Dang how'd you get all that power from those carbs? Huge cams and compression....

It´s not a complex setup:
- 45mm dual Webers
- Wiseco high compression pistons
- HKS 272 cams

Stock valvetrain, stock bigport head, stock crankshaft and rods, etc. I put up a thread about the engine a while ago.

I must've missed it. I have 40 Mikuni's, really wished I snagged some high comp pistons when I built my engine... Yours runs great!

car sounds great!!

i more interested in your suspension and tire setup. it seems your fighting way too much for traction, and from the looks of the video, either your scared/not quite comfy with the car yet, or your suspension/tires are not quite in tune.

good video though, looks strong, but i personally know corollas can attack corners harder than that. im in no way critisizing, please dont take it that way. ;)

It´s on TRD springs and stock shocks. Not a good combo! Moving to a better setup soon... no offense taken!

I wanted the Greddy coilover setup but apparently it is discontinued.
Not many options left but korea/taiwan coilovers (KSports, D2, etc).

get anyone of those, or bc's. swap the springs out for some more well known units, and have it corner balanced. i know everyone bags on the taiwan coil overs, and how they blow, or whatever. but ie had a set of d2's on my ae100 track car, and a set of bc's on my ae86 slider, both corner balanced, and never had an issue. i think its the people that super slam their cars, not really aimed at performance, that have the bad luck with blowing them. i dont really have any complaints from mine.

Yes, that´s the plan, taiwan special + custom spring rates.
Right now, ANYTHING will be an improvement over the current setup lol.
