I really would like to swap in the 1997-2000 solara v6 engine since it has 200hp/214lbs tq. I want to know everything that I need to make the swap. I know a few things, but I am not sure on others... correct me if I am wrong. Also, on the parts, please let me know what car it should to come from (ie Celica gt or camry)
Axels- yes engine mounts- yes rear brake conversion- yes ecu- yes tranny- yes exhaust-yes sway bars-?? struts-?? radiator-?? A/C- ?? (will mine work?) cruise-?? (will mine work?) Anything else that I might need, fill me in..  Thanks for your help This post has been edited by Jeremy1210: Jul 8, 2003 - 2:46 PM |

well I'd like to do an USDM 5th gen alltrac turbo engine, but those are hard to find, Solara/ camry isn't as hard

USDM... yeah... but JDM's are pretty easy to get ahold of. Are you looking specifically for USDM due to issues with emissions? |

I'm looking for USDM b/c its easier to get new parts if something breaks. I don't want to have to deal with shipping from japan

Parts b/w a USDM ST185 and a JDM ST185 are interchangeable. |
