Oil Pressure And Temperature Gauge Installation
Frankieflowers replied to Steve GT's topic in Electronics
This is what I’m talking about. Relocation metal pipe from the front right pressure OEM sensor and The other two adapters screwed one in the other with the two oil temp and pressure gouges in the side. I think this is the only way to work around the sandwich plate issue. Tell me what you think about it. -

What’s the exact model? I ‘ll buy it if fits the 4efte with airconditioning. -
Oil Pressure And Temperature Gauge Installation
Frankieflowers replied to Steve GT's topic in Electronics
Great info. Can you confirm that this sandwich plate doesn’t touch the stearing pump bracket on the 4efte with air conditioning? I was thinking to buy this adaptor with the pipe extension and pit the other two adaptors one in the other for the oil temp and pressure gauges. -
How To Install Oil Filter Sandwich Plate
Frankieflowers replied to Calum122's topic in Tutorials & Guides
Yes you can screw in both oil pressure ant oil temp. It is all about putting the sandwich in the right position that allows sensors not to bother the belt but at the same time you want the support less retouched as possible. I personally didn’t touch ot. I used the dremel on the plate instead. Problem is it started leaking oil. I have to verify if it is caused by the “thin” aluminum ledt close to the ribber gaskey.- 2 replies

Frankieflowers replied to Frankieflowers's topic in EP91 Progress Blogs
That’s great! My fream was the 3sgte AWD but parts would have been way to expensive for my pockets. About the boost pressure. As default it is set to high. My gauge give me a maximum of 0.9 bar. I will upload a video to show it. -

Hey guys. I started the swap thread/story! @Sam44 @Claymore @RoyalDutchie -
OFFICIAL (working) TURBOROLLA Project Hi guys. I made my dream come true. I swapped a 1.3 4efe Toyota with a Starlet Glanza V 4efte engine on my 1998 Corolla Hatchback. The project started researching for months and thanks to passionate people on forums like this one I could gather enough information to understand that I could make it happen. The main issue was that nobody had the experience of doing this before. The few people I spoke to that on the Corolla with the turbo engine didn’t do the job themselves. I had to take the risk and use logic to reduce risks. I am gonna tel

I spoke to RaceCal Ltd. They were nice and they said they could sell me the connector. I found it though on the TE website. Here’s a picture. -

Thank you very much. I feel more safe that I ordered the correct one. I still can’t find a good price for it ECU MASTER EMU CLASSIC. My tuner wants me to order it but prices are quite high. -

Frankieflowers replied to Frankieflowers's topic in 4E-FTE Engine Discussions
I will build a thread with all the steps I followed since we started talking in 2020. I collected all the pictures ever since I got the engine and most of the work and research is already on my thread. But the direct experience of this swap is what makes it precious. I didn’t find a fool schedule with secrets and tips anywhere on the net. First you build the car then you post the thread. The car started to work properly a few days ago. What I wanna post is what has to be done in order to make things 100% work With all the information I collected during these months I had to tes -

4efe SWAP to 4efte in Corolla E11 1998
Frankieflowers replied to Frankieflowers's topic in 4E-FTE Engine Discussions
I finally solved the problems!as. As I felt, my friend who worked on the electric part got confused and took a signal from the yellow and green wire that comes from the two pin temperature sensor. He did it because he thought that he was dealing with the three pin sensor that was on the 4EFE Electric ignition new generation engine on the Corolla. He still did something wrong because Toyota is clear that certain sensors need to be connected straight without any impedance addition. He didn’t notice the sensor underneath that is dedicated to the cluster water temp. So when he took the bridge off -

Unfortunately not. I changed the water temp signal sensor and checked the wires between ghe ECU and the sensor. Everything works perfectly. I really don’t know what to do now. -

Frankieflowers replied to Frankieflowers's topic in 4E-FTE Engine Discussions
I installed the Wallbro 255 you suggested me last year. Anyway it didn’t fix the problem. The problem must be mechanic. Probably an injector leaking. I pulled out the fuel rail return in the morning before turning on the car and there was no fuel. The fuel doesn’t stay in pressure and goes back to the tank. It’s a mechanical issue. I will figure out when I will test the fuel pressure and I will get the injectors to be inspected. -
Thank you. I have a timing gun. I was planning to do it to be 100% sure. I still cannot figure out why I have error 22 in the diagnostics. I replaced the water temp signal sensor and I tested the wiring between it and the ECU. The signal is fine so I really don’t know what is causing the issue. The car will not start when the engine is cold and only after 10 times cranking it will start properly. I pulled out the fuel rail return before starting the car in the morning and there was no fuel. Everything is connected properly but for some reason the fuel goes back to the tank. My brother thinks i

Always nice to read your posts. I am figuring out a few things after my swap and because my mechanic doubted that my new timing belt is correctly in place I spoke to my friend who installed it do you understand if we did something wrong. We installed the timing belt in the right direction where you can read Toyota and crankshaft position was correct and the camshaft pulley was also in the correct position with its hole seeing through. We didn’t move anything I am double checked a couple of times. When we released the tensioner we also checked again to make sure. Is there a particular symp

Here is the connector to be briged to avoid the ECU looking for the N and D signal from the gearbox what is this connector for? Here the temp signal sensor Diagnostics gave me error 22 I will change the sensor tomorro and check if the wire signal is interrupt Should be the cause of false cold start Please help me understand ehat this connector is for. -

The blue smoke comes out when running low RPM after a little bit but I noticed bad changing 2nd to 3rd gear while I was racing another car behind me I saw the blue smoke. We’re going to take the downpipe off to see if there is oil and check the spark plugs to see if they are dark. I hope it’s nota matter of piston rings. I did put some additive in the engine oil to clean up the valve and soft in the rubber rings. I hope it’s the turbo that needs assistance rather than the valves. everyone is watching the car and loving the sound. My shop made an amazing exhaust. I am going to post ev -

the car smokes blue. Yes...We have to figure oit if it’s a valve retainer leak or id it’s the turbo leaking. I would like to know the OEM parts I should replace in the valve kit.
