    Talking 5th times the charm ;)

    hello again everyone!

    some of you might remember my last projects, the panno that had the roof attached with bog...




    since then i reshelled, cracked the shits with no where to store the car so having to refix the windscrean surround and having the GF make me do other things then fix my car




    had a parts car that was bent as and considered using it.

    then bought a supa thinking that i would never want another corolla



    then sold it to my brother because i wanted a corolla again... like an idiot hahaha

    Got a corrola for parts and a shell!

    i bought it off someone everyone knows, now just in the process of putting it together

    just a bit of a teaser

    got a trd stage 3 spec'd 4k engine off a mate CHEAP!!!! LOL (not an actual stage 3, just made to the same specs)
    and went to town on the epic paint job, to make it faster!!!!
    first the engine primer



    then EPIC COLOURS!!!




    and some more fruit




    so far the parts list are...

    Suspention:
    Panno front end and steering rack (same spec as ae86)
    lock spacer


    Driveline:
    4k lol
    keihin cvk40mm carbies
    HD clutch


    Body:
    pumped/flaired guards
    rota 9x15 -10 shokotans ( dont care i like them)

    Interior:
    Drift button
    nardi wheel (14.3" big wheel's where its at )
    Ma61 seat
    minimal interior



    just need more parts, planing on coilovers, eventualy a decent motor setup, and more suspention goodies and somewhere in there REGO

    pfft, ae86dc or nothing! ill post some pics of how gross the engine bay is tomorrow haha!
    at the end of the day its just a corolla

    and knowing my luck I've probably got some paint inside the engine, which will cause the engine to explode, taking the front of the car with it....

    Bit of an update, just spent the last few week collecting LOTS of parts and pissing my girlfriend off by storing them in her parking space in the garage haha, only a few parts needed to get the car ready to assemble. Should have many updates these holidays as i have 2 solid weeks to smash out a car.
