All my necessary 3sgte turbo parts have come off an 90-03 all trac. I'm talking to a guy about the coolant line for the CT26 rite now. I'm gonna get it off of an alltrac ct26 as well. The line looks a little bit different than the mr2 ct26 coolant line. One thing i noticed too is that the all trac MAP sensor has green label, as where the MR2 MAP sensor has a goldish label. I just thought that was interesting.

Anyway, i'm getting an ACT Streetdisc & Heavy Duty PP installed Thursday. I'm also going to pick up my oil relocation kit that day as well.

MUCH more to come, including pictures and more info. I just typed this up really quick while i was at work. In the mean time, please give any other info u guys can help me on.

PS I'm gonna be sending in my fuel injectors to get cleaned this week as well.

[presure2]

your also gonna need the lines and fittings to go with your relocation parts. the canton adapter is not a kit, its just the block adapter

[CaliJeff]

oh yeh, heh. i'm getting the canton to go on to the engine, and i'm gonna get a trans dapt filter adaptor for the other end. the lines i believe are gonna be -10an steel braided.

where are you getting the clutch installed? and hey, I got my canton racing adaptor at livermore performance; a website I found that carries it. It's not an actual shop, I think it's just 2 guys running a business out of a residence on the other side of town; cause I picked it up at some guys house. the guys there are real cool though. Check out their website and give them an e-mail and they should either have one or could get one for you.

also, I'd get two 45* or 90* 1/2" NPT to -10an adaptors or 45* or 90* hose ends for your relocation kit, cause mine hit my downpipe and are crimped just a little. I want to get some, I just haven't gotten around to it yet.

I'll try to help you out as much as I can with it

[CaliJeff]

i'm gettin my clutch and PP installed at Modacar. I talked to the guy and said he can do everything for 750. Installment & parts

Anyway, my internet is down i'm having to use my parents computer for my the next week or so for updates.

I think that is the right part number. and yeah, I got my adaptors from summit racing. anyway, I did something wrong and had a small electrical fire on my engine about half hour ago and I think I'm gonna give up on the celica, so if you want some turbo parts I could sell some of mine.

[CaliJeff]

... how did u get the electrical fire? i'll be glad to take some of those parts off ur hands.

[CaliJeff]

Question to anyone who has the 5sfte. how many IC pipes, and of what kind, are u using on the hot side?

[1bwilson]

DG welded up my IC piping years ago Jeff but if I were to guess in measurements of U bends Id say from turbo to IC 3 U's cut well. Maybe 3.5.

[6strngs]

on the hot side I've got the 180 degree bend, a 45 degree bend, and one 90 degree bend cut down to fit. I have a 45 degree coupler going from turbo to 180, I have a straight coupler going from 180 to 45 (though it needs a 45 degree coupler!) then a straight coupler from the 45 to the 90, and then a reducing 90 degree coupler from the 90 to the IC. the piping is 2.25 but my IC inlets are 2.5 so I needed a reducing coupler.

on the other side I've got 4 90 degree bends with two 2.25 to 2.5 couplers, and the rest straight couplers. plus I have a section of the stock mr2 piping so I can use the mr2 bov. I'd say you'd need one more 90 without that pipe, but I know you were considering doing something different on this side of the IC.

I have a couple extra straight couplers I'd sell for a couple bucks a piece if you want. they're blue though.

[CaliJeff]

blue is fine. i might pick that up later.

Anyway, my computer is still down so i'm on my parents computer again (sigh). I'll be able to upload pix once i get my comp up and running again.

Currently, my car as at the shop to have the pp and clutch installed, along with the rear main seal and gaskets replaced. I figure i might just do this as well because i don't want something like 6strings engine to happen to me.

[CaliJeff]

So the place which was gonna work on the clutch/pp/rear main seal wasnt able to do the job. they broke their main braker, and was unable to do it. They are referring me to a place which will do it tomorrow. i'll update u guys later.

[CaliJeff]

Minor update: Just dropped off the car to get the PP, clutch, rear main seal, and flywheel resurfaced at a shop for 451.00. They offer 2 yr / 200,000 mi warranty on their service. Hopefully i'll get it back tomorrow with no bad signs !

[6strngs]

dang, I paid 700 for just the installation of my clutch (and pp) and flywheel, where'd you take yours?

[CaliJeff]

Tri valley clutch In dublin. off of dublin blvd, across the street from the park.

[CaliJeff]

So i didn't the car back today, because I am at work, but they test drived it, AND SAID IT KICKS A$$ ! Woot. I'mma pick him up tomorrow, and hopefully relocate my battery, maybe do the oil relocation kit as well.

if you relocate your battery you should bring it over so I can see how you did it. I want to relocate mine but I don't quite understand how to do it.

[CaliJeff]

kk. BTW, monument sells 4 gauge wire for like 2.99 per foot.
So i just got the car back from the shop, and WOW ! I can totally feel the difference in the clutch. The clutch has more tension and wants to pop up right away. Also, i have to relearn it a lil cuz i almost stalled it a couple times lol. Further updates later. Gotta get to work !

[CaliJeff]

Just ordered the following.
Oil Take Off -Dual Outlet- Pt #OTODK
(2) -3an to 1/8npt steel fittings - PT # EAR961603ERL
NGK spark plugs - Pt # BKR7E
TwosRUs MBC - Red
(2) 1/2" NPT to -10an adaptors (the stainless steel tubing is going to have 1 90 degree and 1 straight angle)

Edit: forgot to mention that i ordered a battery relocation kit as well.
