Depends what you intend to do with it. If you are going to leave it stock go with a blacktop. if you are going to turbo it go with a 1st gen 4agze bigport. the second gen was the small port, which in stock form is better, but used a maf sensor rather then map and is a pain in the ass to properly tune.
update, down to one corolla, just be patient man, you'll find a clean one eventually, 4agePower, is it u that has been posting the black AE92 on c list in the twin cities??? not clean, but still has parts i'd snatch, like sideskirts and motor.....
congrats on the fx-16, not my cup-o-tea, but u deffinately dont see them everyday. I hav 3 86's, my friend has 2, and my other friend has 4 and there are a few more out her in WI, but I still hav yet to see an fx-16 up close....
huh, well I guess u Aussies have sea air, which has salt in it......
Same thing here dude, we have winter and we salt the roads out here, so where I live they r rare, but on the West coast they are rare, but more common and cost a lot, I'm actually picking up an SR5 which is better than my currnet one for $200, (cross fingers) just needs slave cylinder.... then I'll sell my current SR5 and make sum coin since I picked it up for 500, thinking bout selling it for 1500 :thumbup:
@Reuterskiold really? Im just the next state over haha MN, fuck man find me an 86 sr5 or gts so i can throw my 4agze in it. Hard as hell to find those out here man. But if you come across the ae92 corolla gts's,( The one i like) I own 2 and need a cleaner shell, but hey cool to here anyways. Peace
I'm doing research before deciding what engine I want, so I'm going to ask you, why did you choose the silvertop over the black top? What do you like about the silver top?
Well from what I've heard, blacktops may have more power (5hp more) but they don't take well to boosting. Turbo and such cause the blacktops to spend its life faster. Silver tops from what I ve heard have stronger bottom ends.
Well, they aren't as good to boost because they have higher compression, and idk about which has a stronger bottom end. If you want to boost something I'd suggest using a 4A-GZE. ( 8:1-8.5:1compression depending on which generation and they are super strong, and since they come supercharged, they are great for turboing.) or if you want all motor you could use a GZE block, crank, and rods w/ redtop hicomp pistons. The possibilities are endless.
I'd run a 9:5.1 comp 4AGE and run less boost for the same result as a 8:1-8.5:1 comped motor running higher boost. Low compression and big boost is the old days :)
It did when I had the box on, the feed went right down to the front bar, which a 3" bit of pipe directing air, I spose when the car was moving there would be flow. Hottest the intake temps ever got where 39 degrees on 30 degree summer day.
Standard tacho is not accurate, after about 7.5K it died. This car has also been written off from the new owner. I have bought it back and it is all now in the process of being chucked into a AE86 sprinter, let the good times roll :)
I just put one on my AE95 (93 model 4wd basically the same as a 92) and wired it up to the standard tacho and it hits the limiter at around 7400 rpm. It pulls well and seems to rev a lot so I'm wondering if my tacho is reading wrong. Did yours rev to 8k?
Yeh i'm aware that they are rather noisy from the top end as i own a AE111 20 V Blacktop Levin, whilst this is rather tappety it is much quieter than yours, it sounds like the VVT is worn ?
yo its pete here. shame about the car, it was ultimate. Im living in qld now out in the middle of nowhere lol. I will get rid of the corolla soon also. maybe a aristo comming.
Ohh never mind.Already got an 4efte tercel now .
Dont need the blacktop or silvertop anymore

@lxxxevolutionxxxl get a later gen 4agze like the ae92 and swap a bigtop head on it that way you have a stronger bottom but a high flow top

so is blacktop, or silver top faster?
ajh1031 2 years ago
a blacktop is faster by about 20-30hp
and runs on a "map" induction sensoring system which is much more efficient than your standard air flow meter in the silvertops.

Blacktops are better. Higher compression, more power, higher reving, but both are great engines. But I still love my built 16valve :)

Well, it's all in personal preference. Personally I'd rather run lower compression w/ higher boost, but thats just me.
TurboLover2JZGTE 2 years ago
The only point of low comp-high boost is bragging rights. 8-10 PSI spools faster than 18-25 PSI.
Cordius 2 years ago
@TurboLover2JZGTE
There is no such thing as preference, if it performs it IS the best.
Low compression high boost=less torque, better high end potential.
High compresion low boost=more torque, less high end potential.
Take your pick.

I noticed that your original tachometer still works, so how come you got another one?
gtarpunk 3 years ago
its a larger, more clear display, closer to the driver. Not that he might need it, these units also display higher rev ranges for modded engines.
Also alot of people buy them as they have the shift light, when standard cars obviously dont come with one.
