How about something old school? Like a Datsun 510 if you can find one.

I think this would be ridiculously awesome.

I always see Hayabusa and Honda B and K-series swapped minis... never seen a Toyota-powered one.

A 3S-GTE swapped xA would be sweet too, but I don't think you'd be able to fit it without serious modification to the framerails.

buy JDMwills shell, and someone on club4ag is selling all the mounts for the tranny engine, plus goodies such as a dry sump and apexi ecu for dirt cheap, you would have a sick nasty car for very little scratch!

mmmm swap a 510, that would be bangin' or an early 70's corolla, if you can find a shell!

Swapping one into an AE86 would be awesome. I don't think I've one of those cars with that much power, or at least not on the street

What year 3SGTE?

For it to drop easily you'd need to find a Toyota with an S-series motor in it. These came in Camrys, Celicas, MR2s, Altezzas, Rav4, Solara...

Other than that you'll need to do more than just drop it in and wire it up
