make me miss my '75 rolla sport coupe w/ 2tc 5-spd.
The cars had forge rods, cranks, and pistons back then.

Damn frame broke crappy steel back then.

I love the early 80's toyota corollas, My older bro had an 83 corolla wagon parts car long long ago. I would love to have that thing today :'(

Who told you this :6 But h-beams and forged pistons are cheap for them.


G54b's are a tank of a motor, just tank all the mitsu stuff off and you are good to go.

Toyota, Haynes, and Chilton repair manuels all say so.
When I replace the rod bearing in mine I noticed a thick forge line on the crank.

you mean casting flash

Re: Here is some pictures of the 80 corolla,garrett T4 A/R .71
 

Yeah I'm using info from some old SBC interchange and in the book it explains about how to find if you have a forge crank. But now that I work at a foundry and learning correct foundry terms. It be the flash on the crank that you look for.

Clean car and solid build. Old man I know has an 81 corolla fully restored. It's red and HOTT. But not turbo.

Re: Here is some pictures of the 80 corolla,garrett T4 A/R .71
 

Cranks are forged, rods maybe, but still to weak to handle anything decent, pistons are cast. I have a few sets of the stock rods and pistons in the floor that need to be broke down for the recycle guy.
