November 12, 201114 yr comment_565788 Hi guys, Just had to share some pics of my wife's Corolla build, I had some "parts" laying around and thought they might fit on the ol 4AC :) Edited November 12, 201114 yr by Lycothrax Report
November 12, 201114 yr comment_565794 Hi Dave, first of all welcome to the club! :) Now that is something different, this would go as well as it looks. So clean keep the updates coming :y: Report
November 12, 201114 yr Author comment_565801 Yeah was a fun little build up.. a bit on the ghetto side of things but we spent a lot of time on the engine rebuild to cope with the blower. Thought running it off an old stromberg CD-32 carby was a cheap alternative to EFI with some nice results. As far as HP goes it dyno'd at 151 HP / 261Nm of Torque which is why the standard diff spat some teeth out through the diff hat :P We ended up using a diff from a 2.6 liter sigma and all is well.

November 12, 201114 yr comment_565835 Certainly different to see a S/C 4A. What a great little gadget. Great photo's too, but feel free to give us more details. Like, how to turn that set up clockwise, and mount power steer and A/C. :laff: Good work and welcome to RC Report
November 12, 201114 yr Author comment_565842 So... here is the thing, on the up side it goes really good but on the down side there's no A/C or power steer which is not too much of a problem cause its light. We ended up using the engine bracket that was for the A/C or power steer to hold the alternator ... forget which one now :P For the most part it was a straight forward build up with very little in the way of problems but i will try to find some more of the pics that show some of the finer details. :) Edited November 12, 201114 yr by Lycothrax Report

November 22, 201114 yr comment_567431 I'm sure I have driven past this car down on the Gold Coast a few weeks back, I thought it was a TG gemini at first, but noticed a few oddities, Looks good mate Report
November 23, 201114 yr comment_567620 Interested to what bracket you used , Part number maybe? :happy: Report
November 23, 201114 yr comment_567631 That's a home made bracket for sure, albeit a nicely made one. Report
