So I painted the wiper arms and strut brace ends today, and metal polished the middle.

Also put a new dizzy and rotor arm

You should look into an IRS setup from another car. The E11 corolla is adjustable at the back but they are all probably seized these days.


That's just sounds so expensive, the fab work involved would be nuts! I'll stick to mikeys method I think, as long as the tool maker at my work is confident doing it aha

I did the same on my daihatsu! Last bolt I needed to do was the oil feed banjo and the fucker snapped. My fault was chatting to a mate while tightening it up. Wasnt taking any notice and did it too tight. SNAP! I managed to get the rest of the bolt out of the block by hammering a Philips head screwdriver into it. Then turning.

Hoping the smoke is just all the new pipes getting hot, it looks very blue in the video but it wasn't that blue in actuality

Still gotta do a few bits tomorrow but it should hopefully be back together tomorrow

The chatter sounds so good now

Didn't even cut any of the bumper, I prefer it to be stealthy

Haven't taken many pics surprisingly, but it will be at fast show!

Well, made it to fast show and japfest in it, first shows I've been to in it, not found any pics but I haven't actively looked lol

Got snapped on my way to work though

Since then I sold the Japan racing wheels in place of getting some grids in the same specs, but since buying these I'm really enjoying the car not scrubbing, so they might be staying

Also lowered it all round too, which also made it a nightmare to get it tracked

Had to cable tie the gauges on

Three spokes!
