mmm hi

edited deleted my post haha. xD realized it was a 2vz
1991 Toyota Camry / Lexis V6 Engine 2VZ 2.5 Liter

Mark_Dorman · 03-15-2009, 06:40 PM

You thinkin about a V6 swap too???

Davis · 03-15-2009, 08:08 PM

Hey guys, back a bit early. So I installed my brass shifter bushings and shifter base bushings. Can't really give you a review just yet because I installed it wrong.

I needs to go buy me some snap ring pliers to reinstall it. But so far it feels good.

Oh and my o2 sensor was busted. Don't know why the CEL ever came on. Want to know how I know it's busted? While installing the bushings, I was all on Mindy.

and I lost my balance and well my elbow caught the o2 sensor wire and ripped it right out of the connector. I was bummed, until I started my car and got everything all warmed up. She still drives the same!

CEL still isn't on. Very odd indeed. Must order one asap.

datguydeni · 03-15-2009, 08:08 PM

maybe... but might go turbo on the 5sfe xD. i'll continue reading up about yellows mr2 and the others. and we'll see ^^

Davis · 03-15-2009, 08:23 PM

Really? YellowMR2? There are way better people to follow up then that guy.

Ordered the o2 from twosrus.

Busted sensor explains why my car gets crappy gas mileage all these years.

datguydeni · 03-15-2009, 08:54 PM

i used him as an example since he is most current. feel free to post more other guys with 5sfte builds xD

Davis · 03-15-2009, 09:35 PM

If you haven't seen already, here's some good info on converting the 5s into a 5sfte.
