before considering a 2AZ it will be much better to consider a 3SGTE a engine that produces more with less that the 2AZ just my 2 cents

I wonder how much Tacti paid to get his 2AZ Solara setted up with turbo.

Don't call me a traitor or anything but you should look for a trans-am, this car is killa! (it should cost way less than this motor swap)

The 2AZ may be the biggest engine that fits FWD at 2.4.

who said that bigger is always better dont forget that when a engine code in toyota has a G like the 3SGTE is a high perfomance engine as I said before best route to go is 3SGTE or buy a new car

lol

you make it sound as though dropping a 3sgte into a camry/solara is a piece of cake

^^ agreed

thanks for all you're input guys really great to everyone's two cents on the topic. I think I will be doing some serious research, before I go and buy a used motor.

I really don't get it, you can just buy another car with high performance stats and be done with that while not spending more money than doing a motor swap.

If you buy another car there's the issue of "where to put it", insurance, and all that other good stuff related with buying a whole other vehicle.

As far as engines go, you gotta set a goal or something first, as hinted in earlier posts...we can give you all the options in the world but it won't make a lick of sense until you decide what you really want out of this car. It's actually a very broad question you're asking.
