Good weather
Nice news for those who are a little at home in sporty Toyotas from the past: Toyota takes the 4a-ge partly back into production. For some, that engine code sounds like music to the ears.
Some engines have made such an indelible impression that car enthusiasts have enough of the engine code to know what it is about. For example, think of the 2Jz and the LS. The 4a-ge is perhaps less known, but is of great importance for lovers of Japanese sporting cars. That engine, one of a double camshaft and sixteen valves equipped with Toyota’s old four-cylinder A-motors family, was in the famous AE86 (Corolla Levin and Sprinter Treno), for example. That car has a huge crowd of enthusiasts and Toyota does see market in it.
Toyota takes the base of the bottom block and the cylinder head of the 4A-Ge back into production, to be able to pick up a lot of all the key to cars with this engine. “To ensure that beloved cars can be used in optimum condition for years, these two GR Heritage Parts have been modernized using the latest simulation technology, production methods and materials, while maintaining the original basic design and the original specifications,” says Toyota. Better than original, it seems. It will probably not be cheap.
The 4A-Gebrepte in 1983 and then ended up in the AE86 but also in the Celica and Carina. The sixteen valve remained in production until 1991 and delivered at most 140 hp power to the factory. A twenty -valve further development also appeared, which came to be in Japan in Toyotas until the beginning of this century. It was strong until 165 hp. With a supercharger on it (4a-Gze), the sixteen-valve version came to about the same power.
