Is there an easy way to get these out, do I need to remove anything first?

Difference between 3TC and 3TGTE block? Fri, 17 January 2003 04:24 Go to previous messageGo to next message
What are the differences between these blocks (if any at all)? From my understanding the 3TC is a pushrod motor, which means the cam will be in the block, where's the 3TGTE is a DOHC so the cams are in the head... Does that mean there is a gap in the 3TGTE block where the cam used to be?

Is it possible to bolt a 3TGTE head to a 3TC block? As far as water channels etc go...?

And if you wanted to run without the turbo (to effectively have a 3TGE) if you use the 3TC pistons + rods etc if I'm not mistaken you should still retain a reasonable amount of compression?

Also, what are the legalities of this (as far as age of engine goes - cause you can't put an older engine into a newer car)? As far as I know it is the block that counts, is there any way to tell what year/type of block it is?

Reason I'm asking is someone's offered me a 3TC block and 3TGTE head for a fairly good price, but my KE55 is a 1981. As far as I know 3TC's stopped production pre-81, but 3TGTE's went on for a few more years...

*edit* Oh it looks like I'm wrong... The 3TC's went all the way to '82 Smile

If not what sould I do to the 7AFE to produce more power. I know most engines in the same family are interchangeable but I talked to a few people and they told me 3SGTE is worth it. Also I need to rework the tranny and need some ideas. Please posts some ideas as i need them Smile

Starlet in USA...
I'm looking for a Toyota rear end for my Toyota Starlet (1983) I need to lower the ration and I was told that the early Corolla Station Wagons (3K - K40 trans, Model KE2X) had a 4:44 - 1 rear end ratio that will work, Also the earlier Starlet Station Wagons (78-81) used that same ration. The Corolla I believe was imported to the USA but the Starlet Wagon was not. They only sold the Starlet here in the USA from 81 to 84. Can any one help? I only need the center section or "pumpkin" so as to
keep the shipping cost down.

3SGE in an AE92 Tue, 28 January 2003 07:09 Go to previous messageGo to next message
Hi guys, long time lurker, first time poster here.

I own a 1990 model SX hatch and am looking at doing an engine conversion within the next couple of months. I am basically down to 2 options, both N/A.

1) Blacktop 20V, with 6spd box, and maybe an LSD, $6K-$7K
2) 3SGE (BEAMS), with 5spd box, $9-$10K

I went down to Toyospares Bayswater recently and was tempted by the option of putting a 3sge beams into my car. However, upon later reading i found out this engine is in RWD format, so how can it be used in my car? What could go wrong with this set up in my car? Is there any FWD gearbox/LSD combo that could work with this engine?

I'm thinking of saving up a few more months for the 3sge because it will have a good blend of power AND torque, which should allow me to see off heavily modded GZE's and the like Very Happy

Can anyone tell me the correct flow for a 4agze? From what i understand the waterpump pushes water through the block and up into the head. The two water outlets on the head then return the water to the bottom of the remote thermostat (the front head outlet also diverts to top radiator tube). If the thermostat opens, cool water is sucked from bottom of radiator into water pump. Is this ok understanding or am i pissing in wind?

Have people modified this layout with not using remote thermostat? What type of layouts are there????? cheers with any help

1UZ starter motor Fri, 07 February 2003 10:09 Go to previous messageGo to next message
My starter motor SOMETIMES will not engage the flywheel. It ticks like it is hitting a tooth on the flywheel instead of slipping between the teeth and cranking the engine. Only way to get it engaging is rotate the engine with a spanner, or move the flywheel a bit (roll the car forward and drop the clutch).

I think it'd start maybe 4 times in 5.

The flywheel is my old racing flywheel with the R154 gearbox, and has the V8 ringear shrunk onto it.

Could it be that it isn't lined up properly? Can I line it up better? Can I lube it up? Can I twist the starter a bit?

Keep in mind the starter is in the middle of the V and will not be easy to get out (maybe 3hrs off and back on). But the flywheel is even harder to get off (not dropping the gearbox!)

Hi all I'm I've got a Ke70 wagon and I'm planing on changing the engine to a 4AGZE I currently have a 4KC in it, will I have to change the fuel tank? or can I just change the fuel lines and put a electric fuel pump in? I'm thinking of a Bosch Hi-Volume inline E.F.I fuel pump will this be ok?

