Re: 3tc turbo

Re: 3tc turbo
 

That blue 1980 corolla is sick! I love the wheels and the pipes :6

Re: 3tc turbo
 

I only got to play with it for a short time before the weather took a turn. Had it up to 20# and it ripped harder than the street tire wanted, plan on pushing 30# to it here soon. Only thing I am even realy worried about is that it is a 89mm bore. But we will see. I have a couple more nice blocks sitting around.

If all else fails I will stick the 2rz back in it, but I really like the simplicity of the 3tc.

Re: 3tc turbo
 

the first pic of your uncles set up is ------- SICK >:D are you gonna do the same set-up?

Re: 3tc turbo
 

wow more locals. you go to LVD alot?

Re: 3tc turbo
 

oo yea with those street tires i cood imagine thm gettin ripped up... yea the bore being 89mm mite bring sum probs.. i kno a guy over here in ct who had a 89mm turbo 3tc nd bro all 4 pistons went out the side of teh block lol.. it suc but thn he wnt .40 over wit sum eagle h beams nd wiseco pistons nd runs 9s.... if i was u i wood let the 2rz rest a lil bit mor nd hve sum fun till the 3tc gives up lol.. either way the starlet is sick bro


yea teh turbo setup in teh first car is wat im goin with.. except tht motor is pushin well over 500whp nd mines isnt goin to b pushin tht.. its goin to b a street car.. evrythin will b the same except for the turbo nd the amount of boost hes pushin... i cnt wait to get this prject rollin...

wheelies rule

Re: 3tc turbo
 

ya i got to lvd alot..almost evry week end i go wit a differnt crew.. wat car do u hve mayb we cood meet up one day at lvd??

Re: 3tc turbo
 

I'm just going to cross my fingers and hope it holds till I get another set of pistons and a motor started going together. This motor has eagles, wiseco's, big cam, a head from the racing store, and all the other little bits. Mike down in Florida is still running a 89mm bore, stock main caps, and no fill on the street. Last I talked to him he was a tad over 509 at the wheels :S 400 and I will be happy.

Re: 3tc turbo
 

oo well with all tht u shood b good.. juz pitch in dn hope for the best lol nd yea mikes car is doin really good... hey how much wood a 3tc turbo header cost to b made... i kno tht ur a beast at tht stuff lol.. lmk

Re: 3tc turbo
 

What year model car is your uncle's?? Is it a Corolla as well?? I'd like to learn a little about these cars and the 3tc...got any good links??

Re: 3tc turbo
 

The blue corolla looked familiar to me and then i remembered that exhaust was done at my shop! It's funny how i remember the jobs we do more than the cars. Hope to have the white corolla ready this spring.

Re: 3tc turbo
 

you cant type worth a damn but this car is pretty slick man. I need to pick me up a first gen celica or a 2000gt one of these days

Re: 3tc turbo

Re: 3tc turbo

Re: 3tc turbo
 

jk :P

*goes to look for corollas on craigslist*

Re: 3tc turbo
 

Good luck, for some reason unless you are in Cali, Florida, or the Chicago area you are mostly screwed on finding a decent old rwd toyota. I picked mine up in Kentucky.......from a guy that just moved there from Florida (Why the hell you would go form Florida to Kentucky I have no idea)

Re: 3tc turbo
 

This is my 80 corolla i have at the shop.I thought you were the owner of the blue corolla. :

Re: 3tc turbo
 

wino857... that looks really good bro.. have you gotten some et's on it yet? where is that car from.. i cooda sworn i saw it at lebanon valley.

Re: 3tc turbo
 

Yea,i took it up there but it ran like ----. I think i ran 1.7 60 ft but it started breaking up and finished with a 15.2 1/4
That microtec never worked right so we switched to a megasquirt.

Re: 3tc turbo
 

yea i was there that day.. my uncle and my dad had the 2 corollas... maroon one and green one.. do u got there often?

Re: 3tc turbo
 

Not as much as i would like.I went to Lebanon Valley 3 times and Epping once for the ford shootout last fall.
