  1. The later engines had a bigger journal crank (thinks its 42mm instead of 40mm). When we rebuilt ours we bought one of egay as we put H-Beam rods in it and they only fit the larger journal cranks.
  2. should be a weapon when you get it on the road

  4. you should bring this along next time we take the corollas to a track day
  5. i went to the council meeting a few weeks ago, its not actually being built yet but they own the land and its not south wagga but east wagga out past the shanty
  6. good vid of the 82 here out the fron of the 92 http://youtu.be/61yjzSJPEws
  7. some in car vid racing the ae92 with 4agze. If you look hard round the sweeper when the ae92 is in front you'll see the left rear wheel lift about 12cms. It stays off the ground for most of that turn http://youtu.be/Np4CAazJt3o
  8. Was a really good day, had perfect weather and we took 4 Corolla from Wagga club. Mitch broke an axel in the 3rd round and that ended his day. Our 82 after all the recent updates was 3secs a lap quicker than ever before. I did a low 1.50 but was 2 up all day.
  9. Took it to winon today. Was 3 secs faster than before.
  10. i double checked with ben today and the bots on his are the same size but the washer goes inbetween the bracket off the strut and the hub. That takes out the free space difference.
  11. kewl yohan is coming and mick said he might come down and watch, might leave a little earlier now as yohan have to out in group a so might leave at 5.30am
  12. I just looked at trevs pics and thats different to bens, on bens car the bolts were exactly the same so i'm unsure whats doin there. The strut brackets with the bolt holes were also the exact same size. If its like trevs pics then i'd think u would want to put a either a stepped bolt in it or stepped washer so as there is no way it can travel up and down. Now i know what trev was on about.
  13. there is no extra room coz the washer takes up the space and therefore there is no movement. If it moved around that would be a big problem. The car's been raced already and there is no evidence of movement which makes sense coz it can't actually move
  14. ? no safety issue its a washer as a 2mm spacer. Nothing is or will move,
  15. Well not even 2 months we pulled a full set front and rears pedders out of our superstrut twin cam and sold the to ben who put them into his single cam. All he did was put a washer where the front strut bots to the hub coz they are a couple of mm wider. Of course we swapped the tops over to the the 3 bolt hat type. These are the 2 cars 1 week after it was done.
  16. I prefer red front and black rear but pete wants white, anyway we'll see how it looks we can always change it. The mirrors were white and we didnt like it so went back to black
  17. I went to the council meeting last week. A few farmers who live next to it were complaining about everything including how it will make the curtains fade faster. The pro side were confident after the meeting there was nothing to stop it and council will make a decision in next 2 months so fingers are crossed.
  18. hey boosted, brings back memories reading your thread, great pics and really good read. I've won a lotta khanacross events and on that track in your vids the suspension is way to high, lower it and the times will come down. No need to have it jacked up like a 4 wheel drive on smooth track. Even on the Wagga khanacross track which is rough as guts we still ran lowered pedders and had no trouble. My ae92 4agze build thread is on the link below. I havent updated it for a while but the car performs great and does a 1.45 at Winton. http://www.rollaclub.com/board/topic/48352-4agze-powered-ae92-track-car-build/
  19. ah grasshopper we too have a problem with rear braking performance. See the ae92 is apparently well known to not have enough braking bias to the rear. We've had so much trouble with wearing out the front disc pads b4 a track day is over and we've tried some very expensive pads and rotor upgrades to stop it. Finally sorted now with Bazda brake upgrade. What we did was put ae93 rear rotors and callipers on it. Its pretty much bolt on. The pads are the same but the rotor is bigger diameter so you get more leverage from the clamping power of the bigger disk. Its a shit load of engineering work to adjust the proportioning valve. What would be interesting would be to take a standard ae92 to the engineer and see what rear brake percentage it gets, pretty good chance it wil be exactly the same as what you have.
