  1. Might come drop by for abit. Been having kebabs cravings, cant remember the last time i had one
  2. Negative Jay. Somebody is already keen on them and most likely going to take them off me soon, sorry to disappoint!
  3. Unfortunately I've decided to put the corolla back to stock. All after market parts will be up for sale such as coilovers, sway bar, tail lights etc. let me know if you want any!
  4. So its back! Picked the car up this weekend and man it feels good to be back in it. The car is alot more smoother and responsive :D Haven't drove it at its full potential yet since I've got to drive the engine but it does feel alot better then before. There were few problems when it was being engine was being disassembled. When the car was converted to 20v, they didn't bother changing to oxy wire so i was running a single wire instead of a 4 wire which made the car run rich the whole time. It was also running a silvertop flywheel instead of the blacktop one so that was replace with a lighten flywheel. Trumpets were using the wrong bolts making them not sit completely flat with the surface and a few other minor problems. I was lucky enough to send the car to get rebuild before these gave up! If i took the car out for another track day, or drove it for any longer my engine would of went bye bye! Quick run down what was done: stock rebuild - seals, rings, bearings trd head gasket porting exhaust manifolds replaced gearbox heavy duty clutch and lighten flywheel replace tie rods + rack boots
  5. Bit of a update. 11-01-13 My paint was pretty much dull on every panel so had some spare time at work and gave it a cut and polish. Looks like it just had a fresh paint job! here are some before and after shots Sorry for the bluryness! and the finish product As for now, I haven't drove the car for 2 weeks now :( Its in the process of getting a rebuild and will post further details later when I get it back
  6. sad days :( did he fit in your fixback?
  7. Could work but wouldn't want to run of the track with them :(
  8. Cars going to get rebuild soon! got pretty much everything ready. Gasket kit, piston rings, trd head gasket, replacement gearbox, h/d clutch and other minor things. Decided to buy another set of wheels, not sure what I'll do with them
  9. Selling a set of Ferderal 595 RSR 195/50/14 Price: $400 Bought these brand new just under 2 months ago and only been use for 1 track day, still got heaps of tread left. pick up from greenvale or meet half way
  10. Dem fronts are looking boss! Thinking of coming up with the other guys, so I "may" come up but see how I go
  11. Cheers for the photos! Took the car to Winton last week. Manage to get a new pb 1:51.1410 which was .7 seconds faster, I'm too lazy to post up the rest of my times. Really wanted to get under the 50's though I was having trouble getting near the 50's. Think I'll need to grow some balls to brake later and harder, also improving my driving lines on some turns. Had problems with my ride height as well, I raised it 1cm all round and the rears turned out to be a little higher which was giving me abit of oversteer around the corners. Next track day won't be till next year, as I've got a few plans for the car which includes rebuild engine and replace what ever is worn out in the suspension system. few pics for now
  12. haha i dont know if my car make it up there :P
  13. Update! So finally got around putting the series 2 brakes in and man do they bite! along with the fluid, hoses, rotors and pads. Have now got my tyres on the tom's. Set for winton this sunday. They are Federals RSR's 195/50/15, hoping to try break into the high 40's! :D The car has been blowing blue smoke for awhile and its getting worse which is worrying me, as of what it could be, valve seals or piston rings, deciding what to do with it after track day. Hoping that its the seals, but we'll just have to wait and see.
  14. sounds like you need me there...no homo haha kidding I'm good with 11am. The more earlier the more better for me.
  15. down for 14th! as long as its around 12 noon or so. As for track, I'm not too fuss since I haven't been there before, so any
  16. I think we should bring spare clothes just incase!
  17. looks good jeff, cant wait to see it this sunday
  18. Thanks everyone! If I ever sell them...? Buy adapters to 4x100 and fit them on your chaser, trololo. Justin, new seat is amazing! Makes me feel more confident around corners and does feel more comfortable than the standard seat.
  19. Just a wax sponge and wax. Solid colours tend to wax up well especially reds though the down fall is that they fade back. Heres the rest of the photos I took, enjoy!
  20. time to take it for some airport runs!
