    Great car! Love the idea!
    Actually the Toyota VVT-I engines are fully variable, not just on/off cam control systems.
    They have spool valves at the back (AZ) or the front (ZZ) of the engine's head that is responsible for the control.
    Range is 40° crank angle. They will provide better driveablity, and down low, it helps the charging system to come to life.

      Was coming in to also say this, it’s a pwm solenoid, and depending on the exact engine the Toyotas range from 30-60 degrees of sweep on the cam. Even more low end power can be had from tuning that correctly.

    • @zyeborm

      He may have been talking about the polarity of the pwm signal, turn off as in pull down rather than pull up. So 0 duty cycle is full on and max duty cycle is full off.

      It’s because of the way the awd system works. WRX’s need a different style driving to take advantage of the awd system. In WRX’s you need to setup corners to have the whole car in a slight powerslide throttling the power to obtain the perfect exit. Where the RAV4 will be more forgiving because it is front wheel biased giving the driver big error margins if the weight transfer is not correct.

I've broken literally everything on a WRX including a sway bar. I can't even remember replacing a ball joint on a Rav4 doing the same events.

    My mom had one with the 1.8l 150hp engine (sadly auto) and it was also fun. Did do amazing awd drifts on the snow. Those are really good cars, hence their value. Here in europe they already fetch a good premium because here were not that many sold. A Toyota dealer 2 years ago asked me if we still have it because he wants to buy it back. He has so many customers waiting for one.

    ethanol is cool for tuning and power, but it would be fair to say it has some serious drawbacks, especially when you dont drive your car often. It settles down and decomposes in a bad way in your tank and lines after some time, can clog up your lines, it draws water in and causes corrosion of everything that can corrode, it dissolves some rubber parts etc.

    Part of the power magic on the K series is how well the factory head flows and to a lesser extent the intake as well.
    They are certainly strong but it's the volumetric efficiency that lets the turbo multiply power enough to take advantage of that strength

    kind of a cult car here in England, held their value so well even ratty ones are like 2.5k

    A good idea for this in a different build would be do the full engine and frame swap from the v6 Rav (2GR-FE). Over 270hp factory... then get a built 2GR-FE for a 400hp NA V6 manual screamer... OR fit the supercharger like the TRD Aurion. Would be a sick nugget in the short wheelbase Rav!!

    In the uk most car/bike guys go out their way to avoid e10 petrol. It’s mad seeing how much love e85 gets in Aus… I know compatible fuel pumps and lines have no problems with ethanol, but people still go on about ethanol being corrosive/lacking the lubrication and cleaning properties of super unleaded.

    • @Zark-Muckerberg
      @Zark-Muckerberg 5 месяцев назад +3

      Thats because e10/15 was sole created for emissions purposes, whereas e85 was created as an alternative to premium that provides cooler engine temps.

      I've been running E85 for probably 5 years now in my JZZ30 Toyota Soarer. Regular oil changes are key. My fuel system is also built to handle it, pump, fuel filter, injectors etc. I will say though that it is more corrosive for seals. I also don't let my car sit for long periods of time without starting the engine as I do worry about it clogging the fuel filter and injectors.
      Makes a heap of horsepower though, and it used to be cheaper to fill up with E85 compared to 98 Octane.

      10% ethanol doesn't matter that much unless you're leaking water into your tank. e10 is the base 91 in thailand.
      and well uh if you have failed gas cap seal on your motorbike it starts to matter yes, sure, the alcohol makes a separate layer with the alcohol from the gasoline then and you gulp that every so often when driving around. and yes they do run that in the 40y old supercubs or whatever too. thailand has e20 as well and the e85.
      and lpg and ncg. and a couple of diesel varieties.
