Corolla Levin Repair, Paint and Tune - WITH VIDEO

I thought it was 202 - it looks great! I'll be going with the same color

Hi! I have some Feedback

At the moment, the car is rollin' and pretty fine, but I have to pull out some more horse from under the bonnet. I need lots of tuning time.

I need to remove the TVIS and maybe to feed the 4AG with some more gas (not sure if he needs it). I have a TRD 0,5mm metal head gasket waiting and when I do it, I'll be having some work to the head (3 angle valve job and some porting).

The cams aren't tuned yet, and the engine is pulling very nicely above 5500-6000 rpm. I just don't know until what engine speed. I need to check it out to know if I can retard the cam timing to lower the power band. If I can't, then I'll remove the intake 272º and throw in another 264º. Or maybe a 264/256 setup.

HKS announces maximum power at 8800 rpm with the 272º and 8300 with the 264º. I don't know how about the 272/264 combo though.

The engine is idling pretty fine above 1100-1200 rpm but you can hear perfectly that something isn't stock with it

Well, that it for now!

Best regards

man nice, i was not here in your projectthread for long time.
you use standart ecu for those cams and it works good?
and this manifold looks exactly as OBX unit, have you link and price for this?

thanks and good luck with modding, hard work is done fun is starting

[Spitfire]

OMG!!! I have to register because of this project!! Its gorgeous!!
best of luck with further modifying

[apardal]

Yes, I have stock ecu and it runs fine, although the maximum power that it can produce is above the rev limit. Don't really know where though. That's what I'm trying to find out.
The headers are Tsudo, and yes they're exactly like the OBX ones. They are for sale at ebay for 155USD. Shipping was 85USD.

Best regards

nice apardal.
I was thinking of buying tsudo headers.
I found TRD headers for 290$ + 150 $ shipping and know I'm thinking of TRD

anyway very niiiice

Exhaust news.

Tsudo Header, Apexi WS Universal muffler and "muffler shop special pipe" installed.

The underdiff did not work so I went overdiff.









Right now I'm waiting for the LSD from JonT to arrive and I'll also uninstall the engine head to shave it 1mm to raise my compression a little, so that i can the most out of my cams.

Best regards
