WE FIXED THE GR COROLLA'S BIGGEST PROBLEM (Rear Dif overheating)

We have made huge progress with the rear ring and pinion from IRC. The GR Corolla now is an absolute machine and we seemed to have solve the rear differential over heating issue!!.

This is exactly what I was wondering all along. I don't want gimmicks, I want reliability and consistency. Kickass content yet again!

[@NemtecRacing]

Let me know if your interested I can get you in touch

[@PaintflowException]

Im not in the market dor upgrades right now, but i will keep this in mind for next year. Ive maxed my budget for automotive right now. But this is a very reasonable fix. Just add oil cooling and a bigger radiator, and coil ivers and this is a solid platform for a variety of automotive events.

the jdm gr yaris has a kit that does exactly what you did, and it requires a pcm recalibration, so if you were to replicate this on a gr corolla aftermarket, then a syvecs controller tune is probably required

I was going to comment the same thing. I wonder if we can find the oem constant velocity part numbers, that would surely be cheaper ex Japan than 2100usd.

Quick summary guys: they found the fix to the overheating diff. They blew up the engine! That's right, all you gotta do to stop the diff from overheating is blow up the engine! Can't overheat the diff if the car doesn't drive. That's your pro tip for the day!

[@nesertema4583]

you did your research regarding the oil? 7:12 amsoil says following: AMSOIL SEVERE GEAR is compatible with most limited-slip differentials. For applications that require additional limited-slip friction modifier, add AMSOIL Slip Lock.® the clutch pack needs that friction modifier or an oil which already has them in it.

[@NemtecRacing]

We’ve played around with different fluids in the rear dif and the severe gear did good for the lsd but we started running 75-140 and it seems to be way way better

[@nesertema4583]

@@NemtecRacing can you actually confirm, the clutchpack and rear diff housing are interconnected? which means they are sharing the same fluid? I never checked, but there was a common knowledge on the gr yaris forums, that the clutchpack is a sealed unit with a “lifetime” fluid filling…

[@NemtecRacing]

Really good content guys. Very keen to get our GR Corolla driveline rock solid for Rallysprint and Timeattack. I definitely think a cooler or larger capacity housing is a good thing but I think a Syvecs AWD controller and the new crown and pinion will be a game changer for sure. Definitely interested in how the clutch pack goes heat wise once the Syvecs is in and you're pushing more power to the rear. Peace. - Ben, Mad Panda Garage Australia

man this looks sick! Forget about the overheating issue, just making the awd more consistent and predictable is a huge plus. I'm gonna have to do this in the future! Think it will increase reliability?

Seems like it would need some type of Tune for the Awd system. It might be sturdier, but in practice, is it worst on performance in metrics around a course

[@Budgy.Derpy12]

I've been on the fence about the gr Corolla. For me, i just want a reliable 50/50 split. Correct me if im wrong but in the 30/70 mode with the ring and pinion, is it a true 50/50 with the factory diff controller? Would love a test video, say lift the car in the air and cycle through the modes in first gear idle.

awesome. I'm gonna have to do this too. Based on the "Stock"-ish mom setup and new 50/50 setup, no AWD controller needed to do basic gymkhana movement?

[@BanzaiYaris]

Have you wrapped the exhaust by the diff yet? Its a common effective fix for the GR Yaris.

Lets goooooooooo 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@noahboatwright9880]

[@indcline]

Have you guys wrapped your exhaust pipe near the rear dif? Seems to help a lot

[@NemtecRacing]

No I’m not a huge fan of exhaust wrap cause we drive in snow and it gets all wet and stuff

[@dvazquez460]

So if you change wheel and tire size in the rear that could also help?

[@NemtecRacing]

That would cause issues

[@TheGreatDrAsian]

The actual problem with the "overheating" is the sensor for the rear diff is too close to the exhaust and over time the exhaust heats up that sensor. The diff is actually perfectly fine. Shield the sensor from the heat with some exhaust tape and it's good to go.

[@flylower]

Why you just don’t swap the rear friction discs assy with a mechanical center differential like it was done on Subarus that needed to change the viscous center differential?

