2006年8月26日 · The 5SFE is an extremely reliable engine. The causes of most problems seem to be; running out of oil and overheating (due to lack of maintenance) and extreme hot rodding. Reactions: S8toman2 and HowBoutAToyota

2009年6月2日 · The 5sfe is the standard n/a engine that sold in MKII MR2's in the United States. IIRC, there were a few early '91's that had the 3sfe here, but very few. The 3sfe was also sold in England. The probability is very high that you have the 5sfe since yours is a '92.

2008年6月29日 · Probably 150-180rwhp depending on what other supporting mods are done. The highest on record 5SFEs fall somewhere in between Mild and Performance because they had the fuel control but only mild cams. A 150rwhp or higher 5SFE should be able to be built for for less then $2000 if you find the right deals and install everything yourself. (Bare ...

2011年9月27日 · But 5sfe's, especially rev2s, work really well with piggybacks when running NA. If you choose to turbo in the future make sure you focus on the tuning aspects the most. A piggyback can be used in this case too but is not as flexible as a full programmable engine management system.

2008年5月15日 · Instead of telling them to search just direct them to the 5sfe performance thread (of doom) Intakes = No horsepower gain. <-- that is a period, no ifs and or buts... The stock Toyota intake is an excellent design for the 5s, the only thing you have to gain replacing an intake is noise, and the 5s will make it if you put an after market on.

2017年1月26日 · The 5SFE leaks oil and in a month's time, it's very low on oil. Most people don't check the oil level regularly and that caused the lubrication issue leading to engine quality degradation. So are most people just buying 5SFEs from the yard and slapping them on and returning the old one for the core? :nerd:

2010年3月2日 · A boosted 5sfe should last you a while just make sure you get fresh bearings, I know this because my uncle had a boosted 5sfe on his mr2 many years ago,He ran with a turbo until I was old enough to drive.Topend performance can also build up a 5sfte to handle about 350hp if money is not an issue.

2006年2月8日 · Ok, i believe this is in the right place. I started building my 5sfte, and would like some comments on what supporting mods would be. Bottom End 5sfe block decked, bored, and honed to 87.5mm (.5mm overbore) Cp custom pistons to fit bore Eagle 3sgte rods, Crank machined to 3s rod sizes, Should i...

2013年8月29日 · I have a 97 with the 5SFE - Im at 199,500k (miles) when i pulled into my driveway from work today. I have to be honest, I have had to do some work on it, but i have no idea how prior owners treated it. it was a semi-gift from my dad after someone t-boned my Tacoma and totaled it. god i miss that truck...

2007年10月26日 · the 5sfe is a "slave cam" design, meaning the exhaust cam is driven by a gear attached to it, and a corresponding gear on the intake cam. using an adjustable cam gear can be done (IIRC the 2jz cam gear is an easy mod to fit, and ATS racing can make one from a stock gear) but, adjustability is deminished because of the slave cam design.
