Bare in mind that going from +12 to 0 will give you obviously 12mm more poke, then going to an 8 will stick it out another half inch.

We (aus) can get RB in 4x114..... https://www.rotawheels.com.au/wheels/rota-rb

What car is this for? 55 backing plates are the same as 30. Early 55's had the same calipers as 30's the later had girlock calipers the same as 70's. 30 rotors are also the same diameter as 55 but 2mm thinner.

Ha. Put another blouse on lol. I can tell you that when I put my k-t in the original cable slotted straight into the Speedo drive. Haven't got my w50 any more but pretty sure that was just the same too though. You'd need a matching set of gears though and the output shaft on the w box would no doubt be bigger so the gear would be loose on a k shaft.

Yeah I was quoted $140 for the 195s, you can get them four $111 off eBay but then need to pay freight. The achilies are $145.

Ok so little bit of an update. Have my approval in principal back, only thing I got pulled up on was tyre size. Due to "sectional width" I'm only aloud to run a 205/45/R15 (which doesn't exist) or a 195/50/R15. In which case I'll throw some semi clicks back on so will either be some Achilies 123 or maybe some Federal 595 RSR. If anybody has feedback on either I'd like to hear it. Just finished off my new fuel system. Now consists of a original tank with aftermarket level sender, Carter 4070 lift pump with an aeroflow reusable filter, aeroflow surge tank, Bosch 044, and all line/fittings in aeroflow -6. Things didn't quite fit how I originally planned so there were a few changes in configuration. While I had the boot all stripped out I gave it a coat of primer and some textured under body sealer for durability. When I fix some little rust holes in the lower rare quarters I'll paint the rest out too. Also made up a new panel for behind the tank, scored the material free from work. Its maybe a little to shiny but the price was right. For ease of mounting I also made up an alloy plate which the surge tank and 044 mount to. That tidied things up nicely too. Stripped.... Primed..... Underbody on.... System all finished.... Just waiting on some wheels to arrive now and then I can get my inspections done.

Worth noting also Mazda stopped making 12a parts a few years ago

Ring crow in Melbourne, theyll grind to whatever specs you want provided there's enough meat on the bone. The lady there who answers the phone would have forgotten more about camshafts than most of us will ever know!

Does the ecu have an a/c request wire? My wolf does to compensate for the extra load of the compressor kicking in.

Tank vacuum?

For a while they were selling 86 kits with an aftermarket cast lower stub section as you can see in my picture. Apparently they were to expensive to produce so they stopped making them, I luckily got there last set. Overall length would probably still be the same, mine just has more bare thread. Here's another pic..... http://www.rollaclub.com/board/index.php?app=core&module=attach&section=attach&attach_rel_module=post&attach_id=122877

T50 really isn't that much bigger than a k50..... The problem you're going to face though is the ke10 shifter position is even further forward than a 30/55 so regardless of weather you go ķ50 or t50 you're going to have to cut the hole back further. Btw, that k box is actually a k40 not k50.... I know because I took that photo, someone else added the text.

These are mine..... http://www.rollaclub.com/board/index.php?app=core&module=attach&section=attach&attach_rel_module=post&attach_id=124010

How much extra did they charge you for the lowers with stubs? I bought there last set of normal production ones which were much shorter.

Ta22 is the early one which has a ke30-55 shifter position Ae71 and ae86 is the later with a ke70 position 10 tailshafts are probably smaller spline but a 30-55 shaft will also go straight up the bum of the ta22 box

There's nothing in the ncop that states lowering blocks aren't legal!

Ewww

Current wheels are completely within the flares, the issue it's track. You're only allowed a 25mm track increase. This can be in suspension, wheels or a combination of both and does get enforced and measured pretty hard. With the Alicia's I have 90mm increase. Fyi 30/55's are +35. One option I thought of yesterday was to go with a +20 (which would hopefully clear the coilovers) but take me 5mm over. I could then get some t3 adjustable lca's (albeit expensive) as they can be shortened .25'' (or 6.3mm) a side over stock to bring me smack bang on the 25mm allowable.

No mate, would be just as easy with an sr20det. All comes down to engine capacity relative to weight of the vehicle. Wheels are becoming a nightmare!

Finished work slightly early today and got the chance to go and have a chat with Steve. Really nice guy and very helpful. Great news on most thing. Engine etc easy. ..as I thought it would be. Seats easy, suspension is fine, brakes fine, reckons I could possibly get away with the fuel cell but I will go back to the stock tank. Rest of the fuel setup can be in the boot. The one big hiccup is wheels! More specifically offset. I can get away with 205/50's on a 15. 55's are listed as having a +35 offset, so the furthest you can go is really +25 (cause there's no such thing as a +22.5). That makes me start to worry again that i might have some fouling issues with the coilover rings with a 205. Yes I could apply and pass it with some 185 or maybe 195, but whatever I use will be what it's listed on the mod plate. I figure if the plate says 205/50/15 I'm far less likely to have any future issues if I got pulled over with the alecia's back on.

If you could that would be great. The xx being the only corolla with a factory wheel option essentially dictates what anybody with a ke3x/5x can run width wise. Edit - delayed reply. Still would like to see some xx specific info.

Am on Tuesday

Yep. Pozza only just told me yesterday about the notorious Kingston biker cop. Nah reshell would be a ʞ©$ɟ load more work than making it all legal.

Hey mate, do you still have the tyre placard on the under side of your boot lid? I want to know what the suggested tyre size is for the factory option alloys was?

If I didn't have the tank that I pulled out of the wreck last year I might consider other options to try and keep the cell, but that just makes it the cheap and easy solution. I'll go and see the engineer on Tuesday and see what his opinion is. I wouldn't have a problem sealing the boot from the cabin. After having a good discussion with pozza today and re reading some if the ncop I really need to find out what the widest possibly suggested tyres were. I'm really hoping maybe the xx with factory alloys had something wider than 155's. Otherwise the widest tyre you can legally run on a 55 is a 195 on a 7.5'' (with 60 or smaller profile) wheel.
