japexae102

Thank You. Yes the corolla is consider the same in the US. Most parts were imported from Japan but I did get some quality suspension pieces from Whiteline/SuperPro :locked: . The back is mostly stock but I have a Fujitsubo LegalisR exhaust system back there.

It is a 1996 AE102.. I believe australia got the same model.

Hello, thanks for the response! I received your email and replied. That is a BEAUTIFUL engine shot! I read you only recently purchased your car in the other thread, sorry to hear about the trouble you ran into with the water pump, hopefully you will get it resolved easily.. best of luck with your car! Here is mines.. NA :) ;) And in case you are curious here is a a shot of my car It has a liberal amount of work done to it so don't get the idea every corolla in the states look like it. ;)

Hello, I am the owner of 7AFE powered AE102 Corolla in the US.. I've recently got wind that you guys have a factory turbocharged Corolla! I'm really intrested in the mechanics and engineering behind it.. from what I understand Toyota simply bolted on a turbo kit to a stock block and upgraded the fuel managment leaving the block and internals untouched.. And with that the factory boost is set to 8psi? Well I am thinking about building my own turbo kit but I am running into problems with intercooler plumbing.. Like how did Toyota bend the chargepipes around the factory foglights for the intercooler? Any pictures or infomation would be much appeciated!
