New To The Toyota

[OldSkool89]

Im feel Im stuck in a hole. I had a Honda CRX that was pretty quick. After I blew my motor, things just started goin downhill. All of a sudden I have a POS in my garage that didnt run so I traded my bud for a 1989toyota camry LE v6. It was an ok ride and lets face it, it got me places opposed to my honda. Anyways, Ive been drivin around the camry for a while and I figure its time for the camry to surpass the honda. The only thing I know about my camry is that its a V6 , its an LE model and its an auto :( .

-What motor can I swap in to get some gains or is the motor I have in ok already.

-I've only found one company that makes a body kit for it, is there any other ones out there or can I custom fit one on.

-Does anyone out there know how much HP I have? Dyin to know. (1989 Camry V6 LE)

i'll go ahead and tell ya that your engine is a 3.0 liter. they do make good power, but whatever you do, don't do what i guy i know did to his...don't EVER EVER put on a flowmaster exaust. it looked aweful. i'd say power wise you're okay. wouldn't swap out. not even sure if u can franctly. i'd vote for a good exaust system and some cold air intake. that'll do ya. i'd go for a newer one though. mabye a 96 model 2 door(if u can find one).

hi your toyota has a good motor in it. it has Appox. according to the factory 153 bhp @ 5400 and 155ft-lb@4400 it is a 2.5L 60 degree V6 (2504cc) i have a 1988 LE V6 with a air adapter and filter from procarpparts.com and i have whiteline racing sway bars and intrax springs kyb struts and a Lexus ES 250 strut tower brace these helped me out on reminder everything from a toyota 4 banger will work on your car as long as it has nothing to do with the motor and trans. like the springs and sway bars work good. your hedders are a place that can do some work thay are very ristrictive and the front banke runs through the back one bad. if you go to nopi.com you can look on the ecat and find things like a trans & motor chip upgrade. places to watch out for are the valve covers leaking and the suspention bushings. some simple interior upgrades can be found on procarparts and Nopi you can also look at the Lexus ES 250 for motor parts because it is a toyota camry V6 with different features like fenders and tunk and windows but the frame and motor and suspention is the same if you are looking for a trans swop for a manual the trans is a E-52 that is the one that mounts to it from factory and when it comes to body kits i have only found one and that is from eribuni.

that is a good car i beet alot of hondas and my motor only has a air intake. TJVP
