beams ftw. Seriously, after talking about it today, I'm considering the Beams myself too haha. Wait, dude, I just thought of an even crazier idea... hmmm. I'm going to need to research this some more.
why not v6. its crazy in terms of torque... and it drops in fairly easy... beams is harder to get ahold of too... >__> gimme ur turbo setup then HAHA

Personally, I think the V6 would be extra weight that you won't need unless you have a higher power goal. But you are right, it would be lots of torque, then throw a supercharger on it... mmmm...

Rargggg so many engine choices I would like to try! I would really really really (etc) like to swap in the Beams, but I can't do it until I really feel like I have a full understanding of the 5s and what it's capable of.
i just gave u a call lol but you didnt answer! its fine

well.. i recall a v6 weighting less than a 3sgte engine.. so i dunno how it compares to the 3sge engine.. the thing is beams would drop right in but it is a 4 banger and it is harder to source... v6 would require more wiring but easier to find and v6...

HRM CHOICES CHOICES. i actually really want a v6 i think.. but if beams is ALOT simpler.. then that might sway me too.

Well if you can find it, then you found it, and then it doesn't matter what's harder to source at that point. I wouldn't say that the Beams is A LOT simpler.

The V6 would be nice, because I believe if you got a USDM one from a camry from like 96 or newer, then you should be able to get that swap legalized. Gosh, I gotta stop thinking bout engine swaps or I'll never get to sleep. I'll start thinking about super hybrid swaps like a Tacoma 2TR-FE swap, or a 3UR-FE 5.7L Tundra engine and then Twin Turbo it... oh man... Too bad that is completely overkill even if it were even possible haha.

Haha you called me? I'm not good at answering calls haha. Text message has a 58% higher change of getting to me. But only if the text contains more than 1 word. Text messages consisting of only "?" or ":)" or "lol" will probably not get a reply from me haha. Unless it's from a cute asian girl, but still... those 1 word texts... rawr...

EDIT: I thought you wanted to do a manual swap hahaha.

what about wiring for the beams engine and the v6? the v6 is obdII too.. i think or actually the 1mz isnt... but im worried about wiring...

edit::
the 1mz IS OBDII but i'd want to do the 3mz

I don't want to say that wiring is easy, cause sometimes it can be a pain. But if you have all the wiring diagrams, take your time, and have an uncut wiring harness, then it's pretty straight forward. It's not so much which one is harder to wire (cause honestly, the wiring difficulty is comparable between the 2), it's about how complete the motor you get is. If you get a motor that has no ECU, cut harness, and missing sensors, then that swap is going to be more difficult even if it's just a 7afe/5sfe swap. Just make sure you have everything you need, and everything else will go a lot smoother.
ahh i see i see.... well then i'd have to look locally for the engine anyways.. the 3mz comes in siennas so i guess i'll have to source another tranny. i suppose the e153... with LSD? biggrin.gif manual? biggrin.gif <3 <3 so.. i should be looking for a complete engine with all sensors and complete harness and an ecu.. i'll keep that in mind. i doubt i'll be doing this swap anytime soon, but i guess its nice to dream is there anything else i should look for that comes with the engine?


ok i guess not the 3.3L since.. it takes 91 octane i think.. 1mz? yee yee not legal

Oh well, at least for now you have a ゼロカ-ル decal from this meet smile.gif.
lol yeah... im hella tired.. dont tell me u have work in 3:30 hours >__<

hrmmm the 1mz actually looks pretty affordable... biggrin.gif
just go buy a V6 haha. Yeah I gotta work, but sleepy work is the best. It makes everything at work REALLY funny for no reason haha. Tomorrow is Friday which means free drinks for the day. I usually load up on Rocksstars and that gets me through the day smile.gif. Ofcourse I would prefere just not to work tomorrow, but if I plan to host a meet on a weekend, I'm going to have to take a day off work in the future. Sigh, oh well. I'm either going to sleep or eat right now, and since there is not much to eat right now, i think I'll go to sleep haha.
>__< sorry for keeping u up lol im just bored and not tired yet... and the whole engine swapping thing we discussed today is really tempting... we'll see but yeah... go to sleep, i'll see u sometime this month to check out the turbo setup haha



btw::

masked i wanted to help u fix some of ur hatch stuff today actually but we headed out pretty fast... are there things that i could help u do to get the hatch running sooner? i got plenty free time so yeah

of all da things i lost.... i miss my mind da most
HahaHa well Sunday I'll be working, BUT if y'all wanted to meet me at work at 3:30pm then that would be cool. I'm supposed to get off work at 4:00pm on the dot, but usually we aren't busy, and then we leave early. What I usually do is ensure I get out at 3:30 is not take a lunch break. That way, I can clock off work half an hour early, bring my Celica in, and work on it smile.gif. That's what CAMAricer did last week. We balanced the wheels to his SC430. Yeah, if you want to meet up this Sunday, just meet me at work, and I guess we could find something to do (which will most likely involve eating smile.gif).
im down. lemme know zerocool we can head out there on sunday
im down hit me up at 510 502 0985

of all da things i lost.... i miss my mind da most
I still haven't heard from CAMAricer yet. There's the possibility he is out of town, but I'll see if I can get a hold of him before tomorrow. Ok, so I guess the plan can be to meet me at work, then we can go over to my house for a second so I can change clothes real quick, or else I'll smell like Toyota oil for the rest of the day. Toyota oil scent doesn't exactly pick up the ladies, but if it did work for one, then she would be either really really cool, or just really weird haha.

Just hit me up or drive right into the Service area. There should be no managers tomorrow (I love Sundays) so you can just ask for me (my name is Derrick at work, NOT MaskedMan hahaha). I got a package in the mail yesterday that was addressed to MaskedMan and I'm like wth haha. Anyways, yeah my car will most likely be parked inside if you go straight through service (Nam should know where I park my car if he meets up with you first) just park by me, there should be room since most of the customer cars will be gone by then. And yeah, as soon as I'm good to leave, then we'll head out smile.gif.
alright.. can i get the address for the place u work maskedman?
Yeah, here's the address.

>>255 San Pedro Rd>>
>>Daly City, CA 94014
