Actually, I got 22mpg on my first tank - and that's with me on it CONSTANTLY. I'd like a slightly lower final drive, but it really is pretty reasonable. I think mid-20's for mileage is more realistic at this point. Don't forget that I'm 2wd.

I was the same....when I first had the faff I got about 28 MPG...but the longer you have it the more you learnt to drive it and get more from it...petrol goes down quicker...I now average about 12MPG

But its f`ing quick now

Whats worse is its so hot here at the moment I`m getting even less MPG...and the poor gt4 hates hot weather.

People put the 3sgte in lots of different toyotas, this camry being no exception. I've even seen one in a 7th gen celica.

Although, I would've thought you would've used a newer (94+) shell to put it in, it's still a nice sleeper. Didn't that car have a 3s-fe in it to begin with?

Have you seen the Fensport one??? 3sgte engine 4wd in a 7th gen pushing around 700BHP

Well, I already had the car, which is a big reason for using it as the starting platform. I really don't like the '92-'96 Camry body style and I can't afford a '97+ Camry as a second car. Besides, those cars are 500lbs+ heavier... I have A/C, a decent stereo, decent suspension and (now) reliability - which is all I need for this car.

And yes, the car had the 3s-fe in it originally. Very little modifications had to happen to get the motor in the car - only the rear mount had to be modified.

There's a video on streetfire.net of that beast, it sounds like it has no engine, just a giant turbo under the hood. it's insane.

edit: stupid forum keeps double posting me.. wtf.

yeah, don't get me wrong.. it's an awesome sleeper. good job. i spent the better half of my teenage life in one of those older camrys, driving around with my friends.
