into an AT200 is replacing the trans, axles, and shift cables.

No sweat man, I've done a swap on an ST. Some of them gloriously enough already have holes for the engine mounts under the little black stickers. But you should pick the option that is best for you. More than a few ways to crack a nut
