jonog Posted December 5, 2010 Share Posted December 5, 2010 Hi just wanted to ask if anyone has done the conversion from a 2EE engine into a EP91 as l have access to a TRD cup engine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Enzo Posted December 5, 2010 Share Posted December 5, 2010 TRD cup engine.TRD cup engine.????tell us more??? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jonog Posted December 5, 2010 Author Share Posted December 5, 2010 Yer but no but... is the conversion possible as it would come from the 1987 era of motors and also requires the ecu to be adjusted as is fuel injected. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BigMan Posted December 5, 2010 Share Posted December 5, 2010 easiet was for the ecu i think would be greedy e-manage and get it mapped to suit that engine and that car? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ToyotaTech15 Posted December 5, 2010 Share Posted December 5, 2010 Sounds intresting.Looking at pictures of my old ep80 the mounts look the same so the 2EE should drop in.Is the engine you are looking at running fuel injection or still carb and it will need set up on fuel injection?Gary Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jonog Posted December 5, 2010 Author Share Posted December 5, 2010 Yes it it is running on fuel injection and the guy is prepared to do a remap sounds interesting! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ToyotaTech15 Posted December 5, 2010 Share Posted December 5, 2010 I would say it would drop straight in on the mounts and you would just have to run an emanage or equivalent to power it.have you got anymore info on this TRD 2E-E?Gary Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jonog Posted December 5, 2010 Author Share Posted December 5, 2010 The guy is not easy to get hold of but according to the photos seen all the parts, appart from piston rings and main bearings, are there! l believe it to be a real rarity and what a chance to see it in my engine bay. You say you have had a EP80 l believe this motor was also used in the Corolla and the Starlet EP82? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ToyotaTech15 Posted December 5, 2010 Share Posted December 5, 2010 Is it a complete engine you are looking at or does it need rebuilt? If its a rare engine it may be hard to get parts for if they are different.it would be nice to see, never heard of it before.I had a ep81 model sorry, just a standard uk spec According to sources this 2E-E came in the Corolla, starlet, corsa, tercel and TazzBullet proof engine when i had it, never gave a bit of botherGary Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jonog Posted December 5, 2010 Author Share Posted December 5, 2010 Hi the block, crank and pistons are all either new or reconditioned and from what l can make out the other parts are all on his work bench or around it.How can l upload images to this forum? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SiCaln Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 make an account on photobucket.com and then add links to this site of your imageslooking forward to seeing them! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jonog Posted December 6, 2010 Author Share Posted December 6, 2010 Hi once again onto the subject of the TRD cup engine here are some photos what do you all think? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mk1kurt Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 cool any more pics Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jonog Posted December 6, 2010 Author Share Posted December 6, 2010 Here are a few more pics as you can see the engine needs some work to put back together but on fuel injection and the right compression, about 13:1, it should eligibly be good for 173bhp including the remap. Don`t forget this is the TRD cup engine used back in the 80`s for racing and rallying. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
whiteglanzav Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 are you forging it too ?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ste91 Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 are you forging it too ??Just look at the pics of those pistons and rods above...13:1 is pretty high compression! What's this engine supposed to rev to? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jonog Posted December 6, 2010 Author Share Posted December 6, 2010 Hi l am sorry not to reply sooner but the owner has not said to what it will rev to but has said that the crankshaft is a hollow item, the rods are H-pattern specially machined for this engine and the block has been likewise modified.The pistons are machined 2EE without rings at the moment and the block has been planed by 2mm thus bringing about the high compression ratio with the right head.

whiteglanzav Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 Just look at the pics of those pistons and rods above...13:1 is pretty high compression! What's this engine supposed to rev to?there are 2 different rods and those pistons dont specifically look forged Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jonog Posted December 6, 2010 Author Share Posted December 6, 2010 Yes well spotted they are merely for comparison! and l did not say that the pistons were forged, that would be a nice addition.Can anyone shed some light on this engine as regards figures from TRD or better still maybe a brochure from the era listing the mods made.
