99 Posted December 10, 2005 Report Share Posted December 10, 2005 when was that one??  we'll find out when we get the echo up & running. i also so remember a wrx finishing 5th at a kcf. your getting there mel, just need more miles  4th!! not that I'm particular or anything. Plans for next year are to get major miles under the belt - first up Rally Tasmania (170 kms in 2 days), then Targa Tasmania (squillions of kms over 5 days). I believe it's the equivalent to a whole QRC in 2 events! then I'll tackle Rally Q. No dirt events for 6 months, I may die!!!!!!!!!!  anyhoo, I'm dead keen to see this echo in action, when is debut expected? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is run by the HRA every 2 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trendact Posted December 10, 2005 Report Share Posted December 10, 2005 I am also building a Corolla Rally car, it will be a 4K powered AE71. Â Looking forward to playing with it in the dirt soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRD ke70 Posted December 10, 2005 Report Share Posted December 10, 2005 we had a ke70 rally car with a 4k and it flew. it did have a TRD uprite in it but they still go with a nicely worked 4k lie over in them. Â Trendact, never mind what other people think, i know how hard you can get a 4k to go. it's a good plan as starting in a low powered car teachers you how to drive fast and not rely on HP. most people who coment on how slow a 4k is, know nothing anyhow. these are a strong little engine with some good mod's can produce some excellent figures. our old car (1300cc) produced 137 ATW in a 790kg car.

ancullen Posted December 10, 2005 Report Share Posted December 10, 2005 137hp ATW? That's quite a nice power figure. Out of curiousity, why do you use a KE70 instead of something like a KE30/35 coupe? Is it because there are more KE70/AE71 parts available, or because you already had a KE70, or is there some other reason? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Jamie Posted December 11, 2005 Report Share Posted December 11, 2005 holy crap, that's one munted corolla! good to see the cage did its job nicely  please re-shell it :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRD ke70 Posted December 11, 2005 Report Share Posted December 11, 2005 we used a KE70 1:because of the 5 bar link rear end, a leaf sprung rear just can't put the power on the road like a 5 bar. 2:there's shit loads of them out there 3:same floor pan as AE86, so parts change over is easy. 4: wheel base is almost ideal for a rally car. 5: TRD make heaps of parts for these models and AE86's. 6: parts are easy to come by and cheap. Â like the photo's above, that happened about 4 years ago. it was repaired in 12 days at a cost of $200. 3 bars were replaced in the cage, R/F guard,boot, L/R full quarter, but it's still got it's orginal roof.

dysolve Posted December 11, 2005 Report Share Posted December 11, 2005 I am going to start out in my little ke20 with an uprighted, twin carb 3k and extractors.. then once i get the hand of it might import a WRX from japan.. my mates import no complianced WRX for $8000, but he sold one to a guy in WA and he now rallies it.. but i would just kill my self if i started out with a WRX.. And because of this reason i will stick with my little ke20.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
