New member here, currently building a 93 corolla that has st185 floorpan and running gear so i thought should share my project with you.
I'll start at the begining, I bought a 1.3 gli corolla and kitted it out with gxi bumpers,side skirts,spoiler, 17" ice seven's,lowered on konis with pi springs and give it a good polish.

Cheers lads, i love this wee car so i decided to chop her up,the inspiration for the project came from fensports corollas, corolla wrc and the cosworth floorpan transplants, so went onto the old ebay and bidded on the ugliest st185 i've ever seen, the back quarterglass had been removed and these big night-rider style fiberglass bulges had been badly moulded in and it had a huge halfords style wing that went threw the original spoiler an onto the boot lid, but i rang the seller and he said it was good driver. Any way I won the bid because i don't think anyone else wanted it, got it for 580 pounds, drove it back 600 miles to ireland apart from the exhaust falling off on the m6 and the bust diff mount banging away it drove fine.
When i got home i put 4 space saver wheels on it and pretended to ari vatanen attacking pikes peak for a day. Then i stripped the st185 and the corolla and put them beside each other so i could compare measurments and do some trial marking out.
Measurments ST185 Corolla
Length 4420mm 4090mm (370mm shorter)
Wheelbase 2525mm 2464mm (61mm shorter)
Front track 1466mm 1470mm (4mm wider)
Rear track 1445mm 1460mm (15mm wider)
Between front chassis leg 875mm 875mm (same where its jointed)
Between mid bulk head 1525mm 1495mm (floor is 30mm shorter
From valance seam to floor seam 325mm 325mm (same where it is jointed)
Between sills 1320 mm 1305mm 15mm narrower)
From these measurments I knew the st185 floorpan into the corolla transplant was possible

I spent a good part of a month looking at the cars removing underbody sealer and drawing lines trying to figure where the best places to cut, using steel rules 150mm, 300mm, 1000mm, tape measure, a home-made dividers that went out to 2300mm,plumb bobs, string etc, to mark out as i relied on a accurate cut to make sure that st185 floor was thru to the centre line of the corolla.
I started with the st185 and marked a centre line on the floor as this had to line up with the corolla centre lines that i marked on the bulk head and the mid-bulk head and this would insure the st185 front subframe would be square to the car. Then i made big axle stands 850mm high with tabs on the feet so i could hilti them to the garage floor they also had a removable brace's and where welded to the sills this was to insure the corolla didn't spring out when the floor came out.
Cut the two floors out compared them on the ground made any extra trimmings, also found where the sills meet the lower bulk head there are 3 skins inside there. i had to weld the skins together with 3 separate plates on each side of the floor and on each side of the corolla so now there 12 2mm triangles roughly around 100mm to 150mm insde the st 185 floor but you cant see them but i had to do this as if i only welded the out side skin i would jeopardize structural integrity of the car.
Then we fitted it up and started tacking, checking triangulation and when i was happy i tig welded it all in and cooling with compressed air and taking my time to minimise distortion.

The next phase, was to put the engine\gearbox and front subframe in.

Made that mount out of 6mm plate reinforced to the underside of the car and st185 enginemount. the gearbox mount is tophalf corolla and bottom half st185.
Apparently the st205 engine mount makes a easier job of it.

To mount the rear sub frame,

When it came to fitting the fmic I got a very large (100mm thick ) pulsar gtir core with 75mm inlet/outlet

To mount this bent some 12mm bar, turned some 25mm bar to make some spacers and welded them on to 12mm bar and the car.
The top mounts for cooler, I used the same spacers but just tacked them into the channel of the bumper bar under the holes i drilled.

When it came to fitting the rad first i tried the st185 rad, very easy to fit (just moved one lower bracket and drilled one hole to space out one top rad clamp). But the gap between the rad and the ct26turbo was very close only 25mm, since i'll be running a gt35r i had to create more room.

