u may b boxing yourself in restricted by that 4age-MAP harness & plug n play = frustration$$$$ I'd talk to an experienced megasquirter to get a fix on your options and costs luckily we have a cool guru in our starion club. Good quality, support and prices. U rarely get that Lotsa cars run his sy...

Excellent support & info on those BMs should definitely make ownership enjoyable https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WdTnvEf_jnA didn't think a stock GTS could ever run mid 18s. Something must be wrong with that tested sample. TVIS? Mid 16s the norm Still slow, but thats why club4ag exists. Faster i...

I totally get your logic and understand your viewpoint but this.... AE86 is a great car for modifying because the technology is basic. In the 1980's it was competing and winning in race and rally, but technology marches on and now it would be blown away by any of the current crop of "hot hatche...

hate to see your AE go.... after all that effort. Hope the new owner carrys on, & report here. love the style of those particular 2dr BMs.... the station wagon even more. They have some issues tho - youtube. BMWs in general I'd think u could build comparable turbo AE to your liking(sans tiptroni...

Boomslang popular with the miata crew. Standalone does not have to be expensive. That is a choice you make Our starion Megasquirter does those plug n play as well, for very reasonable money. Remote tunes too. I wouldn't lock myself into stock loom or that shitty distributor placement either (interfe...

I'd think road racing motor won't see anywhere near the hp, tq or stress.... so may take the whole nine, if only to survive
First 3 boosted 4AG 10,000 rpm screamers, posting on club4age way back, ALL split the bores with psi in the 30s
I'm guessing this 1000whp 7AG prob in excess of ?60psi

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MCsmQ-qBKgk probably filled cylinder block also. 1900cc. ~1100hp. Turbo wider than the cylinder head says 20 years of 4AG developement, with lots of broken motors. All specs top secret. Pays the bills he says. Still a market I guess milder interesting small trucks. 4a...

stock 7AGE crank, spinning 10+k, making over 1000 whp
I wonder what mods needed to keep the bottom end alive
Run 7 sec quarter mile on original datsun leaf spring rear. Crazy

seen quite a few 4ag powered Morris online. Great job on this one, AC and all: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cN83sEo-Y3I
why not a blue or red top ? What will u do with distributor / firewall ?
With daily driven auto trans, 7A torquey 16V would seem ideal vs screaming hi rpm peaky blacktop

a friend ran MAP electronics on his street car: bluetop with a T3 turbo @ 8psi He ran free supra 440cc injectors, tuned via a $150 used SAFC. Can't remeber if he used a 'turbo' MAP sensor tho Ran great. Fast! Even stranger, he chose automatic tranny. Added some type octane boost for 10-11psi, since ...

for AWD, a boosted 7AG (stock head/stock cam) will make more torque than you'd know what to do with
A plain old journal bearing T28, T3 or small t3/t4 will do

That's one of the problems with the 7AGE builds, no follow up on the builds Negative. Google 7AG, your head will spin. Tonnnnssss of proven combinations - from street to track Big valves, porting, Cams.... I've seen isolated cases where any of those actually performed worse than stock! Stick ONLY t...

you leave a LOT on the table by running a stock head

but that's the million dollar question. How much is a LOT ? Big valves, porting, cams, etc, only relevant at the crank/tires
No dyno overlays plotting the torque, for a stock head vs modified ? Must exist, with countless 7AG builds.

doubt any normally aspirated 'stroker A' build is gonna stay stock head stock cam add it all up and most will still compare it to other available oe 1.8 & 2.0 options For diehards, cost probably won't matter I wish toyota offered a simple compact 2.0L (3SG or Beams, no). A 'basic' 7AG seems capa...

4AG traffic on the whole has decreased drasticly, so no surprise there More than enough 7AG threads worldwide/all over the net..... covers any type build you'd want I'd imagine a 2.0L would be expensive, yet handicapped by a head with ports & valves sized and designed to feed a 1.6 Still can't h...

google "Microsquirt 20V" show alloott of squirted 20V from ~2008 to 2015
I'd sort thru those post and try make contact

cool ride. Goin back to stare at that tube some more

Dry sump systems are capable of achieving a negative crankcase pressure. If they added the restrictor in addition to this, that suggests oil flow to the head is excessive. factory oil pump & 8000rpm redline can't be compared to an elaborate dry sump & 9500+? rpm Totally different operating ...

very same topic discussed with nissan CA18 and RB 6yl motors, especially for track & drifting
Long story short - Inadequate crankcase breathing hindered oil drainback. Correct the hose routing, problem solved
No additional/elaborate drain back or oil restrictor mods were required

What are the chances of that pair of dcoe carbs tuned optimum for your 4AGE ? A costly time consuming pita experiment if not.... otherwise possibly a fuel drinking, noisy, poor performing, heap Bike carbs maybe a closer 'dial-in' ? Dunno I'm thinking if you're goin thru all the effort of ecu & l...

oh, and for 'mostly street', ask youreself how much time you spend @8-9000 rpm, and is it wise building around that For a far more practical user-friendly street torque curve, at a considerably lower cost.... I'd look to something like a stock-rod 7A version of oldeskewltoy white hatch 4A https://ww...

i can see why that head is still for sale. No surprise there there is no such thing as "do it right".... only what's 'right for you ' you admittedly know very little about an A-series, to commit so heavily to a money pit make sure a noisy little buzzbox scooting around the street is what y...

sooo cool to see those old school rides in motoion... especially the cortina
both fords sound like raspy 4cyl-ish.... which v8, small displacement ? The R32? after you sounds like a V8
The corolla looks and sounds good, doing it's thing

lookin' good. That 'expensive' exhaust relatively quiet for a supercharged ZE under throttle... doin' its job

Times improved in the wet ? I guess your next mod will be water spray jets in the wheelwells then

not recommending anything perse. Get more infomation, draw your own conclusions. A plan is most wise. the 4AG route u proposed, will cost a pretty penny Drawthru turbo 4AC mentioned has like 4 components(zero internals), and won't leave it by car lenghths.... bus lengths only to make an analogy Mod ...

toyota did a hella good job putting the motors together. I never disturb that unless some failure. Once u loosen rod bolts, hone cyliders, etc.... u degrade imo. high duration cams likely require buckets and valvesprings. All that stuff is expensive, so there goes 'cheap'. slapping on sidedraft carb...

cluttering the forum ? Dude, its a graveyard why the peaky horsepower build ? Lightweight noisy track car ? as far as potential: pulleyed stock GZE with bolt-ons have taken street AE86s as low as 13.7sec 1/4 mile ET That's hella quick for a supercharged puny 1.6L that actually has a 'broad' torque c...

I had an impreza STI 4 years and all the shifting drove me nuts. I'd think the 4.77 + small tire + gutless 20V would suck even harder ...but you're describing two totally different uses tho ...so ya, prolly best to just live with the compromise, seeing as its only some toss-around shitbox I could n...

turbo 4AGE $$ was adding up... then I realised Nissan did everything for me: CA18, and it "just fits" the AE without cutting or hammering Starter and oil filter under the intake, unlike stupid toyota 4AGE. Gearbox alot stonger + smoother shifting. Mod-friendly electronics. A clubmember str...

oh, a couple years back, I bought a L67 with a slipping reverse gear. No immediate plans, but couldn't pass up a '$200 deal'. I stripped out the motor/loom/ecu etc.. and tucked it away. Scrapped the hull A friend has a 2 door Chevy chevette he's undecided on. I told him, "ready when u are"...
