im sorry but my AE92 takes the cake

Sorry to go off topic, but whatever, my Sister was considering an AE92 as her first car, which I am all for, I cant count the amount of ppl who praise the name of these corolla's.

The only thing that I wasn't overly thrilled about was the fact that it has a carby.... is it worth spending a bit more for the AE93 to get fuel injection??

Any advice appreciated :)

haha no i didnt mean it as a bad thing... well.. i dunno :)

i bought my AE92 off a female owner who had it involved in several minor crashes.. she had owned it for 5 years and NEVER serviced it... I paid $300 for it with rego, and i changed the oil.. which was like sludge, changed the plugs and various other things.

Ive owned it for over a year now and its never let me down apart from a front brake line splitting and causing me to hit a tree and unable to stop.

all in all ive spent 200 on it. and it is THE most reliable car. its got fantastic air con, heating, power steer, and its efi.

however it looks like the biggest heap of shit on the fact of earth :)

I thought the AE92's were all carby.. and the AE93 had the EFI ?

nah. the Diff between a AE92 and 93 is trim spec mainly.

theres the base model, carby with drum rears, then mid spec, which is 4afe efi with drum rears, and then ae92 seca which is 4age and 4 wheel disk

    • That looks good, but I think you're going to need much beefier side skirts now.
    • They are daft and there's a reason it never caught on. Steering feel? We don't need no stinking steering feel!
    • I gotta pull you up on this. It's driving me crazy. A shutter is something that closes, like over a window or in a cmera. The word you want is shudder. That LSD is clearly f**ked. Take it to a diff shop and get it disassembled and examined by an expert. YOu might have plates welded together or something equally crazy.
    • Define "starting to fail". Wy not just rebuild them?
    • Check the Nistune doco. There are a few assumptions being made here that might not be valid. I will list the things that occur to me: Base map. Base map for what? Base map for Z32? Then the cranking pulse width is probably wrong for an RB25. The extra 500cc of capacity might well be enough to prevent it from catching. Base map for RB25? I don't think you can load one of those into a Z32. You have to just make the settings correct for an RB25 in the Z32 base map. That is either K or the TIM to get the pulsewidth right. Loom. You bought a loom for an RB. And you plugged it into a Z32 ECU. Did you make sure that any iwre differences were swapped. From memory, there's at least a couple. And as per the others, I would suggest making sure that the fuel pressure is correct while cranking and that the injectors are actually flowing as expected. They really must come out and go on the bench, unless you do find that you have messed up as per above points. I would also suggest watching in Nistune to make sure that everything is reading correctly. That the correct binary flags are raised at the right time (like the crank signal), that there's no stupid values in K or TIM. That you have not got mismatched firmware for the ECU and/or a wrong image loaded.