Looked around and found that a rs 500 rad fits into the space below the slam panel of the corolla(also very easy to fit with some 30x16 nylon strip at the top and weld on some tabs at the bottom for rubber mounts, but i had to get rid of the oem bonnet catch to make room and fitted aerocatchs instead.

Cheers, All the st185 running gear is now junk all running gear will be post96 205 running gear.
I'll cover all the engine build after i've put all the body shell build which i've spent about 1200hrs on.
Here's a peep of the motor,just to show the size of the turbo note the compressor housing is to be spun around facing down the way.

Cheers steelballz,
Red and black e11wrc cage painted black, striped out with flocked dash and carbon seats foot wells etc.

Yeah why not. it not built for any thing in particular apart from being a mad yoke,Here's a few more pics of the floor swap,
ignore dates on photo. these are taking at christmas just pass there.

Cheers lads,
The next phase, was to put the engine\gearbox and front subframe in.

Made that mount out of 6mm plate reinforced to the underside of the car and st185 enginemount. the gearbox mount is tophalf corolla and bottom half st185.
Apparently the st205 engine mount makes a easier job of it.

Changing the floor seems a bit nuts but once thats done it makes things a lot easier as now all standard gt4 front subframe,no need to move rack around, no need to tunnel her and make a prop carrier bearing mount the floor came with it and a load of other small things too.

To mount the rear sub frame,

Spare wheel well had to be removed.

Then i did the forward towers, i also harvest the original towers from the st185 trimmed them down and welded them onto platforms that i built up of the chassis legs and the roll cage pick ups.

RS500 Anti-roll bar

The top mounts had to get new hole drilled and the old holes had to be welded up.

Heres a clip the day before i pulled the gt4 apart.

So this is what is was left with then these wheels are 18x8 30mm offset with a 225/35 fitted her lovely

Then started to put in the cage,

Cleaned up the inside of the car, polished all welds and sprayed with acid etch

Here i added some additional bracing from the cage down thought floor to the rear forward subframe turrets.

Cheers lads, thanks for the commets.
When it came to fitting the fmic I got a very large (100mm thick ) pulsar gtir core with 75mm inlet/outlet

To mount this bent some 12mm bar, turned some 25mm bar to make some spacers and welded them on to 12mm bar and the car.
The top mounts for cooler, I used the same spacers but just tacked them into the channel of the bumper bar under the holes i drilled.

The oem tow eyes had to be cut of and plated over as the fmic pipes fouled on them, this also acted as a strengthening gusset.

When it came to fitting the rad first i tried the st185 rad, very easy to fit (just moved one lower bracket and drilled one hole to space out one top rad clamp). But the gap between the rad and the ct26turbo was very close only 25mm, since i'll be running a gt35r i had to create more room.

90mm extra clearance now with ct26

Cheers, All the st185 running gear is now junk all running gear will be post96 205 running gear.
I'll cover all the engine build after i've put all the body shell build which i've spent about 1200hrs on.
Here's a peep of the motor,just to show the size of the turbo note the compressor housing is to be spun around facing down the way.

Put some castors and braces on the rotisserie so i could get the car on the trailer took it down the road and got the underside of the shot blasted and primmed also in 3rd pic you can see one of the extra rear sub frame brace mounts.

Here's some pic's of every thing except the outside painted, Hugh Gallagher from glenties did the work he's very tasty and has great attention to detail it. he did the cage first spend a full masking it and then rest 6litres on her so far.

Link G3 XLEM
It looks like the front wheel bends when it lands.

96 on wards thickwall 3sgte block

Sleeve's

Bored out to 91.5mm to accept sleeves

Metal left over from boring

Sleeves being pressed in.

Then it got decked, torque honed and aline honed

Then a caustic wash and some paint

Its over 100 ron but not sure of the exact number, i was talkin to ryan griffith over in the uk and he said it'd be a good idea to put a second map on it for E85, runs a lot cooler than petrol aswel.

