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 :)

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:

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.

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

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. :)

neat build make and 10 points for doign it yourself and individuality!

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
