PHOBIA

Wow, that would be stretching the memory...... :P I think, with the bonnet, it would have been around the $3000 mark unpainted. So about $2000 for a custom kit. Front and rear bars and the side skirts.

Mate, is was actually made for me about 9 years ago by NewStyle Motorsport in Sydney. The job they did was, well, OK considering what they had to work with. Mark from Coastal Smash performed the magic through, to smooth out the ripples and make it fit right. I have seen the same style of kit getting around on a few later model corolla's, so I guess someone still has the mold for it. ;)

Somebody say my name...... ;)

That you would have mate. Me and my cars have spent alot of time at Coastal Smash over the years. Mark, the owner is a good freind of mine. ;) Thanks for your support.

There 18 x 8.5 with 215/35 series tires. I haven't even rolled the guards and I can tuck rim on both the front and back. B) Offset is your friend. If your wheels are rubbing, I would have to say you need to correct the offset on your rims, either through spaces or machining, depending on which way you need to go!

What what what..... Sorry to hijack, but what's doing benny boy??? :o

Thanks mate, it's tough to keep it fresh in this scene. Keep up the good work. ;)

Yeah, the 85 would be the same. Enjoy your Rona mate..... ;)

No 100 series, but I do have an 80 Series..... Just a 4 inch lift with 35's, set up for touring more than rock climbing, but still very at home offroad. B)

Ummm, awesome.... That is all.... Nah, seriously, I love what you’re doing mate, and the 1UZ's do sound awesome..... Can't wait to see the finished product. B)

Good to hear. Im looking forward to it..... B)

Thanks for the kind words guys. I’ve owned the corona for over 12 years now, so yeah, I guess it's been around for a while. B) Yeah Benny, im going to be at Newcastle AS this year. I've missed the last 2 years for one reason or another and I am really looking forward to getting back into my local event. You bring the Rolla along?

Just thought I would introduce myself. My name is Nathan or Nath as most call me, and this is PHOBIA, my 1986 Toyota Corona. The Corona has been in the family since new. I actually purchased this exact car of my Nan in 1996 with no intentions of building it into what you see here today. Things just got a little carried away, as they do..... Anyway, here are a few recent pics of PHOBIA, the current specs sheet and a link to the full build up pages on the Toymods board. There is also a link to some more pics from the HOT4's photo shoot for the feature in issue number 152, June 2007. Anyway, fire away with any questions you have, and make sure you come say geday if you see me out and about. Enjoy.
