The Toyota 1MZ-FE 3.0 litre engine is a strong engine with good stock performance readings. In the Australian Camry's you can reach the quater mile in no more than 16.2 seconds. Better than the dull 5S-FE 2.2 litre @ 17.5 seconds with manual transmission in our Celica's.
 These specs are for the Australian Delivered Camry! Engine Code 1MZ-FE Engine Size 2995cc (3.0L) Engine Configuration V6 CAM Double Overhead Cam Engine Cycle 4 Stroke Fuel Type Petrol - Unleaded Power 141kW @ 5200rpm Torque 279Nm @ 4400rpm Acceleration 0-100Km/h 8.8 secs Celica ST204 0-100km/h 10.1sec Method of Delivery Electronic Sequential Fuel Delivery Multi-Point Injected Induction Naturally Aspirated Wheel Base 2670mm Kerb Weight 1425kg The camry weighs in @ 1425kg and the Celica weighs in @ 1200kg so with this engine producing 141 kw and launching a #$%%^ Camry to 100km/h in 8.8sec imagine the races and the faith I would have in my celica when the the light turns GREEN! Really don't know what TOYOTA was thinking when they issued our Celica's with a slow and crappy 2.2 litre 5S-FE.  If you know anyone or if you have thought of a 3.0 liter enginge swap please write back. Is it a feasible swap? And is it worthwhile?.JuzStyle |

There is someone on celica.net who has swapped the v6 into a 5th gen. here is the thread about his install:
http://celica.net/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?u...c;f=31;t=004637 It would fit in a 6th gen, although it would be very tight. You most likely would have to put in a stronger tranny. It would likely not be too much more work than a 3sgte swap with a tranny swap. The engine is the same weight as a 3sgte. Now for the fun part. There is a trd supercharger available for that engine  You can do pulley upgrades and get some good power out of that engine... If you want to be different and like displacement, this would be a good project, however it is not the most economical/easiest way to get more power... |
