So ... still not registered yet but i have done a little more on the car ... the seats in it were absolute rubbish .. to warn and dirty.. so after a mate found an SR5 AE95 at the pickos we preceded to remove some parts.. my car now has SR5 front and rear seats , a really mint boot carpet with all of the button clips still intact and the factory roof box... loving the little upgrades .. has made it alot cooler! .. also scavanged a tacho cluster but need to wire a tacho feed from the ECU up to the plug as it's missing ( stingy buggers at toyota ) haha ... Moar shortly! Pics of shocks and also tyres for rims ... cheap cheap cheap!!

That's one hell of a sunglasses compartment haha :lol:

Looks like it opens from both directions??

First and foremost - total respect to Blind Kid Seeks and Bway for coming along today and helping every step of the way!

crook as a dog today but still managed to get down to the pickos and score some much needed parts for the Wags!

We now have front king springs from an ST162 Celica and rears from a Falcon.. All up the grand total was $64 for the four coils ... lovley!

I also found an SX front lip so i took that but the bastards a little to long so ill either trim it or throw it at a group of random people at some point...

The kicker was my mates and i decided to check out a Hyundai sports wagon for a retractable rear blind ... and hello ladies for $30 i scored a minto item to hide all my sick subs and tubs of Garlic sauce in the boot..

Some modification and shes all sorted , all thats left to do is put some hooks up the rear of the boot so that the blind has something to be held by and maximum security is mine!

Looks very very cool!

More stat!

Nice haul for sure, any chance of trimming the middle of the spoiler to fit? or is it the sides that are too long ?

Back in the day there was one of these wagons in my area, two tone blue/silver ,lowered with Casino's....Just saying :ph34r:

Posted

Farkkk!!! Casinos on a wags!! might have to put them on for a photo!! ... it requires trimming on the sides which sucks... might need a whole bar..

Posted (edited)

Weird, didn't look like the front was much different from an SX bar...

I mean apart from the lip of course

Loved it Mick! Awesome seeing it in the flesh! :)

Posted

so clean. all that hard work getting on the road paid off! esp when u had to drive to frankston to rego it! :)

Strange that the front lip didn't fit, I would have thought that Seca and Wagon bumpers were identical.

Are you still going to use the SX lip?

Posted

Cheers kents, I thought that the lip would have fitted but the wagon front bars are shorter than a seca / hatch / sedan bumper bar. Instead ive fitted a late 80's intergra front lip .. preety happy with how she sits right now .. the car needed a few things for roady but it's now registered ... I drove it home from Vicroads and the lads came around and we had her lowered and the new wheels fitted that night ... Changes the whole persona of the car ... the thing I appreciate the most is alot of older guys really seem to like her ... I love this thing and it can only get better from here .

Ive also fitted AE95 SR5 front and rear seats , SX seca series I door trims , SX Leather steering wheel and gear knob, shes got a full stereo with speakers in the factory roof box location and a kebab woofer for the ladies.

Does not scrub at all but does ride on bump stops like a boss! We have also already used it to move a fridge which fitted in nice and easily ...

Last week i took the car out on a road trip ... not only does it return amazing economy but it sits on the highway beautifully , very smooth but bouncy ride up to the border of VIC and NSW to see family and friends , i did 850km and it cost me less than $100 in fuel. Got a few plans for it soon but eventually ill be bolting a 20V or something in it , I love it !

Update: Painted the inners on the headlights black to make the car a little angrier.. definitely succeeded ... she looks quite mean now. Also massive thanks to Hiro for the awesome AE101 JDM underseat tray that went straight in on my passenger seat after a date with the drill! Looks great and it's hella handy for storing ,,,, well .. you'll see!! I also got given this Tacho from my housemate and on the basis that it was free fitted it up.. not a fan of gauges in cars at all but i have never owned a car without a Tacho.. so it's in and unfortunatly changes colours ... watch out ladies! your all going to froth at the gash when you witness the fitness of the mighty rainbow Tachohhhh!

Nice work mick. That tray is as handy as cup holders... WANT!

Posted

AE10x JDM items are boss!!

This thing looks great mick!! Looks so practical and just generally awesome! A surf board on the roof would go nicely with the car aye, just like the skateboard in the back does... :D

And nice homo rainbow tacho bro, how many chicks has it pulled so far?

Posted

I was hoping that the tray wouldn't require much mods to work, but fitting perfectly without any mods is awesome. Shows how much Toyota does (or doesn't) change stuff between models :P

Now just fill it with frangers...

Posted

Cheers lads , will show you whats in it shortly!
