out of interest, i put my 4.3 locked center in the ke25 today, it has the older ke1x type pinion so i had to change the tailshaft end again. i officially do...
welcome to the dark side. You may notice a bit of understeer on corner entry in the wet.... so take care there... Otherwise.... you must be noticing how much...
hi, The place you want to talk to is Steve's Spares in Queanbeyan, NSW. They're in excellent nick, too. He wants $400 for them. They look like a near-zero...
bah i only got 12x7 4/100 jellybeans :( but they cost me $80 and came with a bonus bush basher :D ... From: john slee To: oldcorollas@yahoogroups.com Sent:...
if anybody wants it I have a brand new rear bumper in Toyota packaging for one of these. I am in UK but it costs £25 to ship to USA, Europe or elsewhere in UK...
unpacked ALL of the boxes of stuff onto the floor, sorted them into 'interior', 'external lights', 'engine/drivetrain' and 'other', then packed them all up...
if you are a bit scared having a locker behind any standard k series then you will shit your pants once you get a bit of power maybe the locker is not for you!...
personally, i think th eonly time a locker is called for is when you spend a lot of time cornering hard... hard enough that the inside wheel lifts and you lose...
just went and cut sick in my industrial estate on the way home tonight, fuck oath this thing can get sideways now :D i think stock ke25 steering ratio is quick...
ok, so it can get sideways, but does it make the car more controllable... ie if you wanted to drive around corners fast, would you be cornering or full sikkk...
i have found in every car i have had a locker in that out of corners it feels infinitely more stable. prior to welding the diffs the inside rear would just...
I get more traction with locker. Around corners in wet and dry, at low and high speeds. With an open diff, the power ratchets between the two wheels as you're ...
... Probably 90% of us - any head that's had a valve grind - as most head shops (esp for std stuff) won't replace the valves as long as they have enough seat...
... Depends on how 'hard core' you are. (I guess the specifics of the cam, and general setup - and the diff ratio to some extent will all factor in too) FWIW -...
... Try getting a ke30 to go quicker than mid 14s with a k motor powering it and get back to me on that :) To be fair - keeping weight in the back helped with...
... The 'yet' part worries me :) ... the ke20 I had at 18-19 - used to be light enough in the rear that on slower corners it would act like that anyway. It'd...
... There you go - resorting to logic and the laws of physics. Party pooper :) I think in order for it to be an advantage - you'd realistically either be...
... Any chance the crownwheel and pinion teeth divide into each other? If it's not a hunting tooth set (and not all ratios are - not sure on the corollas if it...
i would agree with karl in that it makes the car more controllable coming out of corners, you know how your power is going to get applied which makes it...
You would cirtainly soil your undies driving a V8 Supercar then. They have a locked diff, and about 600hp I think. I would love one of those. Also note at...
The pinion wine is not a nature of locked diffs, its just your diff is worn or not set up right. Nothing to do with it being locked. Jonny just went and cut...
what do people get your corolla confused with? i have been complimented on my "rx2" before. i wish (as you could purchase many ke20s with the sale price of an...
With a locked diff, getting the car sideways can be a more controlled thing. With open diff if you wanted to go "sideways", or just initiate a bit of ...
I'd be interested in this as well... The option I'm currently chasing down is a T-series LSD from Japan, and then using a Celica TA22 diff in the KE35. It's...
I think most Toyota diffs are hunting. eg: 4.1:1 ratio is 41 teeth to 10 teeth. 4.3:1 ratio is 43 teeth to 10 teeth. Non hunting would be 40 to 10, or...
I already have a T series rear end in my KE55. Its from a RA23, correct length, just welded the leaf spring mounts on. If I want a LSD I will buy a TRD one...
Hi all, im a new member to this group, with the common interest of the old corollas :-) I am in new zealand & trying to find a 1969 ke10 Toyota Corolla. Am...
In a sense ... well, i hate to say it, but new cars are very nice.. not like mid 80's cars... ... insert - so you ... then) before the yeah, i was thinking of...
