Taz_Rx Posted May 26, 2010 Report Share Posted May 26, 2010 Have a look in the stickey'd Peurto Rican thread in the general mechanical section. I'm sure you could find some pics of one in there. :happy: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

godlovesugly Posted May 26, 2010 Report Share Posted May 26, 2010 there is a forum just for the 3TC engine, I can't search for it from work but it does exist and there are some crazy tdrag cars on there. I'm sure ive seen an TE7x corolla on there that is tubbed. also youtube turbo 3tc and you'll find something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redae71 Posted May 26, 2010 Report Share Posted May 26, 2010 you don't need to mini-tub them, just ask mungi mods lol, i have seen a ke70 on you tube that has a blown v8 in it but I'm not sure if its tube chassis or just tubbed on the std body Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LXY-642 Posted June 19, 2010 Report Share Posted June 19, 2010 10" rim and only a 205 tyre? that scares me. i ran 265's on 8" rims on my old falcon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
love ke70 Posted June 19, 2010 Report Share Posted June 19, 2010 wpn, minimum tyre size for an 8" is 225, i think 10 is 265, but I'm not sure of that, but yes, a 205 on a 10 would be stretched, but not insane. rb20 rolla, can you get the car street legal if you minitub it? i havnt seen one, ive never looked though, but as was said, 3tcgarage is the place to go ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rb20 rolla Posted June 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2010 yes in NSW you can have mini tubs, you ARE NOT allowed to cut or mod the chassis rail in anyway but always ask your engineer how he want's it done as he is the one that will sign off on it at the end of the day.. from what i can work out looks like i will have to move the bottom trailing arm to the inside of the chassis rail and mount a set of coilovers. the other second idea is to just cut and mod the front of the wheel tub near the bottom trailing arm and leave the standard shocks and springs where they are and the bottom trailing arm where it is and get a bit more room but it's alot of work for such little gain.. i have got a price over the phone with a place and it's going to cost a few grand to get it working so i will just spend the money into making it go faster for now thanks guy's.. if anyone can still find a photo i would still like to have a look thanks..

rb20 rolla Posted June 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2010 the toyota3tc site is no more, members moved onto http://3tcgarage.com/ apparrently. this one guy said a te72 can run a 26.5 x 8 with the standard tub so if te72's are the same then that's a bigger slick then i want to run so no need to minitub for the slicks just the look's. it's a bit of money just to be different or is it ???
