Topic #25836 55 posts Started by FAQdaWorld
Well the swap is really close to being done now. I got someone to weld the rest of the exhaust up, its a little restrictive but I'll be getting all new exhaust once i go turbo.

I figured i'd post up a video for you gents to look at >smile.gif>

I have the greddy cat back on there, and as you can see the celica MOVES!!!

Right click, save as

Whats left to be done:


Install front shocks (kyb gr2's)

FMIC

Hook Up power steering

Body shop to finish up the front.


Overall we should be done within the next week or two.

Haha, i dont have time to write THAT book. I'll probably end up putting something together in terms of telling people some of my problems / solutions.

The tranny is the e58, and the engine is the ae101. >smile.gif>

Few more pics for the hell of it.

the ecu for an ae101 4agze. I found a guy who does the wiring and he really knows his stuff unlike some other people. I'm sure he'd be happy to do more, its his business. He can also get 4agze parts for all you 7afte'ers out there.

the 101's were distributorless? I see the coil pack...

The only ones that werent dli were the aw11's from the mk1 mr2. AE92, and 101 are both dli.

hrm. I had no clue. >smile.gif> gotta love club4ag
im jealous! i am still on the wiring!!!! ahhhhh!
I saw that u ran into the 2-1 downpipe problem too! i need one also. What did u end up doin? i plan on getting the trd headers since they look nice. Do u happen to know if i ccan just use 4age headers or do i really need to go with a 4agze one.

Chris MalaquiNon-running Celica
You can use the headers from a 4age, but they SUCK compared to the stock gze stuff. Look on club4ag for the downpipe or w/e you want to call it. I found mine from a fellow club4ager and got the header and downpipe for 50 bucks delivered to my door (he lived pretty near me hehe).

Good luck finding the trd headers, they are discontinued, and what is on ebay is hard to find and expensive. I Honestly think you should hold out for someone from club4ag to sell their stuff, they dont use the fwd manifolds anyway.

Good luck, i should be going to the shop very soon, to get her finished up 100%.

This is the ae101 4agze, its a dohc 16v, supercharged 4 banger. It's got 170 hp @ 6400 rpm, and around 170 ft/lb of torque (correct if wrong?)

The main difference between the 4age and the 4agze would be the supercharger, but also the 4agze has lower compression and stronger internals (better for more boost later).


I'll post more vids maybe tonight, or later in the week.

i would consider going to a fmic as soon as u can. that top mount is just going to heatsoak to death where it is now without any type of hood scoop.

The torque rating is actually around 150 ft lbs...

Anyway, it's basically the same thing as the later model (42mm crank) 4AGE's except it has lower compression and a supercharger. The rods, crank, etc... are all essentially the same thing between the 42mm models, except for the 20V's...

Yeah, i'm going fmic like next week haha. Its just like that now so i can run it. I am gonna have the fmic welded in when i get some body work done on the car.

I really think the exhaust i have on there is pretty restrictive, i have it going from the dp to a reducer and then into a cat, and then into the greddy sp1 that i've always had. So eventually (after i pass smog) i'm gonna sell that stuff and get all new exhaust.

-FAQ

AIM : FAQdaWorld
yeah thats a good idea. the exhaust is a great upgrade for a turbo or super charged motor.

Ran the celica through emissions the other day, and failed. Seems I have a faulty o2 sensor, so i've ordered a new one (figures that the gze had to use a 4 wire o2 sensor which is the most expensive kind...). Hopefully I'll replace it and then pass emissions, if not then theres always the good ole rubbing alcohol trick >wink.gif>

AIM : FAQdaWorld
i wish i could fail emmisions >frown.gif> ... i wish i had a running car...

Here's the new plan.
GET A STAND ALONE ECU. RUN ONLY THE BASIC COMPONENTS.

Anyone in the San Diego, Southern CAli region that can help me out, Please email me or pm or aim.

Thanks!

And please show some more vids and pics of that 4agze of yours.

Chris MalaquiNon-running Celica
Well, about 2 or three weeks later or whatever... but we passed!!!!


We used a variety of tricks, ran the engine real hard before going there, put some rubbing alcohol in the gas tank (dont worry i diluted it again immediately after i passed), and then i used the s-afc to lean out the fuel just a bit just in case, we didnt need it tho.


Passed emissions w/ flying colors,

I promised a video, sorry its not much, but i'll compile something nice soon >smile.gif>
