    Hi Everyone!

    I'm gonna being doing an engine conversion for an AE86... An AE92 MAP sensored 4AGZE...

    The engine is not in the car yet but what I wanted to know is, what are the recommended things that should be done or consider changing/fixing/checking before putting the engine into the car? Let's say seals? gaskets? etc...

    It'll just be a standard supercharger engine setup.

    I don't know the condition of the engine though.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Cheers! =)

    you should:
    - replace rear main seal
    - check clutch condition, or fit new clucth
    - replace timing belt and tensioner.
    - check condition of water pump ie leaks or free play
    - compression test while engine out of car, saves finding out its buggered after you have fitted it!

    and a general check over for oil leaks and broken wiring plugs and the like

    (i can cut and paste too, refer toymods)

    if your going to be running a front mount intercooler, id consider changing your inlet manifold, (Mattyshop has done a tech article on it).

    The idle on these things is hard to get right when you have a front mounted intercooler.

    Not a neccesity, but can help to iron out the little annoyances
