Popular Post R100 Posted June 19, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted June 19, 2014 Finally decided i need to start a thread on this. 1998 Toyota Hiace LWB with dual sliding doors. Plans are to build it into a dedicated skid car for doing burnouts and power skids. 2x Toyota 1JZ engines running through manualised auto transmissions. 2x ford 9" diffs 2.75 ratio joined together Thats the basics of it. Have dragged it out of the corner and about to start working on it. Previous discussion thread prior to starting this build //oldschool.co.nz/index.php?/topic/33776-twin-engined-burnout-car/ Feel free to make a new discussion thread. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R100 Posted June 19, 2014 Author Share Posted June 19, 2014 Sorry yeah you can discuss in this topic/thread I ended up buying 4 engines, good to have a couple spare not that they blow up easy. I do have 2 identical engines that came from a couple of Crestas i wrecked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingbrick Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 I do feel that the van pictured is way to good to fuck. It looks mint! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajg193 Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Will the double diff balance out the fact that the engines won't be in perfect sync? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R100 Posted June 19, 2014 Author Share Posted June 19, 2014 I do feel that the van pictured is way to good to fuck. It looks mint! It was a mint van. But im not going to wreck it, just make it do big skids. I purchased it over a year ago, flood damaged insurance write off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyingbrick Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 I think you should run full spools in both diffs so it doesn't huss the inside wheel and have one on the limiter and one not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise your exactly right. Ive lay away in bed many nights trying to nut this thing out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlownCorona Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 i think the fluid coupling in the gearbox will allow for any amount of slight out of sync the engines may have. just might need to add a couple trans oil coolers/probably a good idea anyway/probably already thought of Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
