V6 motor swap - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #18351 8 posts Started by frosty
I know there are all the stickys up top about engine swaps but I didn't see anything about a V6. (if there is something about it then I'm sorry I asked, just point me in the right direction)

Basically, you know my question. Could a V6 work in a celica? I know you could make it work, just like the supra motor, but since the motor is alittle more compact than the inline 2J-GZE it should fit better, right?

I dunno, my mind wanders and thoughts like this come about. I'm really not interested to do it, just thought it would be a good conversation piece.

God Bless

I saw a post a while back were someone put a V6 Camry engine into an MR2 and turboed it. So if you can do in in an MR2, I'm sure it can be done in a Celica, with the right amount of money and ingenuity.

there is one guy on celica.net with a v6 motor in his 5th gen. so its a possible swap for us to. i think he used a v6 out of a camry.

15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned
It has been done in a 5th gen... the 6th gen engine bay is relatively bigger... so I can be done... all custom... but can be done. Not all that fast though. I think the 5th genner that did it only ran high 14's...

He used a 1MZFE with the E153 tranny... custom just about everything else...
