swaping the 5sfe to the 1mz

[92_darkshad]

new to this
but i was wondering would the 1mz v6 from say the first gen avalon fit in my 1992 camry with a five speed trans and if not what would i need to make it fit in there
thanx

yeah it'll fit. just figure out your budget, then double it. =)

since you already have a doner car it would actually be fairly easy, the actually swap that is. the big question is wether you can use the avalon's ecu and engine harness. i dotn think you could so id be willing to bet youd have to snatch one from a 1mz camry.

yes it can but a donor car would be very helpful and as for the engine harness they would swap over alsoit's straight forward. i've done the v6 conversion before
(i say conversion cause i used the entire donor car)

thanx guys
so besides the harness and ecu
it should bolt right up to my trans if i just get th engine and all

as long as teh tranny is a e153 or e53 then yes. if its your 5sfe's manual...then no.

[92_darkshad]

do you knoe where i can find the E153 or E53 trans i want to keep i in a manual trans and all

[2wickedtoyz]
