Which Celica Engine are you talking about? And to answe your question, it is kinda broad but if you have the money and time anything is possible.

Re: Celica engine swap to camry????
It will not be a complete drop in, but the swap is pratical and defintely doable.
But if you ask me, I forget is the 3-G Cams come with the 5SFE or not, but if it does and he already have the 5S in there supercharge or turbo it, or swap a 5S in there and then super or tubo it, that was the next 4cyl to go into the Cam from atleast 94 up until the 5-G Cam.
Also he can swap in the 1MZ V6 and either twin turbo it or Superchage it.

92 Camry has the 3VZ-FE engine.
This engine has been turbocharged before.

If your friend swaps in the 3S-GTE, his car must be a 5-speed manual in order to complete the swap. If not, then he will need a front clip (engine, tranny, ECU, harness).
The automatic Camry tranny will not work with the 3S-GTE. Even if it did, it will not hold the power.

Re: Celica engine swap to camry????
There's a guy in Toyotanation ( www.toyotanation.com) named Levarg that turbocharged his 3VZ-FE Camry. From my discussion with him, his budget was approx $3500. Check out the site and send him a PM, he's really cool.