Also the Ke70 is a cable clutch so what clutch master should I look at getting? How hard is it to change.
Is there any tech guides on changing from cable to hydraulic?

Sorry about all the questions.

icon10.gif  ATTN: 18R-G** variant owners and know-alls!!!! Sun, 09 February 2003 08:41 Go to previous messageGo to next message
dudes!!

i have a minor querie and small problem. I have just purchased two head for the 18rg. One is a ported and polished 88230 head with 45 and 37mm aftermarket valves. The other is a 88250 head which is bog stock (45/37mm valves).
Now the engine i have in my old celica has an 88253 (!?!?) head. So WTF head is this??? So far i have only found (and inferred) this information:
11111-88230 = 18R-G
11111-88250 = 18R-GU
11111-88270 = 18R-GEU

do i have like an 18R-GRU head or something crazy like that!?!

Also would like to know what you guys would recommend i use as the head for my engine im rebuilding? I have read that the later model 18R-GU had a better head flow than the 18R-G, but would the porting and polishing on the 88230 head i have overcome these flaws and outperform a stock 88253 or 88250 head?

Im just lost for thoughts here guys!!!
Will post pics in a sec

Need New Alternator for 4A-GE Sun, 09 February 2003 12:09 Go to previous messageGo to next message
My alternator needs replacement.
I can get my one reconditioned but I read recently that 7M series alternators can be fitted to 4A-GE's and are a bit better. Has anyone here ever tried this? If so are there any problems with it? i.e melted wiring harness? and finally does anyone know any good auto electrician who can do this?

Brake upgrades for MX83 Mon, 10 February 2003 02:17 Go to previous messageGo to next message
Ok, seeing as though I'd rather get some brakes that I'll be able to get in australia. (eg supra etc...) I need to change the brakes to something with a bit more stopping power. Not that I have big problems with the current brakes, I just think i'll need them in the long run. So who has done this and how hard was it?
Can I get brake and caliper set ups that will just bolt in? cos if I can I'd prefer that to making up the brackets that have been spoken of before. plus I would also want them to fit in the current wheels if thats at all possible.

What discs and or calipers can I use as a bolt in?

I have been told that you can use the 2t front timing cover gasket in a 2tg, is this correct, any 1 know?

Has any one heard of '3bond' for glueing copper head gaskets down with, where can i get it, what else do others use?

Hi all,

I am using EMS on my 1g and the air temp reads between 1 to -51. On acceleration i get black smoke, which means it must be running bloody rich and the car moves like a slug. Sad

I have removed the air temp sensor and cleaned it with petrol and it hasn't made a difference!!

Does anyone know what the problem is and how do i fix it??

5me alternator Mon, 10 February 2003 10:43 Go to previous messageGo to next message
Hey guys do you think a 5me alternator...relatively low output would provide enough power to keep a 302v8 sparking...as well as a stereo and accs? Or am i better off going a 7mge one or something? Anybody know if the same belt pattern is found on a 7m one? 4 or 5 ridges on the pulley...grooved belt.

icon5.gif  Dash wiring (general) Tue, 11 February 2003 02:02 Go to previous messageGo to next message
My dash isn't lighting up at all (digital dash MA70).


My question is:

Of the wires from the dash into the plug (near the factory computer). Should there be a mains power, and an (mains) earth?

So two of the 12 on the plug I'm thinking of (flat plug, with the engine sensors on it - water temp, oil press, diagnostics chip) should be power and earth?

I really don't want to take the dash out to have a look at it. And I'm not good at reading wiring diagrams (I've tried a few).


Any help is appreciated.

Gidday,
Does anyone know if there's a fibreglass version of the Group A st185 bonnet? My flatmate wants one for her car and I thought this would be the best place to ask Smile Unless someone has an original they want to sell Smile ?

Thanks

Side mirrors, what car shares what? Fri, 14 February 2003 14:01 Go to previous messageGo to next message
I've been looking for a left mirror for my KE55 Corolla for awhile now, rumour has it that it was an option on the panelvans/wagons, and I've seen one or two KE35's running around with factory left mirrors. I've also noticed that the ones on the XT130/RT133 look similar, as do the ones on the Datsun 200B or something along those lines?

Anyone have any idea if these are indeed identical?
