I have spent some time on a mr2 forum and found that some of them are switching out their 5sfe for a 1mzfe. For those who don't know this is the v6 engine that has been in the camry. From what I've read, in an mr2 this swap can be done as cheaply or cheaper than a 3sgte. Weight difference is about the same between a 3sgte and 1mzfe, so bad balance isn't too much on an issue. This engine will have about 200 HP. And TRD makes a supercharger for it. It looks to me to be a pretty attractive idea for those who like the N/A powerband better than the turbo and don't like the lag. Mabey there is something I missed. Is there something thats makes this swap impossible for celicas?

Im sure this is possible. The wiring is pretty much the same on the camry.
Now, there is really no Manual tranny for the engine. So if you were to outfit this with a 3s tranny. You would end up with an EMS system. This is roughly the same price as a 3S when you are done, but I would like see this on a 6G celica. |
