AE25

both have their benefits.  i'd easily daily a torsen (and have a few for this reason).  they designed to maintain traction but both wheels need to be on the ground for it to work.  can still get it sideways for a bit of fun and sure beats an open diff.  If you somehow get stuck with one wheel in the air going offroad etc, apply the brakes and the load from applying brakes to the spinning wheel will transfer to the loaded wheel.  I read that in humvee literature heh.   Can't beat the 2way clutch lsd for drift and track. 

bumpy

some people will be coming from hamptons from a drift day it seems.

rather than write something twice..  have a read of this

i've gone the ae86 strut conversion route.

good to see hippo's old GTrally being fixed up!  such a rare spec too.  and that black interior is badass 

AA63 4age celica GT i think has the irs T series also.  If you get stuck finding rear end bits, maybe hit up callum WDE_BDY in gisborne, think he may be parting his ta61 celica out?  Or upgrade to the F series subframe assembly which means altezza lsd's can be fitted.  can source those from the 18rgeu and 3tgte powered A6 celica and tt142 corona GT-T also. 

could you not suss out registration using the number plate for details?

just surfed into this page from google.   3mths late haha.

did you end up selling it?

yeah cheaper to replace engine than rebuild it.

I see good working 3tgte advertised for $1000-1500ish.  not seen em sell for that though.  not often find GOOD condition ones anymore.

can't buy genuine anything for them these days.  not even distributor cap.  gaskets and generic parts maybe?

last engine i bought came from a frontal damaged tt142 and picked it up for $400 with w55 and loom.  bit of a score.  but had to replace a broken timing cover and later ran the bearings so rebuilt bottom end and repaired end of crank and flywheel location.  this weekend it seems to have cracked a ring land.  So need to rebuild or replace...

the skids are worth it

cheers for pics dave roman

nice turnout. what a scorcher of a day! and only one beaching on the speed bumps. I consider that a win

i bring bbq. byo meat. will leave it running from 12pm n you guys can drive it

Cheers chris. just saying there will be notice board up for anyone that didn't see the message.

Also

Facebooked it. http://www.facebook.com/events/269000313230680/

just gotta sort how to make it public.

cheers neil.

there'll be some signs up. basically can go to the albany campus, turn around and come back out and turn left, turn left onto Albany Highway, through a few intersections, then left onto Eastbourne Rd. You'll know you're at the right place if you go over speed bumps. (pretty decent ones too).

one week to go!

Watch for detour signs. We've had to shift to the other massey campus around the corner due to a market happening same day. But you'll be pleasantly surprised with the amount of parking space and trees for shade!

cruise details:

from Westgate outside BK or

from Greenlane outside McD's

10.15am meet and 10.45am depart

good to see your kp project in progress finally neil! nice write up

when i looked into this... found the later alts have a different shaft size than the K, R and T series engines so swapping pullies wasn't a bolt in.. but there's surely one somewhere that works.

a rattle gun would make short work of that alternator nut for next time too. (like go local garage).

you now have 5 weeks notice to book an annual leave! and then theres the extended lunch break trick...

So.....

Sunday 10th March

11am - 3pm

struts are all 90mm bolt spacing in the _A6# celica/carina so at least the strut will fit.

The ball joints are different between the 6cyl and 4cyl. So be warned, if it's made for the ma61 then the taper is probably bigger than the rwd corolla's or 4cyl ta63/aa63/ra63 etc. mx73 cressida knuckles have the larger taper too. they still have the same 14mm thread but the tapered seat varies. Best to confirm that with T3 if using them on aa63. Or better yet, get the ra64 version which should be correct. Also the M series struts have a fatter 21mm disk and the hub is different to accomodate the offset. stub axle is same between the struts I believe but the camber varies depending on the car it fitted to.

I'll offer drawing up basic stuff in solidworks as I use it everyday at work. especially if toyota related. can save as .dxf .dwg etc. but need to supply decent enough sketches or scans to work from.

I can also host files if requested. had my current website up since 2004.

must PM me!

Some pics of parts i've drawn for myself http://toycrazy.net/...y/parts/engine/

Garrett flange drawings can be found here. Click on the turbo and each one has pdf drawings of the flange sizes etc.

www.dropbox.com is a file sharing site we've started using at work. So simple and no bullshit.

hmm theres the 5k van cable bracket here which bolts to the rocker cover. not sure if it matches the length of the kp/ke cable but worth a try?

Im not sure which plug you're talking bout re the indicator plug? was that on the steering column or at the indicators?

you'll probably find the early type hazard switch you've got on the dash doesn't match the late loom. easy to swap the switch to match the loom. can identify them coz early switch has a smaller diameter pull knob than the late one.

Heater control panel has a different layout between early/late so would have to swap the whole thing including the levers and cables to get early type in there for matching woodgrains. better to swap face plates for originality i reckons.

oh doh haha i looked for a discuss thread but didn't find. prob not on the first 2 pages or summin silly. oh well.

oh hey that ke2 cable is the early version from my '71. the later SR coupe (twincarb) ones have a knob thingee on the carb end. i'd assume the later ke2 3k did too. might be an easy swap if you can find one.

Was the length wrong using the kp starlet cable and cable bracket attached to the carb mounting plate?

Also notice how the radio panel has a reddish and brighter tinge to the woodgrain than the rest. well yeah that's the difference between the early and late woodgrains. faded looking ones are the early type. prob with miles speedo.

if cant find rwd water outlet, can rig up the fwd ae82 one with a modified bypass pipe and replace radiator hose to suit. not as easy as getting the correct parts of course.

Wastegate likely missing the fitting on top to connect a vacuum hose to the intake pipe after turbo (or on turbo compressor housing itself). this opens the wastegate when max boost is reached.
