I got an engine, not a clip. No I havnt worked out the bugs, I still get throttle cut pretty low in the RPM band. Mike (qatar) is sending me a connecter for the ignitor. I, how ever, dont think it is, and will be my only problem.
on the good side, mike worked his magic and the a/c still works. And even with it cutting pretty low, its still decently fast. |

how long untill you get a FMIC?
because with out a hood scoop, that stock top mount will heat soak really quickly. other than that, good job and have fun -------------------- 1994 Celica GT4 WRC Edition

I know about the heat soak, and no i dont have a scoop, maybe ill get one, maybe i wont. Might be awhile until I can get a FMIC, funds are a bit tapped out. And with a FMIC there is more turbo lag.

well I of course wouldnt have the air box cause I have the 185 engine, meaning the airbox dosnt quite fit. I had bought an Adapter for the AFM but it turns out it makes it a bit to long, so right now Im using a wire mesh over the AFM adapter.... I know this isnt a great idea, but its what I have until I can figure something out with the filter. |

Chrobis where in San Jose are you again? I need to race another swap celica to see how bad mine's really running, haha. I'm doing about 10.5-11:1 air fuel ratio right now under boost so it's running pretty $hitty.

there is on mine. pretty noticeable. it's a pretty large intercooler though with 2.5" piping so that's bringing it down. - aba |

hey aba I actually just moved, I live by oakridge now, you said you live off of cottle right, so were pretty close... My car isnt running yet though, well running to its full capability. edit: I am waiting for a map sensor, I think it will fix my problems. Everyone doing the swap should get a 205 engine... they are harder to find, the wiring is harder, but there are less sensors and stuff to break... Like my problem may be my AFM, which the 205 dosnt have. This post has been edited by Chrobis: Apr 14, 2004 - 1:19 AM |

Man...2nd gen vs 3rd gen right in san jose. That woulda been good.... IF I hadn't been ****ing with the car this afternoon, boosted hard a few times in a row and then heard something pop, followed by a big cloud of smoke out the back.
Still runs, stills seems to boost, but it feels a big laggier.. Will do a compression test tomorrow morning to see if the block is fine. If I blew a ring, it's getting parted out. I spent $2k on a block rebuild already and this car is going in the trash if it's blown again. Especially considering I've been running it super rich so there's no need of this. I"m not even boosting past stock. Hopefully it's just the turbo. - aba This post has been edited by abatardi: Apr 14, 2004 - 1:29 AM |

I'll have to clean it up first :-P
haha now that i think about it, this car has NOTHING going for it right now. the body is in **** condition, the paint is chipping, and i'm about 90% sure i blew my turbo oil seals yesterday. haha Where are you at during the day? I work on Hamilton Ave from about 10 to 7-8 or so. - aba |
