Im really getting more and more interest into just turboing my 5sfe engine, i was checking out some turbo kits on ebay for an 5sfe engine.. and 1 guy is selling an rebuilt turbo kit taken out from his 5sfe engine for only 200 bucks plus 60 shipping.. so im just wondering if this is a good idea, not in terms of buying his rebuilt engine.. but turboing my engine period. I mean i still want an Gt4, but im thinking maybe ill hold that off till i graduate and just buy another GT and dp the swap.. b/c i really love celicas ... and I also think I can do it myself!!!

heres the link to the turbo kit taken from an 5sfe engine:

OK, so you need Cam shaft seals.....and if I had to guess what a CANG seal is I would guess a rear main seal which I guess he was trying to call a "CRANK SEAL" thats my best guess. Wires you can get from Toyota, but I don't have the part number on me. About the Gauge cluster....why not use the one in the car? And all parts can be bought here http://www.kbox.ca/catalog/

PS. I highly recommend putting in adjustable cam gears, or at least an adjustable exhaust cam gear. You will kick yourself in the ass later if you don't do it now, I promise you that wink.gif .

LOL - he meant Crank seal - I've heard Japanese men say it that way before. If you haven't already done so I suggest getting both the seals for the crank - like Jim said - you'll kick yourself later if you don't.

We all understand the money game. But just make sure you do it before you put the motor back in, otherwise putting the cam gears in while the motor is in the car is like doing a "full" timing job. Not easy. You can pick up both cam gears from ATS for well under 200 bucks. Just a friendly heads up. Best of luck with your swap.

Yea.. but unfortunatly it looks like its gonna be after he puts in the engine, b/c I already ordered those seals on sunday.. so I believe he is already putting it in, and thats my only car and im in college so i need that car back asap.. frown.gif Im just gonna take it easy though.. i prolly wont ever go past 60 with it.. hopefully that can buy me time for the cams

Its all good. If you had the money, and were willing to wait on putting it back in for another couple of days, the CAM GEARS have nothing to do with the cam seals. You can install cam gears, even if your cam seals are already installed....just a little FYI. why don't you want to go past 60, whats your thoughts/reasoning behind that behind that.

oh jus wanna be cautious.. the car isnt 100% tuned.. plus i dont have the ST205 hood yet.. so i dunno what the consequences since there will be no air flow from the hood to the intercooler

Ok I must be missing something. Is this a "stock" ST205 going in.....Meaning stock turbo, stock ECU, and stock fuel? Because if it is, you car IS "100%" tunned. In fact, you car will be "100%" tunned up until you reach 340whp, which wont happen UNTIL you upgrade your turbo. As for the hood, it isn't needed to "cool down" the intercooler, because the stock water to air intercooler doesn't need air to pass through it to keep it cool, thats what the heat exchanger in the front bumper is for. The vent on the stock GT4 hood is for helping heat escape the engine bay. So if all said above is "stock" as I mentioned, dont be afraid to open it up......it wants you to, so might as well give it what it wants. LOL, or maybe thats what I want. Anyway, have fun with your new setup, at any boost level below 17psi, you want have any issues with that setup.

not if he has a GT. The GT has basically the same pass side mount as the 205, the ST is completely different.

Nope - ST-204 for the GT [GTS in Canada] and AT-200 for the ST.
ST-202 is the everywhere else 2.0l 3S-GE 6GC whether it be Beams or not.

ok... imma try n solve the problem b4 i even see my car sunday.. my mechanic said the engine is too big... im thinking it may the hood issue. I still had the st204 hood on the car, the st205 hood is still on its way.. maybe the intercooler is not allowing the hood to close.. u guys think this may be what the problem is??

I don't think that is a problem bc Corey Silver94CelicaOwner has the st205 swap in his car ...........he has the stock hood and I believe he had zero fitment issues as far as the hood goes..you can always look up his build thread to be sure.

EDIT: you should go by the shop and take plenty of picture and get them up...I would have the members on here look at the progress......maybe they could see if anything stands out that the mechanic might be doing wrong

case in point.

There are a bizzlion other things you don't know about your car and the motor you're having put into it. Research and knowledge is the one thing you can't buy or not have with a situation like this. Also, I would never hand my car over to a guy for this kind of work to be done and not have great communication with him. There are going to be issues/problems that pop up and with you and him not being to understand each other, eek. That scares me.

and with that said, as Shannon said the IC shouldn't be problem with a stock hood.
If you have any other problems/questions, post them up. I'm sure we'll all try to help.

