all crazy tuners here! - Toyota RAV4, 2.0L, 2006

For a long time I have been tormented by the imposing idea of ​​transplanting a heart and a box into my graf from an American brother (3.5 liters and 5-speed automatic transmission) ... I already found a used box and engine in the USA. can someone tell me how the whole thing is customs and what nuances can emerge during a transplant?

Well, apart from replacing brakes, springs, etc., of course =)))

Is it worth it? isn't it easier to sell Raf and take RX or Highlander?

you are not the first one who asks me this question =))) even if it is impractical, confusing, but then the surprised looks of other owners of ravchiks will warm my soul =)))

eh ... the words of a person who looks at things soberly =))) maybe I'll burn out ... because if you dig around and ask around from knowledgeable people, then you seriously understand that this is a whole thing, to bring something like this to life ...

In addition to the heart and the box, the "brain" of the car will have to be changed ... and perhaps the entire electronics network ... in my opinion, it's not worth it ... this is a jeep ... there was a Beshka 316, and the question is whether to install an M3 engine in it? but ... a jeep?

here I absolutely agree!

may be. but diesel costs more than 92. And if you add the costs of its maintenance and possible problems, the savings are not so significant.
all the more, 92 normal is easier to find than a diesel engine :)

Karl234 01.12.20

they say that it was more relevant earlier =) it also seems to be getting more expensive. it seems to me that now the most relevant is diesel =)

By the way, the topic of gas on large-volume cars is very relevant :)

K
Karl234 01.12.20

and what, also an exit =)

a
advoCAT 01.12.20

yeah. and everyone would switch to gas together: D

K
Karl234 01.12.20

it would be better to include it in the price of gasoline.

a
advoCAT 01.12.20

but there are transport taxes that they want to double :)

K
Karl234 01.12.20

power is good =) there is never enough of it =)

fan ... :) it's just too early for me to reach such capacities :)
although on infinite r35x with 315 hp I really liked it :)

Karl234 01.12.20

you are not a fan of cars! = P

a
advoCAT 01.12.20

well yes. it's really too much for me :)

Segolna in the quattrorot showed a white is250 restyled. so handsome :)

K
Karl234 01.12.20

in-in! the Japanese are generally handsome =) they are all the old things they are pushing to us and to Europe =) but for themselves they make just super-duper equipment! however, in our conditions, this high-tech equipment will die quickly =)

so excellent :) like nissan vq30-outboard engine :)

so I heard something like that. and conventional injection means. Yes damn it, this block (the structure itself) is already 30 years old! Toyota has already installed it on all cars, except for cruziks =)

a
advoCAT 01.12.20

no, this is the valve timing control mechanism. something to do with it!

K
Karl234 01.12.20

no =) normal =) VVT-i, but this does not seem to mean direct injection.

a
advoCAT 01.12.20

well yes. it is yes. Do you have a capacity not d-4? with direct injection?

K
Karl234 01.12.20

there is nothing at all for this engine that could increase its power (all sorts of zero filters do not count). So you have to improvise if you think about something with the compressor. I also doubt the box will withstand the installation of the compressor. she is, of course, strong, but still. And when you have a volume of 3.5 it's a completely different power reserve and the sensations of this power are completely different.

a
advoCAT 01.12.20

Well, if they do, then ... why not a compressor, for example?

K
Karl234 01.12.20

good friends will install, so the prices are preferential =)

a
advoCAT 01.12.20

very difficult. bring and clear the floor of the case.
the same amount will have to be invested in the installation.
