i am possibly picking up a 97 camry. i have been trying to research aftermarket bolt ons for it. i can't find anything. anyone have a "one stop shop" website for me to check out?

there is TRD supercharger available, but it's been discontinued and pretty hard to come by nowadays

There isn't really a one stop shop that I've found. Generally you can find various parts just searching around the internet for them.
There is a TRD exhaust that sounds pretty good that's basically just a bolt on part.
There are plenty of different cold air intakes for it as well.

Is the Camry you're getting a 4 cyl or V6?

its a 2.2 4 cyl. automatic. i know, i know. its not really worthy of "modding" up. especially since its that ugly hunter green color. but its probably gonna be a daily driver and i want it to be somewhat "surprising" if i have to get into it. lol anywho if anyone has any ideas of what can be done to it and what is recommended to be the best for it. I am coming from having a honda civic Si and its not so hard to get parts for that. So i am fairly new to this toyota stuff. any help and input is appreciated.

Same idea as modding the Civic you had. Just do some research for the parts that you're interested in. I'd start out with a basic suspension setup (springs/struts/RSB) then go on from there. Not much you can do in terms of power since you have the auto i4, unless you're willing to spend a lot of money for something like that.

congrats on the soon to be new purchase. but there are virtually NO bolt ons for your model. cat backs and thats about it. the rest is suspension and visual mods. youll find that it is the polar opposite to the si as far as performance options goes.

04rollaS · 03-15-2009, 08:43 PM

i hear you on the performance mods. and thnx for the congrats. i got my wife an 04 corolla s and id rather be doing stuff to that, but she won't let me. lol oh well. like i said, im not trying to make it a super performance car. i just want like intake, header, exhaust and maybe cams or something. somewhat sleeper / grocery getter. maybe do pistons and rods or something. easy shit ya know?

ONE_to_HATE · 03-15-2009, 09:16 PM

even "easy shit" will get you nowhere cuz the heads are built for economy and lacks flow in the design.. ur sooo gonna cry. ROFL- wait it out for an ugly v6 one.. u'll be plenty happier and welcome!

Theres OBX headers, aem cai, and greddy evo2 catback. All of these can be purchase in ebay. =D Btw welcome. =)

Might as well change out the tubes for colored ones too while you're at it... Maybe slap a carbon fiber hood on too for kicks...