Hey guys,

Ok I took some pictures when i visited my car for the first time in about 2 weeks.. My mechanic has my old engine out and is finally ready to put the new motor in.. we resolved the engine size issue, so hes ready 2 roll! i have an 3sgte album on photbucket with the pics, heres the link:

http://s396.photobucket.com/albums/pp42/GT...4/3sgte%20swap/

I would say the conversion will be about 65% complete when the motor is fully swapped.. the rear end is about 90% converted

Well thats your opinion batman.. you go by yours.. I go by mine.. Im doing a complete celica GT4 project.. so when its its all said and done ill have the AWD drive conversion also.. thus the reason for the badge. Im not doing an "GT-2" project.. I want that AWD power.. or else i would have looked for that badge smile.gif.. thanks for your opinion though

lol naw man thats too extreme for an AWD conversion haha.. but i do know someone thats cutting their whole frint end in half and welding in an 3sgte front nose.. lololololol crzy but he insists.. but yea hopefully when this 1st stage is done ill save up for that AWD drive conversion.. i think it may cost more than the swap though.. on ebay this guy was selling the st205 diffs, subframe, and axels for like $2500.. so put that with the price of installation.. eek imma need at least $5000 saved up lol.. and thanks 4 the complement man i appreciate it..

if you do have AWD I would agree you should have that emblem on your car.

Since you don't have AWD "yet" why not just wait put the emblem on when it's completed, or just keep it on and be a ricer, it's up to you.

everyone who owns a GT has a GT-2 (GT with 2 wheel drive), you just have a GT with a st205 motor in it, ...almost. Do you have the GT-Four brakes ? or maybe the GT-Four gas tank/rear floor/SS suspension/ect.. or just a US GT with a st205 motor in it ?...almost rolleyes.gif

just be realistic about it and just don't badge it a "GT-Four" when it's nowhere close to being one. That's ghey.

I see another robdrummer in the making...

Im really getting more and more interest into just turboing my 5sfe engine, i was checking out some turbo kits on ebay for an 5sfe engine.. and 1 guy is selling an rebuilt turbo kit taken out from his 5sfe engine for only 200 bucks plus 60 shipping.. so im just wondering if this is a good idea, not in terms of buying his rebuilt engine.. but turboing my engine period. I mean i still want an Gt4, but im thinking maybe ill hold that off till i graduate and just buy another GT and dp the swap.. b/c i really love celicas smile.gif... and I also think I can do it myself!!!

heres the link to the turbo kit taken from an 5sfe engine:

i think u should just do the swap since you have the motor there already with you...there is no point in spending more money when u can dump the extra cash your going to use on turboing your 5s...but its really up to u if you want to do that..

turbo 5s or 3rd gen swap, i choose the third gen swap anyday..

i may.. all i need to get will after that will b the fuel pump, clutch, and the intercooler.. the seller is saying to get the side mount intercooler, they cost more but they look easier to install rather than the rear mount or top mount

lmao art

and you said "awd power" before...

from all of my experiances, awd actually takes away from your power. not to mention all tha trotating mass and weight to lug around at speeds above 40mph when traction is no longer an issue.

i sure hope you dont boost the **** outta that 3s and end up sending something through the hood of your car. would be sad to see such a good engine go to waste

and x2 on that rob drummer comment lol

I didn't check the link but alot of these "Turbo Kits" come from the MR2 guys - this is probably why he told you to get a sidemount intercooler. You want a FMIC for this project - it works well and is sort of an install it and forget about it thing.

Bro, really... wtf is a rear mount intercooler?
Its really clear that you have done zero research into this as you dont even understand the basics.
Save yourself a headache and a blown motor. You are nowhere near ready to do a swap or a turbo kit.
And I mean this in the nicest way possible.

I can't agree more with Lagos,

and yes it is a legit turbo kit. basic bolt on, perfect project for winter to break, get some friends that are into cars, just like you and give it a shot. this will be an experience you'll never forget, and you'll learn a lot.


Good luck and keep us posted, take a lot pf pictures and post any questions, we are here to help.

It's an MR2 thing - applied to a Celica it would be rediculous to the extreme.

dude, it sounds like you need to do a little more research, but don't listen to everyone, you may find out the hard way with what you buy or it might all work out. Good luck and I hope it goes well.

ok, imma break this down, real simple like, so you can understand this.

that quote, sums it up pretty nicely.

when people like myself, and others, spend month after month (YEARS in some cases..i know it took me a solid year of research before i turboed), researching, studying, preparing, and executing these projects, and then take the time to present these results to the community, in the form of detailed writeups, that include pics and in some cases step by step instructions, and they are stickyed to the top of each forum for everyone to use, and people like you come around, and want every answer handed to them on a silver platter, expecting us to say "wow cool. your gonna turbo, heres the parts you need, this is how you install it" when all the info is right there if you take 5 minutes to look for it, it really gets old, and quite frankly, is insulting.
the guys that have been here awhile, and have been there and done that, and are still running, are that way BECAUSE they took the time to learn, research and do things the right way.
those that dont, end up like you, throwing money at projects when you dont really know what your even spending your money on, how this stuff is supossed to work, how it fits together, and why it works the way it does.
hell, at least learn the basics, then come and ask any minor details you need to know, at least that way, it APPEARS like your trying to do somthing for yourself.
to be honest, im pretty much sick of having to hold you guys' hands, guiding you every step of the way with these projects, when the info is right there, in the stickys if you would just READ THEM.

i dont need you, or ANYONE to kiss my ass. i DID the research, i spent the HOURS and hours reading, printing, studing, and applying what i learned. you do the same.
show a bit of smarts, READ THE STICKYS, PM members if needed, THEN come back and ask a question if you need help with somthing.
im willing to bet people would be more than willing to give you good advice that you could actually use then.
dont believe me?
PM 6strngs , better yet, search and read ALL of his topics.
that should let you know where you need to be with all of this.
look, ill even set you on the road. here is a link, that has every topic 6strngs has started.

