USA What Can i do

So basically i don't have a clue of what i can do to my 99' Avalon (engine wise) just because most parts are made for like eclipses, civics etc. Does anyone know where i can buy engine parts for a 99' avalon and if so, what all can i do to the engine?

Here is a website to check out what other avy owners have done.
http://www.cardomain.com/MakeModel/Toyota/Avalon

Check out e-bay what is on sale and head to the original manufacturer for availablility.

Its a bit tough, but as they say "Where there is a will, there is a way"

The Avalon is basically a Camry. Visit the Camry site and do a little searching.

Basically the Avalon engine, auto transmission, brakes, are the same as the Camry with V6 option package. The 4-cylinder Camry has different brakes, front springs, trans and a few other things. The frames are the same for all cars. The Avalon’s trim and interior may be different. It may have come with a standard theft prevention system, ECU, the wiring might be a little different. Might have an improved ABS system.

A good way to tell if the cars use the same part is to go to a site like www.rockauto.com and compare part numbers. V6 Camry and Avalon.
