Thermostat/3sgte parts question - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #41506 2 posts Started by elvasoshexai
just curious... how many people here switch to a colder thermostat for a 5sfte setup?

it's cause i don't see this posted much...

it's in the big 5sfte post but... not much info on it... like how much colder etc

and also... um.. when you get 3s parts (like oil pan... exhaust mani... 2bar map etc)... was just curious... does it matter if it's off an mr2 or an st185 or an st205?

none.

the only thing that matters is the oil pan, try and get a alltrac one.
some of the mr2s come with a oil level sensor, and unless the sensor is there when you buy it, you'll have an extra hole in your oil pan that you will need to seal up somehow.
everything else dont matter.
