Hey bud, as the sw20 moved from 1990 to 1998 the 3SGE/TE's (im pretty sure) head was revised and power was increased. (not to mention the rear tail light change).

Oh okay , yeah thats a very good point never really considered it. There's just something about the older cars that the new cars don't have. Sounds silly I guess but would be pretty awesome to cruise around in one. Thanks heaps for the help. I'm actually quit excited about looking at the corona this afternoon, just hope its a well-kept one. :) thanks again!

Oh okay, sounds fair enough. I guess one of those future investments if funds go right and everything else. Thanks for the info!

Dat wagon! PWAH! lol Im liking the side view mirrors on the quarter panels, adds a little elegance ! :P

So a 7m can fit into the Corona engine bay ? Does this mean that a 1jzgte or 1ggte should also be a great choice and actually worth the change ? The engine mounts for these engines are the same as the 22RE ? :$ Sorry totally new to this and best to ask questions to those who know a lot more than make a mistake haha....

Hey Graeme ! You seem to be someone who's still passionate about the RT141and 142 !! Im going to look at one for sale on friday, Would you know of any tips or hints about it ?? Its a 1985 Avante with a 5 speed manual gearbox running the 22RE engine. Would you know if its worth modifying at all ?? Im struggling to find aftermarket parts for one. So far through research I found companies selling the exhaust maniofld that fits a turbo for the Toyota 4runner. They too run a 22RE but turbo. Is this an idea at all ? or is it better to do an engine conversion ? :S I would love to have a 1ggte in it !!! :D thanks, Seb

Hey there Guys, I had noticed it has been a few years since your last post. Im currently looking at the 1985 Avante model for sale. It has a 22R-E engine (2.4 litre EFI). Im going to check into doing engine conversions too if possible! Anyways, Where are you guys now? Do you still own your vehicles ? There seems to be very low love for this type of Toyota

even though you guy's havent done this but having the head of a 3sgte onto a 5sfe bottom work ? even fitment wise ?

Haha ! wow, after all that ! glad to know its running well again ! well done !

Hi to all ! Im new on here and I actually don't own a Celica but It's in my plans as I recently smashed my WRX... I'm sure this has been spoken somewhere on here but I'm just having a little bit of trouble of finding things... So I apologise if I have repeated something for like the 50th time. I would like to know if the 3vzfe engine out of the 1991-1996 Camry will fit into the st184 celica ?? So far from the research that I have made, I have found that the Camry also had the 5sfe engine from the FWD st184. When I mean by fit I mean will it fit with minimal issues ?? (fit engine mounts, room of the engine bay, etc...) If this engine conversion is possible what gearbox (manual) would be best suited to the change ? Thanks for reading !! I'm super excited about owning a ST184 ! seb
