This is my first post here (other than the intro thread).

Anyway, i own a '96 Toyota Vienta/Camry. It's dead stock at the moment

, but i plan on changing that over the next few years. I know nothing about camry's and want a few suggestions. First off, what would be the largest rim size i would be able to fit on the car ? looking at around 17-18".
Is there any bodykit makers that do an off the shelf kit ? I checked out jetspeed, no good, the only place i found was carmate.
What performance mods can be done, to gain some some more power from a 3VZ ?
I do plan on doing a single turbo set up, with a new freshly built 3VZ, so it'll cope with the added stresses of a boosted engine. Any places in Australia doing these sort of bolt on kits ?

go 19's

carmate, local bodykit shops will custom make stuff, or graft a bar off another car on.

depends on your finances. if ya looking for a mild bit of extra response and daily goodness, get a new y peice/hi flow cat, swap out that dirty old paper air filter. on ya afm, open up teh black top and spi nthe cog inside clockwise... this iwll lean out the a/f ratio making more power/response from toyotas stock rich settings(go 1-2 clicks at a time) plumb the acis valve to a thorttlebody vacuum line gives you better power under 4000rpm. you can search on any of these, and most probably find some shit ive said lol. nitrous with a wet kit for a quick 75hp.

no such thing as a 3vz kit. all custom, all illegal

I haven't picked out a particular wheel yet. But i want to get them before i lower the car. I just think that is a huge shame that no one stocks any performance bits for camry's.

There is a pretty cool kit by "carmate" for the Gen3, I say 18" with low profile tires....I have 17" rims on my 94 Camry and I love them to death but I wish I would've gotten 18's...But I am drunk as f%$# right now so I'm done...goodluck with your Camry!!!
