EDIT* AE86 Swaps
Hey guys this is kinda funny because yet again I have another set of noob/wanabe questions.
I HAVE LOOKED ELSEWHERE FOR INFO BUT LIKE ALWAYS OTHER FORUMS ARENT AS HELPFUL AS THIS ONE! PLEASE DONT FLAME ME lol I am just curious. A 3S-GTE in an AE86..Whats needed, I ask because a friend wants my recently aquired 4age turbo kit I have and is willing to pay much money than I bought it for (big profit)....SO ill need to do something else if I accept his offer. Anyways, Ive heard that you can buy a bellhousing from Toyota that will mate a 3S to a W series Tranny.....Or something like a W-tranny, C-series bellhousing (diesel?). If that works then the tranny issue is solved, we all know a W-series fits into AE86's. Now motor mounts...One guy said the stock ones will work, but I am extremely skeptical of this. So custom? or does any companies make adapters? What about gauges, Can a wiring harness be hacked to make the 3s work in an AE86 using the stock gauges? Would you use a hacked 3s ECU or a hacked AE86 ECU? So what will be needed most likely in my head is... -3S-GTE Engine -Custom motor mounts -W55 Transmission -Bellhousing adapter of some kind -Custom Intake/ intercooler and piping setup. -Custom Exhaust -Major hacking to the wiring harness (I know im missing a whole ton of things but those are the major) I know 3s swap is more money than a 4agte but I ask because my turbo setup will maybe make 200-210whp and will be very unreliable and wont have much engine life...The 3sgte will almost match that power with AMAZINGLY more reliablity with major life. This has been done before, I also know a guy in Calgary(my city) that has done this, but could you guys gimme advice or fill me in with the things Im missing please? |
