4AGE Identification (RWD?)
|

Recently bought a 4AGE that is apparently a genuine RWD AE86 engine and box but info i'm finding suggests otherwise. It's currently set up in RWD, just wondering what it's out of/age etc.
Here's some stuff to help ID:
Eng No. - 4A1083012
Black and Red lettering
7 Rib block on intake side (3 rib on exhaust)
TVIS
AFM
8 Bolt f/wheel
Beige injectors
Yellow computer plugs
22 spline box (T50 - 4AGE?)
clutch on echaust side
From what i can find, it should be a FWD MAP sensored AE92 with 4AC
T50 box, but somehow it has an AFM??
Any ideas?
Cheers
Glen.

For some reason, work has filtered the pictures, if it;s got sideways leads on the distributor cap, then it is probably a mr2 motor.

looks just like the 9.4:1 c/r 7 rib t-vis bigport 4age that came out in every 87+ Oz delieverd AW11 that i've seen. the AW11 'red and black' cam writing 4age has the same internals as the early 4agze bar the pistons.
though i do know some of the guys i know in the states have the exact looking engine but their's had the early 4age internals.
the only way you will find out for sure is to remove the sump/splash tray and a big end cap and measure the crank (40mm vs 42mm).

Well its definately not a rwd version, firstly all rwd units were TVIS , secondly they were all 3 rib blocks, thirdly they were all from factory without exception MAP sensored. And to add the alternator mounting position looks to be incosistent with known rwd ones, the rwd bracket is mounted a little differently.