I had mine mapped by ECC up in lisburn, will be goin back again soon to change a few bits, the standard cams are seriously holdin back the car at the min

Are you using rev1/2 or rev3 engine?

Its a rev 1 engine, worst cams as standard!

Are ya going to change the cams or swap the motor?

Some new parts CP Pistons 86.00mm

Eagle stroker rods

Balanced crank

5S-FE stroker crank

some amount of work going into the engine now aswell...

with the plans for the turbo and the rods/pistons, what boost and power you going for/hoping for when done?

also what cc is the 5s-fe, only one I'd heard of so far was a camry v6 lol?

The crank is a forged one from a 2.2 5s-fe which i a 4cyl camry, but when you machine down the main cap journals, modify the pcd of the bolt holes where the flywheel bolts on. it fits into 3sgte and the big end of the rods have to be machined to match. but when you put that all that together with the short rods and those pistons you get a 2100cc.
I'll be getting 2bar absolute with gt4094r with 3'' pipe work and a 4'' tb running nos and with 119ron leaded race fuel will give me 900fwbhp.
or gt35r 1.5 bar with 95ron mixed with 110ron at 4:1 will give around 600fwhp.

Theres a forged gt4 engine for sale on dtd at the min, should be good for around 400bhp so jus tryin to get the funds for it, dunno wat you work at but by the looks of all the savage parts goin into it must pay well!!!! If only i could win the lotto!

Def have to get a spin off this when its finished, when you hopin to have it done?

I make 11 euro per hour man as a welder/fabricator which is not that much i'm skint to the bag at the moment mind you. i could do with a big cash injection to finish her off. Way cheaper to buy a forged engine already built than to build one. 400bhp sound like the max enjoyable bhp a 3sgte could run. Nathan freke said that one 1/4mile run on this engine at full power, would be the same as a standard 3s doing 10000 miles.

Bottom end built up with ACL bearings and ARP studs.

New valve seats and 5 angle valve cut on exhuast

Piper 272 Degree cams inlet and exhuast

Compression working out at a nice 8.7-1

Then time to dial the cams in.. found a good video to explain this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_MsqA-C3vGI&feature=related

Cheers folks, thanks for the comments.
Got a new manifold its designed for a mr2 so it needs some chopping and welding but it has cnc milled runner section and 100mm tb and nos ports.

I want the whole car.imagine how many things this car will put to shame because no-one will see it coming....
if only I had money lol

Yeah its a real sleeper, i did think about massive arches and tyres but i dont need anything wider than 225's with the 4wd. all i did was give them a little flare around 10mm.
But i'll show ya theses any way.

Cheers man,
The list is a mile long yet.
1. make up a trollie so i can take it down of the rotisserie so the out side can be painted in the booth.
2.Rose joint all the suspenion
3. proalloy tank

4. ap 6 pot kit http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Celica-GT4-ST...arts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item27afb86416
5.Seats http://www.nickygrist.com/corbeau-pro-series-520-p.asp and frames.
6. wheels http://www.rotarims.ie/alloys_sub2.asp?id=27 the top ones on the left.
And loads of other stuff one job at a time.

I'll sent a few emails to ap and try and get them at trade price which is close to 1800pounds.no point in spending all that on a engine and it wont stop. pricey but ap are the best.
This is the new dash it has gps track ploter lap time, data logger, can monitor every thing you want it to do, boost, water and air,oil and coolant temp and loads of other shite.

heres a link to the newer model but more or less the same unit in nicer casing http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MMmAOBQcTg4

Because the engine will be running coil on plug ingition from the celica zzt231 and getting rid of the distribrutor. the engine needs a crank trigger wheel to reference TDC and crank rotation and aproximity switch counts the teeth and send pluses back to the ecu.

