Hello I'm in the process of rebuilding the 1mz motor off a 1999 solara for my celica project and I was looking to replace the cams with 3mz cams and I was wondering if this would make a difference? I have herd 2mz cams work but I'm not sure what model Toyota that engine is in.
Thanks for your info and happy new year 2016!!! -------------------- |

Wikipedia can tell you a lot about what models have what engines. The 3MZ is a VVT engine so I'm not sure the cams will run correctly in a non VVT engine...?
