Fusebox and the res of the loom are now in the car , i really want to tidy it up now but as much as im anal about tidiness i want to wait until the engines in and running before i start making it really neat as i need to be sure it's all functioning as it should.

Preety stoked with the progress thus far and ill definatly be posting another lot of pictures very very shortly , looking to put the bulk of the dash etc back together and get working on a little piece to hold my boost gauge in place but not look silly or out of touch with the original aspect of the car , considering how immaculate the inside is and how standard im keeping it i hate the idea of having anything but i see the boost gauge as something vital in the cars day to day running. I would have possibly liked an oil pressure gauge also but other than that i am stoked , can't beat those massive amber instruments!

I also recieved some more suspension components this week with Twinky sending me some low km KYB front struts to match the rears , now to find some springs and the next phase of the suspension work , or spending will commence.

And to top things off a huge purchase this week with a new car coming home with me at some point in the next 5 days , hoping for monday but im not 100%

of course a Toyota and ofcourse a Corolla:

2003 Preface Toyota Corolla Sportivo

Metallic Blue

Black Leather Interior with all the goodies

King Lows

Stock Wheels etc

42,000km

It's coming from an older Toyota Enthusiast so ill be very proud to take her under my wing!

A MASSIVE thanks to Andy ( Blind Kid Seeks ) For scouting the car out for me and really helping me find the right one ( went through a fair few phone calls ) . Pictures when it happens.

As for now pics of twink will suffice!! -

If it's the one out of Tim's car Witzl did you should be OK

It is that loom from the white hatchback mate, any reason why it's not a good idea? ive got an entire spare AE82 twincam loom with fuse box etc sitting here.
