AE82 vs all the AE86's - Corolla Battle!

[@shamil808]

Literally, the little FX that could. Love how the gaps just open up every time the 20V has a chance to stretch its legs.

[@gergoantal1066]

Love these cars, I will get one besides my Honda Civic one day.

[@bryan10444]

Oil cooler with a temp gauge with keep your bearings out of trouble. All 4AGEs usually spin the last crank bearing closest to the transmission due to the way the oil circulates in these engines. That oil gets really hot but you only have to worry about it when pushing it on track days

[@mikemikeyee]

Blew 2 motors this way. Oil flow sucks in 4age.

[@bryan10444]

@@mikemikeyee in what setting? I would like to prevent that

[@ToreDL87]

Yeah even kaicho (runningfree86) blows up half a dozen motors a year, and he's got oil cooler w/reloc, dry-sump, accu-sump, and the full build regalia. What we need is crankshafts with larger oil galleries and aluminum block with special design to allow for larger, higher volume (not pressure, volume) oil pump (from 2JZGTE or something)

[@supercattelephone]

@@ToreDL87 I was just gunna say, should also throw in a beefier oil pump to keep oil flowing up top.

[@ToreDL87]

@@supercattelephone Yeah, needs to be more flow to avoid it heating up at the last journal. I asked around and some are thinking about making aluminum 4age blocks, but that was 4-5 years ago, nothing yet. Issue with 4A-GE is it literally started as a grocery getter motor based on an almost half-decent Ford design. The engine block itself just isn't physically beefy enough to sustain the revs required to make power. Sure, can be jazzed up to respectable numbers, but with almost no reliability, nzae86 tried and he barely got 20hrs out of it. We're honestly better off with Millington 16v 300whp+ N/A engines, and I say Millington because those have as much heritage with Ford as the 4A-GE's do (so it wouldn't be a crime).

[@eminye1]

just upgrade the brakes, the car is doing well.

[@Ambient129]

And tbh, the most you'd likely need would be some proper pads and some braided steel brake lines with DOT4 fluid. I could also see a proportioning valve coming in handy if the brake bias isn't optimal, but time will tell.

[@soranopratanavaraha614]

My AE101 with 4age 20v BT is running stock brakes with endless pads and its doing wonderfully

[@matthewadkins9810]

I say upgrade braking system and tires. See if the suspension can keep up

[@Progressionmotorsports]

Wow that gearing is great! The revs climbs so freely!

[@sushpants]

Definitely! It's nice to never fall out of the power curve.

Yay! My Starlet made it in the video!!

[@sushpants]

I couldn't leave it out. But honestly, it deserves a bigger highlight video.

[@manaiatouge9651]

Dude it rips! A decent set of pads and rotors and some sticky tires to help with the understeer and will go a long way! An Lsd box is always a bonus but learning the cars limits before diving in the deep end is a good thing to learn too. Great to hear that 20v open up and roar

[@GMANistheleet]

That little FX killed it out there. Great job man. Reliability parts and seat time!

[@jewffrytejada5162]

You got my respect, your project is amazing. It shows how much fun we can have with our little cars.

[@gergoantal1066]

I firmly believe that one doesn't need a big sports car to have fun, many hatchbacks can be easily modded to be more than enough if you have reasonable expectations.I really hate people who instantly shit on these kinds of cars, very ignorant.I have a Civic, because I love Honda, because it's affordable, reliable, but fun and well built.Same goes for Corollas really.

[@chemist7908]

That 1UZ swap looked great too

[@sushpants]

The 1UZ car was done beautifully. It looks like @ae86mikey didn't cut any corners.

[@poptartmcjelly7054]

The 85WHP guy should talk to Garage4AGE, that dude knows exactly how to squeeze every bit of juice out of that engine.

Already watch their content! I should mention that 85WHP was at 4400ft elevation. It made 101WHP corrected for altitude. Still sad face. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[@ryuzo13691]

this just make me want to rebuild my E80 corolla properly even more. seeing how the dash is exactly the same, makes me want to achieve similar things like yours do. running on touges, and also running on trackdays. Thanks for the quality video as always! your 4AGE's sound never cease to amaze !

[@boomgarf5459]

That was awesome. The edit was perfect... and the sound!

[@Studio_Wahnsinn]

The track looks like a lot of fun. From what I can see an LSD and more tire could help. It could also be more tailhappy, at least for my taste. With a bit of load change oversteer you could position it better. I hope my english is ok.

[@Miky9560]

He already has an LSD in this 6 speed gearbox but yeah the stock one isn't very sharp. Agree for the tires and the tailhappy thing

[@FronkG]

@@Miky9560 doesnt the C-52 in the fx16 has open diff?

[@tezy0193]

thats a very cool car you got there, looks fun as hell on track

[@BonyAhmed]

this is called the perfect setup !!! nice !!!!

[@FranciscoSantos-ks7sk]

Correct me if I'm wrong, there seems to be a few corners where you rely on letting go of the gas, you would benefit a lot of left foot braking on a FF car. You're struggling with the steering (and I can feel your pain if the AE82 steering is the same as the AE92, it's heavy as sh...) and kinda toasting your front tires. Other than that I think you don't need any upgrades, just seat time, the setup seems pretty well sorted and ready to provide you hours of lapping! Always nice to see your videos!

[@ifrit35]

Thanks algorithm. Great video. Love the induction noise coming from this engine.

[@4AGEEDGarage]

FX is going great against the other Corolla's and sounding amazing as usual, looked like a fun day and was a good watch 👍 I think upgrading your brakes and aquire another set of wheels with semi slicks for events will transform the car on the track. Over here in New Zealand I swapped my AE92 brakes out for AE111 2 piston calipers with Celica rotors on the front and larger AE111 brakes on the rear along with aw11 braided brake lines. Made a great upgrade on a budget.

[@wopino]

I don't think it needs anything, just more seat time, that was AWESOME!! Car is running great!

[@nimmen]

Really fun to watch! Nicely edited too.

[@Tofuboi]

KZbin didn't show me this until 3 days later which I'm gutted about! But dang the FX did fantastic! Had the video playing on the home theatre system cranked up and the 4A's just sang through my speakers like a hymn or some kind haha. It was great. I reckon some bigger brakes will assist with being able to dive a bit more into some of those corners. Fantastic video and love the eurobeat bits because they're always neat. :p Keep it up!

[@Blu_Gum]

such a great video. keep up the awesome content

[@sushpants]

[@ethaneve7923]

Awesome video! My first track days were at Thunderhill Raceway West. It is an awesome track for lower powered cars. People I spoke to there said the key to success on that track is good tires and brakes.

Nice, I thought you were towards central or eastern states this whole time. Last video I saw from you was around the time you had the VS eg6 video, didn't recognize the roads. Good going and also enjoy the touge videos you have as it harkens back to earlier simpler times. Thill west ccw is my preferred track in norcal, have not done CW yet.

Sadly there is no LSD to tighten :( But I have my eye on a Kaaz unit.

Lovely Vid! I love FX-GT's my father rallied one in Malaysia in the 80's - never really forgave him for selling it... it was always nippy and quick... honestly from your vid - i dont know what tires you are running... but some of them are on Semi-slicks like the AR1 etc - its unfair to compare if you are running UHP tires... i think compared to some of them that you are following - it looks like the car is running very well and quick... more power would help it for sure - improve the midrange.... and an LSD if you havent got one yet - with some better brake pads... so much fun... looked very fun! Glad you had a great day out!
