If you have the right parts..

But I believe that the belhousing is the hardest part to get!

Yep, I had a mint condition 3S-GE but gave up on the swap, it turned out i needed bellhousing from a Celica Supra or a 6 speed trans from a SXE10...

Failed big time to source them out Confused

AS far as I know you need:

-Bellhousing from a Celica Supra (?) OR
6 Speed Tran from Altezza (SXE10 not Euro Lexus)

-But there's no engine mount swap kit available in market so you have to fabricate them, 2 out of 5 difficulty level using standard 4A-GE mounts.

-Dizzy recolocation or firewall cutting Puh

-And some more headaches figuring out some other stuff.

to make it work, you'll need almost everything custom fabricated to make it fit and alot of $$$$

not the easiest conversion out there for sure.
