Will get more pics up soon, just finished sandblasting my wheels they were painted black which looked crap so they look alot better now, I have to get a new diff because the one in it is screwed,any recommendations for that would be good and I've also got to fix the rust which I'll get some pics of soon.

hey mate nice car, welcome to the club you'll be able to find heaps of info and help around the place. :)

Thanks do you have any ideas for the car?

Cool car. Let’s see some more pics of it. How about some pics of the wheels? -before / after?

You are asking us for ideas on what to do to your car?!?! -I recommend looking around at other peoples build threads and seeing what you like about each of them. Then, you can put together a plan for your own car to make it suite your taste. I look forward to seeing more pics of your 75' :)

(you can look at my beater for ideas \/ in sig.)

[madkp61]

Picture less update.. But my wheels are coming along well. Tried alittle bit of polish on them and it looks overrated super shinny. Well next thing on the list for the 30 is a new diff... What sort of options do I have????

[madkp61]

what diff can i run????? HELP

[madkp61]

Bump some please help me??????

If you can do the work a diff / axle from an AE86 can fit. You would have to convert your car to link, or convert the axle to leaf. If you are doing that much work you might as well go with a celica one that has lsd and can handle a lot more power.
