Draza I'll have a look through my tear down and rebuild book it's got quite a few elec circuits, If I find the one your after I'll scan and send it to ya some how.
Also, does anyone know how they improved (I'm guessing the head) on the 2nd generation 3sge so that it didn't require tvis, also whether or not you could modify the 2nd gen to match up with a tvis manifold and what the outcome would be? I know this should be in tech but hey somebody here's gotta know something right

Charlie I think the gen2 3sge still had Tvis on it but I could be wrong, I thought they only got rid of tvis for the gen3. cause I saw a gen2 in an mr2 and it's intake manifold still said T-VIS (like it's real important  )
hey adrain those ones in that pic are the stock 14" rims from the ST162 series2. Since you don't have alot of cash I'd say just go for the painting, cause powder coating I know is expensive.
Doobs, It may be best otherwise with super low springs you car is gonna be one of those that you see just bouncing about and will make for one rough ride, getting the right shock for the springs could make it still smoothish.
eski boy, doesn't mean it's a jap import just because of the seats, those sports bucket seats came as a factory option, or they could be installed later. It's probably just an SX.

Ey all,
When you's change ya spark plugs, what do you use to take em out eg. the stock thing they give ya or some other tool?
If you use the stock thing did it come with a handle to put in the holes at the top or do you just use a screw driver?
Also what sort of spark plugs do you use, and what is the gap for a 3sge?
Thanx for the help, as you can tell im a novice when it come to engine work (evan as basic as this) so any help would be much appreciated.
Cheers

http://www.japparts.com.au/products/stock-arriving .html For those sticking with the 3sge, have a look at the half cuts avaliable in the toyota section, Celica 202 3sge for 2200$
that's 195bhp and vvti with no doubt a proper gearbox. I'll be ordering in one of these after I finish uni that's for sure haha 
Just thought I'ld post it incase anyone was interested

1. Im almost about to buy a set of springs for the silly car, but I need to know, will i have to buy new shockers aswell? of will the stock ones work fine? The springs I would get lower the car about 2.5"
|
It probably is best to get shockers as well if your going to buy springs or else it will be rough, KYB shocks aren't bad for the price, and a set of super low King springs will go well. I just cut my springs cos i know i'm getting new suspension once my conversion will be done. But it bounces around a fair bit.
You might have seen my car in Geelong before as i used to live there.

There is a specific socket with rubber on the inside that fits onto your ratchet with an extension, its the same with all other spark plugs. If your changing spark plugs just refer to the guide or some guy at the counter when your buying the new ones, as my Celica book is in my car at the moment and i don't know off the top of my head.

If your gonna make a c.a.i i know a cheap way to do it, go to "Something Munday" its in Nth Geelong next to the Arena, they have this pretty good grey tubing you can get for about 20 bucks, just measure up how much tubing you'll need before you buy it, and you can get different size tubes, its up to you, then i just used cable ties to direct it. But trust me it works and you don't have to spend much $$$.
By the way where abouts in Geelong do you live? Who's doin your leads?

Dude
it sounds like you have a jap import from those little things you've just mentioned, my celica is a jap import, has the cruise controller on the lower stalk of the steering wheel, but i guess one way you could tell that ur car's been in japan is the japanese writting on the steering wheel adjuster thing, don't knwo what it is, but behind your steering wheel it has instructions on how to use ur adjuster, and if its a jap import i'd imagine it'd have jap writting cause mine surely does, and in the engine bay, the cover that covers ur headers' or extractors has a note mentioning that its hot, well also in jap, so maybe those little things can also help in the conformation of ur cars origins.

not necessarily ST162GT-R, even the aus delivered ones have jap writing on the steering stalk adjustments and exhaust manifold heat shield. hell mine is aus delivered and it has jap writing, so do all the others I have seen.

Hey wiso, i was talking to a mate yesterday and he told me about a 162 owned by a girl that works near him. It apparently has 280fwkw, and is running 40psi. I've asked him to find out what it runs down the quarter. She goes through an engine a year.
It shows that we have alot to do, Rob u have even more.

yup, look for a circly bit near the throttle butterfly, if you have egr you have a non import, if there's no egr, the engine is a jap import. How descriptive huh? haha. It looks kinda like a ufo and is the position mentioned you'll know what it is if you see it

