not really, youd be better off using some form of 4ag.

89 celica... sounds like a S series motor. Never came in a rwd car (except the altezza), so making fiting one in a rwd car requires a lot of custom work. There is a reason you don't see many 3sgte powered ae86's - If it was a simple swap they would be everywhere.

Basicly that engine is worthless for a ae86.
