Hi, I'm fairly new to this forum, i have a KE55 coupe with a 2TG celica engine in it. i was just wondering if anyone on this forum may know of how i might be able to convert my engine from CARBI to FUEL INJECTED. if so would it be worth doing or not? any info would be greatly appreciated. thanks, Ben.

hey guys, is the fly wheel and clutch/plate the same used on the 2t wanting to put 2tg gear on to 2t.. cheers

hey guys, i have recently picked up some 2tg efi that i plan on puting on my 2tc. i am just wondering if some one could tell me what pipes go to where on the side of the plenum. here is i photo that shows the ones that i knowand the ones i don't. please corect me if I'm wrong. cheers,

hey guys, Hoping for a bit of help here. I recently put a 2tg into my rolla and of course expected the fuel economy to be worse than the 5k that was in there. Not this much worse though. Getting 16.5l per 100km under fairly normal driving conditions. Engine has mild cams and head work as far as I know and is running twin weber 40s with 32mm chokes. It was running rich and had machined out 34mm chokes and jets to suit then I got it rejetted with the 32mm chokes but it hasn't made a significant difference. So all you 2tg owners what sort of economy are you getting? And what carbs are you running?

Hey guys i need to ask a ques, What are the part numbers for a set of points and condensor (Bosch) for a 2tg??? Any help is welcome See ya Jimi

Hey all i was wondering if anyone could tell me were to find some 2TG parts in SA, a mate and i have just bought 2x 2TG's that look fairly sad and sorry for them selfs.We striped them down and need heaps of parts like piston rings, gaskets, seals, pistons so any imfomation would help heaps. Thnaks Lukey

I have the standard k series radiator in my car with the 2tg and as the picture below shows the hose doesn't have the bend to fit on. As I see it I have 2 options 1. find a hose with that 90 degree bend in it - any ideas on that one? 2. Get a piece of metal pipe to fit between the hose I have and another hose that is a 90 degree bend... Any help on this?

I'm getting a 2tg head revamped atm and the engine guys can shim the valves as the inlet valves are to long and the exhaust are to short. ;) The head is a 261 head and i now need to buy new valves. are the 261 valves the same as the 220 and 222 heads? if not does anybody know the right length for the 261 valves. or where the right ones can be sourced. cheers

the 2zz-ge engine would have to be the most recent engine to be put into the corollas that we all now and love. Does anyone know anyone that knows them inside out ??? I've been chasing someone in brisbane or anywhere in AUS that can talk to me about them. As I have basically come to the lengths as far as bolt on mods goes for my rolla so now its down to internals. or anything else that we can think of. Any info would be great thx guys :P

Ok, so i'm starting to get rod knock from my stock 4age and am wondering what all I would need to get a 2zz-ge into my car. Detailed information such as mods to the engine bay,mountings, wiring for the dash (w/full and complete wiring harness and potential problems i might run into. Thanks for the info.

Has anyone done this? Can this engine be converted to rwd?

looking at buying a set of 3 peice wheels, inspected them and they have been welded together. is it possible to seperate them without wrecking them? as I'm wanting to put larger barrels. cheers guys.

done a search but can't find much just wondering if any one can point me in the right direction, just want to find specs on the converter and the box and how much power they can hold, looking for eithier a website or a workshop in vic that can help me out thanks in advanced tuff car, tuff dog

If my 4k i put 3k head tat mean my cr goes up,rite..?? U mean 8v 3k head..?? If cr up the the power up,isit...??

i have a 32 Dar 6 weber with 24 and 26 on the barrels would it be worth putting it on standard 4k? i have to get some extractors at some point in time due to the mounting face on the manifold being pitted getting sick of replacing manifold gaskets every 2 months oh yeah the weber is off a 1.6 renault ts-18 cheers Damon

Need to know (if you do that is) what size jets people have in these when on a mild 4k. The secondaries on mine feel good, but the idle the power transition is way the rich, and it is doughy as hell until it hits about 2500 rpm. Long shot I think, but you never know... I know Nick has one of these for his KE70, is it on there yet??

hey all I'm jess I'm getting a 32/32 webber carby to put on my 4k engine, its stock but getting a rebuild so the head, ect is getting worked on, I'm putting extractors and 2 1/4" exhaust on. Anyway just wanting to know if i got new jets put in the 32/32 to down jet it would it make it more suitable to put on my 4k??? But i still want it to have some decent power to it..... :P cheers, hope somebody can help me.

