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. |

where in CA are you? I designed a turbo kit for the 7A but it never got finished. also with a 3S-GTE swap you will never pass SMOG. a 1MZ will pass smog and be a legal swap in CA

Sick motor don't get me wrong , I just want I keep only celica engines in my bay . I'd prob do the 3s-gte if I ever swapped again . I'm already on my second 7a. First one rods broke . Do you forge your rods on that 7afte? I heard that you should def do that if turbo a 7afe. I'm in so cal, in the IE. where u at? |
