anyone like a sleeper?(56k warn)

Hey all havent been on here in ages


But I'm back with a new car and its a bit of sleeper, (you can see a front mount however :grinno:)


Car: 1989 Toyota Corolla Seca
Engine: ae92 4AGZE (thats supercharged 1.6L 4cylinder off a levin front cut)
MODS:
- levin supercharged gearbox (its magic)
- levin dash
- ae82 bigport 4age cams
- two rb30et fuel pumps (thats off a vl turbo for u aussies)
- galant vr4 front mount intercooler with custom chrome piping
- k/n box air filter
- ApeXi AFC II
- NEVO oversized crank pulley set at ~ 13psi :evillol:
- full 2 1/2" system with cat, resonator, 4-2-1 headers by Genie (its hell quiet!, just whines like a kettle)
- lovell low springs and koni shocks
- 2002 16" levin rims
- bigger brakes from the front cut (pretty shithouse to be honest)

Havent run it down the quarter but estimating high 13s with slicks judging by what it goes on the street, estimating 185hp at the fly?

should dyno it soon

what can i say! the car is a blast to drive it munches a bit of fuel, but i cant whipe the smile off my face after driving it. It whines so nice man

will get more pics up when i have the time,

Even with slicks I don't think that 185HP at the flywheel will be enough to get you into the 13s unless you've done some weight reduction. However, I must say that is a VERY nice looking Corolla. You have a fine sleeper on your hands there. The wheels fit the car very well.

You should have it run on a dyno, see what you're putting at the wheels.

yeah it looks stinking awesome, that must be an aftermarket GVR4 intercooler, cuz i don't remember the stock one being quite that big

nice rolla

looks like a fun car and it definately looks like a sleeper. Nice color too.

what exactly do you mean by "supercharged gearbox" ?

I looked up some numbers and a guy with 134 to the wheels was running in the 16s. I bet you could hit in the low 15s to high 14s in that thing if you're putting down the power you're expecting.

That's probably one of the best sleepers I've seen though. Good job man :thumbsup:

supercharged gearbox means its the one off a supercharged levin, eg the gearbox engine brakes all come in the front cut.

Musclestang: my mate has an ae82 twin cam hatchback with a 4age blacktop 20valve it revs to 8000rpm, that car is running 15s with just a 1.6L, so i find high 15s for my car rather rediculous.

The car does run CONSISTENT mid to low 14s, you have to go in the car to appreciate this, it revs to 7700rpm, but im making boost all across the rev range. I have confidently pulled away from cars that claim to run 14s, doing the maths on paper doesnt always equate to how quick the car runs.

However I will get it dynoed(and run down the 1/4) soon enough to see the exact figures, and some engine bay shots hopefully tomoro

cheers

Wow, very nice looking sleeper you got there. Definantly get those numbers. We are all interested in how it performs.

Nice car.

I completely agree!

I have to disagree there. WHP-Weight-Gears should give you a pretty good estimate of a trap speed. Then it is pretty much just a matter of traction for the ET.

I would guess low 14s/high 13s depending on its weight and launch. How much does it weigh?

the car weighs around the 1000kg mark, give or take 50kg, and remember nearly twice the stock boost.

here is the engine bay!

and the interior! take note of the little switch near the steering wheel letting me turn the supercharger on and off for economy.

Man, that's fully sick ;-)

low 14's would be my geuss...running with the Quicker of stock sedans...not bad for an '89 (my birth year)...

Very nice :bigthumb:

Nice car, but I don't think you'll run 13's with it, nor would I consider it a sleeper. I consider a sleeper car/truck/etc.. something that runs in the 13's, but doesn't look like it.

Clean nonetheless.

not bad for an '89 (my birth year)...

my little sister was born in '89....youngin...:p

anyway! nice car!

:thumbsup:

had to break my neck to see the 1st pic, but it looks good

cheers for the kind words

future mods:
- mandrel bent exhuast
- dyno tune
- maybe a bigger supercharger off a 1gz?
but I can get it turboed with a gt30 and manifold for 2000AUS! helloo lag, but as for now im happy with the supercharger and a turbo would be a bit too much for the body me thinks.

nice rolla, the ae92 shouldn't weigh more than my 94' dx, 2300-ish lbs. and you should be able to get around 200+ hp with the 4agze, good luck :)

thats cool.

only thing is... chrome piping on a sleeper?

^When I line up next to someone at the lights or drag strip, there not going to stroll over and lift up my bonnet and be like "hmmmm chrome pipez, thats ghetto"

If i wanted to make it proper sleeper id get a new front bar to hide the cooler, id get the stock hub caps , remove the tint, put one of those hideous back windsheild visor things, and paint my doors and bonnet different colors. But then whats the point, i will look like a dickhead

gotta love the look dude. It's definitely a nice sleeper, although I would'nt mess with it if I met up with you on the road
