  1. perhaps a 80's corrola would be best, depending on the size of the car...

    Toyota is infamous for re-using parts...

    I cant help specifically on your car - i dont even know what it is - so if you have any pictures, they would be greatly appreciated..

  3. NOS (you realise thats actually a brand, you should say Nitrous Oxide, or No2) is ovverated...

    Its the automotive equivalent of writing a web-page with Microsoft word - does the job but very unsofisticated and simplistic...

    Fast and the furious has a lot to answer for...

  4. well, lets deal with the second part first...

    As this is entirley possible. However, you need a compatible gearbox, as well as a complete clutch assembly, servo etc...

    It would be quite expensive to do.

    As for the former, well yes, theoretically, you could, but you would need to replace a majority of the running gear - dont forget you would need to cut a new transmission tunnel underneath the car - and as part of the process would need a whole new gearbox, you could do this as well, but it would cost you a lot of money.

    Fensport have built a 4WD 3s-GTE powered Corrola that has hit 200mph...

    I personally dont think its worth the investment, when you could buy a Celica GT4 for the money the gearbox change alone would cost..

  5. drive forward very slowly...  it may engage then.

    best not drive on roads using 4x4.. well on my hilux it is supposed to be bad to drive high speeds in 4 wheel drive

    thats just because motorway speeds for an increased amount of time can put a strain on the Diff...

    Generally you'll be fine up to 50mph in 4WD mode, but above that, best to go 2WD.

  6. oooh, very tricky..

    I had a friend with a '76 Celica, but he fettled that by hand, and used performance carbs etc...

    i think you will find it very difficult unless you can find a specialist.
