kpr Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 + a couple of reso's before said muffler, or it will sound horrible /top fail Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spencer Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 Yes those also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CorollaGT Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 If it still has the stock cat and you plan on keeping it then one reso plus a decent muffler should be fine. But if that's going in the scrap bin +1 to using two resos and a muffler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash Kelly barr Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 you reckon, very similar weight to a complete, dry manual V6 Commode motor with loom and bell. sub 200kg on a pallet .but back on topic, bored and stroked 2tg on sides for period doortsWeighs less, extra couple cams, taller port angles for less aggressive port angle, Toyota, more rev's, newer EFI and VVTI factory, RWD manual boxes are easy and cheap, flywheel from anouther car bolts on and matches OG clutchingSo no custom flywheel, clutch, adaptor plates 2GR FTW I looked harder: Fully Dressed With Fluids: 163Kg And it's not a commodore motor LY7 dry - 168kg 4age is 140kg haha 2GR everything. mates to a E series box so can fit anything FWD with mixed and matched FWD mounts/axels. If you re-mortgage your house... Lotus do a supercharged version (and a turbo soon according to a mate that works For lotus servicing NZ) and parts can be ordered straight off the shelf.. Witch bolt straight on to the Toyota models. Straight cut gear sets are available for the lotus' of witch some bolt into the Toyota boxes as their still asin variants 2GR FTW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beachlander Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 So when are you putting one in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AALAWS Posted June 5, 2016 Author Share Posted June 5, 2016 So when are you putting one in? Still stripping the paint of the shell and have rust to cut out etc.......it'll be a while. It's a long term project but want to keep things ticking over best I can by looking into all facets of the build. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhyscar Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 On / off topic question. What's a nice muffler combo for a black top in a road car? About to re make mine. Curently it drones quite badly with some coby things In it. 2.5inch all the way through, adrenaline R resonator in centre (approx 1.2m from end of merge) and a decent/standard muffler at the rear. Can't complain with these noises: https://youtu.be/RAQX87lkKAY?t=1m23s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhyscar Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 Also to add to ideal engine discussion. Have you considered a 2zz? 20kg lighter than a 4age, 9000rpm and will make a solid 130kw atw on a standard ecu.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
