turbo 4a-c

[briney]

i was looking at my ae 82 the other day, and was thinking how much of an extra kick in the pants a turbo would give it. now, the mounting place of choice would be on the end of a j pipe. run under the engine. turbo at the front. would this be gay, response wise ? i would most likely ceramic coat it.

[mrshin]

I'm tipping it will be very average in ALL respects. Do it, but don't wast money ceramic coating anything.

i know of a 4ac that made 98rwkw

i think the kit is for sale now.

[gerald1]

your ae82 has a 4a-c??

you sure that aint a 4a-f?

4a-c was generally in the RWD aussie cars with A series engines.

either way if it is a 4a-c talk to lawson from http://www.ajps.com.au/

he is on these forums and i think he ran a turbo 4a-c.

its defanatly a 4ac my sister had one. 4af is in ae92/93(i believe) . got a quick question if the c in toyota language means Californian emissions why doesn't the 4AC have a air pump like the 18RC

that's right

Early ae80's had 2ac and the later ae82 had 4ac until about 1988 when the twinky's came out with a bigport

Hi,

The 18R series engines are older than the 4A series. So, they had to have bolt on stuff and other things to make the pre-emmission designed 18R engines (ie such as the 18R-C) to conform. The 4A series had certain emmission stuff built into them when they were deisgned, so they didn't need extra stuff to conform.

Basically, the 4A series were designed in the era with more strict emmissions than the 18R engines, and this was considered in the design of the 4A engines.

Well, that's what I've been told....

there's an old member's ride thread about a 4A-C turbo that's been used for drifting.. basically it uses the J-pipe suck through or blow through design, and uses a mitsubishi sigma turbo.. the pipe was welded onto the top of the carbie from memory..

sorry i can't do a search, my internet has slowed down and it takes forever to do any searches...

Here is the link you will find a bit of info at, yes both engines are 4A-C so you know it can be done now, as long as the bonnet height & space between radiator in the FWD will allow.

As far as I'm aware in Toyota language...
C = Carby
G = Performance Twin Cam
F = Economy Twin Cam
E = Electronic Fuel Injection

I'm 99% sure of these ^ but someone correct me if I'm wrong

Somewhere deep into the memory bank i think...
U = Something to do with emissions?

I know I have read something explaining it all, not on toymods but this is where I found the link to it. If someone knows which site has the info post it up.

U= japan emissions

my setup would need a j pipe under the motor, to the front. then a pipe over the top. blow through escort weber ? intercooler and sneeze valve then. yeeha ! ca 18 turbo ? or something a little smaller ? how strong is the standard gearbag ?

Early ae80's had 2ac and the later ae82 had 4ac until about 1988 when the twinky's came out with a bigport

they were released with the 4age at the same time as the 4ac that is why you see some twin cams with the early ae82 parkers which are smaller then the later model which run further around the front 1/4 panel. the early model twin cams had the "bluetop" motor whereas the later model had the "red top" bigport motors which had a few minor changes(think it is a 7 rib block as opposed to the bluetop 4 but dont quote me on that)

and as far as i know ae80s were sold alongside ae82s as i know someone that has an ae80 that has build date of from the second half of the 80s and my sisters ae82 was earlier

Hi,

And "E" meant just fuel injected, 'cos back in the 18R-E, 18R-GUE and 2T-GUE days these were mechanical fuel injection systems, and lacked the sophistication of the EFI that is used now.

Is it really worth spending money on a 4AC?
Why not 4AGE etc....?
Or you could save that money and time, and just buy a better car that has better potential engine mods???? You dont have to spend heaps, just do some research. you can find bargains pretty easily on the net these days.
