Trany upgrade

[mike7869]

I have a 95 camry with a 5sfe, i was wondering if i could put in a 99 trany for the same engine, or even a 2000. Will the trany be the same for that engine no matter the year?

yes, it will work....BUT...there is no point, unless there's something wrong with your current tranny

the new ones won't handle any more power, or be any more performance oriented than yours already is (or, really...isn't)

[mike7869]

no i am on my second trans, i take my car off roading, and drifting, so on.. i blew 2 holes threw my last trany. but the reason i was asking is that i can get a newer trany for about 200 with 40k.. but mine right now is down shifting to late, i mean right as i slow down to stop it jurkes a little.. and it has never done that before.

then...sure, you could....

but you'd probably be better of swapping in a 5spd for your application, and pick up a v6 current 5spd while you're at it, the e135

[mike7869]

will a v6 just drop in tho.. or do i have to cut things. i know id need a wiring harnees and all, but would the engine its self just drop in, beside exhuast and stuff... hehe giving me ideas...

[Eye8Pussies]

will it drop, in? yes....the mounting should be the same, but you will need new axles, harness, etc.

if you're serious about the swap, give user i4 to v6 swap a pm, since he's actually done it, as well as s/c'ing the 1mz while he was at it

sweet thanks for the info... oh.. one more thing i herd that rebuilding an engine with 100k or more that has a good block is betta then doing a new one.. well for bmws at least is that ture.

[Eye8Pussies]

the only differencein rebuilding is that at least you KNOW that it was done properly, whereas an engine with "low mileage" may have been beat on, or whatever....and you have no idea until you've dropped it in and started it
