1:1 diff ratio??? There's something screwy going on here.

 

And yes, the GT-Four will remain stock for the foreseeable future, until I give in to temptation and buy a boost controller and wind it up to 17psi. :y:

 

The KE55 is for lapsprints and Streetcar Shootout. Early on I would have liked to have seen it in IP, but it wouldn't be competitive unless I turbo it, and I don't want to. I'd rather see how quick I can get it without going turbo. 300hp should be possible while keeping it 1.6L.

 

After I've finished developing the KE55 and 4A-GZE, I'll probably look at getting into a proper race category in another vehicle. Possibly something 3S-GTE or 3S-GE powered. Like an AW11 or another Corolla.

OMG I was just browsing a few forums and came across this.

 

"Guyz iz it posibl to weld ma FWD diff in ma matez lancer. its running the standard motar but we will be puttin nos on it I need some1 to come over and weld the diff so it wont break when the nos cumz on"

 

HAHAHAHAHA

Get a caldina :P Could be used as a family wagon for the kiddies down the track eh :)

Fag. :dance:

 

I'd love a Caldina, but it'd have to be a manual. Not that I'm planning for kids, I just like Caldinas.

 

I think an AW11 with a 3S-GE would be schweet. Or an AE82/AE92 with 3S-GTE. :y:

I'd seen the inlet manifold before. Both the inlet and exhaust are nice. But only if you're prepared to pay $1,000 (Australian) for the exhaust before getting a turbo or any of the other gear you'd need. Then another $700-800 for the inlet. And please note the exhaust manifold is for a blacktop - there may not be any difference, but who knows?

I'll give you $500 for the MR2. PM me to arrange when I can pick it up. :y:

It's too f@$ked to bother with. Let the insurance company deal with it and take the money and run. Run all the way to me and buy my AE71. It doesn't use any oil (as far as I know, not that I've had it running) and it's got a 1.6L. :P

 

I had it running in 5 minutes and the engine is pretty good, starter is sus and or either something is lose in the bellhousing or the gearbox is totalled. Does not need much for it to be driveable in real terms.

Big bump for Adams AE71

You want an ae82 with a 20V Adam? Good starting point, tis a sedan so "unique" :y:

 

AE82/AE92 w/ 3sgte are cool, only in a straight line though lol

Not with what I'd do to it. I think it could be a VERY competitive IP car. Then again, anything with a properly modified 3S-GTE could dominate up here. The rotaries wouldn't stand a chance. :y:

get ur hand off it,

 

 

u can't beat the rotary's with a 4cycl

 

there was a commo with v8 supercar motor and it had trouble keeping up!!

 

12a extend port ftw might give the gt4 a run for its money

The rotaries don't actually make THAT much power up here. I've heard the figure of 180kW thrown around, but I'm not sure if that's at the wheels or the engine. If it's at the wheels, then a 3S-GTE will match it, as restricted 3S-GTE's make about 340hp at the engine, which is roughly 252kW at the engine, which is roughly 252hp at the wheels, which is roughly 185kW at the wheels.

 

As for your 12A, if you beat the GT-Four, I'll just pay $500 for a good electronic boost controller, wind her up to 17psi, and go from 178kW at the engine to about 210-220. Should see it doing mid-13's. :y:

Rotarys don't get hi kw figures i think my bros 12a had 70kw if that atw and did a 15 mine had a 110kw wen dynoed unsure where it was mesured but will find out when i drive it i guess.

 

ur saying u will have 220kw atw and do a mid 13 stewies rx7 has 206kw atw and did a 12 or low very 13

 

rotarys don't make big power figures

Nope. I'd have 220kW at the engine (approximately) with 17psi on the standard turbo. With 19psi through a Blitz K3-380V turbo (basically a Toyota CT20b with KKK internals), and using an Apexi PowerFC, my Celica was making 178kW at the wheels. So I figure with just a boost increase up to 17psi (from the current 11psi in first and second, and 13psi in the top three gears), I should go from 178kW at the engine to about 220kW, so roughly 140kW at the wheels (I figure it must be about 120kW at the wheels currently).

 

As the ST205 only has 11psi in first and second, and only three gears should be used on the 0-400m, I figure turning the boost up to 17psi in all gears is going to have a significant effect on the quater mile time. Apparently the ST205 is good for about a 14.3 from the factory, so a 6psi boost increase in the first two gears should see it drop rather significantly. While it makes 178kW max power standard, that is presumably in 3rd, 4th, and 5th. In first and second, I'm assuming that power would be more like 150-155kW.

LOL. Keep dreaming Stephen. That would make it near 600hp at the engine. Keep dreaming. The most I've heard of from an A-series engine is about 550hp, and that was EXTREMELY worked.

 

I'll stick to my 3S-GTE thanks. It could make 500hp for FAR less cost than it would take to get the same figure from a 4A-GTE/7A-GTE.

 

Rotors are cool, but I'm not planning on getting one yet. Maybe one day. It'd be really, really cool to build something mid-engined with a rotary engine. Preferably not turbo. Maybe a 26B...
