LittleRedSpirit Posted August 17, 2012 Author Report Posted August 17, 2012 Thanks mate, I've made it so there's an even 2mm between the vertical pieces and the top plate. I plan to line the lower side of the aluminium plate I make with rubber so that it cushions on the radiator and the little vertical pie shaped pieces. The pie shaped bits are just lightly screwed in place right now, but will be bolted in the actual car. It also uses the round post type bushes for the lower mounts. It has a plastic drain wing nut down at the lower edge that interferes with the chassis rail, but I have about 15mm to do something, so I plan to just fit a banjo bolt there and have a drain fitting further along.

davidward Posted September 20, 2012 Report Posted September 20, 2012 (edited) Whats up man... Nice Thread you have going. I was on google and typed 2azfe rwd and came across this. I have scion tc that has the 2azfe. I have been looking to convert it to RWD for a while now. Just havent got around to it because of the whole transmission to block part. I can't wait to see your car up and running. Not sure if you have this info but this may help you out when it comes to doing the wiring. http://www.scionlife...ead.php?t=73323. its the full wiring diagram. Have you got the Starter to spin the engine yet? Heres a couple of my tc. pushing 300hp to the wheels right now and building a 750whp engine on the side Picture of the engine bay before the new paint job Edited August 7, 2017 by LittleRedSpirit dead images 1 Quote

Have you got the Starter to spin the engine yet? Hello. I have had the motor turning over with the starter, if it turns out to spin too slow I have some other options too. The Y bellhousing puts it on the inlet side, but it doesnt share the starter bolt spacing with any other toyota. The closest I found was the ep82 casting. Your car looks off chops. Quote
LittleRedSpirit Posted September 26, 2012 Author Report Posted September 26, 2012 My coilovers are starting to take shape. I picked up some ra40 struts with vgc brakes on them from wacol wreckers over the weekend. I have also just ordered the hsd coilover kit from otomoto with 6kg spring. Then I rang repco and managed to get sw20 mr2 rear koni yellows for $248 the pair, which is $150 off the normal trade price. Funny thing is they were a set i ordered in 2008 that I sent back, and they just sat at the stor and gathered dust from then till I actually wanted them now. So all in all a productive day on this front. I also rang my fabricator and the diff will hopefully be done by the end of the week. I need wheels and an ecu now, and I can get this thing moving.

LittleRedSpirit Posted September 26, 2012 Author Report Posted September 26, 2012 They actually have 1x ma61 koni yellow damper there aswell. Just one though, it seems odd. Quote

snot35 Posted September 27, 2012 Report Posted September 27, 2012 It's certainly coming together well. I look forward to seeing how well it performs. I didn't realise the 2AZ was bought new, was that expensive? Quote
LittleRedSpirit Posted September 27, 2012 Author Report Posted September 27, 2012 It was on ebay and I got it for $510 plus $150 freight. Right place, right time. Quote
Jono.C Posted September 27, 2012 Report Posted September 27, 2012 Just had a read through, looks sweet! Forgive me if I'm wrong, but isn't ra40 gear in a corolla supposed to be a bit wack? Quote
19914afc Posted September 27, 2012 Report Posted September 27, 2012 Sounds like it will go quite well! Still a bit to put together though? Quote

LittleRedSpirit Posted September 27, 2012 Author Report Posted September 27, 2012 Ra 40 suspension is the same geometry as xt130. Suits corolla fine and has a decent brake and bolt on caliper bracket. It's the same big stub axle as xt gear. I ordered the coilover kit yesterday and its here already. Quote
