ooh not good mate,

but the good thing is that the 4efe is a non-interference engine...
no bent valves, no internal damage.

new belt and off you go

turbo? Maybe Comming Soon...

Wow close call, but like its been said, non interference so wouldnt be too bad. I nearly had the same thing happen to my 20v (bolt came loose inside the cam cover!) but that would have been catastrophic if that had snapped as it is an interference engine lol

Subject: Re: This happened to my car. Tue Feb 26, 2013 11:20 am

No matter what my mechanic did my AE just wont start!
I dont know what to do! Sad

"non interference" I'm stupid lol! I dont know what that means, I just know my car is not driveable at the moment.

20v is a non interference engine Very Happy

Subject: Re: This happened to my car. Tue Feb 26, 2013 9:09 pm

Blacktop isnt apparently.

Subject: Re: This happened to my car. Tue Feb 26, 2013 9:17 pm

From all my experance with 20v's I have found them to be non.
Don't get me wrong I could be wrong

Subject: Re: This happened to my car. Tue Feb 26, 2013 9:20 pm

Ahh well if its not thats a bonus but id rather not chance it lol Smile

Subject: Re: This happened to my car. Tue Feb 26, 2013 11:18 pm

How hard is it to do an engine swap for someone who has never done it?

What would I need to do the swap?

Blacktop/20V is out of the question as those engines would not be legal in my AE due to strict rules from the man upstairs.

I was thinking more like a 2.0 Celica/MR2 or 2.2 Camry engine, nothing to powerful (I dont want to loose my drivers licence again)

I imagine the easiest swap for you would be the 4efte, turbo engine from the starlet. As it would be a bolt in engine.

However miib14 went from 4efte to 3sge so these corollas are a bit easier to do engine swaps on than my starlet it would seem haha,

Im sure i saw a conversion loom for sale for a corolla to 4efte the other day?

Subject: Re: This happened to my car. Tue Feb 26, 2013 11:43 pm

I had a 3sge in my first toyota (a 1987 2.0 16V camry) and id love to have that engine in my little AE.

3sge is a good choice mate but not sure you would keep your licence if it is any thing close to Ishaq's beast lol!

^Gen 1 3SGE's were in JDM Camry's from 85-89. But maybe he's thinking of a 3SFE, which Camry's had before the 5?

3SFE makes more sense, I just remember that it was a 2.0 16V
