Will a st215 3sgte fit in an mr2

I'm looking at buying a st215 3sgte from a Caldina for my mr2 I am just wanting to know if the motor will fit with little to no modifications to the mounts. I know it seems like a stupid question I just want to double check to make sure I'm not wasting my money. Cheers

    Not only will it fit, it is the defacto mod outside of the 2gr and k swap.

    Can google 4th gen 3sgte MR2 swap for endless resources.

    In terms of mounts: 3 of the mounts are on the gearbox so no issue. The engine mount on the RHS bolts on. The hook near the compressor needs some grinding to fit. If you can't find what you need on the net in a week message me and I'll take some pics for you (I'm doing a gen 4 swap mysf at home and can send you pics once I get back to WA)

    The only problems being that if you dont currently have a turbo model, you ideally want to fit the turbo gearbox and associated driveshafts. Also theres more fiddling around with wiring etc
