Talking Celica cam removal pics........

for anyone who doesnt know, Celica GT-S's have a thing called "lift" well theres a bolt that everyone calls the lift bolt that breaks causing lift to fail or be weak. (the reason alot of gt-s's are slow as a GT)

well I pulled 1 apart on saturday to fix it. Here's the pics!

Really helpful. Why bother posting in the first place?

I'm not sure what it is either (if it's specific for a Celica).

yeah it wasnt that hard. takes about 4hrs to do.

"lift" is what makes the GT-S different from the GT. Its kinda like Ivtec in a way. lol

Thanx for posting the pics cambo!

=============================

shmeb - the people this was posted for know who they are lol

=============================

pic #1
Coil packs
valve cover bolts
oil cap
VVTLI control valve (sends oil through to engage lift)

pic #2
exposed cams, fluid control valve out

pic#3
Belt off

pic #4
exposed cams with "lift bolt" removed

pic #5
removed cam

pic #6 & #7
closeup of cam removed

pic #8
This is a close up of the piece that stays up causing "lift"

pic #9
the broken piece we did all of this to remove. (the reason 80% of GT-S's are slow, it causes them to lose lift)

pic #10
removed cam again

pic #11
the shaft oil goes in to push the shim that pops up the rod causing "lift"

pic #12
all done and back together

It's NOT my car. lol it's another GT-S I pulled apart on saturday.

he couldnt go to the dealer cause hes outa warranty. I posted it cause some nameless members were trying to flame me for not knowing about celicas. lol What they didnt know is I pull them apart all the time. lol so I posted these pics for them!

And it shouldnt look bronze like that. He was using some funky oil. lol

<----Silver GTS NOT red!!!
