not a massive budget was kind of wanting something I didn't have to pay someone a lot to tune. But scince that kind of thing is not available I would be keen to pump maybe $1k into something that would be able to handle a mildly worked 4age. only thinking of doing proper cams and ITBs, so would it be better for me just to go for a standard black top ECU and ITBS, or ITBS and Megasquirt?

this is the car here.....

The honda Ecu you are using what model honda is it out of? It sounds out of my knowledge area to be able to sort something like that. I'm a mechanic but do not dive into too much on the electrical side of things as of yet.

Also it doesn't have an o2 sensor....im guessing its meant to have one....downfalls on not running one? will it run rich/lean?

Sweet I was wondering why I had never heard of any / found much on the net.

What is megasquirt? Is this a standalone ecu?

Best thoughts for an upgrade? Unsure if I have room for ITB's? id like to......

 Ill check that link...thanks

Was just wondering if anybody was onto any decent performance chips for 16V 4AGE....

Wanting some extra gains for my redtop without forking out for a complete ECU?

Its fairly standard, apparently had the cams ground but unsure. Runs a MAP sensor, that's about it

Thoughts and Information would be appreciated.

Heres a pic of the engine bay

Anybody missioning from Dunedin tomorrow to watch the street race tomorrow? Would b sweet for a oldschool convoy

here are some pics of a standard ke2# diff and the T series diff im going to be replacing it with

the diff is out of an early corona that had leaf spring rear end. measures about 1370 long compared with the 1310 of the ke2#

will be getting this shortened so I can get a better offset wheel inside the guards

here are some updated pics of engine bay and new intake pipe etc.

intake pipe seems to have increased power and makes a deep intake noise.....sounds real nice!

Yeah buddy. Everythings for sale at a price...

Yeah it's running 4x110 but wanting to change to 4x114 for greater wheel options. Having minimal luck finding any 4x110 at decent prices and availability

Unsure of the 13's ya thinking of? Can you post a pic as I'm keen as for some ideas. Just keen for something jap. I was thinking 14" by 7 at front and 7.5 rear with low offset. The 13s I had on it made the sump sit pretty low to the ground so may have to change engine mounts to run 13s

yep got it hahah, ill suss it out now

sorry how do I delete it?

engine bay is now a lot tidier with, long custom alloy intake pipe with new filter, timing covers fitted, Gilmore drive fitted and general clean up. pics to be added soon.

 T- series diff is about to be shortened to fit rear end and handle the grunt better, also changing the stud pattern to 4x114mm.

KE30 backing plates, hubs/rotors and callipers will be bolted in upfront to change stud pattern and also a small upgrade from 200mm rotors to 215mm - don't think ill notice the difference. but the T-series rear drums are pretty big. hope this doesn't get the rear pulling up to quick and locking up. unsure whether ill have to change master cylinder yet.

Wheels are up for sale and hoping to get some 14" genuine jap wheels and less offset to give the car a lower look and some dish

Still have all original motor 3KB, gearbox, 12" steel rims with hubcaps etc

Will have more info with upgrades etc along the way

That is good info thanks for that. Just thinking a small upgrade is all I need as I'm going to keep it n/a and don't intend on track use etc. just got a t series diff that I'm going to get shortened to fit and use the standard rear drums. Therefore rear will e 4x114.3 so probably try and use ke70 brake rotors n calipers. Are KP rotors and calipers and upgrade or much of an upgrade I mean? Or they the same as KE3#?

Just looking for some info from anyone that has done these upgrades for any corolla ke2# or similar.

Looking for upgrades that will go along with my 4age repower.

hopefully parts that will be easy to frabricate to fit if not be able to bolt up.

thanks any info will be greatly appreciated.

I'd be keen, it would be good to all catchup and organise more local stuff as dunners car scene is mostly quiet.

Minimal turnout but was mint as dunners sunshine and mean road/scenery to motor. Few more cars next time be epic day
