So, I bought my first Rav4 about a month or 2 ago. I've been in the celica world for a long time and I wanted a winter beater. As it turns out, the 3s decided that it was going to start Rod knocking like a beast. Needless to say, car needed work.
I had an old 5s just sitting on a pallet in the garage collecting dust. it came from a 94 celica, and it ran when it was pulled. Now that I've got everything out of the Rav, and from what i'm told, the 5s block will need ground on the back to make space for the transfer case, but otherwise it should be pretty straight forward I think. I haven't had time to research everything... but to be honest there isn't much out there on this particular swap because there aren't that many gains to be had. For me the gains are purely $$$. if you guys see anything glaring, PM me and let me know if you would.... The Plan 1) swap wiring harness from 3sfe to 5sfe 2) "depending on how the ecu works out", swap over exhaust manifold because of OBD1/OBD2 differences in the model years 3) hook tranny and T-case to 5sfe ( grind block as needed, additionally brace as needed for missing mounting points) 4) repair subframe rust, mount engine and tranny to subframe - reinstall in car 5)hook everything back up including 3sfe ecu to run engine. ** Pray ecu can deal with extra stroke/air and change fuel delivery to accomodate** 6) ** pray that i don't need to swap injectors to do this to get engine to running** - Does anyone know if there is much in the way of difference between the injectors? basically I'm looking to run the 5sfe like a stroked 3sfe. Should work I'd think. -------------------- ![]() |

The more I've researched today it shouldn't really matter if it's sequential or batch fire if the quantity of fuel is the same. and this is where it gets weird.
Everything here says not enough fuel. Larger engine 2.0 -> 2.2L, so 50cc additional air volume per cylinder Smaller injectors, computer is set to run a pulse width for a 250cc injector, the 5s injectors are 220cc. when you do the relationship simple math of injector size vs displacement and assuming the same pulse width, I need 20% more fuel than what I'm getting today to make stoich. But when I pull the plugs, they are coated black and smell of fuel because it's not firing and when it does run the tail pipe smells rich. so which is it? perhaps not enough fuel to allow combustion, that eventually just builds up and causes the plugs to foul? -------------------- ![]() |
