Artsy Pics/misc: 1992 Camry V6 LE - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

This '92 Gen3 belongs to a friend of mine and TN member, Alex187. Met up with other friends last Saturday and did some cleaning/picture taking... so here goes:

Wheels before... dust

Wheels after..

During the clean/etc, I was tasked with plug inspection and cleaning the throttle body... TB is now perfectly clean, and this 3VZ probably needs new valve cover gaskets (oil on the top of plugs). As well, we discovered two rips in the accordion tube between the AFM and throttle body - a little duct tape and she was good to go. There was a hesitation problem just off-idle, all now fixed.

Also installed last week were front clear turn signals and new taillights with clear turn signal sections. The following pics were taken by another friend - I used my film SLR camera, still waiting on developing. Will post those eventually.

A picture of yours truly taking a picture - inspiration from Mike (whit3ch0c0late) and this pic

my idea: dumpster shot!

night shots, I took these

For the 320,000km (200,000mi), still a very solid Camry.

DEEEEEEEEEEP pics man. Thanks for all the help Jerry and everybody else (lurking...). Can't wait to see the SLR pics.

Too bad we didn't take pics with the po-po.

In the gauge shot - the only reason the 'door open' light was on was because one of you fools opened the door while I was taking the pic when the cop cruiser showed up.

dna59: the pictures are in .png format. :\

wow thats a lot of miles on your car! Very clean... how do you manage to keep the rust away?

The 3rd gen Camry has to be one of the greatest cars ever made.

And wait, if it's a V6, it has the 1MZ doesn't it?

1992-1993 received the iron-block 3VZ-FE, it wasn't until 1994 that Camry (and ES300) saw the all-aluminum, direct-ignition 1MZ...

I have more pics from my film camera done, I'll be getting a scanner shortly...

Did not know that. The 3VZ was the engine in the gen 2 Camry V6, right?

v6kamree · 08-11-2006, 10:16 PM

in aust all the gen 3 came with the 3vz unlike the US which bought them in earlier and the 1mz came in for the gen 4 in aust. And the gen 2 came with the 2vz for the v6 all over the world as far i knew, plz correct me if im wrong

repinS · 08-13-2006, 10:42 AM

Yeah, the Gen2 got the 2.5L 2VZ-FE.
