I'm thinking of swapping the 1MZFE V-6 from a Camry including the auto into my new Celica. Call it the V-Celica. I'll keep it auto since it's going to be my wife's car and she wants auto, plus it's unique that way.

Is it auto or manual, and do you want to use the GT tranny (cheaper) or the E153 (stronger)? And I assume you want the 1MZFE?
(ST 5spd is wat i have) wat ever tranny will hold a supachaga  |

(ST 5spd is wat i have) wat ever tranny will hold a supachaga [right][snapback]336453[/snapback][/right] Okay well you're going to want an E153 then. At least you don't need the auto/manual conversion. I'm pretty certain that we can score a decent 1MZFE for around $600, installation will be $900, the tranny with the axles and mounts and other BS will probably be close to another $1000, add another $1000 for the odds and ends... $3500... dang, that's a pretty good price! It's because the 1MZ is easier to get and there's no intercooler stuff to deal with. The tricky part of it will be... a. finding a 5-speed 1MZ or b. making an auto 1MZ ECU happy with no auto tranny attached to it (doable)
