So I was talking to this mechanic about really sooping up my engine itself. I was talking about stronger internal components, also boaring my block as well. The whole 9 yards. Now I know there are very few aftermarket parts for the 7afe, and virtually no upgraded engine internal parts. Soooo, I thought about switching out some performance parts w the corrolla . I know the corrolla has a 7afe. I also know they have a legendary 86 model, (ae86). Does anyone know of any switchable parts that I could use. Maybe find some lighter weight flywheel in corrolla trani. I Havnt looked Into corrolla parts so if anyone knows any I could use please tell me.
If all else fails w the corrolla parts . I plan on forging my bottom end , but don't know who could do that for me . I know the 7a rods are really weak and I actually got thus idea reading a post on a dif Celi site . I also know you need to change your stock ecu when you change major engine components like pistons or cams. The compression rate will fur sure b dif. I read some posts on here and was thinking of buying this ecu called squirt I think it was . If anyone knows a good am ecu, hmu. |

the 7a and the 5s are both economy motors, like previously said there heads just arent made for real hp gains. you would think the 5s being a 2.2l would make some power with bolt ons and such but its not made that way, its not like a honda h22 or b18 lol..
i have the 3sgte and it is ballssss man, thing hauls asss but if i had to do it over again id seriously consider the 1mz or 3mz vvti as its a cheaper swap compared to the 3sgte and has great torque and power, put that in a lighter car like the celica compared to 4door family car your going to have a fun ride and will prob be cheaper and def make more power then a 7afte build. just IMO. -------------------- st205 powered ss3 coupe
