4A-GE swap in L-touring

[zedcyborg]

gonna put in a 4A-GE in an L-touring...wanna know if the old axles will work...don't think they will, so just wanna make sure...and what else will i need from the BZ...gonna swap the rotors for front and back...just not sure what else i should get...any advice would be appreciated...

its will become your ultimate driving experience.
unless you have driven a 3s or some 1G-GTE from a supra there is no other TOYOTA engine that is as much fun

Somebody here must have done the swap before and can advise of details, it always is safer if you have the front cut though .... just in case

p.s easy swap ...

Yes,the old axles will work, I used stock AE80 axles on a 4age!!, All 'A' series gearboxes will work with the 4age , if it's the 4agze, you may have a problem!!

[ray2cool]

them stock axles could take that pressure form the 4ag?

That would ultimately depend on how you drive.

I wonder if the 4age will fit in the Corolla Wagon........seems similar to the L-Touring

it is a snug fit make sure and service ur started on the 20vave before installin eh taking it out afterwards is hell as i did find out

also the axels will work back and this engine will bolt in very esily
also take ut ur thermostat
now toyta are very funy cars some engine aloow u to take out the thermostat toyota hates it
get a new thermostat for thsi engine or take it out anyone u prefer

also heads up parts for this engine i very hard to get

thanks...
found a black top 5 fwd with harness, ECU, axles, shifter, clutch cylinder and pedals all for $7300...think i'm gonna go with that...saves me the runnin around and findin parts which gonna add up to more anyway...interested in finding out what size exhaust to run thou...did some reasearch and found that 60.5 mm was an optimal size (2.37 inches)...would still like to kno what ppl use here thou...

[Raziel]

Zed ... go with the 60.5, I believe that's the size the HKS/Apexi exhaust for the 20V is ...

The engine requires a lot of flow for a NA ....

[Evolved Automotive Ltd]

thats correct my Gt came with the apexi

If you have the cash to buy a brand name muffler, why not just get the TRD barrel?

[blu-rolla]
