thanks champ there has been countless hours spent on this! ill update when i get more progress :D

ok so so much progress last 4 weeks! ill let the photos do the talking! from new forged engine, clutch, front coilovers, shaved engine bay ect so exited for the next few weeks with the new ecu getting wired in and alot of other finishing off things its that one step closer :D

Thanks man I'm also getting lighter tint on the windows so the wheels don't look so dark and stand out more

So have my wheels and steam pipe manifold wrapped and sprayed in hi temp silicone spray to resist against oil dirt ect sticking to the heat wrapping and my new knuckles ☺

Thanks matt there was sooo many hours in that bay! Could of been more but how far do you go. Love the wheel tubs and towers so smoooth 😊 Full credit to my man brad clark with his small buisness static customs panel and paint down here in tassie. Such a perfectionist Oh bugger i thought I put one up was in a rush will attatch one now.. yeah so much happier with intercooler hidden 😁 So the brakes are from my old set up which was ra40 struts with a ford 285mm disc with r32 4 pot caliper and all I done was put a weld in bc br gold coilover jn it with 8kg springs I also got a new knuckle ao I can get more lock 😉 ideally id like a different set up as the stub axel is really long and sticks outside the wheel and the cap can't cover it. But I spent to much to change.

Sorry for the delay but ginally have a few photos of the new engine bay,new forged engine,gt3071r,10 inch clutch, intercooler relocation and new grill and lights, some new wheels and coilovers in the front. More progress in months to come!!Let me know your thoughts cheers

hey everyone so the last 6-9 moths stuff has finally got serious!!! from front coilovers, knuckles, shaved enginebay and remavable front, and intercooler moved behind grill, new rear brake caliper setup, new wheels and also a full forged engine! to name a few things. i havnt had much time between working to fund this and working on it myself so ill try and put some photos up of my progress when i can

hey guys along time between drinks again but I'm finally making progress with my corolla again consisting of intercooler re fitment new new grille, new pipe work new ecu hopefully coilovers in the front (pending on $$$) more body work and the engine coming out to shave n tidy up the engine bay also new wheels and rear calipers some progress has been made but will put up sneak peek photos soon as more starts happening! watch this space 😃

Yeah gettin them redrilled atm ... What speed? Not sure don't have a speedo lol

I'm going back to 4 stud so I'm changing full set up to s13 also I've got 4:11 gears in my rolla they seem bit high I had 3.5 before that which seemed little low. Would 3.7 or 3.9 be better? With 4:11 up the 1/4 mile it taps out just before the line.. That's why I thought 3.9 just to make that extra distance thoughts??

I'm going back to 4 stud so I'm changing full set up to s13

I have ea falcon rear disc n calipers on my hilux diff If your interestested in buying the set up off me as I'm going a different way now.. I'll be keeping an eye on this thread :)

Hey after a better front steering strut steering set up? I have a celica set up at the moment with bigger disc and r32 caliper conversion on it and want to maintain that set up as it cost me fair bit so I've done some reasearch and can get a coil over set up where I can lathe the strut tube off the bottom nuckle piece and simply weld it in.. Just wondering if anyone else has heard of or done a good set up? Also had rear leaves redone flipped leaf and tramp leave added its really shit ride is there anything to soften this up? I'm all ears Any info would be greatly appreciated cheers johnnyt

Woulda been a while back prob around a year n a bit ago probably was it mate yeah was a shitty mustard yellow before I painted it.. Yeah pretty good numbers hoping to get bit quicker with a few changes I'm doing in the near future =) what did your rolla get down the strip?

It was 119 mph n 192 kph :)

Was at tassie nats so while ago I'll get back to you on the mph!

Hey guys sorry been along time in between drinks... Some news I ran it down the strip n the best i managed was 11.9! Do have few changes I'm making... Changing ecu to haltech n run few more psi =) n hope to get the 1/4 time down.. Also scoping some new wheels and front suspension in the near future..

Got an award for best innovation so stoked definitely surprised a lot of big powered cars aswell as myself now for coil overs in the front n few other changes but over all I'm stoked!! I'll put up pics n vids when I start receiving them from other people :)

First day at Powercruise no major problems only radiator cap but it absolutely loves life so pumped hope too put up some pics next week!!

Yeah I don't get tramp just need too stop the pinion issue what metal needs to be use is hi tensile overkill?

That sounds like the go to me!! How do you know how long to make them n the triangle piece to bolt it on to the leaf mount? This is exactly what it feels like its so dangerous cause it like tank slaps you when it gets traction =~|

caltracs for traction for sure n maybe short stroke shocks with out a rear sway bar.. I'm thinkin more along the lines of a panhard bar to attatch the diff to the body to give it a bit more stability in the rear as i already have reset leaves with tramp leaf just need something to hold it together under full boost n angle. ill try it n see how it goes.. thanks for the link yeah paint isnt even cut n polished yet straight off the gun when it gets polished just before powercruise in 2 weeks ill put up better pics!! i just put my seats in n painted my dash ill put up some pics =) your build looks crazy so well done gonna be sweet when its done, i like ur attention to detail like shaving the flutes n the indercator in front guard looks great =)

thanks mate its just ticket over 7 years for me so it all takes time! as much as its sucks keep at it!! :) its comes on boost around 3000rpm too 3200rpm. to be honest its crazy fast but it seems really unstable when doing a skid like to much give somewhere if anyone has any ideas like diff brace kinda thing or opinions I'm all ears!

yeah as far as i experienced it not too bad will know more when i drive it as i havnt drove it much... nah i brought these wheels like 5 years ago n couldnt get the cash i wanted so i had too use them but when i get a bit more $$ they wont be on there had no other option really...

ill see if i can suss more had heaps more on my old phone till it died =/ but yeah lil bit more info aswell HKS step 1 cams dual stage boost controller new custom manifold wastegate into exhaust (bloody mod plate) haha reset rear springs with tramp leaves added (need too sag...) short shifter rocker arm stoppers can't really think of much else atm
