Re: Aukword1's Beams Swapped AE86

So I fixed the coolant leak in the back of the engine and confirmed that the clutch engages and disengages as it should. I am running the AE86 master with the j160 slave and it works fine. the only problem is that there is a little bit of play before the clutch will engage. Just another issue I will...

Re: Aukword1's Beams Swapped AE86

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9VcmmfuP0rA Got the idle pretty decent. Left the throttles open at about 3% which seems to be what the engine wants. Still have a few things to sort out. Have a nice coolant leak in the back of the engine that will be fixed today. Also for those of you that noticed, t...

That supercharger whine is awesome. Such a great build man. Sucks to hear that about the NZ community, but it happens with everything that is fun. I think you nailed it by saying that it becomes a part of the entertainment industry.

Re: Aukword1's Beams Swapped AE86

So it's been a while since I updated. Basically I decided to go the ITB route and spent way too much money doing so. Bought SQ engineering ITB adapter plate for the 20v AE111 ITB's, SQ engineering 100mm velocity stacks, a generic chinese made vacuum block, a Link G4+ ECU with expansion loom, pipercr...

Re: Supercharging 4age....can I get away with?

Of course you can. I'd suggest running a water/methanol injection kit to keep the air cooled during boost and you should be just fine.

Re: Gonna start a build and see where it goes ===> TWINSCREW !!! :-p

Glad you are happy with the project thus far. It is looking great btw. I'd be interested to see what the dyno numbers are with a smaller SC pulley. Also, you can probably run a larger crank pulley to add even more boost like the 4agze guys do. Anyhow good luck with it all!

Re: CloudStrife's AE88

It's a folded sheet steel bracket and the holes will have been punched out. That's why you get a bit of a taper on th holes and the brackets can be less than perfect.

The JSP mount kit does come with two options, one in a forward mounting position and one that mounts the engine towards the rear more. I went with the rear mounting position. In the rear mounting position with the sunframe spacers you do not need to modify the oil pan or the sway bar at all. Current...

That is odd, I never came across that issue. Do you have any slack in the spring when you jack up the front end? You should just be able to screw the base when the spring sits up or down to adjust the height. There is a set screw that holds it in place but it seems like your issue might be the sprin...
