Name : Manuel C
Location : Chicago IL/USA
Model : 1994 Camry SE V-6 Coupe
Engine : 1MZ-FE (3.0L V6 24 valve 188 hp)
Options : Leather, power package, sun/moon roof, gold trim
SE sport package : alloy wheels, rear spoiler
Mods : Pioneer head unit (AM/FM/CD)
PIAA 959 ion-crystal projector lamps
PIAA Platinum SuperWhite headlamps

Planned Mods
Suspension, brakes and header/exhaust mods:
- Springs (H&R or Eibach)
- Strut brace (Freedom Design)
- Anti-sway bars (TBD)
- Cross-drilled rotors (Toysport), painted calipers
- Headers (TBD)
- Dual-tip exhaust (GReddy TBD)
Am also interested in retrofitting a manual tranny into the
V-6. They have these in current models for the 1MZ-FE.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Drop me a line.
Thanks for visiting!!!
I seem to get a lot of unsolicited mail everytime I mention
"Camry" on the various mailing lists. FWIW, here's what I've
found so far for a 94 Camry V-6...
Rather underwhelming, given that the Camry is the most popular
Toyota, and consistently one of the most popular cars in America.
BRAKES
Brake rotors
- cross-drilled (Brembo blanks?) $225 per pair
- vendor TOYSPORT : 213-755-1177
SUSPENSION
Anti-Sway Bars none found so far
Springs Eibach/H&R from Autobahn Inc
Eibach (8226.140) 6cyl 1992> F:1.30 R:1.00 $279.95
H&R (54682.2) 6Cyl 1992-96 F:1.30 R:1.25 $253.95
TRD (c/o Street Racing)
MCV10 (48130-011) V6 92-96 F:1.00 R:1.00 $344.94
Strut Brace
Freedom Design for V6, 92-96
Polished Aluminum (63601) $116.95
Carbon Fiber Look (63651) $143.95
EXHAUST
Cat-back Exhaust Systems
GReddy Sport Exhaust system. Features cat-back mandrel bent
piping, and dual chamber polished muffler, and a single 4.5" tip.
MSRP $525.
Headers none found so far
TRD claims that a fitment will be difficult, as there the cats
are very close to the motor with the OE V6. Not much improvement
is projected over the stock exhaust manifold.
OTHER ASPIRATIONS
Supercharger
TRD is reportedly working on a supercharger for the 1MZ-FE.
Limited details are available, but early testing shows a 60-80 hp
increase with 4 psi of boost.
See TRDNW page for a writeup on a Camry project car.
=======================
Beginning in June (1999), Toyota Racing Development will offer a
supercharger for your 3.0-liter V6 Camry, Solara, ES300 or Sienna.
This will initially be available for 97+ cars; hopefully
a fitment for older cars will follow later.
TRD is the source of engines for Ivan Stewart's desert race
truck, Rod Millen's record-holding 1997 Pikes Peak Tacoma truck,
Dan Gurney's championship-winning IMSA GTP cars and two CART
teams.
If you can't wait for the supercharger to soup up your 3.0-liter
Toyota, TRD already offers a wide variety of performance and
handling parts for those models, as well as for the Tacoma,
4Runner and T100. For the Camry, TRD offers a dealer- or
owner-installed option package that includes a body kit, 16-inch
BBS wheels with 215/55 V-rated Bridgestone radials, Bilstein
shocks and lowering springs. TRD contributes parts for the
Tacoma PreRunner package, a 4x2 pickup with bigger wheels and
tires, stiffer springs and shocks, and a locking rear differential.
All the kits, in parts or complete, are available through any
Toyota dealer, or you can contact TRD directly at www.trdusa.com
or call (800)688-5912.
