So I am at work, sitting around doing nothing (as usual) and I took a 99 Camry LE out for a spin. I like the look, its just the whole automatic thing that gets me...
First question would be... Could you bolt a 5 speed Celica tranny to the 5SFE engine in there?
I believe the Camry Solara had a manual as an option, but I know that's strictly a six.
If you can bolt the 5 speed Celica tranny in there, I would think that, in theory, with engine mounts being the same, you could drop in a 3SGTE...
A five speed, 3SGTE-powered Camry would be a fun little family car.
Are any of these swaps possible?
Cause I am looking for a Corolla as a daily driver and make a project out of my Civic, but if I could get a 5 speed Camry, i think I would rather have that. Hondas are easy... Toyotas, I love... Any help would be nice......
Gary, I know you have words of wisdom... You are like Wilson, from Home Improvment... always givin advice over the fence...
bang bang :shoots:
