3VZ to 1MZ swap

I have a donor '99 Lexus es300 with 1mz VVT engine. Does anybody know if engine subframe will fit 1993 3vz engine?

I am planning to swap everything(ECU, wires, engine subframe with engine and tranny), but I need to know if subframe is the same on 1999 and 1993 on the body side.

Have anybody swapped engine subframe from '99 or '94 to '93.

I think they do, but I'm not positive. I would just try it, then if it doesn't fit, it won't be too much more work to move the new engine/tranny to the old subframe.

I also remember a post about the vehicle speed sensors being different, so the speedometer won't work with the new ECU without changing the sensor, then it'll work but it won't read the correct speed.

They fit. I took a 98 camry and jammed it into my 92 camry. Everything matched up physically. The wiring on the other hand will be a different story.
