Whats a 4a-lc?... Tried googling up but cant find anything :wavey:
Oh and welcome to ZTH also, haha

 

[moonpie33]

the 4alc is a 1.6 liter motor that was offered in the ae-82 83-87 toyota corollas
it makes a little under 90 hp but gets amazing mpg

plus my supra is killing me on gas lol
thats what i get for having a 12 sec car........... o well

my accelerator pump is shot and i the diaphram is also shot so either a rebuild kit or i just get one from a running car.

yeah i just found this forum.
im very active over on celicasupra.com

Supra eh? I seem to be more intrested in that rather than the 4a-lc hahaha. Why not convert it to efi? Maybe a 4age or something... over here I doubt we got 4a-lc's

 

[moonpie33]

lol the 4alc is for gas
i have a 1985 it has 66k on the odm
she has a 7mge in her i wanrted more TQ lol
and shes a nice little 5 speed
i built her up this last summer

The only time i saw a 4A-L is on one of out members Toyota AE82 4 door corolla LE. Its also a hard to find part over here.

Haha I doubt that a 4age would be a heavy drinker. How much can a 1.6 drink anyway? :rolleyes:
7mge? Which gen of supra you driving anyway?...

oh! 4a-lc is single cam....maybe easier to try a weber DCNF downdraft carb.

for your celica...suggest upgrading to the 2JZ-gte...apparently more durable!

 

[LittleWhiteWagon]

Haha if im not mistaken the JZ there is expensive. 7mge also ok what
Weber drinks alot of petrol right?...

dcnf actually quite economical!!!

 

[LittleWhiteWagon]

Hmm... then again, who converts their 4age's to webers nowadays? Hahaha Really? Then maybe I should consider going for dcnf, its downdraft right the dcnf?

 

[1JZtezza]

DCNF....as a replacement carb(for 4a-lc) I think its pretty good and may even be cheaper than stock carbs...that is if you can find them!

4age i think came fuel injected....ah but the sound of a screaming dcoe engine with ram pipes...its something to experience!!! hahaha

here is a link:Which is the right Weber is for me????

 

[LittleWhiteWagon]

1JZ: Haha you arrr, throw away the 4age's Efi for DCOE's . Im a big fan of side drafts also so thats my plan for my car, however if I had a 4age i'd probably take the 4 throttles from the silver/blacktop then install it.

 

[moonpie33]

my supra is a mk2 the secound generation except i used a motor from a newer model supra its totally swapped and custom

In other words the celica supra huh? People here usually go for a JZ swap immediately though :rolleyes:

Yeah I know where the 7m came from, the 3rd gen. Youre using the gte or just a ge?