[@qdmax11]

More!

[@khamid1]

Hel rear diff cooler. Sorted without screwing your F:R ratios.

[@Budgy.Derpy12]

Knowing how the newer Golf R controls the rear diff, I thought, why not run left and right clutch packs on the front, right off the transmission? That way it would only send power to the front wheels when the rear wheels break traction.

[@cheeko_914]

More parts, more complexity, more weight, more money.

[@nissanguy16]

So don’t plan to try the 555 Engineering ITCC case?

@TimLakeNona Can't post links, but check the ITCC threads on the forum. Me and a couple other members out west have been looking through official literature and trying to find/develop more information. We found direct phrases about the T case and how the 2wd mode works with a thermal model. Presented it to 555 last month, and he has now released testing that agrees with the conclusion.

Makes me wonder if it's better to get a base non lsd core and do the rear gear and lsd.. 😅 Keep it in 50/50 and mosh

@@Pupperino7773 there's a few out there down here.

[@Goodman-4525]

Well i won't say this isnt one solution, but this deletes the car's ability to have any rear bias at all. In fact with that diff ratio you can probably replace the diff clutch system completely with something like a one way clutch (so you can keep your handbrake turns) since there's no speed difference between the wheels anymore. If you still want your rear bias then itll have to be some sort of cooling solution like a diff cooler, which should work now that you've found out how they share diff fluid between the LSD and the clutch

[@gonna_try_anyway7047]

They don't share fluid, he mucked up that point. Which is why no one has been able to make a proper cooler yet.

[@blackGRC]

can you elaborate about the "tiny fluid passage" on the left side that shares the diff fluid to the ITCC? were you trolling or is that legit? @ ~3 min mark

[@NemtecRacing]

They don’t share fluid at all.

[@zadekharbat]

Correction: Rear diff and itcc causing the transfer case to overheat. Its a deep issue!

[@praticalmechanical1986]

Since the 30/70 is the only mode you spent any time on, can't you just remove the clutch pack and welded it solid?

[@NemtecRacing]

No because we need a way to disconnect the rear axle. Like when we want to use the handle break the drift

[@__dm__]

3:14 the diff fluid is not shared with the clutch pack (ITCC) you'd know this if you took this apart

[@apex_gr]

Like you and everyone else who keeps echoing this really need to stop. You have 0 knowledge about thermodynamics.

[@__dm__]

@@apex_gr not sure what thermodynamics has to do with whether or not it is sharing fluid

[@carlstrohm3785]

They have had it apart at least twice now, and he stated that there is a small passage between the two compartments, so how is the fluid not shared?

[@kaymach]

he's right. the 2 do NOT share fluid. only JTEKT knows what fluid is inside the itcc. it's propriety and a completely sealed unit. how can anyone possibly deny this when they've released diagrams of how the system works and a fully written paper lol

[@__dm__]

@@carlstrohm3785 there is no small passage, that’s why. Look at the parts diagram and you’ll see they bolt together in a way that doesn’t share fluid.

[@BanzaiYaris]

Main issue for heat isnt friction its heat soak from the exhaust and the diff and exhaust are recessed into the floor pan so they dont get airflow over them to cool down even. This means the exhaust is essentially blow torching the diff while you're doing donuts with the high exhaust temps... Seriously next time you get it hot have a feel at the heat radiating to the diff under there.

[@lamspeedracing5024]

Our time attack GR Yaris has never over heated the rear diff. We have no wrapping on our exhaust either. We have raced at World Time Attack for 2 years and have the record around Sydney Motorsport Park

[@Mario-lj7gm]

Interesting, but maybe GR engineers know better and the car just wasn’t intended for donuts. I guess it’s really more of a street car. After all, it is a diff from the RAV4.

[@davidcormier924]

Why don’t you just delete the clutch pack entirely? From my understanding, it would now be permanently 70-30 ?

[@NemtecRacing]

Because the rear wheels would always be spinning faster then the fronts. The car wouldn’t be drivable

[@davidcormier924]

@@NemtecRacing from my understanding it’s a 1% speed difference or so, would you really feel it?
