Ok ppl, now i'm after an ECU, preferably off a 3TGTE, or off a 2S from a camry... Also injectors and other stuff i will post as i remember...
i think u r probly refering to a 3SGTE, Jaxe, as it would be pointless going backwards in a car that a 3S bolts straight into...

I have a dozen spare injectors, unfortunately I think they're all stuffed. They may come back with a clean, but my gut feeling is they would need alot of time and need to be "heated" to dislodge impurities in them. They have been tested and do spray, but the patterns are all over the place, hence my reluctance to spend any money on them. You can have the lot for $30 if you can't find any others, if you get four good ones - half your luck!
I also have a spare 3TGTE oil cooler, if you want a factory item? Be careful when bolting these up, there are differences that need to be addressed between water and oil cooled turbos. Let me know if you want any help in that area?!

TRD, got your PM, thought it'd be better to post the info here on 3TGTE's so others can read it as well!
3TGTE's come with either an oil cooled or water cooled turbo. Oil cooled turbo motors come with an oil cooler factory fitted, however it is only operational when the oil heats up - ie they have a thermostat that controls oil flow to the cooler. There is no oil flow to the cooler until the oil reaches an increased temperature.
If you have a factory oil cooled turbo motor, you can simply install the oil cooler without having to worry about the thermostat. While the oil is cool, it will bypass the cooler and head straight to the turbo via the steal main oil supply line that exits from the alloy fitting before the oil filter. Once the oil heats up, it runs through the cooler and then into the turbo via an alternate route.
If your motor was originally a factory water cooled turbo that you want to install a factory oil cooler onto, you need to install the thermostat in the end of the steel main oil supply line that exits from the alloy fitting before the oil filter.
If you want to convert an oil cooled turbo motor to a water cooled turbo unit, you will need to remove the thermostat from the line. Failure to do this will see you starve the turbo of oil once the oil heats up, as the thermostat restricts oil flow through the main oil feed line.
The oil cooler I have is a factory unit with the correct length lines too, you can find a picture of it in my ad titled "Performance Goodies For Sale" in the car parts for sale section, will PM you some details on those injectors and oil cooler!

Yeh mine is just standard oil-cooled turbo version, it has all that thermostat and stuff, will probably get braided lines and stuff, just need the actual cooler... do u have any idea where they were mounted on carina's or whatever from the factory? I'm trying to decide the best place...

They were mounted on the LHSide of the vehicle in front of the Water radiator.
