bump.
come on people i need to no this information. i can't find it anywhere
-
bump....cmon you corolla brains out there. someone must have an idea about this stuff cause im at a complete loss :P
-
hey people...
a few days ago someone (sorry forget who it was) mentioned that if i wanted to upgrade my brakes i should go for 'superstruts' from the 20v. i rang around a few places and the best i could do was to get the rotors...no calipars
so what im askin is, that if i fitted just the rotors, and upgraded to something like bendix ultimate pads would this be worth while ?
and also would the stock calipars i have now be able to fit with the new, asumeing larger, rotors ?
any comments/input appreciated. i really wanna sort the front end out.
cheers

the 195/55-16 is a rare size to find only the bridgestone turanza and a few others. for more choices you will need to change the size to 205/50-16. for something from taiwan look at $100 per 16" tyre.
whats wrong with changeing the tyre size to make it cheaper ? seems like the more reasonable approach to payin 200 a corner
-
so if i paid 500 for a unit who would i take it to in order to get it installed ? im not that confident in doing a great job like map81 did in the link.
with tune n install with second hand unit are u looking at about 1000 bux for 8 to 10 kw gain in power ? seems rather pricey
-
emanage ?...
what 'chip' would u recomend to fit in roder to obtain the most out my 'budget' engine ? :P
And what sorta cost for it ?
cheers
-
what are the 'supporting mods' that your speeking rollamods of in order to get the 10 kw gain ?
very interested in this...also is the price anyting near that of the unichip ?

hey people

go and listen to as many different combo's as you can. at the end of the day u will b the one that has to put up with the sound so you might as well be the one to go and chose it. everyone has different tastes and ideas and thats ok but dont base your decision around what others have to say...even if a lot of it is good :D
i have a clarion 12 and although it is a cheapy it does the job and hasnt done anything wrong by me.
alot of the sound has to do with the constrction of the box
ported = SPL
sealed = SQ
(usually)
just go hav a listen...im liking the RF subs at the moment... and JL for bang for ya buck especially the W0 series.
drive it with a mono block though for added fun :P

>turbo - $200 for second hand WRX turbo
>injectors - $150-200 for a set of secondhand 4agze injectors
>intercooler - $150-200 for a secondhand cooler of some description
>motec ecu upgrage - Dont need to go with a top of the line ECU. Greddy Emanage with MAP sensor, ignition and injector looms will do fine.
>new larger exhaust - $600-800 for 2.5" mandrel exhaust from turbo back including new highflow cat ($1000-1500 if the worshop feels like ripping you off.)
>upgraded clutch - $250 for HD Daikin kit, $200-300 labour to fit
>ae101 brakes upgrade - Set of superstrut fronts usually go for between $200-700 depending on what you get... $200 is secondhand calipers, pads and discs, $700 is new discs and pads, secondhand calipers.
Then you have:
-cooler piping silicon joins, clamps etc - $450 - 600

-walbro fuelpump $170 (optional)
-Emanage setup $600-700 second hand incl support tool, ignition and injector looms and map sensor

