not to sure as the oil rings are leaking so dnt really wanna dyno it as yet, but it pulls nicely, as 4 the gze, theres something better coming once i get a few things tidied up

[D'Ice]

niiiiiiiiiice :D :D :D u should come show it off at one of the meets... all u see these days are ZZ corollas... bring on the "oldskool" lol

[IAN20V]

hell yeh in the plans wen its back on the road in the next week or 2, will b good to see some nice zze's though i havent seen many modded ones

[saintz01]

nice ride ! great brakes !

how much did the brakes set you back??

[IAN20V]

um i think about 1200 from memory, the fronts were $400 discs, pads and rebuild calipers but the rears i had drums on b4 so it was a full conversion

[IAN20V]

ok got a bit of an update, new coilovers came today so i put them in, also added the whiteline rear swaybar last weekend as well as a few other little bits n pieces

pillow mounts

installed in the fronts

how the front sits, can maybe go a lil lower

how the rears currently sittin, gota go up 40mm though

will be raisin the rears tommorow, take it for a spin and more pics

[Rolla Boy]

Nahhhhh, should leave it slammed man :) :) :) ...

[IAN20V]

man i sooo wanna leave it like it was but where there exhaust kicked up to the cannon was 60mm off the ground

hey awsome car

very clean :D

[Steve Nguyen]

Hey. ive got the same car as you, and im interested in doing the 20valve conversion aswell.

i was just wondering wat where the major problems that you encountered while doing the conversoin?

Did you have to chance the wiring loom from the compter to the dash cluster?

is your pwr steering and ac all hooked up?

[IAN20V]

hey mate no major problems with the conversion as the silvertop is outta the ae101 levin it pretty much swaps all over but the factory ancilliaries such as power steering and a/c wont bolt up to the 20valve, u should be buying a front cut as all the 20v's p/s and a/c will bolt up to your steering rack/a/c lines ect. i got jim(sideshows performance wiring) to wire it up for me, 600 bucks but only four - five hours for him to do it and he done a very neat job.

oh ok yeh, im definatly buying a front cut to save the hassle of running around and sourcing all the parts. Ive found a front cut complete with engine loom and computer. Does it just plug straight in and start up? or do you have to do the wiring from the engine computer to the Dash cluster so all the lights work and stuff eg. oil pressure light and engine temperature etc.

[IAN20V]

yeh you need to use the 20v ecu and harness and wire it into the cars original harness in two locations, the first one is near the engine bay fuse box where there's a bunch of wires going into the front guard, the second is near the ecu below the dash , again a bunch of wires going up to the guage cluster ect. as for the sensors, u use the 20v harness and ecu so all sensors ect work fine, as i said previously i used sideshow for the wiring as he's wired up a million of these before and is quite good at what he does.

[vivioman]

nicely done. the wheels set the kit off nicely. nice brakes too.

Hey, I was on D2s before on my camry, but have since removed them as I am planning to sell the car..

how they riding?

oh ok, ill probably give them a call. ill upload some pics once im done haha but mine wont be as hectic as yours. im planning just do engine conversion, rear brake disc conversion and dump abit. THanks a bunch Ian

Good on you for modifying an AE101 Corolla .. not many on the road and a decent motor conversion at that !

Did a blown motor necessitate the conversion or had you always wanted the conversion done ?

[RO11AS]

hey mate nice ride!!

What year is the engine and what year is your car ?

Cause last time i wanted to do a conversion i was advised i couldnt go ahead due to the engine being older than the car chasis.

no worries mate anytime g/l with your conversion

a lil from both there, always wanted to do it and the 4afe wasn't goin so well

mine's a 97, same chassis the 20 vlave silvertop came out of, as for the engine being older than the chassis rule, never heard of anything as such but i may be wrong, as aw11 mr2 4agze can be engineered into my car

[Steve Nguyen]

Hey Sorry to bother you again, do you happen to have sideshows performance wiring phone number? Also im thinking of putting better shocks into mine, so there less body roll. Any suggestions of what brand Budget is 600 for shocks

[IAN20V]

yeh mate it's 0415 904 947, or try here http://www.sideshowsperformancewiring.com....hp?categoryid=1

as for the struts i've only had coilovers apart from the stockers so i cant make any reccomendations from experience but as far as i knoe kyb struts are a good bet.
