good luck.

same man, and my clutch went. can't help you out.

>



open wide, spoon is on its way.

the reason why not many have experiences with the stock clutch, is because is a royal pain to replace it after the engine is installed, why run the risk of wanting more power down the road and trashing a brand new clutch because it wasnt desing for that amount of power ? yes, I read you said you dont want more than stock, that's what most people say when swapping their engines, and 3 months later the car starts to feel slow again, and power is a boost controller away.

I may have mis advised you before, reading deeper into your answers, you should keep looking for someone to do it for you that's if you want the car to run again. unless you are willing to spend countless hours reading and reading and then doing some reading, you better get that checkbook ready.

something i did to my lights

sorry mike had to do it they look amazing man hope urs come out the same

so i asked mike, Mike how did you open your headlights? and he said boilem so i did


then i opened them like a clam and took a peak


took off the bezel and painted them black me like

Mine look the same! I did all 4 My low beams look amazing with the accent lights in them

wow thats some nice work man, makes me think a lil

sooo today i pulled my ECU and this is what i found




for those that know u know and thos that dont google it its a quick wikipedia or check the link below

http://www.rpmgarage.com/new/detail/?tid=11224

aren't you f*cking lucky!!!

dude if i ever decide to build another celica ITS FULL FRONT CLIP ALL THE WAY DEFINITELY WORTH EVERY PENNY paid 3500 got parts upwards of 6000


ok so found this on a forum


if you google 89661 2b840, you will note that this is a hacked '94 / '95 JDM ST205 ecu.

essentially like all these types of pnp ECU, it will have a raised RPM and boost cut and will run best of high octane fuel. It is not re-mappable and only good for light breathing mods eg exhaust & flter


NOTE:

# You DO NOT need an uprated fuel pump eg walbro 255 lph or equivalent. (This will casue overfuelling, despite having a FPR)

# You DO need a ST205 or SW20 rev3 3sgte denso fuel pump @ 225 lph.

# You DO need ST205 / SW20 540cc low impedance side feed injectors.

# You DO need ST205 electronics: MAP sensor, igniter, IAT etc




ill take a wild guess that being that the car was running with this ecu i probably have all the parts the engine needs to accomodate this ecu but they say not to use a walboro pump, who knows more about this ecu ill continue to research THIS IS PART OF MY RESEARCH LOL j/k but any input is appreciated,

only want to know about the walboro fuel pump overfeeding

Sweet treasure you found there Arrrrr!

wow.
what a thread.
now, i must admit, i havent looked at this thread really at all untill this morning, but from meeting you at CSP, i definetly wouldnt have thought you'd be this rude.

these guys are telling you to research over and over for a REASON.
you want everything spoon fed for you, like stevenson said, but even if we do spoon feed you, your still gonna be lost when it actually comes time to DO somthing, cause you arnt actually LEARNING anything.
these guys that are telling you all this stuff are guys who HAVE done the research, and taken the time to learn how to and perform theyre own swaps.
youve met cam, ask him what he has gone thru over the past YEAR researching his swap, then ask him how hard reality slapped him in the face when it came time to actually DO it.
without the help of dustin and steff, he would have been LOST, and not because he didnt research and take the time...its because he's never done it. like you.
untill you've actually done somthing, all this talk is just that, talk, but the more you actually take the time to do the research and learn as much as you can now, the more prepared you'll be when you run into the little hiccups that come with ANY swap.
if you cant handle that, you better be prepared to spend ALOT of money to do things twice, and expect lots of problems along the way.
good luck.

Did you hold them in there the whole time or just dunk them? I've been planning on painting the bezels for a while now and just haven't gotten around to doing it. I've heard of the baking method, but I'm scared the rubber may melt. Please advise.

How do they look on your car?

>


After the water is boiling just dip tyem for about a minute or so and see if its easy to pry them off if its a lil to hard still dippem again until they are easy to work with and ill upload a picture wen i get on but they look nice

The sudden heat doesn't crack the lens? That's all I'm worried about.

>
Cant guarantee that but i can say it didnt happren to me

No it won't, mine were completely fine. You just have to let the glass cool a little bit before prying otherwise you can chip off little pieces of the glass. I know from experience on an extra head light that I had.

I'll start off with an extra that I have as well and see what I can do. Trying to figure out if I want to tackle that tonight or not haha.

>


i probably deserve that
and i didnt mean to disrespect anyone if i did
specially not dustin cus he has been nothing but help to me as well

but to be fair manny ive seen a few posts where ppl just throw the "do research" bit around as a joke, like one post where a guy goes " i got this one do research lol"
now thats rude as well

if we wanna grow as a community if u think someone isnt ready to do a swap we should ask him what does he think he know to see if hes ready
and no am no mechanic and i dont use technical words there for i use terms like frankestein peice given that its a clutch made for the 3sgte to work with the s54 and also other forums just confuse the **** out of me because everyone post things as they understand them and their not necessarily mechanics or technicians so confusion arises

Went and saw the car today. Awesome progress.

Small update broke the pass axle need another one asap anyone has any please let me know i need one badly
and yes am 3sgte already didnt post any progress pics cus no one thought i could do it but while drivin today car was a lil funky and then blaaaa axle was done

What tranny are you using? If it's the s54, just buy a new one at autozone. Be sure to bring in the old one when you buy it so you can get the core back on it. I think it was about $80 after the core was taken off.

I need the st185 outers for my e153 dont feel like goin to autozone bit i will if i cant find one soon

So my axles jus keep poppin out
Used a spacer
Longer axle from camry
Longer axle plus spacers
Keeps poppin out
Tryna get an axle carrier but everywhere i go no one seems to know what it is lol
Havent been able to enjoy my car for more than a few mins at a time lol

any suggestions anyone?

is the snap ring on ?
that's the only thing holding the pass side axle in the tranny.

Dnt think any of the 2 passanger stubs i have got a snapring went to a couple parts stores and no one knows wat they are lol
