ok need a little help. My friend and I are working on a 93 Toyota Tercel. We want to swap the engine. Heres the Deal we have a 4AGE out of his totaled MR2 . But i have been told its a bitch to rewire that and we are on a budget. So my idea was either a 22RE or 22RET. Any Ideas? Coments?

Thanks,
NAte

sorry had to

 

the 22R-E or 22RT-E would be ridiculous. what transmission did you have in-mind to use??? why do you want to swap the engine? the 5EF-E should be fine. the Tercel isn't exactly a performance car per se...especially with a 'budget' in play. a 4AG-E would be decent, but if you don't have the capability(ies) or money, then why bother. not trying to be negative, just real.

 

not sure on the tranny. but if im not mistaking there was a celica with a 22re not sure though. the 5EF-E in it has been destroyed to say the least the guy that owned the car before my friend did not take care of it. yeah kinda the point we wanted something different, which is asking for trouble. thanks for your help if anything else come to mind let me know.

 

hahaha .... That be tight yo...

 

yeah, but that particular Celica (a MkIII) was rear wheel drive.

plus a 4EFT-E is a great swap, but you already said you're on a budget and i think perhaps you guys are pretty mechanically/technically NOT inclined enough to be able to perform that particular swap. sorry, just calling it how i see it.

 

its cool man were not that is why we were keepin it cheap so if we screw up we dont lose much money. but yeah man i apricate the advise. what does a 4EFT-E usaly run

Got to start somewhere.

 

Theres a company out in Florida where my friend got his 4EFTE. It was done in his Paseo and it didn't set him back that much. I'll try and get the name later. He ran low 14's with bone stock everything.

 

That would be great thanks man
