HIGH ROLLER Posted January 14, 2011 Author Report Posted January 14, 2011 hahaha if you must know.... AU$264 shipped to my door. Got it off a shop on US Ebay, the real mckoy and even cheaper than I could buy it directly from Wilwood by about $50! sexy, innit? Quote
cuzzo Posted January 16, 2011 Report Posted January 16, 2011 how are you going to mount it? Just some bracketry? Quote
HIGH ROLLER Posted January 16, 2011 Author Report Posted January 16, 2011 Correct cuzzo, my best mate is going to fabricate a bracket, probably out of Mild steel. Also, a plate to be welded to the inside of the firewall, where the beacket will mount, to stop "flexing". He just finished his own Tilton setup in his rwd 323, although his bracket is Moly. Quote
cuzzo Posted January 16, 2011 Report Posted January 16, 2011 interesting.............................................................. didnt come with masters/slaves? Whats the average price on a master? Is it street rego able? Unboosted brakes huh? Quote
HIGH ROLLER Posted January 17, 2011 Author Report Posted January 17, 2011 I didn't order the masters yet, as not 100% on what brakes i'll be running. Will be engineered. No booster, but has twin masters for brakes...should pull up great, and save some weight in the process. Wilwood MC's go for $50-80 US, so no biggie. Quote
cuzzo Posted January 17, 2011 Report Posted January 17, 2011 The best part is a) street cred b) no messy masters/leaks c) so much more room can't wait till she finished man. It will be awesome to get them all out on the street / wsid Quote
HIGH ROLLER Posted January 17, 2011 Author Report Posted January 17, 2011 Thanks man, It's just so much neater with a pedal box and remote MC setup. Going to probably have the MC reservoirs mounted in the vents behind the bonnet, if they'll fit. I reckon! I can't wait to get this thing going. it will be a while tho, would like to have it running within this year but we'll see how it pans out. How's your car going cuzzo? Quote
HIGH ROLLER Posted January 17, 2011 Author Report Posted January 17, 2011 started measuring for surge tank last night, going to dummy it up out of cardboard tonight then drop off the dummy to my mate for fabricating. anyone know the legalities of having the battery mounted with the fuel system together in the wheel well? I will probably have the room in there to fit an Odyssee or similar battery... Quote
HIGH ROLLER Posted January 18, 2011 Author Report Posted January 18, 2011 Mark mount the surge tank under the car with no lines inside the boot. You will get nasty fuel smell. -Quoted from Toymods haha my work computer won't let me onto Toymods, so can only reply here. Teflon braids = no fuel smell :) Quote
cuzzo Posted January 18, 2011 Report Posted January 18, 2011 i hope so..... cause mine was nasty after a week closed up. Clothes smelt and stuff. Quote
HIGH ROLLER Posted January 18, 2011 Author Report Posted January 18, 2011 yep Teflon lined braids are the way to go for getting rid of fuel smell. I was going to run the teflon anyway, as I plan to switch to E85 later on. Cheers for the heads up tho. Quote
cuzzo Posted January 18, 2011 Report Posted January 18, 2011 But where are you going to put your shopping? Yeah I'm going one of the odyssey batteries too. Just so much neater and more realiable Quote
HIGH ROLLER Posted January 18, 2011 Author Report Posted January 18, 2011 hehe this corolla has seen the last of its "shopping with granny" days. yep odysee's are neat as. there's like a big war between odysee and optima owners...pick your side. haha Quote
