Junior Posted June 2, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2004 Demuire : Sorry this reply has been a while, but the diff is running a 3.7 centre. justatoy : As for the amount of money that has been sunk into this car, I think the owner would rather keep that to himself, but lets just say that it probably enough to buy a new car.

Junior Posted September 17, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2004 Just a note for a few people here.. the corolla is now almost finished and is now registered.. Made a trip to Willowbank Raceway on the 11th.... Best run for a first timer was a 13.21@109mph... Plenty more to come from it too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junior Posted September 26, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 26, 2004 Had another visit to willowbank again on Saturday night... Got quite a few runs in and finally cracked into the 12's with a 12.83@111mph.. Just getting a few things sorted with the car, as you do with a new combination... This car hadn't even seen the road for 3 years until 3 weeks ago. Also had a change to 4.11 diff gears.. BTW them 8" rims look good, but we raced this week on some falken azenis on 15" alloys... still has traction problems too... should be good for at least a 12.5. Bar all that, it still stops and corners really well, and a tonne of fun to drive.. Will have to meet up with a few of youse so you can check it out sometime..

demuire Posted November 25, 2004 Report Share Posted November 25, 2004 Well, if you bothered to read the last few posts, you'd know that it is up and running. Also, as Rob said in the other post, punctuation is your friend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Jamie Posted December 21, 2004 Report Share Posted December 21, 2004 fark, 411s and 12s, i'm impressed! whats it like to drive with that turbo on it? is the engine stock besides the snail, fmic and exhaust? is there anything you would have done differently? name some things you've raced and proudly flogged the arse out of in your 12 second car :doublebird: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xany Posted January 6, 2005 Report Share Posted January 6, 2005 hey, junior..... i'm currently considering sorcing a R31 diff for my car.....is there any chance you could maybe hook me up with one thats already shortened.....if not, could you maybe point me in the direction i might find one for cheap?

1G-GTE KE70 Posted January 22, 2005 Report Share Posted January 22, 2005 Hey that car is incredible... DAMN YOU GUYS AND YOUR STUPID SHORT ENGINES THAT FIT PERFECTLY INTO YOUR ENGINE BAYS!!!!!!!!!! Xany, you know the diff i've got in mine (alfa romeo one) if you can find one of those then buy it. They are incredible tough. and I mean incredibaly. and they look so much cooler than other diffs :) But yeah I love that car man! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Jamie Posted January 22, 2005 Report Share Posted January 22, 2005 what are you on about? engine bays from ke30 to ke71 are the same length. actually, i think the 30/55 might even be a tad shorter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwarf Posted January 22, 2005 Report Share Posted January 22, 2005 The difficult part about Alfa diff is getting tailshaft bolts for them, as Datgirl can attestify to with the Classic Adelaide Escort. I had to send some down from BNE from the only guy who had them here....... You're right though, very strong..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
