Anyone got info on swapping a 7th gen Celica motor into a 4th gen body?

Haven't seen one of those swaps done yet. I do think a 2zz + 6spd would be pretty awesome in an ST Coupe, though.
What 4th gen are we talking about, exactly? Depending on your answer, i'm going to "tell" you to do the swap anyways, and do a write up.
3sgte is the "easy" button if it's a GT/GTS, but the 2zzge+6spd combo is WAY lighter and intriguing to me.
For the weight of the 3sgte, I would go with a 1mz. I realize that is less peak power and whatnot but the end result will be wicked. For example, I when to a car show recently and with all the supras, lotus, and nsx, the car I liked the most was an integra with a v6 swap. It was just different.

4th gen is T16 chassis, FWD, or AWD in the case of the ST165.
Car is FWD 92GT....
Car has sentimental value to my son, he got it from a close friend that died a little too early....and it is his first car.
We blew up the original motor autocrossing it . It had 250K on the motor and the previous owner drove it 60,000 miles without changing the oil, so....go figure.
Curious if anyone has any web links or websites I can read up on concerning these Celicas....
