Well just to let you guys know that we received everything as planned and will be working on Gerardo's MR2 and my Alltrac the next few weeks. There are not enough words of gratitude on how ATS has help us by sharing their experience and providing us with the most beautiful and high quality parts we have ever seen. I'm not sure if I will be dyno tunning my car (alltrac) since there's only one Dyno here in Venezuela and it's 2wd. But I'm sure Gerardo will have his graphics to brag about..je..je

You're very welcome Richard. Glad we could help out.

There is a switch on the ST185 transmission to put the car into front wheel drive mode. That allows use of a 2WD dyno.

Best regards,

Ken

K I know about the switch but there is no information about how much it can take in 2wd mode. Remember I´m installing the GT3076R with all the necessary upgrades, so perhaps 450-500 hp could be too much.

Thanks again

Richard

Congrats, definitely let us know how it goes. There are several of us recently going with the GT3076R in the community.

JA...JA...thats good to know

PS- during a dyno session how many times is it necessary to rev the car to red line? or is it common?
I have dynoed my car twice and every time my tunner revs it to red line and fuel cut occurs I get cramps....

It all depends on the tuner, and how many maps you are making. I would say at least 10-15 pulls. Bear in mind, Toyota's red line, like everything else on these cars, is VERY conservative. I routinely revved my stock motor to 7500RPM without any problem at all.

I just wanted to add an update to the power holding ability of a st185 tranny/tcase in 2wd mode. We finally broke it @ the 500 hp level. There is a small collar that moves when you select 2wd or 4wd mode. in 2wd mode that collar has to hold one side of the front Diff stationary to transmit 100% power to the front wheels. We twisted it apart. But the car did make many runs at the 400 hp level without a problem, and that collar had tons of miles on it. The new one may be plenty capable of holding the power but I wouldn't want to bet an engine removal on it. So High HP all-tracs are dyno'd in 4wd mode only, around here.

"We finally broke it @ the 500 hp level. There is a small collar that moves when you select 2wd or 4wd mode."

Thanks Scott for the update. If you are refering to the diferential sleeve, well I broke mine last year. Took the alltrac down from the dyno and went for a spin...forgot to put it back to 4wd

So now my car has a new one and with the help of my (gt3076r

) I´m hopping for 450 bhp. There´s no 4wd dyno in my country

Best Regards

Richard

Do you have any pictures of the GenIV? I'd like to build a little information on this generation of 3SGTE.
