speedtech corolla dx... share infos please

Postby auch » Sat Oct 01, 2005 4:34 pm

hi does anyone know what speedtech had done to their corolla dx drag car? i know the engine is a 4agze but what sort of components combo , drivetrain choice and what type of suspension?

man, 10sec is damn quick for a 1600cc displacement no matter if its force induced. would this be the quickest 1600cc drag car ever in nz or some part of the world? is it still daily driven when it 1st hit the 10sec range?

thanks guys hoping to see some technical comments

Well, from about 2 years ago... at least i think thats how old this magazine is...

(zoom), its got... (ill just skip through and type up what i see :D)

20v head, 4agze bottom end, GT30 Turbo, Sard 720cc injectors...

Trd headgasket... had T50 gearbox, 45mm external... 1.5bar... 3" stainless exhaust... 600x300x76 fmic... 3.5L custom Plenum, MoTeC M48 ECU, MSD CD system, Evo coil packs, blew gearbox, got supra gearbox... (dosnt say which)... 4.1:1 lsd...

at the time its fastest was 11.44

also a little capt under a pic of engine bay:

"In standard trim, the 20vfeels a little flat, but force some boost through its lungs and its a different story. Mating the five-valve head to the supercharged bottom end is an easy bolt-up job, and thanks to a Motec, GT30 turbo and intelligent tuning, 294kw is easy and reliable. And if that wasnt wild enough, this 1.6L engine is being converted to alcohol before being wound up to 2bar in the hope of reaching 350Kw"

Zoom magazine, number 71 (also has the jz listings)

wow thanks for the effort...

do you think it was using 96octane pump gas when it made 294kw (at the wheels???)? at around 22lbs of boost, do you think its still capable of winding up for more positive pressure if the fuel were to be mated with nulon 7point octane booster?

do you think the 4agze bottom end had been worked or changed to forged internals? what do you think the final comp ratio is after bolting up the 5valve head?

the magazine always make it sound so simple but im sure its not that easy or else there would be at least 30odd similar hybrids out on the streets, right?

does state "keeping with the 8:1 compression ratio" (old 4agze i presume).

Dont know, but id say hed upgrade the pistons at least for 2 bar....

if the basically stock 4agze can take that much, either some guys on toyspeed dont have the balls, or it cant be done....

Why am I finding that hard to believe when in refernce to a 4AG series engine? :?

Are they talking at the engine or wheels?

There are quite a few round in the low 200's atw.

ya i know some people cant accept the fact that small displacement engines can produce that amount of power but what about torque? its torque that promotes great acceleration and power directly reflects top speed.

im an automotive engineer student and my teacher cant even accept the fact that supra 2jz engines can produce over 1300hp at the wheels... he said to make that kind of power it has to be a 15litre tractor engine... what a close minded person...

anyway so what do you guys think about the bottom end of the speedtech 4agze? what components and comp ratio do you guyz really think it has?

keep sharing guyz doing great

theres a supra in the states thats for sale for 60g usd, and does 1520 hp atw, on 59 psi boost, bloody sick car, sleeper as.

Bottom end of 4agze is awesome, speedtech is most likely between 7.5:1 and 8:1, compression ratio is a touchy area, as some people are running upwards of 18psi on 10.5:1 on stock silvertops, but then others are running 15psi on 7.5:1 custom forgies etc, its really how much your willing to try and how good your tune is, as for an ideal comp ratio, lower is generally better, but i doubt pootech will let ya know what it actually is, cant wait till theres a certain 7agte blowing speedtech out of the water :)

if you were to purchase an entirely new rotating assembly from a genuine toyota parts dealer, do you guys think the metallurgy equipped within the 4agze crankshaft, connecting rod and pistons would still be the same as how it was made before?

Rofl, freaking stupid automotive leacturers / teachers.

Dont worry, alot of them are like that, and if you have a few others, some might disagree with that guy, but youll never win an arguement over him :).


bloody old codgers some of them :D

Good ol brian at dunedin poly was trying to tell us his 1970 something holden could pull 200mph on an airport strip, with a 2speed hydroglide or some crap. so, how much nos was it running? none... a stock 2 litre engine he tells us >.>

I thought hydroglides only came out on v8's anyway?... and american cars only hahaha.

but anyway.... thats brian for ya.....

wouldnt it be lovely if only toyotas put out the huge numbers ;).

RB26 is right up there with the 2jz :).
