E12 Corolla 1.4 VVTi to 1.8 VVTLi Difficulty
Aamir2892 replied to SteveEire's topic in Corolla & Corolla Cross Club
Might be easier just to get a T Sport complete to be honest. Part prices in total and time will equal to the price of a whole car.- 1 reply

Ticking could be anything from just Injector/rocker noise. Could also be a timing chain issue or the Aux belt/pulleys. Kind of a gamble to be honest unless its properly checked out.

Most likely under the glovebox is where most of the common ones are. Remove glovebox and its covered with a black cap which also is the fuse map. There is also a small fuse box behind the cubby on drivers side.

Corolla E12 prefacelift Steering wheel upgrade to facelift?
Aamir2892 replied to JiiN's topic in Corolla & Corolla Cross Club
I have read somewhere that the boss or where the clock spring is, is different. Like you said also the airbag connections also, If it looks significantly different then it most likely wont work. I think the pre face Celica steering might though but don't hold that to me as I've only seen a image of someone who has it. -
Have noticed recently, the thefts seem to be happening more often now, people trying to make a quick buck in recent times maybe? Prius and maybe other Hybrids seem to be the most common car of target also. Watched a video of how quick they jack the car very dodgy and get under it, remove CAT and jack down and done. Literally 1-3 minutes if even that. They also have a few people with them and do it in broad daylight and people around just think they are working on their own car. Plus with everyone wearing masks makes it even more difficult to find and prosecute.

The Gyro sensor is under the passenger seat that's used for the VSC, unplug that. Will throw the lights on the dash most likely though.

nitrous oxides in a corolla t sport?
Aamir2892 replied to 932993's topic in Corolla & Corolla Cross Club
Most likely blow the engine tbh, not sure if anyone has run Nos on a 2ZZ. Not sure if the compression ratio of 11.5:1 would be the issue or not. Its like why a supercharger is more suited to these engines and not a Turbo unless you put in lower compression pistons. -
I'm running Brembo Pads and discs on my Compressor, they seem alright. Yes was also surprised this post has come back up again after 10 years!

T-Sport to Compressor Conversion
Aamir2892 replied to Nemmfesta's topic in Corolla & Corolla Cross Club
Wiring loom is little different due to relay etc for supercharger clutch, unless you go with a fixed pulley. Intake manifold, Oil cooler as engine will run hot, Bigger injectors, Bracing and suspension if you want of course, ECU for a Comp as MAP is different, probably also need 98+ Octane fuel. Might be cheaper to get a Comp in the end. -
EFI Fuse on my Compressor keeps blowing
Aamir2892 replied to alexcbx's topic in Corolla & Corolla Cross Club
Very surprised, the Comp parts sharing and help is almost non-existent on that page just like its actual forum. Glad its fixed and another Comp is still on the road! -

LOL, i have just had a closer look at the pic of the new clutch you posted 😄 interesting to see. Lucky you came across it and that it works just as well as the original! -

No problem, I am glad I could help and you also helped me to help someone else! I would rather see Compressors still on the road than scrap because parts such as pulleys etc are very difficult to come by. I didn't even know someone else sells similar electromagnetic clutch assembly with the same diameter pulley, defiantly good to know for the future. I have a friend on FB who's clutch and pulley bearing are shot, hes been trying to get another pulley with no luck for a long time. I will defiantly point him towards this. Thanks for the pictures also. How did you manage to incorporate the wiring into the existing male connector? -

On my Comp belt is 6PK 2040. All pulleys standard. Can’t really tell from the pictures, does that kit contains everything including a pulley? Standard Comp pulley is 100mm iirc. -

Do Volvo sell a clutch similar to the Ogura one? What do they use it for, is it just the clutch part or the whole pulley? Keep us updated and some pictures would be great!
