do little cars need a lot of torque? reverse, just get out and push the car backwards.

Any thoughts on seat swaps?
simple monkey replied to eponodyne's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
the 80's corolla gts' had the bolster tightener also, i like they way those seats hold. sounds like a worth while swap, good luck. post pics when you're done. -
i vote motorcycle engine. lightweight, good power, sounds great.

88 gl sedan fwd exhaust mod?
simple monkey replied to dragonfire's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
do you have a clip of that exhaust on google video? if so, that car does sound amazing! i would suggest you get your exhaust done like that, sounds great. -

EA82T Intercooler Qs
simple monkey replied to [HTi]Johnson's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
calebz, what did you use for the pipe going from the intercooler outlet to the throttle body? -
something i've seen more and more lately, has been bike mufflers. not in outrageous sizes, usually 2.25 in and 2.5 out. seen them on a couple integras, one on an FC3S (second gen RX7), and quite a few on the 80's corollas. my brother picked one up for his car for free, bike shops usually give away the stock pipes when people upgrade exhaust. just a thought.

tire ?
simple monkey replied to Subaru in the Rainfroest's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
http://www.diamondracingwheels.com/WheelSeries.htm well priced wheels, crazy offset. dont know how many of you are into that kind of stuff. yup. -
te37 toyota corolla wagon with a K20A from the new honda civics with i-VTEC, potential for 300 NA horse, and sounds amazing. then get rid of those haggard leaf spring in the rear, weld in a GTS rear end, kaaz 2 way lsd. lower the car a little, but not too much, then get some ronal bears. done, kill people in the corners and on the straight aways. and since its a wagon, you can comfortably seat 5, ie the daughters of the people you just beat. yup. EDIT: 100th post, MOZLETOV!!!

what happened to ebay coilovers??
simple monkey replied to eddygordouk's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
yes, but i put the coilover sleeve on the top since there were some fitment issues on the bottom. -
what happened to ebay coilovers??
simple monkey replied to eddygordouk's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
i currently am running ground control coil-overs on my stock shocks. i've put about 5000 miles on them with no problems. i use the coilovers for a 02-03 wrx, but i have legacy sturts in the front since i did a five lug conversion. it sits really low, no finger gap in the front, and about 1 finger in the rear, and sometimes going over huge speed bumps or in bad road conditions, it might rub a little in the front. my suggestion is to try the ground controls. i got mine for $50 off of ebay. good luck soldier. -
i would suggest running a bpv if you have a cat somewhere in your exhaust. when the bov opens, the ecu tells the injectors to dump more fuel in, causing the engine to run rich for a second. unburnt fuel=carbon deposits on the cats, which will over time destory them. IIRC.

New stainless turbo header
simple monkey replied to BoostedBalls's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
+1 keep up the good work. -
so what are your plans for your EA82?
-
good find, now post pics.
-
i think we can trust wjm when he says it still sounds like a boxer. the sounds clips i've heard still sound like boxers, just at a higher pitch. also, who cares it the twe header looks complicated and fugly? function over form. WJM, thanks for the info on the borla headers, i was just looking for an alternative to the TWE header since i'm sitting at $300 for a header right now. i just wait a little longer then get the twe, sounds like a better deal. -Victor
-
EA82's are single port. i'm interested in your exhaust manifold jumblement. pics?
-
dibs on the first one.
-
has anyone else sent a request to borla for an EA82T header? wouldn't mind a borla header on the rx.

i found these links on nasioc.com http://www.hotkey.net.au/~shatteredfx/reaperscsystems.html http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=605625&page=1&pp=25&highlight=supercharged+legacy the prices on that first page look a little outrageous to me though.... hope those help.

on www.nasioc.com/ there is a guy with a supercharged legacy wagon named reddevil. he has a pretty good write up on his setup. good luck with the build, sounds interesting.
