ive been somewhat drifting my 06 corolla for a few month now and thing im going to swap it to rwd and keep the same engine. is there any drivetrains that may fit or will i have to do some cutting and relocation? also are there any transmissions that fit the 1zz for rwd applications?

Cheaper to buy a rwd than a conversion. SC300/400 comes to mind or IS300, IS250/350.

1J or 2J with R15x transmission and rear diff.

What does that mean? I have heard of drifting in a boat but never in a car.

i mean when the road is slick its possible to kick the rear out by weight shifting and the car enters a slide. it dosent have the power or tourqe or anyting to do it in dry weather sadly. also thats just how i do it in an actual rwd car you can push the clutch in rev it out dump it and that breaks the rear loose or use the e brake to lock the rear and that has a simallar effect

Okay I understand now! I would not expect the 1zz to do much of that. Probably more practical (and cost effective) to just get a RWD.

 

[zoomnlily]

yea but i like the corolla and the tourqy 1zz would do amazing at difting if it was in rwd. im just looking for ways to do so

It’s all about the 1zz. There is a way to make it RWD and two people have done AWD thus far. With a couple more fab work, RWD is possible but it’s ganna need a lot of work. Just look on you tube. You will see two guys with AWD.

That’s all I have on that.

Get a rear wheel drive Corolla. Problem solved.

OP wants a 1zz. You can always get a MR2 Spyder

Yeah just get an MR-S. If you start cutting apart a fwd Corolla to make it into a rwd Corolla, you’ll get it all in pieces and it’ll never get finished, ever.

Try and drift in an MR2 and you'll become acquainted very quickly with your friendly local tree.

This thread is a bad idea from start to finish

Many people (myself included) are currently unwilling to invest the time/money to create a custom drive train. I did that as a teenager (HP Chevy 396 in a Camaro) and the neverending modifications led me to conclude that I will never try that again. Of course, I would like to see what a custom drive train could do in a small car like a Corolla! I look forward to seeing your progress!
