Default Engine swap?

So I was browsing turbonetics catalog and I see the engine code is 2AZ-FE in the tC. Wouldnt the Supra, which is a 2JZ, fit if I did an engine swap?

I have a 91 CRX si, Im going to wait a few years untill the K series swap has the kinks all worked out, and Put maybe an RSX s engine in it.
But I still think you should shut the hell up about your honda, because no one here cares.

Is anyone gonna drop a Camry V6? That would be crazy.... There's no 5-speed though, huh? Nevermind.

I'm guessing your BEST thinking in life got you pretty much nowhere...

actually besides the 3SGTE swap, the 3MZ-FE motor would be a good swap and I know it would fit tightly in the engine bay (3.3L v6 out of camry or solara )

the 1MZ-FE is the 3.0L V6 for just the camry, not the solara...And going to the 3.3L because it has never been backed by a 5spd yet would require a bellhousing custom made, but there are fab-shops that do that

You could always swap the motor and the drivetrain from the Rav4 AWD and then you would have a couple extra horses and all wheel drive.
