Toyota FX model, diesel or gasoline?

[glenn manikis]

converting the engine of an Fx to 2L will take a toll on its suspension and engine support then hindi din po kasya ang 2L kailangan nyo pang tabasan ang loob ng fx... at napakadami pong e-coconvert... ang pagkakaalam ko po nagiging sakit na sa ulo ang fx the moment na palitan mo ng 2L na engine... dahil nga converted so wala na sa specs.. kaya naman under powered daw ang fx eh dahil lagi pong over loaded....

Ganun ba? Halata ko lang kasi ang laki pa ng engine bay ng FX with its original engine, and the 2L is relatively small, leaving lots of free space in the Revo engine bay...

Yup maluwag nga po ang engine bay ng FX but one of the biggest hurdle is yun transfercase ng 2L. madami mounting na gagalawin at para mag fit madami din tatabasin sa ilalim at katawan.

We had in our family a 5K powered FX. 2L sana ipapalit dahil matibay nga compared sa 2C turbo (i've seen 2Cs that have overheated damay head at pati block nag warp, albeit that was a worst case scenario). Isa papala malaki bigat ng 2L compared sa 2C. HTH

Ganon? So ano ang pinalitan in the end? Ang 7K-E o 7AFE kaya?

compare naman sa isuzu mas modelo nga pero yung mga pamasada nga na highlander yearly daw ang calibration, samantalang ang mga pamasadang fx more than 5 years tatagal ang injection pump wag lang mapabayaan tangke baka madumi na at fuel filter....

yearly po ba talaga DAW ang calibration? di pa po kasi namin napapa calibrate ung amin hehehe, no problems so far, pati yung ipv namin once palang na calibrate pero nasa 370,000 + kms na natakbo, so baka di po masyado totoo yung yearly?

BTT:

get the diesel toyota fx po, better fuel consumption. sana makakita po kayo nung well maintained pa na unit para good buy!

[GTi]

^Hehehe~ Laspag na laspag na siguro ang 4JA1 nila. Yung tipong napaka high mileage na, maintained like a jeepney pa.

*TS: Another option for you would be to gain approval for slight budget increase. Sabihin sa asawa ang mga problems pertaining the 2C engine. Kaya naman at high 100+k to low 200+k budget ang late 90s Hilander and Adventure.

sir pamasada po yung highlander at yung fx na sinasabi ko bugbog sarado talaga... yung mga unang taon no prob. ang injection pump ng highlander pero the moment na ma pa calibrate na ito, yearly na po ang pag calibrate... unlike dun sa fx hindi man lang nagalaw ang inj. pump.... ang sasakyan pag ginamit na pang puv talagang lahat po ng mahina siguradong lalabas... sa fx ang mahina dyan eh ang electrical system at ang vacuum pump... nasubukan na din po namin palitan ng 2L yung fx naku sakit sa ulo!! yung highlander matibay din naman... kaso mas mahal po at maliit lang ang budget ni ts..... gamitin nalang nya sa pang maintain ang idadagdag pareho lang naman ang GAMIT ng FX at Highlander.... at PANG BUKID TALAGA ANG FX KAYA nga Tamaraw FX ang Tawag.... mas matibay pa sa kalabaw... he.he..

2C turbo din nauwi. Alaga na lang. In the long run yun na pinaka practical ipalit sa FX.

7K kasya. no problem, kaso gas powered padin and with an even larger displacement, at least on paper mas malakas sa gas sya kaysa sa 5K. 7AFE wala pa akong experience na nakita sa FX pero I have seen 4AF engines(being similar to 7AF) mounted in a longitudinal fashion sa owner type pero palitin ang bell housing ng tranny and mga mountings. I have no idea if it would work as a replacement engine on an FX though.

Napa-isip kasi ako when I saw this...

if this is the case so definitely no convertion option coz of engine size otherwise lots of expenses to incur... sayang i like the 2L coz of good feedback pa naman...tenxs sir babkalakal

[armscor40]

*sir digitel - i was hoping against hope that i could find one just like searching a needle in a haystack

*sir GTi - we already talk about the financial burden this would entail & she specifically pointed out my budget...sabi nya ano silbi ng van kung bibili na naman ng isa pa at mahal pa so there goes the litany of cons kaya i won't insist better stick to the plan baka maunsyami pa hehe

thanks mga bros on the advices

[armscor40]

... nasubukan na din po namin palitan ng 2L yung fx naku sakit sa ulo!! yung highlander matibay din naman... kaso mas mahal po at maliit lang ang budget ni ts..... gamitin nalang nya sa pang maintain ang idadagdag pareho lang naman ang GAMIT ng FX at Highlander.... at PANG BUKID TALAGA ANG FX KAYA nga Tamaraw FX ang Tawag.... mas matibay pa sa kalabaw... he.he..

at least from personal experience ang convertion na ginawa ni sir glenn, not arguable...highlander is out of the budget...statement of same purpose fits me well on this...this is an outright expression of reality NATUMBOK nyo sir, hindi ko naisip at first yun ah...so there goes my choice na...hope somebody won't contradict hehe

[armscor40]

engine po ba ng corolla ito late 90's as indicated on the engine markings? fit the FX engine bay? kaso baka mas malakas sa gas...

Hahaha~ Kahit around 30-50k ayaw parin? You must understand that if you really did get an FX and then would still have to bother to do an engine swap, in the end you might actually end up spending more.

[armscor40]

actually sir i'm not thinking anymore of engine replacement but more of finding good unit/engine w/ at least presentable appearance hehe

if i have my way sir i will choose what you propose but its not the case here its more of practicality over convenience...even if i did get a cheap but good unit i'll take care of it coz when it comes to vehicles "maalaga naman po ako"...anyway my practical car is ?_coming soon_? but my convenient ride is our jumbo...so there goes the comparison, thanks for the info on sulit...i'm always on the lookout na nga po eh kahit ayosdito nag-aabang na din hehe

[armscor40]

since i was given a thread about this model, thanks Admin hope its not late hehe

i'm also going to ask mga owners here where do you sourced your parts (engine & transmission) brand new or surplus???

what about mods? meron pa ba?

is it possible to convert the manual window & door lock to automatic para maging power amenities nya??? pwede ba?

then the rest follows afterwards...

source parts engine and tranny, madami tayong makukuhaan niyan, meron sa Cavite, Raon, Blumentrit, Banawe etc....yes, power windows and power door locks conversion from manual, madali lang yan...marami ng nagwa niya, tingin-tingin ka lang along di hi-way sa inyo. Lalo sa Banawe dami nagpapaganyan...price depende sa usapan niyo, kung ikaw hahanap ng materials, mas mura kasi labor installation na lang, pero kung parts and labor sa kanila...medyo pricey, pero ok na rin.

e since pangharabas lang naman, Hyundai Grace na lang? or yung H-100 may power amenities.

[GTi]

^Onga noh! Bat di ko na-isip yan! Here we are thinking about a car that can potentially give you cracked cylinder heads or cracked whole engine blocks when there are more capable cars out there that can be had for the same budget.

The Hyundai Grace is a very worthy car. Basically a rebadged Delica, you can bet that its a reliable car. Parts are also easily interchangeable with Mitsubishi parts if the situation requires it. Hyundai Grace Singkit All Power Diesel MT - 2000 | Cars for sale Quezon City | AyosDito.ph

An even more refined option would be the Kia Pregio. Now that's one van that can rival the Starex in terms of comfort. Lubos lubos na talaga para sa barrio. Kia Pregio MT - 98 | Cars for sale Las Piñas | AyosDito.ph
