Re: hks cams staggered 272 intake and 288 exhaust

My experience with the SC12 and HKS cams is limited to 264degree/7.9mm, which was a hoot to drive. I've istalled those cams (Yep, using degree wheel and such) in the late eighties and hanged the SC12 on the engine like in the early '00s. No issues whatsoever......... I guess what I wanted to say was...

Re: Runnung 3.9 or lower final drive with stock motor?

Good lookin out OST, shot an email to their parts department. I'm just curious as to why these are compatible with the our cars? Seems like such an akward cross of application. is the 6.7 10bolt combo just really universal and super common on other rear ends? I doubt all these guys are just running...

Re: Runnung 3.9 or lower final drive with stock motor?

I ran my "other" SR5 Corolla with its 4AC and stock 3.91 gear. No problem whatsoever and yes, with some tailwind it would cruise happily at 70mph. When I bought my USDM GT-S and swapped the 6.7 for a hilux diff and went from the stock 4.3 to a higher 3.9, the GT-S fell flat on its face. On...

The grey one with the red roll bar and lowered on Intrax springs/KYB shox. It was slated to get a turboed 3RZ with W59 to replace the aging supercharged bigport 4AGE but the Hilux owner backed down at the last moment. Si, mi ta di pariba.

I remember that ad. When Star Wars came to my island, most of us early teens and pre-teens could care less about the film. We were drawn by the Celica. I watched the film in the hopes to catch a scene in which the car could appear. ;) :D :D :D

Re: ToeKnee's 4AGE-T Build

Impressive and patient build. Yes, there are few people who can extract mad amounts of power ( :roll: c?) from an engine that can. I myself turboed my old stock unopened bluetop to the tune of 204whp in ~1998 using a slightly used t3/t4.

4AGZE has the "z" in it, denotes it's supercharged. No worries, you can turbo it. It will support 18psi as is, stock internals.
