Well Im thinking my problem came from not having the second 02 sensor one time or running the car with a gutted cat and no exhaust.

the second 02 does nothing but help obd2 keep an eye on emmissions, it should not have caused a problem for your car.

i ran my car with only a down pipe, and not even my primary o2 got readings, but i only drove it like that for about 3 trips up and down my street and to the shop.

I used to drop the whole exhuast of of my car on the track before the 3sgte swap and never had a problem... what exactly happened to your motor?

and what has been done mod wise?

what about an fmu?

or any fuel mods? even with only bigger injectors the car will run lean. need a few parts to control the fuel.

wow when I looked at this the other night I didnt even notice I was on the 2nd page...LOL

1st off:
QUOTE
yea man i bet its the head gasket like we all talked about last night. get like 2 or 3 of them after its fixed that should fill that gap...also i would definitely keep the turbo set up...its worth it in the end.


this is flat out the stupidest Idea I have ever heard of.... period, this doesnt even fall under the "it seemed like a good idea at the time" catagorey...if there was a car darwin award you woulda just gotten it.....

If you have major gaps between your head and engine block then you either need to scrape off the adhesive or get either the block or head replaned. you can also pick up thicker head gaskets for a decent price- not ripping on you here jwalk.

2nd: please tell me you hooked up an oil return hose... even if you didnt just lie to me and tell me you did and then go replace your turbo cuz its cooked an get the 3sgte oilpan and hook up the line.

3rd: removing the head is an easy project if you know what you are doing and take your time. Just make sure you take the head to a machine shop and have them check to make sure its not warped... could explain gap you have.

4th: listen to 97GTinKC... he's right... lower that compression or you will have this kinda stuff happen over and over agian... I cant count the number of times I have seen this kinda stuff happen over the last 4-5 years.. 11:1 cant handle boost very well for long.. not without a complete rebuild - period.

5th: if you need help ask man..

jwalk - I dont wanna come off as a dick here cus im not trying to be.. just do it right the 1st time so your not in this same spot 6 months down the line, trust me I have blown motors before and know how much it sucks to not have your car.. hell its been way over a year since the last time I drove mine and I didnt even blow nething up this time biggrin.gif

the gap was between the manifold and the head, not the head and the block

I could be wrong but I always thought the 5sfe was alot higher than that... never paid much attention to my 5sfe cuz I got my celica to do the 3sgte swap.. so maybe I am wrong on that


QUOTE

manifold - head or head-block... the gasket idea is still stupid either way... expecially if boosted and the same way to fix the problem.. have them replaned

The only thing i would like to add to help you guys out is i think (im pretty sure) that the 98 and 99 celicas have forged pistons unlike the older models, so if you have a newer car then you really do not need any lower compression forged pistons. You should look into getting the metal head gasket for the 5sfe camry to lower your compression to about 8:1 ....and it will last way longer too! If i were you i would run the water lines to the turbo, they are really easy to tap into and take like 15 minutes to do. You can tap into the rubber lines under the intake manifold with 2 tee's and run your lines to the turbo.( If you follow the metal water lines that run across the front of the engin block from the water pump you will see where i am talking about) And deffinetly do not let any friends talk you into rushing your project. Take your time and do it right!!!! I hope you get it up am running soon my man.....good luck!
If i can help with anything else just ask!
DG
