I'm not sure if this question was asked yet or not, But is there enough room in the celica engine bay to swap in a camry V6? The V6 has a lot more parts available for it (in the U.S. atleast) than the 3s-gte, and being a bigger engine seems like it would have more potential. But beyond the debate, could it work?

It can work, but it'll be all custom ****. Too much hassel. It does have more potential if you go forced induction...but if not, 3sgte has far more potential. Either way, the V6 is too tall for our engine compartments (I just went out and made an estimate).
For the money involved, swap a 3sgte, build it for more boost, and boost it to ****. =] |
