@@sushpants I need you to give me some tips to tune the idle of my FX 16 4AGE 16V. sometimes it is hard to start in the morning. When it turns on it stays running at 1,500 RPM and when it is already hot it works very well. I imagine it is a coolant or temperature sensor. please help.
Shout out to Barry at Manon racing products! His parts have saved my 4age 20v bt! N2 tensioner is awesome and anybody having problems with jumping the cambelt should definitely get it.
Love your vids bro I'm a 7age 20v blacktop owner looking to do some stuff on it just putting some dollars together first but your vids just keeps giving me tuns of ideas like that header upgrade you did, upgrade ecu... Just pure fun bro
Changing the input resistor on the tachometer should get it working again or you can use a tach adapter from msd 8920 i believe is the part number. congrats on getting it started such a wonderful feeling i am a fellow link user as well keep up the good content :)
Your videos are great man, I’ve been following them and picking up every lesson learnt! I haven’t gone aftermarket management yet, but Tomei Poncams on stock ECU has been a treat so far!
@@sushpants :D I had a similar scenario with my corolla e80, after putting the harness back it wont budge. Wasted time with all the connections and what not, at the end it was EFI or Engine Fuse I have punished it by pasting it on my garage wall 😀
Nice fancy parts you got there! Congrats. Wish I had been there to help diagnose. Sounded like timing off to me from the first start attempt. This is gonna be sweeeeeet!
@@sushpants For sure. Until you know about that setting, you're obviously going to chase your tail. I only know about it from other videos on the issue!
Way to go with the link ecu, ive installed a standalone maxxecu and had to grind a tooth on the crank sensor fr the trigger and home signal fr it to work .
Lovely work. Technical question. For an aftermarket ECU I’ve been told you need an igniter between the coil (not coil on pack) and the ecu… is this also the case for the coil packs you used? Are you running any hardware between the coils and the ecu? Don’t want to melt my ecu. That would be very sad. Thank you! Sweet little rig you got :)
New Zealand is the Jdm hub of the world, when it comes to 2nd hand jdm cars. From regular passenger mover all the way to rare Jdm cars. You can import any car from around the world to nz. The point is that they have all the different year models of cars regarding the 4age and the rival competitors cars in that category of car and the models that followed years afterward New Zealand has had a trading relationship with Japan for more than 30years. Their was a time when the FXT-GT corolla was everywhere in Nz. Now its rare car. No other country that I have visited has so much jdm car lots like I have seen in NZ. Its a jdm car guys heaven. Miss being there. Contact their parts suppliers even the car new dealerships like Nissan, Toyota etcetera. They will import/oem parts on behalf of the Jdm market due to the huge support just quote the part number. You should go and see the Toyota Festival in NewZealand its a huge event.
I'm excited to see the part 2 and see the results after your dyno tunes! I've been thinking about standalone ECU as well for quite some time. This one you used seems to make top of my list. :) Though I still have to decide as well whether to upgrade my 16V red top, or the 20V black top first. :D
AmpEFI makes a voltage tachometer adapter axm-100, you need to make the tachometer working on these old toyotas, you have the same problem i had back when i put COP on mine, just back then i didnt know what to do about it.
You are a lifesaver. Great suggestion! These older tachometers need that unusual spike in voltage and most ECU's do not send the correct weird spike out from their "tach" output. The AXM-100 is the solution.
Is the engine running off a smallport dizzy only? No trigger wheel on the crank? Hoping to do standalone and ITBs on my ae86 soon. That rally got me itching to tinker with the car again
It’s only running off the 24 tooth distributor. No trigger wheel on the crank. Which standalone and ITB’s are you thinking about doing? Haha, you should try my FX16 out!
Very nice man! Thank you so much or wing detailed. You make it look easy! So when installing a ecu like the link. The hardest part In wiring it is finding that switched 12v for the plugs?
I think you might've just solved my problem there at the end mentioning how the tach is managed by the distributor. Maybe someone can help me put more thought power to this. My car developed a misfire recently right? 99 toyota celica gt the one with the 5S-FE and I ended up changing distributor cap, and the coil plug that runs to the igniter and it solved the misfire but RARELY my tach will act up and bounce around. Think my distributor might be trying to hint to me his time is up?
While I was installing these upgrades I kept starring at the big chunky battery and decided I didn’t want it in the engine bay. I priced out a battery relocation kit and switching to a lithium battery. So it’s gonna happen!
Hello Sushpants! FINNALY after so much time I just bought a 4AGE20vBT. Your Corolla videos where one of the bases to make that purchase. You go on so much detail on everything and you list everything you use in the description....but there is something missing... where did you got the 4AGE20vBT manual? Also, I am getting every mod you do in my engine!
Wouldn't it be a better idea to drill two holes into that mounting plate instead of modifying the _original_ valve cover? Not my car I know, just asking.
Would you mind sharing the offset #'s. I couldn't get mine to start up on cops, exactly like how yours was on this video. Currently running fine with the distributor on Adaptronic.
Hey mate... Just came across your channel! Regarding the coil on plug conversion, do you have to go wit hthe link ECU route with it?!?! Or can the coil on plug conversion just be done on its own?!?!
You retain the cam position sensor from the distributor which is how the ECU knows the engine position. You usually see a crank trigger wheel for RWD 20v swaps because they have to remove the distributor altogether due space limitations.
I have the exact same setup as you, however, could you provide a wiring connection diagram of where you made you connect that I can follow. Mine is a 1999 Levin BZG Blacktop 20v, I would also like to know where to find the pure tach signal wire.
Oh, it was confusing! Reading wiring diagrams to find out which wire went were gave me headaches. I’m going to have a follow up video for people that want to do the same install with a breakdown of everything they’ll need to do it.
Became a big fan of yours when I saw that you have a 4A-GE 20v underneath that hood. I have been meaning to ask how do you get that to pass smog since you're in CA? I have an 89 MR2, wanting to do a swap but I really want to remain true to the 4A-GE. Wanting to know what's involved to make this possible. Thanks
Get any insight into your mr2 question? I'm rebuilding my 89 mr2 right now. I was thinking that a cop system with this would be pretty good. Clean up the engine bay a little.
Yo Sushpants where did you get your original coil lead wire that went to the igniter? Did it come with your blacktop? Could I buy it off you still have it?
@@sushpants мне нравятся твои видео сравнения звука разных моторов и как разная длина trumpets влияет на звук. Я владею кариной 79года недавно поставил weber dcoe40 очень познавательно! 😁
I’m keep it NA and don’t need that crazy of a coil like the r35’s. 1NZ’s should be perfect. It can always be changed to the r35’s if I did go forced induction.

