3S-FE -> 5S-FE...? Wed, 31 August 2005 05:42 Go to previous message
hey! I was just wondering...I guess a bit about my car...it's a 1991 Toyota Celica with a 3S-FE in it...and I was considering putting a 5S-FE in it I guess basically just to be able to muck around with trying to put an engine into a car and what not...just seeing how it's done and all, so maybe at a later stage I can muck around with putting more potent engines in my car...but anyway...

I was just wondering like...because I fully have NO idea...like...I'm just firstly wondering whether it's worth it...? I guess compared to getting a mechanic to do it...like...I've heard it is, as it's mostly just labour to get engine's in and out...? and I guess I'm also then wondering how would I go about doing it...? Like...would I need any new or extra parts, or is it basically just getting my hands on an engine crane and some spanners and reading a ST184 manual...?

Also, is there any difference if the engine comes from a camry rather than a celica...? Or if it's auto rather than manual, which mine is...? and just out of interest, anyone know anything about jap spec 5S-FEs...?

Yeah...hopefully someone can help me with all this...thanks!
