87 camry engine swaps? any ideas/options?
Ok yeah my 87 camry is great and all, but as of right now its just a temp till i get my honda. Instead of buying a different car to swap motors and shit, i was wonderign what kind of options i have available to swap into my 87. I dont want a V-6 either, so im lookin for 4 bangers. Any major performance enhancements i could do tothe stock 2 liter as well?
And tranny swaps-what kind of options do i have there. The auto is fun for just cruisin and eatin but im not about cruising...and eating  ...i have a suspicion one of my options is a 5 speed from a similar year celica, correct? any other tranny's that would fit?This is just brainstorming here so nothing is set in stone, but it would be nice to not have to buy a new car to mod if there are options for my current one, yah know?

Hmmmm...impatient, aren't we?
 Swapping an engine depends on your budget. You can swap in a JDM 3SGE or you can go with a 3SGTE (turbo). If you have a automatic tranny, definitely swap it for a manual. If you can't find a Camry tranny. Celica tranny will work fine. If you go with the turbo option, then you might want to find yourself either a E153 tranny (Solara) or a E52 tranny (Gen2 V6). Budget for $3000-$4000 for the engine (with wiring harness & ECU), tranny, parts, and any labor; unless you plan to do it yourself.  Good luck,
