bought jap 3SGE for $1250 w/ gear box. its a jap import, thought oh yeah bolt straight in. LMFAO, how wrong was i?. after changing the throttle body, exhaust manifold, starter and alternator (coz they just cut the wires instead of unpluging the clips), i swapped over the power steering pump (and broke the bottom plastic bit with 2 vacuum lines coming off it, if anyone has one PLEASE pm me),then came a.c pump. finally got the engine back in. started at 8AM, went home at 6.30. and i still have to put the c/v's, and radiator in, and connect some wires and some other little things, but damn, took me and the mechanic a day and a bit. o well. "they never just bolt straight in" -barky.
