Toyota's Interchangable Oddities.... (TIO#)

[Major Clod]

KE70 Front Swaybar fits into RA23.. Very similar bar except the KE70 sweeps forward about 80mm in the engine bay, great for front sump conversions. Also 22mm compared to the stock 19mm.

7mge buckets fit 4afc heads

nissan gazelle (solid rear axle type) rear shocks fit RA60 celica rear. only effort needed is to swap the bushes as the gazelle one is too narrow... the great thing about this is that it also means heavy duty el falcon shocks will fit and these are also shorter so like using short stroke shocks.

I have a feally the fronts may be the same story but im yet to confirm

[CELICASUPRA7M]

they fit but when you jack the car up from a body point the wheels droop so much the springs dislodge and cock over on a stupid angle.

Might belong in that other thread, but you can add Audi, Chrysler Neon & PT Cuiser (same offset as the celica) and VW Golf, Passat and Polo to that list of cars with a 5x100 stud pattern.

I know this is an old one, but the Chrylsers are not 100mm, they are 4", making them 5x102, which is enough to not make them fit (confirmed when trying a Subaru rim on a Neon)

Oh and to add to the info thread - St205 rear brake assembly including- i mean everthing , from the mounting arms up, handbrake cables - bolt straight onto a 185 with no modifications .. thios means you can retain the dust shields on the full size rotor - and not have to cut , remove or bend it

Advice though would be check rim spacing first if your using less than a 17 inch rim - as some styles of 16's will just touch by the slimmest of margains on the caliper ( due to rim design , not actual toyota components )

ST205 rear Calipers and rotors bolt directly onto ST215 Caldina without changing the backing plate or handbrake mechanism (but the backing plate needs to be trimmed to clear the rotor)

It's probably in here somewhere, but I have found that the ST141/RT142 Corona Mirrors are externally identical to the KE70/AE71 Corolla Mirrors. And every ST141/RT142 Corona I have seen has a passenger side one, whereas most Corollas I have seen haven't. Mine does now...

Also, I did notice that most of the Corona ones are internally adjustable, whereas most Corolla ones aren't.

There's a slight difference in the mounting holes, as I will show with picachures tonight sometime.

L/YN80 and 85 hilux front shocks will fit the front of c and y powered lite/master/townace vans with a little adjustment to the bottom shock bracket.
LN130 Landcruiser front shocks will fit the rear of the 4 link lite/master/townace vans, they are shorter so will keep E36 bmw rear lowering springs captive.

Mine has Dobi sport super lows in the rear, i think they are 180-190mm long free height.

just wondering if a 22RE intake manifold fits onto a 22R head?

[rick q]

Not sure if it's been posted in here (it might be common knowledge) but the 16V oil pump assembly is identical to the 20V Silvertop. Can't vouch for the Blacktop.

Genuine Toyota Part No is 15100-19036

[TERRA Operative]

And the smallport GZE/Silvertop oil pump is an improved design over the earlier oil pumps.

[MR22ZZ]

is the bigport oilpump compatible (the same) with the smallport one?

mx83 AFM in place of 1GGTE AFM, works a treat

Been reading thru this post and could not find any reference to what rear disc brakes will bolt onto a TA22 rear end. I was told that the MA61 and the RA40 GT discs would bolt straight on.

Can someone confirm this?

The most easily obtainable disc brake conversion, and one with minimum hassles, is the entire brake setup from a ST141 Corona Avanti. You will have to press the bearing off your axles to install the new bearing retainer plate. Press on new bearing, install new sael, have some new brake lines made up, and last of all have some new frrules placed on the handbrake cables. No such thing as a bolt on conversion in my opinion, as there is always something that needs to be made.