Hi guys, great thread! Nice to see some people are still interested in the ST162's. I'm relatively new to this forum, have been reading posts for some time but just didn't reply to anything
I saw my ST162 project being linked on this forum (http://www.tccn.nl/st162), so I thought well let's have a chat
Since 'The Engine Swap' is already discussed plenty here, I thought let's have a suspension conversation. What suspension are you guys riding on? For me, I have my suspension setup ready but have not driven is since I'm still in the progress of my Gen3 3SGTE swap... and looks like that will take at least a couple of months more.
My setup features Koni Yellow adjustable shocks, with Ground-Control coilovers (and Eibach springs), aftermarket bumpstops and sandblasted/powdercoated struts.
Here's a pic:

Ummm draza I think I'll be right with what I got, I'd max myself at about 150fwkw, but that will be a long way off.
ST162GT-R doesn't yours have 4 wheel steering? if it has 4WS then it is deffinatly a jap import and yes they were a GT-R.
my enignes cool it doesn't have that EGR shit
Edwin My suspension setup is Low King springs, KYB inserts and Whitline swaybars, it does me fine. Yeah man love your car, i was gonna write and ask a few questions on the 3sgte swap when I did mine but I worked it out.

ahh no they wouldn't remove 4ws when they replace an engine, 4ws would probably run off sensors on your steering rack which would tell the rear wheels how much to turn. with 4ws the whole rear suspension strut setup would be different. 4ws of course deos exactly that, all 4 wheels steer to make it able to do tighter corners and would improve handling responce heaps.

Traction, what traction, you mean these things are suppose to have traction  kidding depends how many revs you give it at launch, I dropped the clutch at 2500rpm at dubbo and still managed to wheels spin half the track length.
cornering depends on what gear your in and how brave you are? you can pull boost through a corner and pull out quickly but it's still FWD.

The squeak in the boot is usually just the latch thingo. Put some kind of hardcore (water sealing type?) tape around the U bit and it tends to shut up, until the tape starts to wear (electrical tape doesn't last long).

It would work very well on the 3S-GTE conversions, and maybe a bit better on standard ST162s, dunno - the change from 2nd (at the redline) would leave you after the peak torque of the gen 1 3S-GE...so you'd be better off changing at around about 6800-6900.
I'd have to whip out my calculator and a dyno sheet to figure the shift point perfectly.

it is wired cause i remember a number a verible thing that differ fromt he findings. First yes most of us would agree the redline on a st162 3S-GE, is 7300 but i read on the wheels artical in late 85 that it is 6800 where the red dashed lines start, but meh up to u, i did theo take it to 7300 alot and paid with no piston rings and valve seal = big end bearing 'kicking its bucket'.
Two, in my stock S-53 st162 box that i broke aobut 3 months back that 1st went to about 55-60km/h pushing the crap out of that 7300 redline. then 2nd abusuluity no more than 90km/h about 7300-7400. 3rd was right on 140km/h at 7300rpm and then 4th i never reved out just changed to 5th, but sure it was about 185-190km/h at 7300 and 5th based on the ratio's read in many other places is that 5th should pull 230km/h (no a number of people pulled this).
Ok sorry about the babaling on but the box i got froma wreaker is nice and tight, had st162 in the wreaker type pen paint on the box and bolted stright up. it has the same hort 1st gear. 2nd is much like Sw20 one and i can take to 100km/h at 7000-7200rpm. 3rd is amasing but shit up our testing hill cause it not in seet stop whne shifting from 2nd. 3rd goes to 160km/h right on redline. 4th is about same as old 5th and 5th is a nice and fuel friendly/ high way gear and does only 2600rpm at 110km/h.
so the only way this can be is from it being modified before and me getting for a wreaker price or what model toyota is it from???
Nezza 
Also an update on the st185 swap, got the 3s-gte out of the cut with the loom still on it and the gt-4 box off it. i cleaned up the taper cover and the compresser cover a bit and painted the heat sheild black (just touched it up). Wednesday my mechanic comes back to get the s-53 box out and on the 3s-gte and figure out the starter problem, then then the 3s-ge engine out. and figure out all the shit i can borrow of the cut for me, and then the 3s-gte in my car, then i wire shit up  , lol

I've bounced my car off the redline and had no problems with the engine 'throwing a leg out of bed', I would imagine if it is done repeatedly it will start to kill the thing.
With all those numbers, remember that speedos can vary from car to car, and also they are only approximations because it's very hard to predict actual rolling radius of a tire...it depends on temperature, pressure etc.

Yea thats y in nsw there is a 10% leeway, this lets mechanical errors be accounted for so they don't just book u. Unlike Vic as i think it is only 3kn/h not 10%.

Yeah - 3S-GELC just means you have the california-complying emissions equipment on the car...afaik the Australian delivered ones ran a different compression ratio as well.
