Topic #47020 37 posts Started by macavely
Ok this post is about your dream swap with in the allowed rules ..

1. Can only be a inline 4
2. Can Not change the FWD of the car

MY Dream Swap

Engine : 3S-GE Black Top, Light weight Forged Crank Shaft, Forged Rods , Forged Pistons 12:1, Titanium Valve Springs , Valves, Ported and Polished Head, Cold Air Intake , Full Race Exhaust Head back, ECU Top Secret, 40 Shot of Nitrous.

I'll add more later..



Whats your

[TeamNJCT
i dont like your first rule. mine would be a 2grfe 3.5l v6. if i have to choose a i4, id go with an st205 3sgte.


I think Bigfoot is blurry, that's the problem. It's not the photographer's fault. Bigfoot is blurry. And that's extra scary to me, because there's a large, out-of-focus monster roaming the countryside.
if it has to be a 4-banger... i guess the 6-speed 4a-ge blacktop would be easiest.

ss-iii splitters and 404 skirts areon. which means i need to update my sig.
I'd go with the 2ZZ motor 6 speed turbo'd with water injection and running 10 psi daily.

Ive been waiting for some one to swap a K20 into one of our cars. I think a K20 with a jackson supercharger with a big boost pulley, forged internals, port and polished, AEM fuel rail, Sard injectors, Skunk 2 headers and valve train peices, a 50shot of nitrous, 6speed would be fun

I built a guys car when i was working as a co-op student that was pushing 400BHP in his RSX as a daily driver. That thing was fun

^ theres soooo many issues with the 2zz boosted...it wasnt designed for it. it comes highly tuned from kawisaki ( or yamaha...whoever) and boost is pretty hard on that motor.

RRRRRRRR, wrong answer. That's what I use to think too, but people have really been making it work lately. I didn't think they could, but they are. Everyone hated that motor at first. I read were the 1zzfe was a better platform for modifications. I stand by my original post though. But I would rather just keep the 5sfe more than anything. Swapping is just about pointless for the Celica, at least for how I use it.

I am with you about sticking with the 5sfe. But I really like the 2ZZ motor mainly because of lift and people are making the motor work well with boost. People talk about the 1zz being better with boost, but you won't get as much power out of it compared to the 2zz motor.

Honda K20 for me. That'd be a blast.

New Toyota project coming soon...
Which K20 though? If it was the K series dealy, I'd go with a K24/K20A1 Frankenstien. Plus turbo.

It's really unsafe to boost more than 8psi on the 2zz.. it's pretty vulnerable to boost with stock internals.

would that dream swap of urs be for the tC mac? smile.gif

for me i'd love to have a 3sgte under the hood, oh wait i have 1. YESS!! tongue.gif nah but i'd love to have another celi with a redtop 3sge in it.

bboy

..(formerly daily driven) 3S-GTE powered celica currently set @ 12psi..
Twin screw supercharger on a 5sfe. Not for the gains, just that it isn't all that common.

One o'dem crazy Canadian freaks, eh?

If it had to be a toyota motor:
blacktop 3SGE and e153 lsd trans.

if i could choose anything, it would be a HARD choice between an SR20DET or a K24 with roller ITBs.

do you know who i am, mr. worley?

great thing about this thread it can be an 4banger from any motor company .. GM. Ford, Honda , Toyota, Mitsubishi, BMW, VW .. ect..

I guess I would want a 4agze with a Sc14 supercharger.
IMO... big turbos and superchargers that make a lot of power/torque are pretty obsolete in a FWD car. If you've ever raced a high torque FWD car... you never really get to touch the entire powerband because the cars are just too squirly in the corners to handle well with big torque. Understeer FTL.

That said... my idea set-up... K20A, custom tune, custom rods, custom pistons, would like at least 12:5 compression, ITB's, reinforced crank, cams that can make power upwards of 10K rpms, and a stronger tranny with a killer 2 way LSD.

see this thread need more post like this..

my dream swap will be:

V6 engine with a 6 gear transmission, just to keep with the whole 6gc thing.

But to stick to the rules. I would say my idea swap will be a high rev'ing black top beams. Nothing can beat the itb at redline.
5sfe with custom cams, Full EMS, Injectors, Pistons to increase compression to about 11:1, peak power set at 6200rpm, ITBs, e152 trans with lightwieght flywheel, plus all supporting mods and other little things like pulleys and what not.

My dream swap.... My celica with a Geo 1.0L 3 banger.... Stock..

On a serious note I would like to swap a 4A-GE 20V blacktop 6sp manual. Port and polish, valve job, new high comp pistons. Reinforced cranshaft. new valves and retainers, cams, velocity stacks, stage 3 clutch, lightweight flywheel etc.

Hell, why not two 3 bangers under the hood. One supercharged, the other turbo!
