how much is nitrous? And does it fill after I use it?

How does turbo get you busted before nitrous?

i cant have nitrous in the street. I just want to fins an alternative way to turbo with swapping.

i have a 86 gt-s do you think mine was either taken out or they had swapped the engine with a 4age that had manual rack

Yes they did Sir.Both manual and power steering.

What year did they come in power steering and does anyone know how to install one or has installed? I feel like mine had and was taken off.

it would be to expensive to drop a 4agze. So much Shiii you have to do i.e. making clearance for the intercooler, the ecu and wires. etc etc. if the darn motor would just bolt on and i can close the lid and drive then hell i would. i just want to turbo a stock 16v but as some say it wont handle boost.

did these corollas come with power steering in the us?

well as much boost as a stock engine can handle.

i herd the internals arent good enough to be turbo.

you gonna do all the work yourself?

for the most part yes.

So I am looking to swap into a 20V Silvertop. I was wondering what things do I need to know prior to swapping it such as the fitting, electrical etc etc.

Also can this engine be turbo'd? Keep in mine this will be a street car

How hard is it to find parts for this engine also.

Thanks

yeah i was looking at the manual it was saying middle of the axel i just dont know where

Besides the frame rails what else are some good jacking spots

Considering I've seen maybe one GTS per year since I bought mine, I'd have no way to tell if one of them had a fc hatch. You say you are trying to prove a point. Prove a point? What point? That anyone with money can spend it as they please? I don't see any point being proved. And yes, hatch in a ju...

So 750$ for cf, plus you have to transfer in the latch and cylinder and glass. And a clean junkyard hatch would cost what? (And might not even need paint.) I'm guessing, not worth it unless you are building a track car and also planning to save weight by putting in a Lexan windshield, which is also...

Ronny said that a oem hatch will reinforce the car better. He hasnt said much but I am assuming since the stock hatch mouts to the car in 3 places (2 at the roof, 1 at the tail light panel). This would provide the car with a little bit of support from the horizontal direction (from rear quarter win...

Anything that runs laterally across the car might stiffen it slightly, but the hatch is only "fixed" by the latch and unless that is really snug, the hatch is still going to move a little on the rubber gasket and rubber bumpers, it isn't the same as a solid metal brace. Whether a cf hatch...

track car or cruiser. reinforcing it would be ideal. If it goes on track then its good to go and if its on the streets then hell its a corolla on the outside but a tank in the inside.

can't you reinforce the chassis by getting a chassis brace, anti sway bars, roll cage, pillar bars, front and rear strut bars, under carriage braces

i really appreciate everyones input. I put this thread out so I can get a feel for what I should do and acquire lots amd lots of research. As some of you know I am new to the toyota series and the corollas. I just need a sense of direction in what I can upgrade that makes this car drive better.

how does the oem hatch help reinforce the chasis?

How much is wrong with your hatch besides rivet holes, dents, and repaint?? Sounds like someone really trashed the car. And you forgot to mention, how much for all the work on the cf hatch? car isnt trashed its just need tlc. Its old. it has some dings and rust on it. nothing unusual that you see i...

You're talking about money. OK, so what is the cf hatch going to cost? Plus adding glass, plus painting, plus anything else, plus installing the latch & wiper. Does the maker say they've provided fittings for that, or have they omitted them since a track car wouldn't need them & the hatch w...

yeah definitly. but my hatch has a bunch of dents and fixes that I know it will cost a lot if I took it to an autobody.

By bushings do you mean the wheel bearings / hub bearings?

Im leaning towards it but its not going to be anymtime soon since imgot a list of stuff to do

Tora wrote:Um... a must for grocery runs and commutes? Track-only? Balling on a budget: Tokiko Blues on stock springs (don't cut them), a full bushing refresh, and maybe some strut braces.

For all of the above. Best suspension upgrade for daily driving, track, and drift thats best for the buck.

if you still have this in the next month i can take them off you.

those zenki bumpers for sale?

I need to know what suspension upgrades are a must for the corolla gt-s. Thanks.

But then again a old nasty paint missing a couple pieces from bumper sideways corolla looks better anyway lol

im not sure about racing it. I'm leaning more of a weekend driver / show case car
