68krolla Posted March 24, 2011 Author Report Posted March 24, 2011 Thanks mate, these wheels were the first modification i decided on really, they look sooooo tough. I am probably going to leave them black and paint a red lip around the outside and get some white walls. I still need to get the stainless trim rings to but there not that important at the moment.

68krolla Posted March 27, 2011 Author Report Posted March 27, 2011 this thing is going to be a beast whats the plans for the engine? I'm going to use the standard internals on the block but i will get the whole thing rebuilt with new bearings and seals. I will have some slightly more aggressive cams and bigger injectors. The turbo at the moment will be replaced by a new Small Garret t28 bb turbo. I want the car to have good power and response but nothing to outrageous. Almost an engine built for daily driving. It will have some luxury features like aircon and electric windows, so I'm not going for the 10sec lightweight beast , I'm aiming for nice weekender to cruise around in. Quote

Thanks alot bAKER, I would be more than happy to show anybody on here just a pity that your on the other side of Australia. When its done i would love to come over and cruise with some of the other rollaclub guys. Its also good to see how many other members approve of my wheels. I spend 1/2hr out of my day just looking at them. Quote
68krolla Posted March 30, 2011 Author Report Posted March 30, 2011 A couple of teasers for you all!!! 1 Quote
drift freak Posted September 12, 2011 Report Posted September 12, 2011 Wow, awesome build mate .I have only just been put onto this thread by Jordan :) I'm really keen to see how your front end turns out. Is there recent pics of how you mounted the radius rods??? I too have the Hopper Stopper kit but after talking to Davros I asked them to add an extran 4mm to the inner bearing carrier on the hub to push the rear of the mounting face away from the lca. After lots of thinking I'm really keen to see how this works out as I need acollapsible column and KE70 r&p seems the way to go with the column also. Keen to see some updated photos mate but hey keep up the good work. Quote

I went to Europe for 2-months and spend every last penny to my name as you do. I have to adjust my LCA brackets but if anybody wants some just let me know and i will get extra cut. I did consider getting a nut spacer for the hopper stoppers kit but 4mm is not enough clearance for my personal liking. I will be posting some updates soon i hope. Good to see everyone getting alot of progress done. Declan. Quote
ro11in#22 Posted September 15, 2011 Report Posted September 15, 2011 Hey mate count me in for a set Jst let me know a price if you want a set of corolla 1200 badges i have some Quote

Might be able to help with chrome strips that run around outside of car ( just not sure what colour I'm going to paint it as that will determine wether I keep the strips or not) pics, pics, pics :) Quote
