I JUST BOUGHT MY CAR AND THE GUY I BOUGHT IT FROM HAD SAID THAT HE PAID SOMEONE TO INSTALL AND DO ALL OF THE MOTOR WORK FOR HIM...NOT MECHANICALLY INCLINED AT ALL!!! ANYWAY THE MOTOR IS SUPPOSALLY BOUGHT FROM SOMEONE ON EBAY AND WAS FROM JAPAN WITH ONLY 30,000 MILES ON IT...IT IS NOT TURBO...SO ARE THERE NUMBERS ON IT OR ANY TYPE OF JAPENSE STAMPS THAT I CAN LOOK FOR TO DISCOVER WHAT MOTOR IS IN MY CAR?? THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR COMMENTS... I OWN LEXUSES BUT THIS IS MY FIRST TOYOTA...4 CYLINDER!!!

Nasty motor. Looks like the previous owner blew up the 5SFE, so they dropped in a 3SFE block and kept the 5S intake manifold and probably all of the other 5S bits. Not a performance upgrade at all. Its just a cheap replacement motor. You should pressure wash that engine bay and replace the valve cover with a non corroded one. Then you'll have a nice setup.
Also, the sticker on the valve cover is most likely just there for whoever sold the motor to keep inventory. You can get rid of it. -------------------- 1991 MR2 - T-tops - Crimson Red - Gen3 3SGTE - Lots of money
 I'm not really an asshole, but I play one on the internet. **** Photobucket |
