*cough cough* :hi:

LE-Sport is the SE for Canada. and it was possible to get XLE/LE trim with the 5mt, you would just have to have to special-ordered it.

The more you know :)



Canada got the LE SPORT 5-speed for 92-93. There was no SE trim. OP, check the FAQ for the free power mod, then move to suspension. Maybe wheels. Then TURBOOOO. PS- I'm jealous as hell of your car. It's EXACTLY what I want.


The CAI doesn't add any power. Just noise.
+1

I got an SRI, doesn't do anything but sounds badass :D



PM me if you have any questions on modding this thing, and welcome to the 5-speed V6 club :thumbsup:

one of the more i guess cheaper mods that you can hear the difference and see it too is cold air intake.
if youd rather save the cash to put it towards more exterior body work (bodykit, hid, rims, etc) then dont.

i need to do interior body work but im restoring it rather than replacing it so its a lot of item research and itll be a lot of small sample test trial til you find what you want.
im also getting a weapon-r dragon cold air intake.
i have another 2000 miles before ill be back in a shop for scheduled maintenance, so i have 2000 miles to get eibach camber bolts and springs, maybe a sway bar? maybe even new struts. my car pulls to the right and i hate it so ill definitely be working on alignment, suspension etc

Have fun that should be a pretty neat project. You can do a cheap home made CAI to save on money. Not too tough either although Ive never done a 3vz. Its probably the same as the other Camrys. Pull out the driver side inner fender liner. unscrew all the un-necessary black tubing and pipes Then just get a piece of flexible tube (looks kinda like a bendy straw) from your local auto parts store. Run the tube to a hole in the front bumper and Voila you have a CAI for less than $20. Then just sit back and enjoy the new throaty sound. :D