Hey just taken original carby off, going to put the webber carby on, has a 4k adaptor plate, not too sure how its goign to attach to the manifold, bolts from the original carb mount come up and through the adaptor plate, but how does the adaptor plate get secured to the manifold???? awesomesssss ^_^

Hi guys, Dad and I have been surfin' eBay for the last few weeks for Weber Carbys for Ollie, and we stumbled across this one. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/NEW-WEBER-32-34-DMTL-CARB-CARBY-LANDROVER-LAND-ROVER-/330605977866?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item4cf9a6e10a It's a 32/34 Weber Carby with Manual Choke from a Land Rover (presumably from an older model one). I asked dad if it would work on my 4K, and he said he couldn't see why not, having smaller jets than the very common 32/36. I'm not saying he's wrong because I'd like to get one, but before I go out and buy one, I wanted to ask, and get opinions and suggestions from the brains of the "Weber on K…

i am changing my standard 4kc carb with a weber 32/36 dgav, and I'm looking at the engine bay of my ke70 wondering on how I'm going to go about installing my carb, what has to go from the engine bay, what holes are safe to block ect ect and what size hosing ill need buy for the fuel line. but i look at this one component and think wut? ill post a diagram pic with my concern, then a blank canvas where you may draw your opinion or how you went about this component and hoses when u installed a Weber, otherwise when you installed your Weber what parts and hoses were useless in the installation of your weber carburetor. I'm amature as all shit with this stuff but your help is …

hey guys well i have sorted out a major air leak, so that problem should be all gone now ... The new problem - the car free revs - even with the idle screw set at the lowest, it revs at over 3,000RPM. This is with the mixture screw set about 1 1/2 turns out. This is with the throttle gear returning to the closed position (e.g. the throttle cable isn't tight and holding the throttle open. ..) The jets in it are 130 primary, and 132 secondary. It is an automatic choke model, but the choke valve is all the way open so should have no affect ... The motor is a 4k .... ARG! ANY help would be great guys, cars been off the road for almost a week…

Hey Guys..... I'm deciding between getting a new carb or keeping my 32/36 DGV Weber for my worked 5k...... If i rebuilt the Weber, should i pay someone, or could i do it myself? I priced a rebuild kit at $45.00 at autObarn..... Any suggestions??? Thanks :P

Hey guys, I am after some help with working out "wtf" is going wrong with my carbie. Have a 32/36 DGAV Weber on the 4K since the Aisan one shit itself. All was working fine with it over 2 months or so, but now something is wrong and I am unsure of what it is. The car will not rev at a steady level. If you try to hold the revs at a constant mark, the engine drops in revs then kinda splutters back up then drops again. The same goes for the idle. It barely idles, and when you adjust the mixture screw, it does hardley anything. The screw can be the whole way out and the engine still runs like it was halfway in. When you try to increase the idle speed, the engie just picks…

hey, from time to time I'm getting extreamly poor fuel economy and a very bad idle, not just a rough idle like it normally does but a surging kind. also when i go to stop and there is no throttle on it will just miss idling and stall. it isnt always like this and I'm thinking that the problem maybe the needle and seat sticking on..?? other peoples thought on this..? my old man had a simerlar problem with his old thunderbox.. i took the top of the fuel bowl off and the level was aprox half way (without the float obviously) i sprayed some carb cleaner down the throttle to cause is had a lot of sludge.. i have also disconnected the secondary and zipp…

Hey guys, Will soon have a 4AGZE big port manifold sitting here. Wonder if anyone's fecked around to get something like a 32/36 fitted to one? Would be the easiest and cheapest way to get a 4age running in something like a KE. No expensive weber sideys or fuel systems to worry about. Food for thought?

