I can do that swap for you. I just swapped a 2ZZGE into a '98 Corolla for a guy that lives in CT. I can also source that engine for you out of Montreal without a problem.

The engine should run about $1500. The labor for the swap will be around $800. You can't convert it to AWD, it would actually be cheaper to import a GT4.

You can either use your stock tranny, or use a Camry V6 tranny which is stronger, along with the MR2 Turbo tranny, but that needs to be modified a little.

Being that he has a '95, I was assuming that he wanted a 6th gen GT-4.

I was posting what I found on a few clicks, but those were available also. Just none on Autotrader ATM. Just saying you don't have to import one, they were sold here.

Would you like to bet? I'll lay a $50 on the table, payable by Paypal.

My bad, Just looked it up that 93 was the last us year. What about canada? Were they available there? Personally I'd rather have a 93 anyway.
