94 celica st

i have a 1994 toyota celica 1.8L st. I was wondering if a turbo manifold for a 4afe would fit my 7afe?

[96stgreendemon]

Yes it will work

[my94celica]

awesome!! thanks for replying.. by what i've read it says it will fit.. but i just wanted to make sure before i go buy one.

Honestly by the time you turbo the 7a you might as well just swap a 3sgte, the 7a can handle around 7lbs of boost, granted some people are running more but the reliability of the engine when you turbo an N/A car goes down dramatically, look into a 3rd gen 3SGTE swap, most of the swap is pretty easy, you add a motor mount from a gt to the passenger side, splice and extend a few wires, and get the transmission from a GT and basically thats it... well not as easy as that but you will reap much more reward for the set up

ya.. ive been looking into doing a 3sgte swap. but could you still make it just fwd with the gt transmission?

[RobMilkshakes]

Yes, the S53 or S54 transmission is only FWD.

[96stgreendemon]

^^ yes both of those will work, and so will an e153, but that is LSD

[my94celica]

so the s53 or s54 will bolt straight to a 3sgte?

[RobMilkshakes]

yes it will.

[96stgreendemon]

You will need GT shifter cables, GT throttle cable, Gt passenger side motor mount, plus some other odds and ends

if i decide to put an st205 into my 94 celica st.. is the only major change the engine mount? and the tranny?
