Is there anything you could do to a 7afe besides turbo
7a performance parts? - 6G Celicas Forums
Sorry to disappoint you but there's nothing you can do that'll make a notable improvement outside of forced induction. It's an economy engine through and through, hence the FE designation. The best thing you can do is work on things like suspension and handling, and then enjoy getting into the upper 30's while doing it. There are hybrids using the 5-valve 4A or the 4A-GZE but they require a lot of work and at the end of the day you're better off doing a 1MZ, 3S-GTE, or BEAMS swap.

Upgrade the suspension. You'll have more fun that way. strut bars, sway bars, endlinks, coilovers, poly bushings. etc.
*1997 Celica ST - 3SGE Greytop BEAMS*1977 Celica RA29 - Classic Cruiser*2005 Matrix AWD - dedded but still hanging around like a ghost2019 Rav4 XLE Premium - Sports mode is fun.
The 7GC short shifter is another good upgrade and it's inexpensive.

Youwwon't notice much in the way of HP gaines. However if you through on a header SRI and a High-Flow cat it will help free up some of the restrictions on the flow of the motor and it will definitely feel like it has somemmore pep in its step. Worked well on the corolla which has the 7a

are there any decent brands that still make struts and sway bars? i either find those cheap china makes on ebay, or ridiculously priced trd stuff..
