update: Rayme HID/Projector retrofit done, parked for the winter, no dyno this year sorry, I have been very busy working.

coming during winter: adding camry V6 torque damper to motor mounts, aeromotive FPR, tein springs, EHPS retrofit, new rims/tires.

this thread is really old and should rest in the archives, I will start a new one when I have some major updates.


Canadian dollar FTW


wwoooaw, were do you get all your ideas from!!
your ride is awesome, but i think it deserves a custome bodykit so it will be perfect

illneversellmyceli:
There are piston/rods cams, valves, springs, oil pumps, exhaust flanges, flywheels, clutches, the list goes on. Focus your attention to the MR2 V6 forums. 3/4 of these parts are interchanged from other motors. I doubt you will find 3MZFE named parts.
Just as an example, I'm using a Findanza solara V6 manual flywheel, K&N matrix intake.

A lot of stuff is universal, like standalone computers, turbos and bits, superchargers, exhaust parts. A wide variety of injectors also fit. The possibilities are endless, you just need to know exactly what you need and find it. Building a FI setup would be a piece of cake... (expensive cake)

Building up a V6 is not for the bolt on crowd. Much knowledge and skill is required. Sounds hard but keep in mind before this I never put a wrench to a motor before (aside from changing oil, spark plugs and an alternator). Everything I know now is 98% because of this swap. I did my homework, a lot of it. Anyone can do it, except maybe the dumbas-s that royally screwed up snapshot's V6.

joehernandez:
I'm a creative person and I'm easily influenced by crazy ideas as long as it has purpose. I'm very fussy when it comes to exotic looks, I find most body kits don't fit the car 99% of the time. I'm looking at putting the GT4 front end because I haven't seen anything that fits the 6gc better... yet. Perfect? It will never be perfect smile.gif

I haven't got around to making the strut bar yet. I had to focus my attention to other things.

Anyone done this while wiring in an EMS? I have an autronic that I've had for years that I want to put on this when I install mine. About to sell my nearly complete Gen III 3s that I don't have the money to buy the afermarket turbo and turbo components for. Then I'll start buying the engine and trans stuff after that. Anyone ran an EMS on this though?

I don't know though, I'm kindof on the fence about running it with the SM4. I know that it will absorb tons of time just making the harness for the car. I kinda want to get my car finished as soon as I can. If the autronic way is easier than the stock ecu+rewire then I'll choose that, if not then I'll just hold on to it and do it later. How extensive is the rewire?
