QUOTE (Batman722 @ Oct 13, 2009 - 1:05 PM)  haha we never had a 5sfte  ah true, my fault was typing to quick. love the engine bay though (how everything is black/dark and the bright red cover sticks out) in your guys opinion, how does this compare to 5s-fe and the 7a-fe? since we never really got those motors over here (though there are a tiny amount of NZ new with the 5s) -------------------- |

Congrats on a job well done.
 With the idle, mine also idles at around 1100rpm when I first start it up. As the engine warms up, it drops back to around 800rpm. --------------------  1994 GT-S (BEAMS) swap complete |

Who needs a wedding when you could swap a 3sge into another Celica?
Looks great guys! Can't wait to see what color you decided to paint it. -------------------- "A true car enthusiast can see the potential in any car"

thats just a cover over the valve cover right as it appears? Can that fit a 5s valve cover?

Why are you still using the stock air box? thanks. The intake is kinda touchy with the AFM, too much air and it runs rich, too little air and it runs lean. We just went with a K&N drop in filter which is just fine for us, for now. The other option is to get a CAI or short ram for a 01 v6 camry with the AFM adapter, but it's very important that the pipe diameter is the same as stock or the rich/lean issue comes up. QUOTE (trdproven @ Oct 13, 2009 - 11:36 AM) thats just a cover over the valve cover right as it appears? Can that fit a 5s valve cover? yes, it's just a valve cover cover. I haven't tried it on a 5s but I'd have to say I don't think it would fit. QUOTE (Rusty @ Oct 13, 2009 - 1:42 PM) on another point what are you using for the guage BEAMS or a modified preBEAMS one? modded non beams tach. We didn't want to go with Beams white face gauges so we are using a Dakota digital tach adapter and the tach works just fine. I do see a little jump with the needle now and again but nothing serious. njcc, I'll PM you a pic. -------------------- |

The valve cover is more like a 3SGTE valve cover, it has the inner gasket with the cams almost individually housed, like this...  The 5S valve cover doesn't have the holes that the valve cover cover screws into or the oil cap in the right location. There's probably a few other problems you'd run into but those are the most obvious without actually fitting it to a 5S. -------------------- |

Really cool swap. I like how the red engine went in the red car.
So who's faster? The turbo st or this thing?  btw, is it me, or is that a little air duct on the alternator? -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned
