Topic: celica motor?

[yota_krawler]

I have a buddy that has an 85 efi celica he wants to get rid of. Can I take the efi stuff off of it and put it on my 22r? Don't they have a 22re? Or is the wireing harness differant? same with the computer? he wants 50 bucks for it or a cd player. It has a bad tranny though but I don't need the tranny, so just wondering if I can do it or if it is a bad deal. Thanks Cody

If it is a 22RE yes, Just get a truck wiring harness and computer.

it is 22re, so I just would have to get the harness and computer from a truck. and on a side note what all do I need to get from the car? Do I need the gas tank from a truck or can I put a differant pump in mine?

I would take everthing from under the hood manifold, evap canister, fuel filter bracket, knock sensor, egr, air filter, and piping, AFM, water piping, and anything else that is different from yours. Get an efi tank for your truck an both harness. If you have power steering, check the pump they are different.

you will also want change motor mounts and oil pan, All easy I put a 4runner motor in a celica, start to finish in 1 day- 3 guys-7 hours= done

k so I have to take everything from under the hood. get a new oil pan, get a gas tank, wiring harness, and computer from a truck? the car is a stick so dont have that issue. can someone who has done this before give me some step by step or something like a list on what I need, that would be great I hate carbed I want to do it asap

[86bobbedtoy]

yeah no problem, just take the complete harness off the c-motor use some 22re truck mounts bolt it in then get a 22re truck harness-brain-ect.  and later do the oil pan it might work in it.  remember if you do the pan you also have to use the new pickup tube.   heads up the wiring is a pain in the ass,  I hope you have a full doner.

well not really sure if I want to even do it anymore it sounds fine and dandy but I have not done something like this before and my truck is my dd so I cant have it sit for to long, still thinking about it. Thanks for all of everyones help it might be a later on project when I have something else to drive!

dude, besides  the oilpan and pickup tube,  the motors  are identical, as far as that goes  the computer  and harness  are close enough to  work, 

if  your truck is a 86  or newer  you already have all the harness,   Toyota  didnt use  different harnesses,  the wires  are  just looped back in the  wire loom

its an 85, I just havent decided yet, we will see what happeneds
