What engine am I??? Options

[Nigel]

Hi
Could someone give me a stright answer to this question

i bought my car a year ago under a GT but my mate who works for Toyota says its not got the GT engine in it.
I said to my mate it says 2.0L but he says its a carollo engine. Is he taking the p*ss.

The info write in the chassis is:
ST202 3S-FE 2.0 16V

In the book it says GT 2.0 is 173bhp.

take a pic of the engine bay and post it here if you want an exact anser, but it soulds like its just a 3sfe, which I think is basicly the head off a 3sge on the block of a 5sfe. and 173bhp is about right for that.

Carollo, as in a John Carollo engine?

not even close to 173bhp. it produces less than the 5sfe.

3sfe is the F head on a S block i think its the same head as the 5SFE and the block of The 3sge. just like it said 2.0l instead of 2.2l

something is wrong here!?

if it is a uk or jdm celica as i suppose, it should have the 2.0 litre 3s-ge engine with around 170hp.

the 3s-fe is the 2.0 litre engine from camry, carina... and many others... but it was never used in a celica (correct me if i'm wrong)! has less hp than the 3s-ge, i think around 130!

Aside from the headers, does your engine look something like this?

[WannabeGT4]

So much incorrect information in this thread it's not even funny.

It's all right here:

It is not "basicly" a G head on a 5S Block
Yes, 3SFEs were used in Celicas.

[afroman]

so am i incorrect in saying its an F head on an 3S block or am i completely wrong and should go shoot my self.

Well when you break down the engine code that is right. 3S is the block type F is the head type and E is Electronic fuel injection. Wether or not the 5SFE and 3SFE head are exactly the same and the 3SFE and 3SGE blocks are the same I couldn't tell you, I've never had them side by side. I'd venture to say that they are very similar but they'll probably have their little differences.

[afroman]

cool thanks for the info. i was just wondering.

Though I've never had them side by side either, I can almost garantee you that they're different. For example, there's a difference in the 7A and the 4A heads, and a big difference between the 4AFE and 4AGE bottom ends, a BIG difference. Even though they are both "A" engines.

A large difference between the F-head used on the 3S and F-head used on the 5S -- 0.2L

[WannabeGT4]

The head doesn't have anything to do with the .2L displacement difference.
= displacement

[Mr_E]

It's not a GT if it has a 3S-FE. It's a JDM SS-I.

You did know it was an import.

This is what i read so i thought it was a 173bhp car. I put my foot down 0-60 was like not being funny 6-7 seconds.
It is a import i think from Japan.
Ill put a pick of the engine in a min.

above is a link i tried to go as quick as poss
the first one is 0-60 at the begining i had to turn to car as i was going left. And the other scene was 0-50 i ran out of road but that looks pretty quick. Also i was holdin the camcorda and ground was wet.

Maybe it could help.
