PHATKE20S Posted August 12, 2007 Report Share Posted August 12, 2007 (edited) Hey Guys, i have recently acquired a 2T and am wanting to fit it into my KE20. I only have the engine. No g/box OR flywheel. If anyone can throw me some ideas/previous experiences about this conversion they would be greatly appreciated. :) I'm trying to keep to a minimal budget so the missus can't stop it happening :) . So any bolt in info will make life easier and more fun at the next cruise. hahaha :y: Edited August 12, 2007 by PHATKE20S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwarf Posted August 12, 2007 Report Share Posted August 12, 2007 Come over and look at mine. I'm in Aspley. Just finished the engine mounts and starting on the other stuff now. R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordan Posted August 12, 2007 Report Share Posted August 12, 2007 use a 2TG, the 2T swap isn't really worth the effort on its own. especially if you have to go and buy stuff for it. Jordan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordan Posted August 13, 2007 Report Share Posted August 13, 2007 if you run a 3T bottom end you'l really want aftermarket pistons as the 2TG cylinder head is of a larger volume (I'm lead to believe.) that said even if they're the same the 3T stock compression isn't really pushing the limits of what is possible. Wiseco make some quality high comp pistons for the 3T at good prices. Cheers Jordan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clapped out Posted August 14, 2007 Report Share Posted August 14, 2007 When i beat them in my stock looking 30 they get the shits real bad! lol! just a thought dougy, maybe and if a ta22 celica comes into your work it would more than likely be cheaper to get the whole car? then you could remove all the running gear, cross members, clutch setup, pedal box, radiator...etc..........etc? You'd save a shitload of money rather than if you had to buy all the bits and pieces individually! just a thought, cheers phatke30! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The good cars are only remnants by the time they turn up at work. Ah well, i'll just sell the engine. I don't have any space for it in my sheds. They are full of rolla's remember, oh, and AE82 engines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tally Posted August 20, 2007 Report Share Posted August 20, 2007 (edited) Hey guys As my 3K in my KE25 went bust I now need a new engine. I have found a 2T and was wondering if it is an easy conversion. Also I am on the look for a 2TG, I'm guessing that would be a similar conversion. I have looked at Jonnys Old Corolla site http://www.geocities.com/jonnyr_1973/ And also The KE55/2TG Conversion Pages http://ke55.1colony.com/index.html They provided some useful information but still not sure how I would do the conversion in my KE25. Will I still need to use TA22 engine mounts etc etc. If anyone could shed some light that would be great! Cheers Tally Edited August 20, 2007 by SLY T Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwarf Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 I'll shortly have a bunch of pictures up in my rebuild page, as soon as I find time to do anything other than work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
