Not going to be easy/straight forwards they may both be RAV4 but are totally different platforms / engines,

  • a 97 Rav4 is generation 1 1994-1999 using either a 3SFE OR 3SGE 2.0 4 cylinder engine 
  • a 2002 is generation 2 2000-2005 using either 1ZZFE 1.8, 1AZFE 2.0 OR 2AZFE 2.4 4 Cylinder VVTi engine

nothing will be plug and play and will require considerable adaption to make it fit/work
