Ke20 Brakes / Upgrades
The simplest and easiest upgrade is to put KE55 discs onto your existing KE20 hubs. Oversize and tap four holes for the backing plates and everything bolts in. Cost is a set of rotors and calipers from your friendly wrecker, plus rebuild kit.

Look What I Found At The Wreckers
I think they may be of something earlier than that, Corona 1600s perhaps? However, if that's pollution gear I see, that's not corect.....

The Sticks Cruise.
Sorry, what size blouse do you take again? :jamie:

15x7" On The Front Of A Ke20
Hi guys. The big difference is that there is less room on the front of a 20 than there is on a 30/55. I would have thought that the right offset 7" would fit. 14x6's fit a piece of proverbial. 8" would be stretching the friendship.

4wd Rear Ender
No sense of adventure the young people today. If that was a rally car, I know people who'd have that fixed by Monday! Bad luck Rob. However from the initial photo's, it looks retrievable if you want to go in that direction. Chin up. On the bright side you're still with us, and a lot harder to replace than the 400000 Corollas that were made! Oh, and Raven, I get irate with people slagging 4bys. I own a large white one. R

Mig Welders
Buy the best one you can afford and you won't look back. Gasless sucks arse for weld quality. A decent mig rocks. Mig's are a thing where you really get what you pay for.

Dellorto Linkage Kit
I used my Dellorto set on my Webers, I'm 95% sure they should be the same.

What Muffler For Ke-30???
Two inch system is all you'll require. Ummmm...... The only cats KE30's have are the feline kind that sleep on top of them.

What Inspired The First Cressida
Yep, the 2000GT causes me a stirring south of the navel. Would offer up one or both testicles for ownership of one, as they would be surplus to requirements if I brought one of these babies home. :)

Rate The Lancer.
RA40's are a big over-weight barge with the factory handling characteristics of a sack of wet mice. An 18R-C is an asthmatic truck motor that should never be refered in the same sentence as performance. TA22's were a better prospect, but still a bit fat for my liking. Lancers of that era were quite nimble little things with a reasonable amount of poke. A better package, even with the cart spring solid rear end. Yep, before you ask, driven them all. :)

What Should I Do?
Learn to spell exhaust and we may reply to you.

Opinions On A 2tg/3tc Hybrid?
No! No! Don't get me wrong, I've heard some great 4AG's. I'm just an old school Weber man. :)

Opinions On A 2tg/3tc Hybrid?
When you get it going, I'll come around with a chair and a six pack and we can listen to it going around the block a few times.. :)

Will They Fit
Yes, they'll fit. Same floor pan.

Opinions On A 2tg/3tc Hybrid?
It can be done, but how long does it last for?? Injection for the t motor sucks the big one. Webers are the go, 45's on a hybrid. You'l NEVER get a 4AG to sound like that! :)
-
Opinions On A 2tg/3tc Hybrid?
Remind me to show you what a decent 2T_G can do. As for stronger, it all depends on how it's built.
-
Opinions On A 2tg/3tc Hybrid?
Ooops, sorry. I can difinitively state that inlets are different, and exhaust is the same. My apologies about the confusion. :)
-
Opinions On A 2tg/3tc Hybrid?
Yep, exhaust side the same, inlet completely different. 4Y crank? Hmmm, worth a look I suppose....
-
Opinions On A 2tg/3tc Hybrid?
No, the manifolds are completely different. No interchangy's there.:) I can't remember if that's the article that I was thinking of, but it's a damn good one anyway.

Awd Conversion?
It wasn't brand new, it was pre loved, and I'd say in the six figure range.
-
Will It Work
Erm, no. People make cold air induction for them, but you still have to run it through an air cleaner if you want the engine to last longer than three months. I doubt whether you could get a constant radius to the carbie anyway, I don't think you have the height. And at the end of the day, it's a K motor, the improvement would be negligable.

Awd Conversion?
The Turtle was the only AWD Corolla released in Oz. You ain't gunna find an AWD AE82. You can buy the TRD rally Corolla's, a guy in QLD has one. You just need VERY deep pockets. The lump in the tranny tunnel is to house the exhaust and for structural strength, not for a tail shaft. Unless you're a fabricator of the higher order, it'd cost..... well, a lot.
