Cam + Crank trigger table for 5th gen 3SGE

[ryojikaji]

I'm trying to create a cam and crank trigger table for my dual vvt-i beams engine. I'm not concerned about the vvt-i at the moment. I just need values so that I can get the timing setup and run this thing. I know this isn't easy information to come by but I have been searching for weeks. You guys seem to know the most about Toyotas in the English speaking world so I'm asking for your help.

Any information would really help. Please and thanks!

I know that the crank is 36-2 but that only gets me halfway there. Any information on how it finds home would be greatly appreciated.


-Thanks

this might help a bit:

gen4 & gen5 3S apparently have the same crank trigger wheel:

I can't find anything about the pattern for the cam triggers.

However, if you have the time, then you could download Adaptronic's base map for a BEAMS (has no fuel/timing data except for an idle, but should be setup for a stock VVTi engine) and go hunting thru the settings section on the cam triggers, you might be able to identify where the teeth on the cams are with respect to TDC.

You don't need their actual ECU, just download their tuning software and then load the settings file while in off-line mode.


edit: was going to also suggest the settings noted on the Haltech and efi101 sites but you seem to have already found them

Thanks for the info. We got it running last night. We still have to figure out the vvti stuff but we will do that on a dyno. Time for a street tune to make it safe to drive then get it to the dyno.
