I am going to do this swap once I get the money. I am looking to see how much its gonna cost so I can set up my budget. I've searched and founf nothing but links to JDM clips. Im looking for a place that sells USDM clips. Any help is appreciated

Thanks
Jeremy

Oh yeah, if anyone knows of a camry/ solara site like this, that would be very helpful too.

Jeremy the reason that there are "clips" at all is because U.S. regulations require the cars to be cut in half before they are imported. If you are looking for a USDM camry engine & tranny, you will have three options: (1) junkyard, (2) Toyota, (3) private party with either car or wreck. You will not find a USDM "clip"

If it were me, I would look at car-part.com

i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this.

what year V6 Camry / Solara?

You can always check Tap Recycling in Sacramento. They are good people and have everything you need. I've got a few things from them, and have no regrets. Give them a call and let them know what you need.

easy

USE A SOLARA V6 CASE !!!!!!!!!!! LOL

TO convert a mr2 case to fwd all you need is V6 tranny rear shift linkage assm and v6 gear selector shaft ..

it take 10 mintues to convert with parts..

with mine it looks oem and you have no hole in front side ..
