(J35) http://www.mr2.com/forums/engine-swaps/Toyota-MR2-47117-honda-engine-aw11-pitchforks-anyone-j35.html Fri, 20 Nov 2009 16:45:04 GMT Alright guys, slow down, don't jump to conclusions out of the gate. I think I might have devised a plan to swap a Honda motor into the MK1 that isn't just plain idiotic. I know how all of you purist have responded to this sort of inquiry in the past, and it wasn't pretty. You're free to flame me as you like, but I think my reasoning on this one is sound so hear me out.

ENGINE CANDIDATE: Honda Odyssey J35A6, 3,471cc 60* V6 with J32A2 Pistons

TRANNY CANDIDATE: Acura TL Type-S 6 Speed Manual

Reasoning:
  • The J motor is cheaper (My friend has both motors, J32 & J35 sitting in his storage unit right now and he'll give them to me for a song)
  • Guys over in the Honda crowd are swapping the J32A2 pistons out of the TL Type-S into these Odyssey motors (making the CR something like 11.8:1) and making 290hp at the wheels.
  • It's intake manifold design is more conducive to MR placement, at least in the MK1 with less space than the MK2.... hopefully I can get it in without having to chop up a bulkhead
  • The 6 speed, apart from the fact that I can get these motors very cheap and that they make great power, this is the main reason for choosing this direction
  • The 6 Speed is a cable box so making it work in an MR vehicle shouldn't be too much trouble. The Evora isn't going to be coughing up the 6 speed for the GR anytime soon.... at least not for a decent price.
  • The new TL Type-S motors have very nice inlet manifolds and they are a direct swap
  • Piss people off
  • Do something different

The plan is to buy the motors in the next few days and sit on them until the funds are accumulated to move forward on this. I plan on putting fresh bearings, rings, of course head gaskets, and a fresh hone on the motor.

I'll have to find a 6 speed for it, they can be found for about $600.

Megasquirt kit will be on it's way for Christmas and I'll get that up and going on the 4AGE first, but will have it on hand for the J motor.

My buddy swears up and down that he can get the original splines swapped onto modified TL axles for $200, so that's a big expense averted.

After that it's a handful (albeit are fairly large handful) of small expenses to get everything up and going.

I'm not really sure if it's normal or not. But my mr2 feels like the motor twisting or something like that. For example, when i pick my brother up from school, i'll be in first gear behind someone and if i let off the gas it slows down rather fast and not very smooth. And when i barely give it gas to speed up, it then feels like there is some sort of play in the rear end. Kind of like a go-kart with shocks in the back, if you ever drove one. Just feels like the back end picks up. I have TEIN adjustable shocks, so i know it's not the shocks being soft, cause they are really stiff. So what would cause something like this? I'm trying to explain it the best i can. Thanks for any kind of help. ]]> NA - 5S-FE/3S-GE nitrofreak06 http://www.mr2.com/forums/na-5s-fe-3s-ge/Toyota-MR2-47115-feels-like-motor-twisting.html about converting AFM to MAP http://www.mr2.com/forums/stand-alone-ems/Toyota-MR2-47114-about-converting-afm-map.html Fri, 20 Nov 2009 09:14:18 GMT I've been wondering about my American version mr2 has only 105-110 hp:undecided where as Japan and other countries are well above (115-125hp). then i read this :confused:"The use of an air flow meter (MAF) sensor, which restricted air flow slightly but produced cleaner emissions that conformed to the U.S. regulations, limited the power to 112 hp (84 kW) whereas the Japanese model—which used a manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor—produced 130 hp (97 kW)." wtf sup with that? is this really true my maf sensor being this restricted? my friends corolla has a 4age and kicks my ass. we both have the same engine. cept his was imported. can I switch from AFM to MAP? is it possible? if so what do i need? ]]> Stand-alone EMS falcon021084 http://www.mr2.com/forums/stand-alone-ems/Toyota-MR2-47114-about-converting-afm-map.html WTB: MK3 rims for my AW11 http://www.mr2.com/forums/mk-3-parts-wanted/Toyota-MR2-47113-wtb-mk3-rims-my-aw11.html Fri, 20 Nov 2009 08:44:45 GMT i want mk3 rims, preferbly silver, for my 86 aw11. send a pm if youre looking to get rid of some. looking to pay around 250-300 for just rims. i dont need the tires. i want mk3 rims, preferbly silver, for my 86 aw11. send a pm if youre looking to get rid of some. looking to pay around 250-300 for just rims. i dont need the tires. ]]> MK 3 Parts Wanted scottohno http://www.mr2.com/forums/mk-3-parts-wanted/Toyota-MR2-47113-wtb-mk3-rims-my-aw11.html Need help finding 94 wing!!!!! http://www.mr2.com/forums/general-mr2-discussion/Toyota-MR2-47112-need-help-finding-94-wing.html Fri, 20 Nov 2009 07:46:18 GMT Anyone know where I can purchase a 94 wing Anyone know where I can purchase a 94 wing ]]> General MR2 Discussion unclemr2 http://www.mr2.com/forums/general-mr2-discussion/Toyota-MR2-47112-need-help-finding-94-wing.html wow...this broke my heart... http://www.mr2.com/forums/general-mr2-discussion/Toyota-MR2-47111-wow-broke-my-heart.html Fri, 20 Nov 2009 07:23:24 GMT i rebuilt an '85 NA that i bought for $800. it was white smoking really bad, so i had the engine rebuilt. well, within 3 months of getting the car, i had 3 grand into it. after the motor install, it wasn't getting fuel, so i'd pump fuel into the intake and get it running sitting still. i was so happy. i pushed it out of the shop yesterday and my auto shop teacher backed over the driver's side. it's been declared totalled, and i have to sue his insurance company for what i have in the car, because they're only going to pay $600.... i was crushed... ]]> General MR2 Discussion PPiechocki http://www.mr2.com/forums/general-mr2-discussion/Toyota-MR2-47111-wow-broke-my-heart.html not the heater core please not the heater core! http://www.mr2.com/forums/mk-2-mr2-sw20/Toyota-MR2-47110-not-heater-core-please-not-heater-core.html Fri, 20 Nov 2009 06:20:27 GMT hey two questions 1)i fear my heater core might be leaking...is there anyway to find out other then ripping my whole god damn car apart, will it still leak if i keep the heat off? 2) is there any writeup on replacing it ...and nobody makes a new one??? can i still get one from toyota?(hate to do it twice) doesnt look hard just looks like a pita any help is greatly apreciated thanks hey two questions
