thats very similar to the spec i was building although was going to keep it on toyota management. that how ever is hard work as it has so many pointless valves and all sorts.

towing with an mr2 should be quite good. it has a short distance from the rear wheels to where the tow bar would be, then you have lots of weight over the back axle, there 2 things thats are normaly the failing points when towing resulting in loss of control. but as mentioned above some weight over ...

took me ages to find this one! even fensport hadn't got any when i got this one so was hoping it would be worth a little just for the short supply factor, obviously not any more maybe worth holding onto it if im going to loose out alot, and sell something else, hmm.

wow didnt realise they were that much! id be happy with a fair chunk less than that aswell so should be able to sell it all. just hope i can sell it quickly or i might aswell keep it.

slightly off topic but in therory if you fitted carbs could you still run the standard ecu for the ignition control? therefore no need for a stand alone ecu? or is it fuel injected throttle bodies?

i have an sc conversion including engine, loom and ecu from an ae101 corrola. this means its a small port, dis, map sensor and about 160bhp stock but how much are they worth? i ask as im stuck without pay for at least 2 months most likely 3 and have a fair bit of money tied up in this lot and its fo...

ive found kyb's either soft or hard. cant remember whic way around it is but the full set that fits the mk1a's are usualy quite hard then you get different rear shocks for the b model and the rears are dead soft and the ride and handling is a bit odd as a result of this. i quite like the hard dampin...

glad its a simple fix, you usualy know if its not connected aswell as most sensors only ewad from 0.2-4.8v's a max reading ie 5v means theres a problem.

im sure its a variable resistor i dont know of any efi systems that run a switch that is mounted as a rotary sensor.
maybe you just have the wrong wire from the orginal loom?
get a multimeter in the tps and check its actualy ok and work down the wiring from there.

id love an rx7 type r cant afford one though
what about yoko spec 2's there a very good tyre on the mk1, and seem pretty good in the wet also although opinion varys on that.

iirc larkspeed are good on these

the gasket has a glue that melts when the engine is hot and then seals itself to the head and block so no coatings are required. sometimes you can add to metal gaskets, but it can end up causing many problems and you will have to do the whole job again.

what size wheels are you on? if 15's then theres a million choices if on 14's then theres not many sporty tyres as the orginal sizing isn't biased that way.

im half watching top gear and did i just hear clarkson say the new lotus uses a camary v6? if so i think their copying the mk1 conversions now! fancy a v6 conversion again now as well so many ideas!

sounds like an air leak, if its an oil problem it would have probably gone bang by now.

could be an air leak in teh system causing pressure changes from the cold air entering. or overfueling etc they shouldn't do it with the small bore of the magnex exhaust.

some people may see you as the :evil: as that looks like one tidy mk1 to turn into a track car! how ever its the best place to start especialy when putting in as much effort as you are, make sure you give the 3sgte a good going over before you put it in as a tiny bit of neglect and pop! what are you...

only other thin si would add check the valve clearances before you take the cams out, then before it goes back togetheryou can just put the right shims in and job done, there a sod to change afterwards. also the fuel rail can be left of the fuel lines just swing it out the way tiwards the gearbox si...

take the manifold off it'll be easier in the long run. ie taking the head out and cleaning it up.
one thing you can do to save time is leave the drivers side engine mount in place you just have to slip the tin timing plate in with the head.

torque settings are on the rocker cover
but if not the right ones i believe its 29nm+90+90
