4agte 16v head mods

[d1 mule]

open diff FTL of coarse a 4age will get loose with a open diff, as far as im aware ther are exactly the same chassis, E86 same as E85, E70 (with different shell, slightly dif suspension on Ke models etc),

[Mr Revhead]

yes exactly the same chassis
ae86 = 4a engine
ae85 = 3a engine

the difference is in the shocks and brakes

212 rwkw is a nice figure from a 1600. But the boost seems high for a 1600. What's the lag like?

Its the only way you'll get big power from a 1600, you havent got that much capacity to play with.

And yeah, have a look at an AE8x and KE70 next to each other sometime....the underside is identical. Obviously the 86 has stronger driveline stuff, but its all pretty much interchangable.

[flygt4]

IMO 220-230kw is about as high as you can go and retain a useful power band with the 1.6.
unless you're going to up the compression and get the works done all over and play with gear ratios etc

[~SlideWays~]

I dunno how you could run 212kws in your ae86 man.

I was comming home today in my recently 4ag converted 85, pissing down with rain, with my gf in the car, open diff, and the thing got wild on me at 70 kmh.

Turbo would kill me.

Also is there a massive difference in valve size between the smallport and bigport heads?

Nah wrong way around dude, the turbo is in my AE92 GTZ.

My AE86 has a late model 4agze running 10psi, bit different to a 4age but still easy to handle. I think your problem with the ae85 is probably a mixture of diff ratio, bad wet weather tyres and the open diff (and possibly still standard suspension?).

Chuck some good road tyres on and and it'll make a world of difference

darkwolf: Im not sure what you mean about the psi being a bit high for a 1600? Capacity shouldn't make a difference, just the fact that it has strong internals and a good tune, it'll probably last forever..maybe

Lag's fine, get the ign timing right and highish compression and lag's not a problem. Its very easy to keep on boost even if your not change gears quickly. Around manfield it'll stay on boost out of corners no prob, if you're in the right gear.

As an example my new setup is actually better to drive than the old bigport + T28bb, and a crap load more torque

the valves are the same between the small and big port.

Im running fairly good treads.

I think my car is well setup, and i have taken no short cuts to get it there.

I just couldnt imgaine how loose a turbo 86 would be.

Ive driven a fair few cars out on the open roads, turbo cefs, gt4's, turbo skylines (might as well have been another cef) etc and nothing feels as light as the trueno does.
It just floats across the ground as if the tarmac was water and the car was a jetski. Its a hell of a lot of fun.

Anyways enough of spamming this thread.

[QikStarlie]

lay off the gas pedal. or drive a kp starlet with some kellys on the back. then you'l think your trueno is great

[d1 mule]

haha yeah iv said it before and ill say it again KELLY 70s FTW!!!!!!!

[matt dunn]

yes exactly the same chassis
ae86 = 4a engine
ae85 = 3a engine

the difference is in the shocks and brakes

and the seats and the gearbox and the rear sway bar and the cable/hydraulic clutch and...........

there is quite a few differences.

none of that is Chassis tho, its added equipment. same chassis, different mechanical, interior, suspension, breaking components. hence them all being interchangeable

[Mr Revhead]

yeah i was meaning the actual car frame/chassis.
not the bits that make a 5 into a 6