I planning on building a turbo onto the side of my 5K with a blow through setup onto a 32/36. I just wondering if anyone has done this before and has any advice, also I'm looking at the moment for ideas on a turbo hat for the top of the carby that i can put the piping into. I'm really looking for some good blow through pictures and hat ideas, ive read through the big turbo thread but want some more ideas if anyone has them At the moment its probably gonna be a bit backyard with a j pipe and a small turbo running about 7-8PSI as I'm not touching the head yet. Cheers :P Also just quickly does anyone know if a 32/36 shares the same shape for an air filt…

Hello all, A mechanic at my work has offered to sell me a 32/36 webber at a reasonable price. I have searched around abit on the sight and the FAQ/Wiki on this sight under "Carburettor" say this: http://www.rollaclub.com/faq/index.php?title=Tech:Engine/K_Series/Carburettor I have already purchased the jets the wiki suggested and an adaptor plate for the 32/36 A few days later after reading that I came across the "how to build a tough K motor" wiki, it says http://www.rollaclub.com/faq/index.php?title=Tech:Engine/K_Series/How_to_build_a_tough_K_motor My question is, should I buy the webber and rejet it, or keep looking and find a smaller webber. …

Hi guys i have two 32/36 DGAV webers with coolant chokes. One is stamped italy and the other spain. I herd some rumblings from an escort finatic a few years back that these are like apples and pears sorta look the same but not. Apparently the italy stamped one is better ? Any dealings with this minor difference.

Hey all, I searched the forum and couldn't find anything on this. I have a 32/36 weber and I'm putting it on my 5K. I was just having a quick look at everything and couldn't find an inlet thing for the solid fuel line. Am i just blind and can't see it or do they not have a solid fuel line? Any one that has put a 32/36 on a K motor before, any info or pics would be appreciated. Thanks.

Ok so dad drove the ke70 to work on monday. As soon as he got it home it stalled itself when idleing. After starting it back up again it idled for a few seconds, then the revs dropped and it almost stalled but then they rise to the normal idle again and it keeps suddenly dropping revs untill it finally stalls itself. I thought there must be some dirt or grit in the idle jet. It was fine in the higher revs and there were no problems when you drive it but as soon as you stop at traffic lights your constantly revving it so it wont stall. I took the carb off yesterday, cleaned it inside and out and cleaned the primary and secondary idle jet. I also took the top off …

Hey Hey, I have a 32/36 weber on my Pajero. SAeeing as some folk here like these carbies i'll ask here.It wont idle properly. Idles at 200 - 300rpm. No vac leaks i can find. Drives well, cruises well. Dies when i add start ya bastard. Runs better when i cover fuel bowl vents but still not 100%. New kit put through, new needle and seat. To get it to idle i have turn the mixture screw out nearly 10 turns and crack the primary butterfly which is very wrong. Idles shit aswell. I'm not expecting a miracle answer but suggestions.

as title says, can get one for cheap, next to nothen, can it be rejetted to suit a 4k?, it came off a 1.6L gemini motor, which had only extractors, and it ran really well, and if anything was runing a bit lean... i might just grab it just in case, Thanks

I'm in need of a 4ac cam cover, was wondering if the 3a would fit it?

Hello everyone I'm new here, I wanted to find out if anyone knows if a 3A engine would fit into a 79 rolla and if any modificatios would be needed.

Heyas, What plugs are you guys running in your 3e-te's and at what gaps? This is for my 87 Corsa, running 11psi.

Hi, I am searching around now for 3F lifters to place into my 5K at home. I went to super cheap they had a quick look in the parts cataloge and couldn't find them. So I am wondering does anyone know a place I can get 3F motor lifters cheap? Also what are they worth new? Or is it cheaper to get used ones and reface them? Cheers Cameron

So trying to just confirm the deck height of the 3k at 185.5 and the 4k at 196.0? Deck height being from crank centreline to top of block. Doesn't seem to add up with stroke and piston height measurements as follows.... So 3k deck height would be 66/2 stroke + 113 rod + 35.5 piston height = 181.5mm And 4k deck height would be 73/2 stroke + 120 rod + 35.5 piston height = 192mm What is missing here?

Hey guys i got a new 3k clutch for my rolla has i'am putting a k-50 in this weekend, Now i have a 4K flywheel out of a KE70 K motor and a KE30 3k Clutch just wondering wether this will bolt up to my motor and gearbox fine, thanks Trent

I was wondering if you can use the bell housing off a 3K auto gearbox... who knows...might as well ask seen as I have one lying around

Was having a clean up in my garage the other day and came across a 3K head I'd forgotten I had. Question ! How do you tell the difference between a 3k big port & a 3k std head ? Did a quick search but can't find the answer. I guess it's only the dimenisions of the manifold port openings; but what are those dimensions. Thanks ! :)
