Ryouxrs's st205 conversion - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #78370 56 posts Started by Ryouxrs
ok, so finally an update, got a set of rims and tires to fit the gt4 brakes, and hopfully hold the power down, i went with a set of 245/40r17's and am completely supprised that they even fit under the car! here are some pics. in about 2-3 weeks i should have the gasket kits to start tearing the motor down and getting it ready to go in.

ok everyone, long time since the last update, but alot has happend with the celica, heres just a teaser of one project completed...

just sent off my wiring harness today to tweak, soon to have more updates!

the rims are enkei tarmac's in a 17x8 not sure of the offset.

and yes, that is a car lift. lol, it was mostly the power window and door lock conversion i was trying to show. wink.gif

ok, small update, fuel pump is here, meaning the harness isnt far behind, but i do have one question, will the 3rd gen mr2 clutch work with the awd tranny? any input would be apreciated

Lift Addict!! ^_^----------------------
Yes and yes. Just FYI i would recommend using a toyota TOB though.

ok, finaly an update. i recieved the harness back from dr. tweak today, and it looks great! money well spent. on a side note though, when putting the harness back on the trans, and laying it out i noticed that there seems to be a plug missing on the harness for one of the resistor packs, it should be a male 2 pin connector but i dont see it anywere. not needed?? ill post a pick up in a sec. propably gonna call tweak'd tomorow to figure it out.

answerd my own question, this is the fuel pump resistor, so why wasnt it left pinned into the engine harness is my next question...

Lift Addict!! ^_^----------------------
on the standard car that goes somewhere beside the battery on a support bracket by the radiator.. good thing they didnt hang that by the wires, its not very strong

i know where it goes, and that it used to be connected to the engine harness before i sent it, but when i got the converted harness back from tweak that connector no longer exsists on the harness, and im not sure why. waiting for a call back.

That seems a bit odd. You absolutely need it unless tweak is going to "hotwire" your fuel pump...
I called, and they said its not needed, so I guess ill find out. kindasad.gif

well it has been a LONG time since I posted on this thread, thought id post a few short clips. (sry for the crappy cell phone vid.)

from a roll in first to third, lots of wheel spin.

from a roll in 3rd.

so here is the final list of what has been done so far:

3rd gen 3sgte and awd tranny. (still fwd. welded center diff.)
super strut conversion up front
gsc s1 cams with ats racing cam gears still set to "0"
engle valve springs
stage 3 dual friction clutch with 10lb flywheel
re-worked cruise control to function with the 3s swap
enkei tarmac 17x8 rims with bfg kdw ntII tires in size 245/40zr17
c's short shifter
tweaked performance conversion harness. 7a-3s

probably a bunch that im forgetting but this is the 3s swap atleast. happy viewing everyone!

30 to (almost) 80 in one gear, nice!

I wasn't even topping it out because I hit traffic. 3rd gear is really long in that transmission.

Lift Addict!! ^_^----------------------
Ok!! Once again its been a really long time since my last post but after almost two years of having the swap completed I've finally gotten the celica on the dyno!!! I have to admit, what i saw was a complete surprise for still not being tuned, and I'm disappointed to say.. still no gauges either... but the numbers she put down and with how she looks now (car was totaled again this winter...) i finally found my name for this project. as the title description now states. heres a few pictures and a dyne vid. ill post up the graphs a little later on. oh, and if your still reading at this point i found out today that yes, with a sniffer test, no tune, a leaking plug wire and a crappy off the shelf catalyst the 3sgte will fast pass the colorado smog test!! colorado is second only to California with its emissions standards, so all the worry worts with emissions issues, fear not! well, enjoy everyone!









and here is the teaser video biggrin.gif
final dyno pull 4th gear with zero correction factor at 5,000 feet

That's a nice looking downside you got there
heres the numbers one is corrected at 1.225% and the other is uncorrected. all these pulls were done in 4th gear, 84 degree temps with 30% humidity, 7k stopping point (with this transmission thats all the way up to 130 mph!) and at 5,000 feet on a mustang dyno. let me know what you think!

292/318 uncorrected!!


358/390 corrected!!

that would be due to my lack of information gathering, a full time job and 18 credits of college courses all at the same time. lol
ill have to pay better attention for when the next one comes up, id love to get back into that scene, even if my car looks like a pile.
