3sgte and aftermarket parts - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #24033 6 posts Started by CheesyLobster
According to http://www.geocities.com/zegoat2000/THESWAP.html which has a ton of good info for a swap, the engine components you need are:
-the engine
-uncut wiring harness
-ecu
-ignitor
-ignition coil
-resistor pack
-maf unit
-top mount intercooler
My question is I know that you can get universal aftermarket ignition stuff. is there any reason you cant use this for the ignitor and ignition coil? im rather unknowledgeable about ignition in new cars.
Also, what is a resistor pack and what does it do? I searched on google and found nothing.
thanks for the info

resistor pack is for the injectors. i suppose you "could" use aftermarket igniton components..but not like theres any "need" for it. its pretty common to see the mr2 guys running upwards of 350-400whp on stock ignition stuff.
besides, you REALLY want a clip for a swap anyway. >wink.gif>

Resistor pack contains 2 solenoids. One for the fuel pump, one for the injectors.

And I personally would use OEM ignition parts.

coil, the 5sfe one should work.

ingitor, a 90-92 celica gt coil is the same part number as the 3s one (this is what im using).

resistor packs, you need the 3sgte specific ones.

AFM, you need the 3s one. if u dont have it, and new one from toyota cost about 800$

wiring harness, 3sgte one...no way around it.

ecu, 3sgte.