На моменте "Всё хватит" я застыл, а после "Давай прокручивай" челюсть медленно пошла вниз... Неожиданно:)
And I was like, it must be the EFI fuse you pulled earlier :D

But this time I am following along with a link ecu and COP conversion! 😍
Hope all is well!!
Finally a new episode. Really enjoyed it.
Nice fancy parts you got there! Congrats. Wish I had been there to help diagnose. Sounded like timing off to me from the first start attempt. This is gonna be sweeeeeet!
Fancy parts are sooo nice to install :D I figured it was timing as well but for some reason I didn’t think it would be off by a whole rotation.
@@sushpants For sure. Until you know about that setting, you're obviously going to chase your tail. I only know about it from other videos on the issue!
Damn that build is CLEAN
super excited for you!! been waiting to follow along c:
Finally you upload again...
You’re one of my harshest critics :D I hear your comments every time i’m relaxing.
Ahhhhh my fx is still in pieces. I need to finish my harness and get it back together. Thanks for the motivation.
The longer it’s in pieces the harder it will be to put back together!
I absolutely love your videos! Can't wait for the next one.
This video is quite informative and captivating. Makes me wish I owned a Corolla!!
I looove the 20v 4age.
That's a really clean setup! Sweet. I bet it feels nice to get it running with the ECU.
Double check the 02 sensor, I’d personally use the one that came with the wideband unless you know otherwise
They were both identical Bosch LSU 4.9’s but I ended up installing the one that came with the LC-2 controller anyways :)
Cool upgrades!
Super clean ae82 gts!
Oh Yes i'm very interess to this series ! Can't wait for part II ! :O
Way to go with the link ecu, ive installed a standalone maxxecu and had to grind a tooth on the crank sensor fr the trigger and home signal fr it to work .
My install was a little easier because I was able to retain the distributor trigger.
Lovely work. Technical question. For an aftermarket ECU I’ve been told you need an igniter between the coil (not coil on pack) and the ecu… is this also the case for the coil packs you used?

I'd have loved the video of cars dyno run with injectors cleaned, before ecu. But it was also waited moment. Cheers
In my country I've seen them use the old ignition coil and igniter to run the tach

You should relocate the battery to the trunk.

That compression tho.... I've never seen them go below 200psi. With TRD HG that is, not sure whats inside that motor.
It has the standard head gasket. We only have 91 octane gas which increases detonation with a TRD head gasket.

Hello, how is the device working.. stable? I also want to change ..
hi what coil pack did you use thank you
Bad ass
Why did you decide on the 1NZ COP kit vs. the R35 COP kit?
I’m keep it NA and don’t need that crazy of a coil like the r35’s. 1NZ’s should be perfect. It can always be changed to the r35’s if I did go forced induction.
did u see any gains after it was tuned?
