6th Generation Celica › Engine/Transmission/Maintenance
Stock 3S plugs are platinum, not iridium.
1st, 2nd and 3rd gens.
Only the 4th gens might have iridiums, it's a relatively new plug.
As for copper being better because it conducts better, consider this...

Depending where you go to buy a caliper you might get just the caliper or you might get both. ...

While all 5SFEs are interchangeable, there are a couple of things. For one, the Camry engine has balance shafts, yours doesn't.
They won't effect how the engine bolts in, but they will rob some [relat...

If you have no power to anything, forget under the dash.
Check the large fuses in the main relay block.
They've got a clear top and look like boxes, they're not thin like normal fuses.

No, that's the dust shield, it protects the trans seal from dirt/debris.

Well, assuming your starter circuit is working correctly [solenoid is holding the switch closed], and both ends of both battery cables are tight and non corroded, you have a bad starter.

It has nothing to do with your engine stuff in that case, it's only something in the starter circuit.

The 3VZ is the older Camry V6 with the cast iron block.
I would guess that it would still fit in your Celica, but IMO you're better off with the 1MZFE or 3MZFE [3.3]. Both are aluminum block.
