Questions on 1983 Corona

Postby Glancn » Thu Dec 22, 2005 1:28 pm

Hi all, have recently bought an 83 Corona (rwd, 3T) and have a few Q's about these cars :)

*What series/model diff do they have and what upgrade options are there i.e. AE85/86?
*What ratio does the diff run?
*What is the model number of the car i.e. KE70, AE...?

and just unrelated, how hard will it be to fit a set of front seats out of an AE82 FXGT?

Cheers :D

* most run the 6.7" T series diff, same as TE71/AE86. if it is 10 bolt then it should be .
* crappy usually 3.7,3.9,4.1
*should be a TT132/141 depending on body shape.

the ID tag is on the firewall above engine, if it an import, the diff code will be listed on it
I've been a bad bad boy. I should read the rules and behave before I get spanked by an admin

Thanks for that. Its a station wagon. Just thinking of improving the rear suspension sometime down the line as its using a leaf setup at the mo.
