Evap family EV-E; MP1/EGR/02S/TWC-74323/3SFE

I need to know if these two motors can be swapped; if so, are there any problems in doing it - like electrical wiring harness, computer flywheel match.
Can anyone help?

i dont think its that hard because now these days ive notice and ive eseen a coupe of my buddies do the swap. people usually do the 3sgte wit lsd tranny swap but one of my buddies has the 3sgte but wit the 5sfe swap. i ask if it was hard for my buddies but they said it wasnt that hard. it was pretty much the same. took some hard and good time when they did it.

why go from a slow motor to a SLLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW motor?

notice the 3SFE? I wouldn't do it unless it was a 3SGE.

Your going from a slow economy engine to a smaller, slower economy engine...
Unless you have to, dont.

mmmm maybe he wants to put a jdm 3sfe o.0 though with that money rather put in a 3sge lol.

there was a member a few months back with a 3sfe when i talked to him in person says he got a kick out of it. but has bad idle problems according to him it was his intake manifold since it was from the 5sfe.

mm anyways the 3sfe and 5sfe have different mounting bolts holes
you may run a little rich though if you don't switch the ecu.
trannies should bolt up.
maybe a little wiring changes.

i tried contacting the previous 3sfe owner but he hasn't responded think he sold the car to someone else..
