Hah. My old daily from circa 2010. Used to have a loud as f*ck drony exhaust. Good for max revving dorts when going through tunnels. Good luck with the project.
-
Yeah man. Miss those days. I sold it to some guy around Taranaki ways (Fielding?). He owns a lot of old Toyotas and stores them in a shed. Reckons he tidied it up lots and hooks up 3rd doing burnouts no sweat haha. I only got to drive it once at Hamptons with the bigger turbo and it went pretty well. Before the driveshaft poo poo'd itself and the fuel/brake lines. To be fair that car was a POS but I loved it so much.
-
Yeah IRS. I didn't realise yours was solid rear. Just the perch/buldge on the bottom arm was a larger diamater than the sleeve/seat which comes with the rear springs. They're made for an AE86 which must have a smaller diamater perch. I was afraid that it was going to slip out or not sit centre so just didn't use it. Maybe it'll work sweet on yours. Also I remember now. I actually tried GX71 rear springs first and they were also too soft for my liking. And correction, I ended up using rear springs from a Sierra wagon, not Cortina (it was a few years ago now!).

Hey man cool car! I'd love to own another Carina sometime in the future. Though it'd have to be pre-face lift as I am particuar . BC Red's (for AE86) went pretty low on my old Carina, though not sure what the availability is like these days. I never ran the rear seat/sleve because they didn't sit right on the rear lower arms. In the end I got rid of the rear BC red springs because they were too soft/saggy and put in some Mk5 Cortina ones and cut down to height. Worked a treat!

Pre-face lift, cool! Used to own a Carina and still love these cars today. Good luck with the build

Remember the good old days of motorway runs, 'illegals' and Piha touge missions in this. Awesome. -
The Carina has power steering right... except that when you want to turn the wheel from side to side (forced, not auto-returning) it pretty much braces up... is this just OS 80's fail tech? Anyone know of anything that I can do to improve/get better PS? FYI also running 25mm spacers up front, low down and directionals. Chur bay! Opps, if you don't know TA63 / 3TGTE
