From the USA: Dropping a 4AGE engine in a stock SR5
Background: I got this car for 500 USD. Came with a GTS transmission and a car battery as well as GTS fuel pump and GTS engine wiring harness. Car is not running and is missing a ton of stuff from the engine. However, it did come with a 4AGE engine.

Anyways I have ordered the AFM, Airbox, Hose, and Filter as well as an exhaust manifold. What do you guys suggest as the mode of operation? What would I do just to get the car running. Also there is an MR2 in the junkyard: what can I use from that?

Thanks!

Big Question: Which of these parts from MR2 will work in 4AGE AE86

Igniter/Coil
Fusible Link Box on positive battery terminal
Exhaust Manifold
GTS Fuel Lines
O2 sensor

Major thanks to all who have helped me on this forums!!

Thats not a bad deal, looks like a nice bit of work though.

Note that you're missing the water pump pully and mechanical fan, and I don't see an alternator. Probably you can get at least some of these parts from the MR2 if its a 4AG powered AW11. Good excuse also to go for an electrical fan.

Not sure if you could use the total radiator and fan assembly of an AW11, its probably sized differently.

I also do not see an oil cooler, you may need to source those parts or go for a better aftermarket one though that would be overkill Smile

We have experienced a huge wiring crisis here. We have received very low voltage to some of our connections and am missing a bunch of wiring parts. Please tell me if you see any wiring missing from the pictures you see.

I have decided to host this on my server in a neat html page. I just thought that would be easier...

Here is the link:

Any help is greatly appreciated!!!

so today we decided to test if the starter is working: it is. IT is just not receiving power from that little black plug hooked to the starter (terminal 50). When we turn the ignition no power comes to the plug. Also the circuit open relay clicks loudly on ignition--unfortunately nothing else happens.

What are some possible troubleshooting steps. Could somebody please look at our wiring and comment?

Thanks very much!
