z-gen Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 how much power are you putting out? use a t50 up to about 200hp, otherwise use a w series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaMpylobacter Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 I wouldnt got to the effort of a T50 unless it's a bolt in job.. and try and find a steel case one if possible.. t50s arent that strong, I killed two with a standard 4AGE.. although I was a tad rough on them..... still, W55 pwns Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
z-gen Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 must have been a shite t50 to kill 2 of them with a standard 4age.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaMpylobacter Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 split case y0... stock ae86 fitment aren't as strong as steel case. they don't like quick changes (second one-sychros were a tad, umm, welded...) or clutch kick.... was told they were "bullet proof" stock 4age with extractors and standard exhaust.... go figure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Steve123 Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 cheers. The engine will be close to standard. Hopfully a late model one. Are there any bolt in options (to the engine)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Camel Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 ive got a mint conditon W55 for sale, with a S series bellhousing that will bolt straight onto your engine.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
z-gen Posted June 19, 2005 Share Posted June 19, 2005 an S series bellhousing wont bolt straight onto an A series engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