There is a LOT of good information on this site about turboing you 5s, I have to agree that the best thing you can do for yourself is research, take your time and just read. Turboing the 5s is probably the most covered/accurate/in depth topic on this site, there really is EVERYTHING you need to know written on here.

These are in the stickies, read them several times and you will have a better handle of what you need to do, and the parts that are needed
http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=5574

For the most part you dont have many options to chose from so you will need most of the parts listed. Your options are turbo selection and fuel managment. Everything else is pretty much straight up. Like Shannons, she has most of the parts listed but went with a t3 turbo and an SAFC

When I originally wanted to turbo on celicatech...i had no idea what i was doing and def was jumping into it way to early...i wish i wasnt a stubburn young kid who thought "no all these ppl who no what they are talking about are wrong." It would have prob worked out much better for me.

Hey I still need to learn alot..lucky Jim has been doing a lot of research bc it saves me...but i really should do more of my own.

I no so much more then when i first when at it but i don't no nearly enough...so really take some time and read some stickys and learn what ur getting into bc its no walk in the park.

Well since its OBVIOUS presure or anyone else doesnt know any history about me, besides the 1 time i decided to post something on this site last summer, Ill give you guys my run down.. first time I starting reading this site.. aug 06, when I first bought my car. I looked at what other ppl did to their cars, and I said to myself hmm maybe sometime down the road when I get some money Ill try and do something like a turbo or a swap as well.. First time i read wilson's how to turbo ur 5sfe was jan 07.. thats when I was working full time.. looked at the basic parts needed and recommended.. sounds interesting.. but wouldnt a swap be easier?? probably a month later i looked at defgeph's post on how he swapped a 2nd gen gt4 into his st.. Which is probably the best sticky on this site in my opinion.. I know that sticky backwards and have it as one of my favorites.. it took roughly a year to determine what i wanted to do.. but i made a descision and went for a 3rd gen gt4 engine swap.. like i keep trying to tell ppl here.. MONEY and TIME was the reason the swap was failure.. not my lack of research.. if ppl would spend less time being a follower and assuming things about me, maybe i would have avoided having to defend myself every post I put up.. Presure, thats cool that you spent 4years plus on your research and that you actually had the TIME to had done your turbo, but unfortunatly not everyone has the time to do stuff as intense as a turbo or swap you know, nevertheless i was thrilled that you guys had done these amazing projects.. i commend you.. despite your opinions about me.. and trust me.. I know a great more about my car then you guys think.. oh and my intercooler questions was because I wanted to explore other options than FMIC... of course thats the best bet.. but the design is very time consuming.. which was why i was trying to work around that.. I really wish ppl would get a grip on soo many smart comments... i should have just stayed underground like my friends warned me.. but they are members of a BMW forum.. and I thought celica owners are more friendly.. apparently that isnt the case..

I really wish ppl would get a grip on soo many smart comments... i should have just stayed underground like my friends warned me.. but they are members of a BMW forum.. and I thought celica owners are more friendly.. apparently that isnt the case..



what?

dude, did you even READ what i wrote? who said anything about 4 years of research?

you are a moron, period.

QUOTE
probably a month later i looked at defgeph's post on how he swapped a 2nd gen gt4 into his st.. Which is probably the best sticky on this site in my opinion.. I know that sticky backwards and have it as one of my favorites.. it took roughly a year to determine what i wanted to do.. but i made a descision and went for a 3rd gen gt4 engine swap.. like i keep trying to tell ppl here.. MONEY and TIME was the reason the swap was failure.. not my lack of research.. if ppl would spend less time being a follower and assuming things about me, maybe i would have avoided having to defend myself every post I put up..

for someone who did a year of research, you certainly dont show it at all.

dude, are you just saying stuff, thinking that sooner or later, we'll forget everything we know, and become as silly as you?

the design is very time consuming?
what is LESS time consuming? a REAR mount intercooler?

The difference between owning and modding a celica over a bmw is simple, CASH. Celicas are cheap to buy where as a bmw is much more. That means more kids will end up with a celica over a bmw and asking the same questions day in and day out. It becomes very redundent when the simple truth is everything is covered in the stickies and searches. If you can ask it someone else already has. Manny has been around since day ONE trying his best to answer anything people throw at him. It becomes difficult when no matter how much advice you give some people they dont listen and 2 months later theres a "My cars making a noise with blue smoke" post from the same people jumping head first into a project they had no buisness getting into in the first place.

presure, ur hopeless dude.. whoever appointed u as a moderator needs to be shot. you obviously have no reading comprehension, your replys to me dont even make sense. you call me a failboat.. when the only thing ive failed at is noticing how much of an a$$ you are. So just keep quoting me and replying with "moron" or "failboat".. b/c to be honest its very humorous to see someone as old as you arguing with me.. and your supposed to be this wise all knowing moderator.. laugh.gif "lames need to be arrested" couldnt agree more lol. biggrin.gif

The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness. For he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you.
