Re: First engine swap, is carbing a 4ag over my head?

Yup just get a 4age front cut and swap it all in, so easy [edit] lol just looked at the date of post , it's probably done and dusted by now lol not yet actually. The 4ac I had died right before I left for my deployment, and im looking to take care of this swap in about a month when I get back. IDK ...

Re: First engine swap, is carbing a 4ag over my head?

Im starting to think that just swapping in the 4ag as is will be easier/cheaper. I would just have to deal with the wiring right? I just don't trust myself to find all the right stuff to make the carb work. I guess my biggest worry really is making the carbs actually attach to the engine.

First engine swap, is carbing a 4ag over my head?

I recently acquired a Sr5 and the engine died on me already. I'm looking at getting a 4age from a junkyard and doing a light rebuild on it, but im curious what will be the easiest route for putting it in? I've heard that carbing it makes it go in simpler than if I would try to convert my Sr5 to fuel...

Re: 4ac-4age swap question, GTS rear end necessary?

another reason I'm wanting to do it this way, is because I have a friend who has a used 4age from a mr2 so obviously the full conversion wouldnt be possible from him but atleast i could get the engine. Im also in F%&*)(@#ing arkansas, so ae86 parts are rare so like I said, sourcing all the parts for...

Re: 4ac-4age swap question, GTS rear end necessary?

woah woah woah...sr20 swap is easier than 20v into SR5? The parts you need are there for either swap, the real question is how much time and money you want to put into this? If you want my word, you get what you pay for. I plan on doing it right, but id like to do it in stages. Like I said my curren...

Re: 4ac-4age swap question, GTS rear end necessary?

i have the mags, I just need a new engine and cant afford/dont have the time to source every part required for the full GTS swap. i just want the new engine now to buy me some time to source everything else needed for the rest of the GTS swap

Re: 4ac-4age swap question, GTS rear end necessary?

ok so essentially I could just do this with an engine with harnesses and ecu, and a aftermarket fuel pump? On that note if I did get a GTS tranny to go with it, all I would need is the GTS clutch master and lines right? Also does all this also apply to the 20v or is swapping the 16 and 20v different?

Re: 4ac-4age swap question, GTS rear end necessary?

well i heard you only needed the bell housing because the clutch master is on the opposite side of the exhaust to keep it from overheating, but if i get steel braided clutch lines and heat wrap the clutch master, could I avoid having to switch the bellhousing? In all reality if I order an engine it ...
