    My is my IP blocked from the FAQ edit? (141.168.0.45)

    I have made heaps of corrections, and want to correct the Torana carby section, the 4cly Starfire are strasbourg's not stromburgs and are very differnt carbys, good performance for K engines as the are performance carby's for 4cly non-cross flow pushrod 2valve-per cly heads, and are suited to 1.2-2.2ltr engines.

     

    So if sum admin could tell me y, id appreciate it, or if someone else wants to make the corrections thats great, i hope u know all the info.

  4. I Want Power That I Can Drive

    For the price of doing an intercooled DCOE 4K turbo, I could build a custom EFI setup and probably include the ECU & Turbo in the price. Leave the carbys for n/a engines. EFI is the way to go, infinite tunability.

     

    Ill take 1 set please.

     

    Is that for a 7k-e manifold/runners/stuff? how much are they?

     

    and how much u recon it would cost for a turbo efi setup?

    i've got a zoom mag with a sleeper 10 second 1GGTE gemini in it. they can go pretty hard if you really want them to.

    There are 10sec ma61 supra's with 1g-gte's, but like that gem they rnt very drivable.

    NB: ther is also 9sec gem's with the stock block, so that doesnt say much :rocknroll:

     

    what about a intercooled turbo 40mm DCOE turbo 4k? (ie not draw through).

    That way u don't even have to shave the head, and it is way cheaper than a full conversion.

    I can even make up a 14sec figure for u!

     

    With struts and sus. all of a celica, and a live axel+lsd (from TRD) combo off a t-18?

  9. 3s-ge, And Toyota Engine Codes

    yes :D

    poorly listed ad's my friend :y:

     

    don't worry, i take it they following numbers mean nothing. Ill jsut have to go inspect the good my self...

     

    Although, does anyone know if the cc on the rego papers is 100% correct? Or is is jsut estimated? EG: Mechanic - "Wells its about 2ltr, ill jsut write 1997cc", or do they find the engine number and say "3S-GE, well thats acctually 1998cc". ??

  11. 3s-ge, And Toyota Engine Codes

    Hi, i need some help with engine numbers:

     

    I know all the first ones, eg 3S-GE

     

    3= 3rd vr

    S= block

    G= cam (either wide or twin)

    E= efi

     

    But what about the other numbers that come after, do they mean anything?

    eg: "UG4HFM551628" is quoted as an engine number, any ideas what this comes off/after?

     

    Thanks a lot, this is very important!

  12. 32mm Webber On 4k

    in KExx Corolla Discussion

    Posted · Edited by TOSCO

    Weber's are a very specific carby, and really only suit cross flow heads.

    "32mm Weber's" isnt very helpful though, but i suppose uve been advised to get the ones off old fords, which arnt really performance carby's, but better than other produciton carby's.

     

    DOCE on the other hand would kinda need twincam multivalve heads with custom exhaust. There is a Weber specialist in Sydney i use, and without touching my weber carby's on my old gemini (1.8ltr SOHC), got me an extra 16kw with a custom exhaust, its bends and length are quite differnet to the norm.

     

    U can buy a single DOCE into a 3/4k manifold (thats 1 weber off a twin weber set) and is supposed to be good, but i wouldnt bother unless i was planing to do a lot of other head work.

    (thats 40 - 42 - 45mm)

     

    On the other hand, there is a good Gemini Nikki Carby "how to" on this site, describing the procedure to stick them on a stock K intake manifold.

    Id say this is a good option, as it isnt a bad carby, and parts are really cheap.

    Nikki in running condition (out of a running car) will cost about $10.

    And a rebuild kit is about $60.

    Ive got a few spare Nikki's, and have rebuild a few as well, and compared to a set of Weber's its a joke for price. (Rebuild and tune for a pair of DOCE's is probably $600-$800

  14. Sway Bars

    in KExx Corolla Discussion

    Posted

    Another useful way to double check if certain items are interchangable, is to look at catalogues and compare part numbers.

    Whiteline list the swaybar products for ke10-15 as a different part number to the ke25's. I think its a pretty safe bet that there is some sort of difference between the two.

    Thats the "theoretical" explanation. However, they may fit in real life. Maybe other ke10-15 or ke25 owners can shed some light on the issue.

     

    How do you search for car specific items in that site? eg ke70 rear?
