Jordain Posted September 25, 2012 Report Posted September 25, 2012 I wish......... 1GR-FE ... oneday after the KE10 Beams is done Swapped my Datsun 1200 for a overrated little KE20. Well the plans for it are simple... just clean the body up more, find some overrated stock front seats, peal the sticker bomb off the dash, paint the dash black, find a good condition dash pad, fix all the instruments... Best modification so far was Air horns and twisted the window washer to the side to squirt people haha! Quote

Jordain Posted October 5, 2012 Author Report Posted October 5, 2012 Mine and a Mates Ke11.... :) Old original shock vs the new short stroke shock... sooo good.. Time to reset the leaf springs and make some coilovers for it. Quote
Jono.C Posted October 5, 2012 Report Posted October 5, 2012 The factory shocks never go that high though Quote
Jordain Posted October 9, 2012 Author Report Posted October 9, 2012 The factory shocks never go that high though What's the length of a standard shock... your telling me that those shocks aren't standard when they've got Toyota stamped into them... Those shocks are just super short... it's on the bumpstop constant atm..... a bit lower than in the pics haha. Well i'm at a point in this Corollas life where I've got a decision to make... 4age or 7K I can get a 4age into it and running for about $1500..... that's fuel, wiring, motor, box, hydraulic clutch set up, tailshaft, brake upgrade all covered. It will take about a week to do.... I've picked up another KE20 to mock it all up so the car's off the road for a weekend. I've got an RX3 LSD diff i'll put in when I break the factory diff.. BUT I feel bad.... as the car's original, so what's everybodys opinion... 4a or a 7k Quote

Yep, this is what i mean, cheers. Bit of an upgrade though either way Quote
