Jordan Posted October 16, 2007 Report Posted October 16, 2007 don't piss around with resistors, just buy and RB20AFM or Z32 AFM, they're easy as to wire up and since everyman and his dog can remap nissan computers you can get them properly tuned. 170RWkW's (230RWHP) is very achievable on the SR20 T28's (and on the early T25G's,) They appear to be good for ~185-190RWkW max with a good tune and correct fueling. If you haven't already I'd invest in a set of RB26/7MGTE/FC3S (440/440/500 or 550cc) injectors as your current injectors will be sarting to look a little lean. When it comes to fueling it's best to play it safe. Cheers Jordan Quote
sleepercorty Posted October 21, 2007 Author Report Posted October 21, 2007 yeh i will try and find a rb20 air flow meter, but the resistor cost me $2 and i get free dyno use so will be trying that first. It still has plenty of fuel so far but will be watching it closely with future mods, then i will upgrade the injectors when need be. The car is going to stay the same as it is until i get me other car sorted (i want to get it into the 11's on street tires) after the cortina runs 11's, the corolla will hopefully be following it and running similar times one day.

sleepercorty Posted October 25, 2007 Author Report Posted October 25, 2007 i know this has probably been covered a million times but can someone tell me what model sigma control arms i need to use with my xt130 struts to get correct camber? by the look of the bushes i need the 80 onwards model or any of the scorpion arms.

sleepercorty Posted March 24, 2008 Author Report Posted March 24, 2008 Ive bought a new daily driver so now don't have to rely on this car to be as reliable so have decided for some new mods. I purchased a t3 garret from a swap meet with a .48 rear housing have had this rebuilt with .6 front cover and a 50mm comp wheel am running a stainless manifold and 35mm wastegate. Fuel system will be microtech, 440cc bosch injectors, 910 bosch pump, peterburg lift pump, surge tank and sard fuel regulator. I have fitted a 450x300 intercooler, remote oil filter, oil cooler, tailshaft loop, 3inch dump pipe to cat still 2.5 inch after cat for now, plumb back 1jz bov and oil catch can is plumbed back into intake so legal reasons. Car will be getting painted in the next couple of weeks (staying white just needs a freshen up) then micro tech will be fitted and then will try get some dyno time for a tune. Will be limiting power to around 240-250rwhp as motor is still standard, as soon as its running will start rebuilding the spare motor i have with spool h beams rods and acl forged pistons. Heres some pics. Quote

sleepercorty Posted April 27, 2008 Author Report Posted April 27, 2008 car is running again decided to do a few more mods so has taken some more time, ended up making a 3 inch exhaust as i think the press bent 2.5 the car had was very restrictive. painting will start this weekend and hopefully be done in a few weeks ready for a tune. i also have a set of 205/50 15 m/t street radials awaiting my return to the drags. i also did the sigma control arm upgrade to correct the camber of the xt131 struts.

Jordan Posted April 28, 2008 Report Posted April 28, 2008 I can't believe you got the external wastegate on your ebay manifold, in a KE30!!! I had to remodle the strut tower in my TA22 to get the high mount set up to work. Looking very good Jordan Quote

Looking very good Jordan yeh i was happy that the manifold fitted as well it is close on the strut tower but my motor is mounted fairly high so think thats why it fits. Quote
HEKTIC Posted May 14, 2008 Report Posted May 14, 2008 just wondering which sigma arms you have? the uber (very) long ones, or the shorter ones? and how much camber you have? Quote
sleepercorty Posted May 15, 2008 Author Report Posted May 15, 2008 just wondering which sigma arms you have? the uber (very) long ones, or the shorter ones? and how much camber you have? i have the arms with press in ball joint and two piece tapered inner bush gives probably 2 degrees so plenty for a road car, the bolt in ball joint arms are way to long. you would be better off finding arms with press in ball joints and press in control arm bushes as i had to buy two sets of bushes because i needed the inner crush tube out of the press in control arm bushes and the two piece tapered bush for the arms i had. the tapered arms in the sigma had the crush tube on the bolt and the bolt wont fit the corolla. hope that makes sense Quote
sleepercorty Posted May 15, 2008 Author Report Posted May 15, 2008 i have just paid for my spot in the boostcruising drag day on 6 july just wondering if i can expect any other corollas there? Quote
sleepercorty Posted June 9, 2008 Author Report Posted June 9, 2008 getting there tune in the next week i hope Quote
Jono Posted June 9, 2008 Report Posted June 9, 2008 looks so nice and straight with the new paint. Quote