It has 36 teeth so evey tooth is equal to 10 degress rotion same as ford stuff.
and the gap tell the ecu where TDC is.
Also a cam sensor is needed for this setup

These are the bits i'll be make the exhaust out of its 100mm bore and i'll have it coming out of the drivers side of the front bumper along with the screamer pipe (50mm) and a carbon or stainless surround to stop it melting the bumper plus tidy up the cut out and the cut out for the standard exhaust on the rear gxi bumper will be filled in using another piece from a sracped bumper leaving it tidy at the back.

Hers the turbos Gt 4094r on the left and gt3582r from owen delevoments

@jbEP82 Thanks very much, i can't wait to see finish to and my girl friend wishes it was finished months ago, i wish i took more pictures now, theres lots of things missing because i forgot to take pictures like the
quick release front bumper,
i turned the fog light holes into vents with venturi shaped funnels
prop shaft shorten,
mounting aero catching's in the bonnet
seam welding
removing all unessary weight from doors, bootlid, bonnet.
and theres loads of other stuff too.

Maybe the most viewed on toc :lol:
Should be around 600bhp with 480ftlbs of torque on 98ron 1.5bar atmo
And 900bhp with 600ftlbs on 119ron leaded sunoco with nos 2bar atmo
all at the flywheel

that's crazy power! will be interesting to watch on a drag strip!

11 second evo, interesting
10 second skyline, amazing
9 second corolla priceless!

These are parts to go the nos system theres a controler to go along with this as well.

@ QuinnyGT Thanks man i never set out from the beginning to build a 3sgte 4wd corolla, it just happened. it started as a 4efte conversion, then a 3sgte fwd conversion, then i found the floor pan from the st185 was very similar to the corolla, then i got the cage and the i came across Nathan freke with his 927 bhp mr2 and so on. its mad how things come about, how a small thing leads to a bigger thing.
@stevvtio Cheers man, haven't seen that car in a while i wonder where it is that car was unreal i remember seeing it in galway one weekend and it blew me away and the sound of it, class with anti_lag when no road car had it. Definitely a insiration for my car.
@ karl1 I couldn't say it better myself :lol: its not with out it pain. But i love working on my car, its just you can easily piss other people when building a project like.It has not been with out its sacrifice's such as neglecting the girlfriend ,been wrecked tired at work and if i'm not tried i cant stop thinking about the car, not seeing your mates because your stuck in the garage whenever you have sparetime, the owl fella is pissed off because your not helping around the house and being broke! apart from that its been great .
@Boxy starlet if you can get your hands on a spare 6-8 grand i'll finish her off for ya next week :lol:

@ scough and chriskane92 Thanks very much if i put 25euro per hr like garage rates on the time i've put into it i would owe myself 30grand at this stage, this car will never be finished as there will always be more stuff i want to do to her probably every winter she'll get a upgrage of sort. In a project like this and others on the forum its about enjoying working on yor car as much as driving it, otherwise i would have just bought a evo, but for me i would have my corolla over any car i can think off because i built it. even if i where to sell it, which i will never its still would be know as my car. it wont matter whos name is on the log book.

Cheers Buddy,
Heres the shell http://toyotaownersclub-irl.forumot...st185-gt4-fit-into-4ftx4ft-trailier-t1437.htm you can make me a offer.

Cheers Bubba, alot of people said i should of got another corolla to do the work on and and sold my one to fund the project, but it wouldn't be the same car that i drove home from work dreaming of having a 3sgte and 4wd in it and imagining what it would be like or a different car wouldn't have the same reg 93 DL 5050 either, 50% corolla 50% GT4 :lol:

This another second hand piece i got from The century motorsport mr2 it has the nitrous controler, exhaust gas temp , Boost, fuel pressure, Air fuel ratio all are greddy guages. i'll be putting these into my own celica / corolla hybrid centre console.

Heres a link so show how the system i'll be using works.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UDrzHpNP20U&feature=channel

Made a trollie so the outside of the car could be taken down of the rotisserie and put into the booth ( inside and underneath 2K and outside waterbased)

Started with the base of a fish freezer trollie because it is strong, has good castors and it was free!

