hi guys

ive got a jdm 3sge celica and i have just bought a gen5 gt4 very very cheap the car is a shed but the engine is sweeeeeet as a nut! so im gona put the 3sgte in to mine!

i just wana know how hard it is? is there much work involved? ecu,wiring etc

cheers in advance

Your more then a year registered and still have to ask a question like that?
Engine bolts into the car just fine. Only things need to be done is FMIC, fuel pump and the wiring of the 5th-> your 6th gen and your good to go.

sweet i didnt think it would be that hard to do!

it doesnt hurt to make sure

thanks bud

FMIC is not necessary!
I've done the same swap just a few months ago. Instead of the a/a ic setup, I've made it w/a using a waterpump from an ST205.
If you are planning to tune it up, than you could look for FMIC.
Don't think it's an easy swap. Just because the engine bolts right in doesn't mean it's an easy job if you've never done it before Are you planning to do the swap yourself?

Sourcing ST205 parts in the US is not really easy. Intercoolers+piping however are much easier to find/buy.

yeah im gona do it ive done a similar kind of swap before in a different car! i just wanted to make sure i knew everything there is to know before i start the swap!

i will go for the fmic like the look of having a front mount in my bumper

im planning on making some upgrades on the engine anyway so the fmic will probs be best!

Dr.Tweaks wiring service might suit you here. you could email him and see exactly needs to be done. I had him do my wiring harness and haven't had any problems, it makes the swap less troublesome. http://www.phoenixtuning.com/services.html
Hope that helps with the wiring aspect.
