RE: Corolla GT Coupe - Royalty Black
Changes to the front wings are made.... Wasn't a big deal and now after some new adjustments on my 86 coilovers the car is perfecto! I'm very pleased with the handling on the BCcoilovers. The car is fully locked for grip and it is dangerous to provoke it to go sideways (no LSD yet).
Now my plan is to overhaull the rear axle. BAsically sandblast everything, new bearing on the rear shafts, new retainers, LSD with new bearings, Weir spacer and a LSD shim kit to improve the %% lock! Will also buy new handbrake cables and paint everything new. The halfshafts will also be aligned, and the the propeller shaft will be calibrated and will get a new bearing already bought. THis will improve the WHP on my 86 for sure! This weekend i'll be placing a new a bigger 16row oil cooler to deal with all my high temps on the tracks. 16Row oil cooler from Moteki (great price thanks to isac) Yesterday, late night.... I got my shot at the dyno..... One of the best dynos in my area... With a great air flow (actually uses a unique airflow system in the Iberian Peninsula simulating the air drag at speed) and here i have.... My results..... I'm amazed..... Now with this 162,4HP i can't figure out what is causing my engine to smoke.... Maybe the valve retainers are indeed messed up..... Time to check what it is causing the smoke, i think that the piston bearings are not the cause of it given the fact i have this much HP. Late night cruise..... Cheers! |