wow i really appreciate that break down of the parts n prices coz in all seriousness i didnt know jst exactly would b involved.
now i hav sumthin to aim at...
first things first tho i need to sorta out the suspension, brakes n clutch
from there i needto get new mags....these 15's r jst sh*t and were on the car when i bought it....
cheers rollamods :D
-
alright this is startin to get quite expensive now :P
ok so lets see we have...
>turbo
>injectors
>intercooler
>motec ecu upgrage
for starters....then....
>new larger exhaust
>upgraded clutch
>ae101 brakes upgrade
= how much ???
but anyway i hav to seriously sort the clutch n suspension n brakes first as they r gggaaaawwwwnnnn
when i get it all 2gether itll b worht the moeny im sure
-
i havnt had the car dynoed but according to redbook the engine makes 85kw at 5600rpm...that 102kw figure might b from the nxt series up ?
so it seems i would hav to run sumthin like 6-7 psi to achieve the 130 mark
would this mean a rebuild of the internals of the engine ie pistons etc ?
just tryin to weigh up all the costs involved b4 makin a decision
-
thnx ppl this info is really appreciated. i know the screaminperformance workshop but since southern m/w is only like 10 mins from ny place it makes it quite a good option.
so with the recomended small turbo conversion the use of the LSD and upgraded clutch n brakes would this see a pull of maybe 130kw with the stock engine ? and possible 14 sec quater ? jst wondering...
thnx agn ppl....oh yeah and i would hav to get a new ecu wouldnt i with the turbo conversion i wouldnt b able to get the original remapped ? would this also b the case with the AE101 4agze swap ?
cheers
-
sorry mate didnt exactly know how u run ur forums here...
yeah anyone here with a clue bout upgrade with brakes/calipars ?
or what sorta increase with the unichip can b expected ?
-
maybe my figures a lil bit exagerated but u get what i measn dont ya.
yeah the supercharger is a much better daily driver option as far as i know
but this ECU thing (like a unichip) has anyone got a decent power increase form them? and what sorta price am i looking at ?
ill close the topic then n start another as we r startin to wander a bit off the topic :D
-
what sort of pwr increase would i b lookin at from gettin a remapped ecu ? would it be significant and as far as 'bang for ya buck' a good investment ?
and if anyone of the illawarra ppl could giv me a hand and point me in the right direction as far as ppl to c bout gettin this done, would b vry much appreciated
yeah ive considered the supercharger conversion lately....instead or turbo...coz it isnt done as much...and as i read and understand the power delivery is a lot lower in the rev range. where as turbo often kicks in at much higher say 5000rpm +
-
i already hav the cat-back xhaust fitted and a pod filter. when i get round to it i will make some kinda better flowing CAI for it also and possible heat shield for the POD.
as far as bolt on power mods...i dunno what else to do other then a full supercharger/turbo conversion. i want to increase power but not to the extent to havin to replace the exhaust...which is only 1500km old.
remappin the comp or gettin a new one...not too sure bout that. anyone else that can suggest sumthin plz do otherwise i think i might fit the LSD and a new clutch from Dapto c&B as 'zeerolla' did.
thnx ppl
-
woah woah woah im not a lousy driver....i no ur not takina shot at me its ok
im jst simply doin what most ppl do and that is 'improve' their cars i was jst thinkin that i already hav to replace the clutch which means pullin it all apart so while its their i might aswel do sumthin else if its warrented.
as suggested the LSD...i dunno really what it will do....i would like to improve the 5th gear ratio...revs way to high....altho the LSd might not fix it if it improves other things then i might consider puting that in.
also anyone know of calipars that r an upgrade from the ones i got now but r a bolt on ?...maybe newer rolla ones ?
-
i was thinkin of a stronger box coz ppl say i drive pretty rough...i dont think i do tho...apart from that i was/am doin 800 km a week in it.
its not the AE 10... coz mine doesnt come with electric windows as standard.
the ratio's are ok apart from 5th...the car revs at 3 grand when im doin 100....is that normal....
how easy is it to source one of those LSD's and what improvements am i likely to see ?
im only a newb to this and havnt owned my car all that long...still figuring it all out
thnx

hey guys i was askin zeerolla bout this and he said to post it up.
im lookin at gettin a new clutch n possible g/box for my 1.8 twin caM ae96.
my question was regarding the g/box n i was thinkin bout gettin sumthin a lil stronger then the stocko one...is there another 'box out there that is a simple bolt on that offers a lil more strenth then the stocko ?
thnx in advance
also while im at it how bout calipars too? anything worth upgrading too ? even ones from a newer model rolla ?
what setup?

hey guys and girls. been a long time since a post work related of course but now im in the position to do something with the rolla finally...
want it lowered (yay)
predicting ill go with 17" rims for minimal complications with fitting
still i need guidance with some sort of suspension set up . nothing crazy, NO track use just lowered 2.5" maybe 3. what u guys suggest to use? kings?
also will shocks need replacing? budget its quite restricted and dont think will stretch to coilovers,
all suggestions welcome
oh yeah any places to get this done at in victoria, live on the mornington peninsula..
cheers in advance
AE96 - NOT a sportivo hehehe
