v6 se engine

[05Cam-Weasel]

how much do you think i could get a v6 se 3.3L engine for used??new??i don't want to buy the entire car, just wanna swap engines...i know i'll need the engine itself and the v6 tranny...is my best bet trying to find a v6 se totalled in the back-end in a junkyard or do you know of any sites that may sell what i'm looking for...thanks for the help

go to a dealer and ask, then take off 10% for a used price, and then add 500% of the price as labour charge in finding one used.

=)

[05Cam-Weasel]

well to add in something...i also work at a toyota dealership so i could also get another 10% off of the price for the engine as well as labor

oh wow.....you do? i'd like the 3MZ too..192 HP doesn't cut it =/ 225 is a lot better.

[terrastrife]

custom headwork+cams.

1/3 the price and a lot more power =)

[Super Kaioken]

would you make your own cams or buy some high performance ones? for the 1MZ

so terra right now i have i4 camry se w/ jp performance headers, injen sri, down piping 2 1/2 inch piping, and camcon do you recommend finding another engine or should i just do alot of custom work on this engine i have at the moment the 2.4 2az-fe...and if another engine which would be the best for a 2005 camry and would i have to change out the tranny and all??

good luck with the 3mz swap....it's going to be a bit of work...though I suppose since you have teh 5sfe right now, it wouldn't really be much more work than swapping in a 1mz


but from what I can gather, swapping the 3mz in place of a 1mz isn't really worth the trouble unless you need a new engine anyway- lots of rewiring to do at the very least


and my mechanic over here in canada had one for sale with 800km on it for $1300- don't know where he got it from though

[Super Kaioken]

do you think if any of the turbo engines would fit the Gen 5?

nitrous, cheap to install (backyard afternoon) cheap to run (yes even with refils, but if you had a custom turbo etc youd be pocketing money for other various maintenence bills as well)

it depends on what youre looking for, im guessing you want a big hike in power, 25-30% or more all the time so go custom turbo route. fairly new engine, should be able to handle power levels similar to the v6 motors.

my bad...didn't see that he had a gen5....but same thing regardless...he'd still need full wire harness + engine and don't know about the gen 5 trannys...
