  1. Can you post a picture of your car? It doesn't sound like an AE92. They only came in sedan or hatch. If it's a 4wd Wagon it's an AE95. Any suspension place will be able to provide you with replacement stocks/springs/bushes. What exactly do you want to know?
  2. What are the widths of a standard diff vs this one?
  3. I saw that as well, never knew it was your car Kevin. Was that a JDM spec bigport that made 70 odd kw at the wheels? Mine has only made 53.6 :yes: PM me about that motor if you've had a chance to clean your shed out , I only just remembered :lol:
  4. 2 coils taken out. 15 inch rims. Ride is slightly firmer, feels great to me, handles a bit better as well.
  5. Take your money here: - http://spja.com.au/parts/ajps_coilovers.asp and send me the $50 you save for their top of the line ones, or the $450 you save on the bottom ones, and still have a far superiour product.
  6. There's also a guy on ebay in qld that does em for $60 posted. I've gotten 2 off him so far.
  7. It sucks but really, what do you expect the police to do about it? They're flat out trying defect people and fine you for doing 10 kms over the limit, not to mention the drug dealers, murderers and rapists. I had 2.5k worth of stereo gear stolen, the didn't even come out. My mate had his car covered in newspaper and set on fire, then sat up all night waiting for them to show up and take a report. The really give no fark for personal property damage/theft these days. The question you should be asking youself is who do you know that may be unhappy with you and is capable of doing low shit like this to your car? If it's happened more than once it's unlikely it's random.
  8. Head down to your local paint shop they should have metal polishing kits with cloth attachments for your drill, and 2 or 3 different polishing compounds. Then finish with autosol. The drill bit attachments really take a lot of the hard work out of it. Still time consuming though. Here's my before and afters :cool:
  9. Well I'll be copying your two tone paint scheme idea, sorry about that, but there's really no other way to make it look nice :) Have been out playing around today she's not running the best. Compression on cyl 3 is almost non existent. Am gonna have a crack at a home made short shifter and put all new bushes in, almost a better workout than the rowing machine at the gym atm. Will be prepping/painting myself for my first go at it with the help of a mate. At the moment looking at Commodore blue down the bottom or maybe gunmetal grey. Will knock up a few photoshops with rims and stuff when I sell my SS and make a start. I'll be using some of the proceeds of that to put a GZE in my 71 so the wagon will eventually end up with something, whether it's my rebuilt bigport with s/c setup after the 71 goes turbo or another gze/20v not sure yet. Interior I want to pimp out a bit with 19 or 22" lcd monitor dropping down from the roof with mattress setup in the back for trips away. Mainly going to be my daily so I don't want to go full house on it just yet. Just get it neat and reliable then focus my attention on diff/motor/susp for the 71.
  10. Doh I really should check this section more often. I missed out. :) When's the next rad rollaz cruise on? oh and Kevin, you inspired me on the last one. Picked this up for a new daily on Saturday, will be painting her in a month or so and a few other bits and pieces.
  11. Not much too understand. He's trying to insinuate that because I have a picture of Russell Crowe from Romper Stomper as my avatar that I'm a racist/skin head/nazi. I like it for the tattoo numb nuts but feel free to jump to a few more conclusions, let's not allow people to appreciate things for their artistic merit rather than subject matter. I guess by watching movies with extreme violence, drugs and murder I'm supporting that as well? I'm also far from racist, I lived in Thailand from 94 - 97 so would of had a hard time over there if I hated Asians. Go back to starting your car without a dizzy teeny boy. *** Sorry for the hijack OP
  12. Doesn't fit the majority of people's taste on here styling wise, nor mine but at least you've done an engine swap. Scuse my ignorance but can someone explain the plates to me? If you're a young guy on the central coast I'd imagine such a car would be acquiring you large amounts of lady friends :)
  13. Flick em my way Mick and I'll edit them up with some tunes etc. I'm still learning with the new software I got but should have a couple of vids from WSID last night up in the next day or two... First quick one: - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PjBj_9CoeuQ btw site name is registered, just gotta start on the design when I get a chance ;)
  14. Mine was the green 71. Yikes! Not good mate, I hope the damage isn't too bad. I was dreading something like that on the way out there. Justin, PM me yo! I got a short video of the wagon cranking the bags as well if the owner wants me to put it on youtube...
  15. Crash? Oh noes! :) Was good to meet you all. Unfortunately I had to work this arvo, I'll make sure I get the day off for the next one. Highroller - No close up pics of my car?
  16. Can't wait. Stuck at work on a day like this FTMFL!!!
  17. I'm sure you'll update with pics once done, cause I'm interested to see what the fitment is like. I'm after a similar style wheel but am thinking 15" maybe... Would like to go at least 7 if not 8-9 wide :D I've got refurbed 15x6 +20 WEDS atm and they're two skinneh :)
  18. I'd be down for a couple but not in the font they're in now. Could we maybe get some done the same as the site banner? No offence but these look like a childs fingerpainting. :)
  19. Ok I'm in. Work is dead as today so my mate is covering. I'll detailing the 71 tonight. See you all there. My cars the greeny sort of colour and I'm rocking black WEDS rims and dark dark tint.
  20. Woohoo! What's the specs of the wheels?
  21. Car looks great mate. Needs to be lower ASAP!!! Get a grinder out or something :) I was going to suggest you paint your headlight surrounds black as well but I see you've got quads going in. Where do you source your jap stuff from (new end caps especially?)
  22. Yeah can we get a roll call to see who's attending? I'm interested and it's supposed to be great weather but I'm not gonna do the dodge with work if there's two people turning up...
  23. Can I still get a pirce anyway wiithout the supercharger belt? I've got a mate over here that's a machinist but he refuses to do a kit for me at the moment. Might be easier to twist his arm later on down the track for just the supercharger pulley. I'm not familiar with the process and he explained it a bit to me today, how the CNC needs to be setup etc for the job so if it's a whole different pulley to the ones you guys are getting I won't worry about it. Maybe try and organise a GE group buy later on...
  24. Yeah I don't really know of anyone else that would want one as I'm only new to most of the corolla forums. I've got a 16v bigport at the moment but was hoping the gze would be the same as I'm swapping to one down the track.