Then I needed to extend it to 1650 as the jack up points are 1520 apart on the corolla along the sills.

Then I need to mount the upright sections that will support the car this made out of 50x50x3 box section and the weld on threaded spuds where machinened up with a m8 threaded

Next the upright section these are made from 40x40x5

Then a lick of MF super red

Then put her together and then you have a adjustable trollie that will suitable for a few cars and can be lifted with the forklift.

Small box

Dash

Guages and nitrous controller

Hoses

The very big box.

The worlds most poweful 3s-gte now resides in Donegal!



Theres more pic's of stuff but photobucket ain't in the mood tonight

@andycam06 its a thin line thats all i'll say :lol: , Yeah should have it done by the summer hopefully.
Thanks for the comments lads appreciate it.
Not much to update started a new job I've been very busy.

All the door and boot lid shuts are now done,along with the inside of the doors, bonnet and behind the rear bumper etc. All panel and door gaps are done. The trollie was a little on the high side so I had to cut the angle brackets down to lower the car closer to the ground as Hugh ( bodywork guy) couldn't reach the roof properly. But its starting to look more like a car again.

Also when I was down there there was a guy getting his ae92 restored excuse the wheels there being replace with oem ae92 wheels as this car i say is going to be concors juging by the engine detail.

And this is the mintest ae86 i've ever seen 56k geniune mies all original body, lovely car just drool!

Started to make a engine stand,

All universal stands you have to remove the 3s flywheel and clutch to get to mount to the stand like this.

But I wanted a stand where by I could mount it up complete with Fly/clutch but as to mount the starter to turn the engine and possibly run the engine on the stand if i wish to so I had a spare mr2 turbo box kicking around with no diff in it so i took the bellhousing side off and give it to Brendanlez and he took some big chucks of aluminium of it with his big milling machine and he kindly give it a blast clean too. Cheeers Brendan.

Then i set it up on the small miling machine and started tiding it up, with a 25mm end mill.

Then it to the saw to cut the diff side cover of the bellhousing

Then this needs a 12mm plate welded onto it and 4 holes drilled into the new plate and it can mount to my stand.

A quick update, the rolla is still getting painted :roll:

I thought I would have it back for x-mas but its not going to happen.

Mad to get her back though and start bolting her back together.

But I did do a bit more on the 3S engine stand.

Brendanlez kindly give me a bit of 12mm aluminium he had kicking around.

Then i placed the bellhousing on top of this Alumium plate and traced around the inside of it.

Drill two holes init so it could bolt on a 120mm x 50mm x 12mm (its under neeth you cant see it) so I could clamp it in the vice on the bed the milling machine.

Then I roughly followed the line with a 10mm slot drill.

Then taped it into the bellhousing half way and welded it up inside and out using the AC tig at 165 amps.
Toyota castings are top quaility, even though it wasnt the cleanest it still welded sweet.

This will then bolt onto my engine stand.

Thanks very much lads for the comments

Got around to finishing the engine stand

I made this stand when I was on my phase two block release of my apprenticeship,
when i was in Dundalk and I made a balls of it, it was crooked,far too high and with three swivel wheels and
it rolled all over the place when using it, but at least its something to work with.

For a good working height the crank should be around ball bag height for some strange reason.

So I chopped her up.

And lowered it now and added in a gusset made from the piece i cut out.

Welded up the rear swivel castors ( tescos finest)

Added on a rubber foot at the front to stop it moving when i dont want it to and

give it a lick of paint with a shittest paint brush i ever came across i may as well used a stick.

I then put the engine on the stand with it turbo and manifold to see what it looks like.

to think he couldnt weld when he started it too, We are having a TOC-IRL meet up this way when its finished, Im sure anyone would be more than welcome.

If you look up "worlds fastest MR2 Nathan" on youtube, you will see how fast it was, this is the engine management etc from it
