i'd say you'd have to get different engine mounts to fit the 3sge in.

But what is your aim for engine transplant?

Are you going to keep the 3sge NA? or will ur turbocharge it?

If you will leave it NA might as well spend the money on the TTE s/c or custom turbo for the 1gfe. You can get the same power if not more than the 3sge 210ps.

Or why not get a 3sgte engine instead or 2jzgte?

Why not sell the IS200 and buy an Altezza........

what if i plan to go for the TRD kit for Altezza? NA tune with crazy 10 thousand RPM and produce a power of 198kWi270psj
