FolkenStrategos's Build thread

ok..
wait wat?! just an intake? lol..that would be epic win.
no, my newer motor swap/parts/labor etc cost me like $3,200 :sad:

have pistons, valve job, new block, ecu reprogramed and other stuff..expensive for my budget @ the time but had no choice (blown stock motor-threw rod )

so what are the specifics? what compression ratio? how did you reprogram your ecu? wheres your dyno sheet?

brb
sorry for the thread jack Folken

this dyno is from 2 years ago.
i still doubt my car made 160+ lol. we did 'borrow' cams from a celica they had there @ the shop. maybe thats why??


2.5 piping exhaust,
removable apexi muffler (stupid cops. lol)
ported/polished header (same power as aftermarket)
drop in filter w/custom piping (thanx mike)
11:1 comp
forged rods,
titanium springs & retainers
new valves- they did something to head but forgot wat its called?
new block- ported for new pistons
new clutch-stage II & lighter flywheel,
the shop reprogramed the ecu. i didnt ask alot questions, didnt care at the time.
i just paid them for everything..wanted my car back before my bday /=

cant remember everything (didnt know alot about 1zz back then, sorry guys

wow...really? pics? vids?

The hp peaks at 7500 like a 2zz, with a really smooth curve going up.

its called dynoing in 2nd and not 4th... 140-145hp is reasonable for a built 1zz

lol
i still doubt that dyno was wrong but i wasnt there. working
on the street, feels like 140 honestly..damn you economy motor. lol

Honestly, I don't know where people get that from, I constantly rev the car past 7000 rpm, and easily too. I should do a video of it. Mine hits 9000 rpm with WOT and car in neutral.

lol

double LOL

^^What they said.

A video is worth a thousand words right? I got the valences and spoiler, .



...........Just like apu(indian guy from simpsons) would say...."Thank you come again", lol.

I might need a new feul pump, (the cause of the lean condition + car was trying to warm up) oh and I figured out why my AEM was giving me issues. It was the serial output wire.

Sweet. Enjoy. They will be missed.

imma jack those valences from that old lady in anaheim. lol

WOW that kit looks good on your car , Cant wait to see it when it is done

Folken, why would you rev your car like that COLD?? :sad:
nice tach btw. didnt notice wat that was till now. lol

I can here the studs crying.

, me too.

It will be fine, once or twice or thrice won't kill it........i think. That lean condition might be another safety feature programmed into the ecu, who knows.

you do know how many times and engine turns over each second right?

.......lol

Car update, some more progess

Some more progress.


The trunk lip, and rear valences.


This is how the car looks from the side right now


and the rear, that needs a paint job bad.


will continue to post them as it progresses.

dammm super jealous, i have to paint mine it looks so sick can't wait to finally throw mine on

WOW!!! That looks really clean from the side view. I really like how the trd side skirt and the side molding delete flows well together. Maybe I should do that to my car too.
What's the specs on the rims and tires?

your white corolla = sexy. I need a white version of my car STAT
