4AGZE Swap into a 6th Gen Celica Options

[Dr_Tweak]

Tuesday, July 25th, 4pm to 12am

Engine resealed with new timing belt, ready to go. In the background, the victim waits...



AHHHH! It's the black Celica of DEATH!!!



Remember kids, when swapping to a 4AGZE engine, you'll need the backing plate off the 7AFE engine. A new rear main seal is a must too!



New SPEC clutch installed and the tranny swapped over from the Celica. Yes, I know it's ugly, but around here we make things that go fast, not things that are pretty

Hi my name is Richard, and this was my car and my swap. First I would like to say Dr. Tweak did a very good job. Every thing works from my P/S to my A/C. Very professional work. He gave me a set price for labor and stuck to it even though it took many more hours then what i was charged.

Now to the car. I was very disapointed in the numbers on the dyno which was 130hp 145 ft/t. after drivng it i wasnt so upset it was smooth and quite a bit quiker then my modded 7afe. Although I noticed my boost was max psi at only 7lbs i knew there had to be something wrong. We figured out that it was my intercooler leaking a lil. so hopes went up a lil. on my 9.5 hour drive home i noticed my boost not holding at 7 and it just kept getting weaker adn weaker. After I made it home i checked the belt to the S/C and it was slipping a lot. I tighted it down nice and tight took it for a test drive and WOW

IT WAS A WHOLE NEW CAR BOOSTING AROUND 9.5 10 AND IT SCREAMS COMPLETELY DIFFERENT THEN WHEN IT WAS ON THE DYNO. once i get my new intercooler it should be AWSOME. I WOULD RECOMEND THIS SWAP FOR ANY 7AFE. MY BUDDY HAS A 92 300ZX and it should be a good run If your thinking of swaping a 4agze do it and call Tweak even if he doesnt do it he can help.

Thanks again Tweak

I will try to get videos if i can ever figure out how to post them.
