The Camry is a 3VZ-FE not a 3VZ-E and has 4 valve heads. Since the heads are different, your intake won't fit. The camry intake won't work as it points the throttle body right at the firewall. There are some people attempting to make a hybrid of the two using the 3VZE block and pistons, heads from the 3VZFE, and the intake from the 5VZ. I think the block is different as it mounts traversly so there may be motor mount/tranny bolt pattern issues or they would have just done a swap instead of using the truck block.
For 1600, you should be able to rebuild your engine and start fresh. I can buy a fresh long block for that much here in CA and it's typically much more expensive here than anywhere else in the country.
A 5VZ will swap in, but isn't exactly a straight bolt in affair.
At local yards here, the 3VZ goes for around 1K to 1.2K
The 22R is totally different and requires a different tranny.
