its all been covered before, check the link in my sig.

basically the celica has a 2nd ECU (body computer) that takes care of some of the things that our ECU does. the looms in the celica and corolla cars are diff to reflect the ECU's in the cars.

did u changed the knock sensor to are single wire?

i think we just used a single wire, i would have to go back through all the install notes i have.

according to the US guys power fc wont work with the 2 wire knock sensor, so they just change it over to are single wire and use are knock sensor from the 99-01 celica

well i know that we didn't change any of the knock sensors and i know they work cause i can see the knock reading on the PFC Commander.

since u got the power fc working, have ever considered trying the celica ecu and dynoed it back to back,and drivability differences?

the celica ECU would be no diff to the stock one i would imagine so i really cant see the point....?

i think that is for the US models, as far as i know the Aus delivered ones carry the same as the sportivo.

since you are putting this PFC in for the 2zz you have in a Spyder, i am thinking you are going to have some difficulties, because basically you are trying to match up a Celica GTS ECU (2zz) with a car built on a 1zz ECU, so i just wouldnt be expecting some electronics to be working maybe...

to try and get the best compatability going you are going to need an Aus Spec 2zz (Celica or Stivo, whichever one you got your engine from), MR-S and Celica GTS ECU "pinout". I know some guys in the US have done this conversion, but i am not sure whether they were using the PFC and it is hard to get info on Aus Spec ECUs...

the engines are the same, the only diff is the throttle assembly, on the celica is come straigh out from the intake manifold where the corolla is on a 45deg bend.

my conversion is finished, im using the celica ecu, car runs fine, goes hard and bloody loud

all electrics work,

things to do are

1. get the 6 speed

2. get power fc

only thing stopping me is the funds

but the main question is, is there alot of wiring done for the pfc to work?

cheers

the intake manifold between the stivo and the celica is different.

that must be the 1kw difference of the Stivo ;) :P (141kw for stivo, 140kw for celica)

      Does any one know if the trd sportivo suspension for the 2017 facelift corolla fielder fits the 2013 prefacelift version? Is the chassis the same? Thanks for the help.

      1999 Camry Driver's door locking hatch issue

      It's possible that it could be something fouling or dirt build up, dry, or a broken mechanism, so have a look and give the mechanism some lubrication, most likely though, it'll be the actuator. I found one for a good price on Ebay, $25 delivered: Front Door Lock Actuator Right Side For Toyota Camry 1997-2001 | eBay

      Query about the correct rotors for 2006 ACV40 Camry.

      Hi, I'm looking at a set of front rotors for an ACV40 2006, 2.4L Camry. I got a good price on some RDA's at Sparesbox. However both RDA8112 and RDA7686 show as for my car and I'm wondering what the difference is and if there were changes to the rotors during the model production. So does anyone know which rotor is the correct one? Many thanks in advance.

      It's a simple solution though? Already laying down 60k for a RAV4, so what's another 1k on a phone to make everything work seamlessly? 👍

      Your solution is akin to suggesting that switching to a different car manufacturer would resolve the issue. However, not everyone shares the same enthusiasm for using an iPhone as you do.

      Turboed Corolla Overbuilt?

      that engine will be fine, the rods are the main thing to be concerned about. The 2860 is a decent turbo for the 1zz but in this day and age I'd go for a G25-550. The injectors might be on the small side, we run DW1000's. You need a full length injector, the shorter injectors with adaptors like ID1050x dont fit the 1zz head. You don't need an aftermarket intake manifold, if you do go down that path, avoid the CNC innovations unit, it's garbage. Do the boost control with a MAC valve and control it with the aftermarket ECU of your choice, I use Link stuff on most of my builds with the G4x Storm as the minimum. I also wire a fuel pressure sensor and oil pressure sensor to the ECU in my installs. Use a decent intercooler, the better cores (ARE, PWR, Garrett, Vibrant, Plazmaman, Hypertune) work a lot better than the chinese stuff like Aeroflow. a 450x250-300 fits fairly well with custom end tanks to route the cooler pipes through next to the radiator Don't forget about the clutch and gearbox. These days I like the Uniclutch twinplate, Above 300whp you'll want to think about upgrading the 3rd and 4th gears in the box also with the SSC (Hollinger) gear set and install an LSD of your choice. If you're going to give it a hard time, you'll also want an oil cooler. I like the HKS thermostat type sandwich plates and setrab or mocal oil coolers with -10 speedflow fittings/lines (Chinese AN fittings neck down to a lot smaller internal diameter in their bends, not great for flow) You'll also want to think about brakes, Celica or Sportivo front calipers will bolt on with sportivo discs as a starting point. To have somewhere like Tunehouse do the work you'll want to budget somewhere between 20-40K

      Camry Touring 2010 Fuel consumption 15.2L/100km. Normal?

      I did the mathematics myself regarding costs vs benefits for fuel injector cleaner. I have changed from 91ULP to 95PULP and 98PULP. Price difference can be about 13 -20 cents. Compared to 91ULP, Premium quality fuel should have a better quality additive package designed to have superior engine cleaning capabilities so the engine can perform at their best.

      "Fuel injector cleaner is a waste of money" Only if you by the cheap crap if you use LiquMolly a German Product it does work and you won't waste your Money.

      Hi Guys, My Camry 2010 Touring just had a regas done on it and the next day for some reason it wasn't blowing cold air but the next day it is and now working with nice cold air BUT every now and then we can hear and feel a buzz for a few secounds and today while my sister took my car I could her like a mild knocking sound when stopped but goes away when driving off. Any idea what this could be and the A/C is always working now for now.
