7A-FTE made in Germany Options

[Hafkai]

Hi, after over a year of gathering parts my Celica finally is in the garage and gets her custom header, exhaust and some other stuff.
Yesterday we fitted the big Evo9 intercooler, i had to get the ST205 crash bar because the stock one is to tight, intercooler piping was done too and i'm very happy with it. I will use the stock ST205 air filter box, since there is not much space between the filter box and the engine, the IC piping is a little bit tricky but it looks like we found a good route.









The header will be done in the next days.



Short list of parts i'm using:
- Garrett T25 Turbo from a CA18DET
- Mitsubishi EVO 9 Intercooler
- E-manage Ultimate
- Innovate LC-1 Wideband
- ST202 3S-GE Injectors (372ccm)
- ST205 Fuel Pump
- Bosch Blow-Off from a Audi S3
- Custom Header and 3" Exhaust
- dozens of other small parts

Any update?

Nothing too exciting.. the engine is in the car with the T28 turbo, i got everything done to start the engine but had lots of trouble with the ignition.
The engine fired right up but died immediately, everytime ... i played with the fuel map, turned the distributor in every position but the engine wouldn`t run.

I decided to completely remove the old ignition system and build me a coil on plug system. I will use a Avensis 7A-FE distributor as crank angle(24 instead of 4 teeth) and sync pickup. The coils are from Bosch (part#: 0 221 504 024), since they're dumb coils withouh build in igniters i have to use an external (part# 0 227 100 211)
Those coils fit quite well, the only problem could be the hood since they're connectors face in that direction ......



I hope i'll have some time soon to install this stuff.

boobs!!!

.. it's really hard to make pics without them in this garage

Can you let us know on the P/N of the distributor? I am looking the Toyota parts catalogue online but I cannot find it. Is it a distributor indeed or a Camshaft sensor?
