Mint..
id be grabbing some cool jap wheels, some 14x7s or 8s (something to fit under stock gaurds well) ajps springs and kyb shocks... get that bad boy down a bit... keep the sun-shade on the rear window or even cut it so its only the top one, (as a little wing)
Nice clean start dude

ps i have some ssr meshies that would look prime on this for sale
and you will need either ae86 front struts/brakes or t18 when you lower it which will allow you to go coilover or normal springs/shocks.
they will also suit ae86 ps which will give you more lock ( Helps with parking)

The SSR Meshies aren't on eBay are they? I'm looking at a set of white SSR Speed Star's, 14x6.5 with a +5 offset. Not too sure on what offset i should be looking for?
Sorry dude, I'm clueless. What are t18's?
Yeah, the rear window shade idea is sweet. Was thinking the same thing. Cutting it up as a rear wing.
Cheers for the help!
Is a t18 a 2 door rolla?
t18s (or te72) are pretty much a corolla. they came in 2 door hatchback in australia, have a 3tc 1.8ltr engine, t 50 gearbox and t series diff (which has lsd options) only downside to them was the steering box and looks that 90% of the population hate. haha
Tidy looking car!
No question is too silly, most of the time it would have been covered somewhere by someone so searching here and google is your friend.
Awesome, it's frustrating knowing what i want. But rolla's are unknown territory for me. Haha, all the models & engine numbers.. etc.. Yeah dude, researching like hell. Getting on all the forums, this one, KE70.com, rollaclub, toymods and drift forums etc.
Good to know man, I try and do as much research as I can before i ask. Just hanging to get this car looking sweet. Cheers again!
Just a quick few pictures of my previous ride.
