I was going to say you can probably use a rear from a toyota truck. I have seen them hold up to some powerful engines. All the offroad mags I get say they are very strong pretty close to the ford 9 inch

 

yea i heard they were strong like the dana rear end's equal to a 60 or somethin like that........i know there's a rotary corolla hatch out there in japan i dont know where i saw the video wheather it was here or not but does anybody have pics of that one or know where i could find it?

 

Yeah i know the one you are talking about....its the toyota hatch with a single turbo 3rotor. I saw the vid of it.....all i can say is......

when i saw that thing take off..... It is WICKEDLY fast......i would love to drive it just to know what it feels like.

Try doing a search on google or kazaa for it.

 

yea they have a toyota rear end that can hold up. my friend uses one in his stripped old school yoda with a carbed 13b and he can do a small wheel stand.

 

I found the link for the vid.....i never get tired of seeing it.....

anything new with this post????



I am also installing a carbed 12Ain a 87 sr5..

I used a 79 tranny so the shifter would fit in the oem place and the engine could sit further back in the engine bay. But now the oild pan hits and i can not get the banjo bolt in for the rear housing oil line fitiing.



The sr5 that i am using has power steering and is in the way of the oil line.

I think that i will have to lower the front crossmember say 1 inch so the engine goes ferthur back in the tranny tunnle.



I hope you guys understand my lingo. I will have picks up soon.

Yeah, thats what my friend did. He lowered the front crossmember so that the oil pan won't touch. He also had a custom Ford 8.8 rear end put in with ladder bars. I'll try to get pics because the car has been parked for quite sometime.



BTW it's a stock TurboII motor in a SR5 body.

 

I'm pulling my motor next friday in my ae86, and starting to swap the 3 Gen 13BTT. I am going to try to run the stock rear end, but I fear it won't last very long. I want to keep the stocker rear end, because it is much lighter than a Celica Supra rear end. MA40 Celica Supra rear ends are bolt ins, with custom panhard rod. This rear will take 350 wheel. I'll make sure to post some pictures as the project continues...

 

well the engines in. right now im working on the wiring for the fuel injection and all that b/s. the engine sits pretty forward so the shifter will fit in the stock hole, the corolla has a 2 piece drive shaft that will bolt up, but i opted to get the 1 piece aluminum. i dont have a digital camera but i have a camera phone, so ill try to post pics after the holidays
