if your taking out the springs don't boher spending money on it haha.... trust me.
Picked up this on the weekend, a dead stock well looked after RT142 Corona SR. It runs a 22RE (2.4 SOHC EFI), W55 gearbox and borgwarner diff.
The (quite rare) SR model came with a front lip, rear wing, different tail lights and grille, leather steering wheel and red seat stipes, maybe a few other things I've forgotten or don't know about.

Goes alright, so much torque, plenty of body roll though, just about capsized her taking a corner with some gusto yesterday.
Short term plans (ie tomorrow)
Remove wind deflector
Remove tow hook
Get tyres for my 15s
Roll gaurds
Remove springs (temporary)
After that
RA60 struts converted to coilovers
Short stroke shocks
Camber tops
Strut brace
Shocks and springs for rear
Lots of Super Pro bushes
etc
Then skids
That's only temporary man, good shit will be on the way from AJPS asap, and I won't be driving it much before then, its for hard parking and photo purposes only.
And thanks Dave, email sent.

What sizes? Mint!
2.4 SR is suuuuper rare.
RT142 Estate.
AJPS.
MK3s are 15x8 -12
Streets are 15x9.5 -19
In the long term would probably like wider for the front, didn't originally want such a big variation in sizes, but when the Streets came up I couldn't refuse them, have wanted to own some for a long time.
And yes they are, thankfully the previous owner didn't realise this
bout time u got another toyota.
MOTHERFUCKING HAYASHIS. HOLY FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK.
HOW THE FUCK DO PEOPLE FIND THESE IN 15" BUT I NEVER DO.
Right, calm now.
Your car will be win. SR RT142 are rather rare and it's quite a find to grab one in good condition.
Needs black grille.
I WANT YOUR WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLLS.
You can have any brew you want... as long as it's a Datsun / Corolla / What is that?
the fact that he has all these things ticks me off.

Thanks guys I'll admit the pictures are a little flattering, but it is in quite good condition, and I plan to clean it up a bit more yet.
Javal, I pretty much bought the wheels as soon as they came up on Yahoo, really didn't want to miss them. Will be getting a black grille soon too.
Another pic of the Streets, just because:
