    In 33 years as a Pipefitter and Welder, I've never found a spot i couldn't get a grinder.
    Don't encourage Moose. He's teaching kids to disregard their and others saftey.

  • @therealboofighter

    This is not hate but a real question. Was there a IRS option for this car? And it seamed like you are adding a lot of weight to the rear axle are you concerned about it?

    • @sigmaprojects
      @sigmaprojects 7 лет назад

      IRS didn't become an option in the Celica till 1983, but the IRS was a semi trailing arm setup, not really that great for performance, better for comfort. I think in 86 the IRS was a lot better as they switched to a transverse setup for FWD/AWD. I think the weight difference isn't that great and they are definitely lighter than most live axles, especially since this is I believe a 6.7" rear end.

    • @speedacademy

      An outstanding idea, as we'll prove in the next episode, but since we'll be converting the rear to full coilovers we didn't bother with the spring perches.

  • @wendysorbust
    @wendysorbust 7 лет назад +1

    I really like yall's videos and I think you guys deserve many more views that what you guys get. You guys are grounded, keep it honest and have well edited videos.
    However, it is hard to follow you guys due to the order of how you guys put out videos. When I began watching you guys a few months ago I got lucky and just picked a playlist and let the videos roll. I ultimately caught up, but the order in which you guys put out updates on projects is frustrating to say the least. Instead of sticking with one or two projects there are 4 or 5 that we will get videos on, and sometimes go weeks without hearing from other projects. For example, I was really enjoying the Mustang Project but its been weeks since we've gotten any sort of update on it. Instead we've received updates on the S2000 (which are always good videos) this Celica build, and then some random cars track cars.
    I realize that with a smaller youtube channel its hard to coordinate parts, time, and filming but ultimately posting weekly updates on certain projects keeps viewers engaged and more likely to return. I really like you guys and hope to see yall succeed.

    • @speedacademy
      @speedacademy  7 лет назад +1

      thanks for the constructive feedback! We are working on ways to tighten things up and put out complete builds in sequence so that we don't leave viewers hanging. That was our intention with the Mustang but unfortunately we hit a bump in the road that has held us up for a few weeks now. It'll be back in the rotation shortly and wrapped up in the spring.

    I did a similar swap on my 75 ra22.
    I used a 71 8inch hilux differential with a Detroit Trutrac. I also used the excessive differental bracket kit.

    • @speedacademydave
      @speedacademydave 7 лет назад +1

      Great choice! If we had plans to put more power through the rear end than the Beams will produce, an 8'' rear end would definitely have been our choice too.

  • @domonkostomcsanyi3698
    @domonkostomcsanyi3698 7 лет назад

    I don't think the stock AE86 rear end will be strong enough for the BEAMS...most people run MA40 Supra rears as far as I know, but I'd be happy to be proven wrong on this :). One thing I can recommend is getting a TRD/Kaaz LSD for it.

    • @speedacademy
      @speedacademy  7 лет назад +1

      I guess we'll find out how strong it is the old-fashion way...by trying to blow it up at the track. We'll definitely put a quality LSD in it.

    • @domonkostomcsanyi3698
      @domonkostomcsanyi3698 7 лет назад

      I really am curious to see how well it holds up - got an A6 Celica (4A-GE swapped) with the same rear and was thinking about the BEAMS, but I'm afraid it'll kill the rear :( so I'm awaiting for the next videos :)

      Ya, definitely considered it. If we could have found one, would have used it. Those are rarer than sasquatch riding a unicorn around here though, so we settled for an AE axle for now. Eventually I suspect we'll upgrade to either a beefier solid axle or convert it to IRS, but for now we'll get her up and running and ripping around the track with the AE axle and see how we like it.

      We have thought about an IRS conversion. That may be part of the Celica 2.0 build, but first we want to get her running and rip some hot laps so the AE rear end is a good way to do that without too much fabrication required.

      Swapping to a MKII Supra IRS seems like a relatively waste of time, there are much better IRS setups out there. The MKII Supra IRS has a lot squat issues and is a semi-trailing arm setup, not really the best for performance.
