  1. I'm not gonna drive the car in the wet lol and try to stay away from car parks.
  2. ok well would it last long then the stock diff open?
  3. as its time to put some more hours into my 12A ke55 corolla i wanted to know what people think about welding the diff as a new diff is not on my money right now i wanted to know if it will hold the power of a stock 12a and can i rip a skid with out f$!king it. is it hard to do? also is it safe to cruise with. if it was your car and you didnt have the money for a bigger diff would you do it ? i had a mate weld his rx3 diff hardcore and it went sweet but i can't get in touch with him to ask him about it same with a gemie with a 308 motor with stock diff welded and it got punished all day but the diff went awesome cheers guys steve
  4. yea thats good i was just worried to go to all this work and then kick my self i love rotars
  5. yea i really need a box soon that was for a full new box from reliance rotary automotive who i trust very much there the best but if i could get one for 200 i would love that
  6. whats the fuel consumtion around town????????????????????????? and if its lacking a bit in the power wise maybe 2 of those turbos???????????????
  7. very nice looks sick but what about the 1jz
  8. oh and i don't have a camera
  9. I'm in canberra. the reason for no progress is because i want it done right so that means money. need a new gear box so thats 700 i don't have but in the next few weeks ill be swapping them over and the rad goes in aswell as over flow,oil catch can, hoses and a gilmer drive kit. oh and a weber. no dramas with the law its got good mounts and will have every thing done i.e brakes suspension. just hoping it will go well for a stocker with a web on it. other wise ill crack it open and port it.
  10. they could have put up with it one week end. i went but i didnt enter my car my rotary roll will be in it next year. i did some burn outs in my mates hilux but that was in the camp ground. the ke10 was funny i went round a coner and only saw it but i herd the ss camero with the procharge and was like wow but when i got the the nats found out its got the 3k motor.
  11. who won i herd there was no burn out comp on sunday becasue the wind was blowing the wrong way ?
  12. buy a can of carby cleaner and flashlube injector cleaner i did that all the time. and a clean fuel air filter. i don't think a 3k carb is worth it. rebuiling carbs is easy. and you have no flat spots
  13. only prob with taking the lead is if they realy want it they will run it on 3 cylinders and use the lead that your go to the spark plug for a col dizzy lead lol i don't know how much effort they would go to but yea
  14. take the rotar button out for the time being just don't lose it
  15. coolies
  16. just wanted to know if you could use selleys instant gasket for intake manafolds
  17. need to paint it all and neaten it all up but thats it so far had to cut the corolla xmember to fit the rota in
  18. you prob don't care but i got a pro to do my welding. i weighed up the cost of the welder and course and time and metal vs a pro and he one hands down. use 8mm steel for cross members very strong prob over kill for a stock 12a but a poor man pays twice
  19. oh yea and fly wheel $88 and clutch was $130 slave and master i think $140
  20. sorry grammer was really bad there
  21. lol its a ke55 no non turbo just for now. cost so far isnt to much but the time i spend thinking about it is heaps. ill prob go Ts diff like you said. I'm not chasing huge hp. the gear box cross member was the easyest (my welder said) just used the corolla one cut the middle out see were the bolts sat and welded the whole up and drilled to new wholes looks really good i just need to work out how to post pics and ill show you all cheers steve-o
  22. thought i should put some info up on my build. it wasnt easy to find pics and stuff so i thought this might help ive got heaps of pics to up load cost.... engine, auto box with cross members and every thing $800 manuel box $150 but may need a new one from rotary shop $700 custom engine mounts and cross member and the headers fab $600 this is all so far. fare bit of hours though cutting old mounts out ie ill put pics up soon any question ill try my best to answer
