does anyone know if the 5sgte engine fits perfectly in place of the 7afe? thanks

5S-GTE? Do you mean the 5S-FE(possibly with a turbo kit)? The 5S-FE would not fit perfectly, because it's an s-series engine and therefore uses different engine mounts, a different transmission, and possibly different axles. If you have an ST and you're considering a swap, you'd be much better to go with a 20 valve 4A-GE or a 4A-GZE, which both drop right in and can use your stock axles and transmission.

>> what cars use those engines?

The 20 valve 4A-GE can be found in the JDM AE101 and AE111 Toyota Corolla. The 4A-GZE can be found stateside in some older MR2s, and I'm not sure what other vehicles it's in.

Thanks dude. I'll have to do some looking around.

here is a list of all the vehicles that carried a 4age and/or 4agze

USDM corollas didnt have the 4agze just the 4age and the 4agec

4agze
8/87 - 12/89 1st gen MR2
5/87 - 6/91 Levin
6/91 - 5/95 Levin
5/87 - 6/91 Sprinter Trueno
6/91 - 5/95 Sprinter Trueno

4age
12/84 - 12/89 1st gen MR2 this is the 4agelc version of the motor
8/84 - 7/87 Corolla this is the 4agec version of the motor
8/87 - 6/91 Corolla
6/91 - 5/95 Corolla JDM
5/95 - 8/00 Corolla JDM

THe Levin, Sprinter Trueno, Sprinter, FX and the Sprinter Ciero where all JDM versions of the Corolla.

There is also an engine for one of the Levins... not sure what the engine code is or the years produced that was a N/A version of the 4age that was BAD ASS.. it was 4 inline four cylinder that had 8.. yeah thats right 8 spark plugs... kinda weird but worked really well... will try and find more info about it.

I went and looked at some of those engines. At the web page I looked at, the supercharged engine was the least powerful. Is that correct?

supercharged was less powerful than stock? I think they have it backwards

was the 4Age 20v ever offered in america?
