UPDATE: my new motor Options

[celica9110]

so does that mean i dont have to swap the ecu too? or would i have to swap the ecu?

[celica9110]

i forgot about this!!!
http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=1311
but it doesnt tell me anything about the ecu or wiring
also on another post someone said that i had to modify the a/c line, the p/s line and the exhaust and intake, but im gonna take the intake i made for my current motor and just slap it on the 4A

thanks
kevin

soooo i just want you guys to know, that im not getting the 4A swap because im not funding it, my granddad is,
he found another 7A(bleh) brand new for $1600
WTF?! who wants to pay that much for THE slowest motor on the block?
not me
but im getting another 7A in my auto ST, that is exactly why im looking to get a project car if u havent read my AE86 thread, just fyi,

but thanks to every1 who has given me information on the 4A swap, alot!!!

its really appreciated, maybe i can get that done when im done with my new 7A

wow thats a bit pricy for a 7A. A 4A-GE silvertop with all the necessities up here is like $1000. If you're getting an engine like that don't swap it out a year down the line.... boost it

That way you will still get respectable power AND you won't have to sell your pristine 7A.

=[
damn i work as a cashier at a grocery store...i need a bbetter job,

so i found out today my new 7A is gonna be bored out....
spelling??????
anyway, i just wanted to know about how many horses ill be getting w/ the cylinders bored, and im also looking for new cams,
will cams increase my hp too?

[trdproven]

wow to me 5 quarts of oil is too much. Also, save up if you are gonna change the motor, might as well get a good one. Its a once in a lifetime chance to get what you want now.

[celica9110]

UPDATE: the new "motor" is just a block and a head, nothing else, guys, btw its a 5s and i have a 7a, and my poppa said it was coming from jacksonville...wrong...it had a cali address, sooo, im just gonna let the mechanic who ordered it realize he ordered the wrong motor...
and also my blown motor, is 100% blown up!!!!
it left me stranded on the side of the road for 45 mins to an hour!!!! while like no lie 4 cops passed and didnt stop!!!!!
this SUCKS!!!! <-underlined
this has been nothing but trouble

alright guys, the right motor should be in tomoro =], and i cant wait, the mechanic possibly might be done by saturday.
also i had a crack in the header so he went to the parts store and got a 1 piece header, this makes me think its a 4-1 header, possibly aftermarket? tell me what you guys think it is

[zero07]

Hope it all works out for you.

[Akirad1]

keep us updated and post pics when its done

[celica9110]
