I think its crap... some lame guy throwing in another engine instead of putting hard work to making an actual "camry" engine more efficient... i think its the poor sports way around a faster camry... if you want an "interesting" camry... view zoni, or tonys'... thats pure camry power.

that would be the 3SGTE wouldnt it. There are several of those here in the states. NOt sure about the all trac setup though. That is some serious fabrication time and money.

JMSinMD · 12-14-2005, 10:40 PM

While I think Tony, JoeB and Rizal have done great things to their cars I think the 3S-GTE swap like SweetEgyptian, Wraith, etc is unbelievable as well. Our cars are hard enough to find parts for, imagine the world of opportunities in the 3S-GTE. Jon. p.s. after posting pics of a huge 747 wing and vtec stickers make sure to throw the term 'lame' around VERY lightly

***DAMON*** · 12-14-2005, 10:48 PM

repost... but i dunno, its still a camry with a toyota engine, I dont see whats wrong with that. very respectable work nonetheless, sleeper no doubt

You sir are a moron. That "Lame guy" will put buslengths on whatever slow pile of crap you drive and he has more aftermarket options than you can dream of. The 3SGTE is arguably one of the best four bangers ever produced, right up there with the nissan SR20DET and the mitsubishi 4G63. What that guy has done is not only produce a clean and by the way extremely quick Camry but take some of the best that toyota has to offer and put together a very unique ride. But I wouldnt expect you to understand this, I would talk of and boost and high horsepower potentials but you would just look at me and go on about your new wing, vtec stickers, or whatever other ricy mod you may be considering next. Liek it or leave it , this "Lame" guy will always run faster times than you in your Camry. Mabe you want to be like in Fast and Furious and continue to post dumb uneducated comments relating to people who do real power mods. Sorry I guess I missed the memo about how its cool to be slow nowadays. Why dont you try a bigger park bench on your trunk or more vinyl, mabe that will boost your performance.

I enjoy doing up my car visually, and don't mind how well it goes. It goes great for what it is, and aren't interested at the moment in doing hi power/hi cost mods. Does this make me a "moron" as well??

chronoti · 12-15-2005, 12:31 AM

so what about wrath 1st engine wasnt that a 3s-gte? then he blew that and went with a 5s-gte?

it's still a toyota engine be it a 3s with a TMIC!!!!!!

HoboJoe · 12-15-2005, 12:31 AM

No Jetspeed, your camry is too awesome to call you a moron.

***Razo-E*** · 12-15-2005, 12:38 AM

to everyone argueing, shut up...

you're all still FWD..

im kidding..

im a GIGANTIC fan of stock looking sleepers and really really really like this camry..

anyone that doesnt like it, is ignorant on the subject..

p.s. stock engine is 5sfe, which was 1st used in celicas and MR2s..

that means the Camry has an MR2/Celica engine..

the 3sgte was also a Celica/MR2 engine..

think about THAT for a sec..

***ModifierMR*** · 12-15-2005, 12:41 AM

I like it. Looks like the engine actually "Uses" the hood scoop for scooping air.

And Razo in noy FWD... I got a 1990 Toyota Camry ALL-Trac AWD

along with my FWD Gen5

No your car looks good, I sorta blew up there earlier sorry I was in a bad mood. You should do with your car what you like not what others tell you. If you like how it looks then by all means its you car...

05Cam-Weasel · 12-15-2005, 02:46 AM

def. the ultimate sleeper but im not a big fan of the hood scoop

cuttooth · 12-15-2005, 08:54 AM

personally dont like the scoop either...but luv what he did to make his cam a sleeper
