Any updates?

thanks mate, sounds like it is more trouble then its worth!

All those questions are the same, not sure about a 4ag coil but ol school ones would probably have sound electromagnetic leakage, are you extending the primary lead?
I wouldn't say the questions are all the same, more that they are all related, sorry i will clarify what i am asking, the questions are more related to the power of the field the coil creates, i.e weak field may not impact components around the coil, however if it is a strong field, how far from the computer should i mount the coil so as to it does not interfere? Can I make a shield to to block/ 'capture' any leakage?
I will be extending the the primary lead and will be using the thickest lead i can get.

Hey guys I have a couple of questions re the coil, I am tidying up my engine bay in my 55, doing a full wire tuck and moving/hiding everything, this includes moving the coil to the cabin. It is running a 4age and an ltx8.
1) will the coil induce a current in objects around it?
2) is it likely to interfere with the computer or stereo?
3) How far away should i mount the coil from the computer?
4) Can i make a sheild for the coil by placing a copper pipe over it and then earthing the copper pipe?
5) are these just stupid questions?
Thanks in advance

cheers andre

hay guys as i have recently blown the rings on my worked 5k i was looking into upgrading the engine to the typical 4age etc.
i was hopeing to use a donor car that already has the running conversion to save time and headaches and transplant the running gear into my 35 as it doesnt have any rust and has already had the brakes and suspension upgraded. My problem is i can find plenty of ke70's out there but not many 35's or 55's for a worthwhile price.
what i was wondering is how compatiable are the two cars, would it be a simple bolt out bolt in or are they so different it wouldnt be worth my while.
cheers andre

hi guys i have just recently completed my 5k conversion from my old 4k ...
so the motor is running fine with no problems apart from the stock temperature gauge reading just under hot.. i also have an after market water temp gauge off the top radiator hose which is reading a bit under 60 degrees..
the car has a brand new radiator thermostat coolant etc ...
WHAT do you guys reckon or have you had any similiar problems after this conversion..
cheers

1980 KE55S XX Corolla Coupe
4K-C (1300cc)
4 Speed manual
Stock except for the 14x7.5, 0 offset rims
and now with fender mirrors, black crystal headlights and front lip...
it is going in next week to get the corona front strut conversion modified as coilovers and reset and an extra leaf in the rear and sway bars all round which should tighten it up and bring it down to earth... at the moment the suspension is shagged, and the breakes aren't much better.... once that stuff is sorted it will be time to move onto the engine....
oh and some watanabes are currently in transit...
-
thanks for all the info guys its much appreciated... i was speaking to my mechanic whos a good family friend and hes offered to do all the suspension work for me ... looking at new stiffer shocks front and rear, reseting the leafs and new lower front springs... he said he could organise aftermarket front and rear sway bars to.. . i'll post some pics when finished to let use all know how it went... thanks for the help
-
na nsw unfortunately .. thanks alot for the offer though
-
oh perfect thanks alot
-
hay guys ... just doing a little research into lowering my rolla..
the rear shocks are gone so was going to upgrade them when replacing but was wondering if i am going to lower the rear will i need shorter shocks... also what shocks do you guys recomend ...
is it a hard process to do myself swapping shocks and lowering the car all round...
oh and also what set up at the front do you guys also recomend keeping in mind i want to do it properly not dodgy like cutting the springs etc...
-
oh ok thanks alot for that really helps...
in that case i'll get the wheels and will put some picks up when there on ...
-
thanks for that... so do you reckon i'll get away with it then ...
excuse my ignorance i don't have a clue when it comes to things like offset.. is it the lesser the offset the more the wheels will stick out of the guards and vise versa ???
