I'm going to extend the capacity of my oil pan and weld in some baffles. I'm thinking of ordering this



and retrofitting it to my car. Any cheaper ideas? A few people use door hinges ect

So im assuming the idea is that the doors stay closed till oil level within the boxed area drops, then the resovoirs fill it, and it also prevents sloshing?

The doors let the oil flow into the box but not out.  That way when you're cornering or accelerating in any direction anything in the box stays in the box.

I'd use something a bit lighter like piano hinges. You'd want steel so you can weld them, and many small hinges are brass.

rsmith is right, they act as check valves. If the cover over the box fits very tightly around the oil pickup, it can prevent a good amount of sloshing. Is this for that POS mr2 motor you got?

Yeah it is, but its not a pos mr2 motor. Its a pos 1.8L out of a newer fwd corolla.

7afe

A-series motors I always had better luck with than the 1zz for play.

I think its because there is a lot more knowledge out there and the A-series seem to have decent blocks. I'd prefer a quality g-head or a 20v head on one.

But a low budget 7afe turbo build w/ 10 psi boost is nice. :yes:

So are you going to use the 4agze stock pistons for boost? Since they are already coated pistons and lower the compression.

I always wonder why 4age and B16a have the exact same bore and stroke combo?

If the both of these engines have the same bore spacings?

7afe with a cammed smallport 16v head.

I'm going to use belfab H beam rods with Aria pistons probably.

cool

Will there be a build thread?

[TTC]

Yup, only issue now is I can't fund it atm.

Pistons 5bills
rods 450

I figured that much, but apparantly the stock flywheel grenades at 300whp, so that + the weird clutch, tranny concoction ( supra tranny, fwd jdm corolla clutch = big money
