Diesel?

[S2k-Takara]

How possible is it to do a swap into a gen 2 camry (1990)? Where would I find the parts?

well anything's possible with a lot of $$

I think it would be possible, but the main concern like you said would be the parts. Another thing would be: no one has done it before, if you screw up during the swap who would you ask advice from? I have only seen one diesel camry in my life (and that was on the internet lol).

why don't you try the VQ35DE. i've been wondering what it takes to get one in.

There was a diesel available in the Gen 1 Camry, but they are ultra-rare. I saw one on ebay several months ago. IF you could find one, a swap may not be out of the question. The Corolla was also available with a diesel. The one in the Camry was the same size, but it was turbocharged. Gen 2 Camrys were also available with a diesel, but I don't think any of them came to the states.

A diesel swap would be a great project, especially if you did a biodiesel conversion on it.
