1mz fe VVTI V6 into Celica Options

[Rooster92]

Howdy yall, i got a 94 ST and im looking to put a new motor into it, i was one with VVTI, and was thinking about the 1mz with VVTI, and thoughts on this if it will be a easy swap? I can fabricate most small things i need, mounts ect. Any feedback is appreciated.

V6 has been pretty cheap to me I got all the parts together for maybe 2900 or so maybe more. I'm really low-balling the spending because I still need to pay for the tranny however there is other members that got all the parts for 1900 more or less. I guess it just depends on the place your buying them from and how much do you know about what your buying and doing. the more you know works in your advantage so do your research and get the right parts for a good price. I'm still not done with my car but hopefully soon and I will build a page of every expense and also show the project and progress alright I hope you make up your mine and whatever you decide at the end of the day it is your choice and if you want horsepower I go for the 1mzfe but since I live in California smog regulations didn't allow the swap for a 3sgte so I'm doing a 1mzfe and like that I can legally smog my vehicle and do what normal people do with there cars lol

If your planing on installing a turbo I'm sure its possible but I'm not sure how much space you will have to play around in your engine bay. I've seen one celica what the v6 swap and it looks like there is pretty good space however to think about it there might be a few problems with the exhaust manifold and that space there. I would research if I was you. There is the supercharge that can be installed? but the turbo sounds like a much better idea.

good luck I hope you make a good choice =)
