OK, I'm kinda lazy right now after 3 hours of trying to figure out why the door kept crushing the fenders on the celica when you opened the dam door!

Anyways this post is to help out those who are swapping a 4age Silvertop into there ST celicas. Please contribute if you guys know more, but for now this is all I can jot down.

I am running without A/C and P/S. Whitout P/S it is a real pain to turn corners ( next to impossible) but it is a real challenge that no normal person can do. The ISCV on my engine does not seem to work, cause my ECU is kinda fried/repaired.
so I run without this connected as well.

Anyways, some parts that are interchangable with the 4age is:

1.)Toyota Celica GTS throttle cable from a 4th Generation. Will fit without any modifications. Direct bolt on and long enough!

2.)AFM from same car, or differenct toyota cars with the same connectors.

3.) COR

What I know:

1.)You can keep you original fuse box and everything will work, provided that you know what your splicing and what not.

2.) I'm not too sure, but if you can get a hold of a 16V alternator, waterpump, and all the mounting bolts. You don't have to cut into the ECU's temp sensor to receive a TEMP signal for the car.

3.) you will need to splice the connector on the alt. on the ST to work with your wiring.

For now this is all I can contribute. I still have to piece my car back together from my swap and although my engine bay is super messy. At least I can find everything I need!

I will post a link where you guys can download data for the 4age, wiring, and 7afe wiring and misc. photos.

Without A/C im ok, I figure ill just open the windows at full blast. P/S..........Super hard to turn and with my Low profile tires, I can feel every pebble on the road. Its a pain in da As.

Another thing. Two 12V wires must be ran through the whole system of your wiring to the ECU otherwise you suffer from something called idle lag. and this doesn't count the battery wire.
