topstage do not have rights to use the mould and they no longer produce the lip they are now made in adelaide and the improvement in the fit and finish is significant

thanks youre a champ!

I suppose i better make a post here. I'm back on the forum as a normal member, a member of the scene, most of you know i go driving and to meets quite a bit. No sales, just driving. Yes I'm a business, and have been doing it for 5 years. Next door have been there a couple weeks and i was on holidays at the start of january. Hence why they said i wasnt a business, because they had never met me. I'm back at work now if you want to come down again. 5 years, doing this 90% solo, its been tough at times. When your range is very large but the customer base is quite small sometimes things slip through. Not something I'm proud of, and i always endeavor to end every transaction amicably or compensate if there is an issue. A lot of this has been a huge learning curve, not to mention being f@$ked over and ripped off by suppliers and members. Still I persist for the love of toyotas. Now the majority of corollas have got some AJPS parts in them, ive changed the way i do a lot of things and am keeping a lot more stock. I would like to think ive raised the standards of corolla parts and made a lot of rare parts much more accessible while supporting local jobs. Its hard to please everyone, and everyone has a story for every business. Its been tough, but I'm still here and when i see cars around using my parts either on the street or at the track, it brings a smile everytime. I'm glad irokin has let me back on. I wont be selling on here. Hence the name change. Anyway. Cheers

few of the DC boys will be keen

22re + t FTW that is all J pipe T28 :-)

tough!

^^ lol! quick fix and get back into it! car looks good also where was the short shifter from?

throw your stock struts in the bin and get something 2 inch, ie - ae86, te72, xt130, etc pedders/monroe etc is junk for what you want

ae71 panel vans FTW put jdm ae86 vented rotors and calipers on there, should be sweet

actually the motor set up cost about $1000 including EVERYTHING! brand new bottom end, exhaust, turbo, fabrication etc etc it passes 4age cars like they are standing still 4agte is coming soon tho but to do that I'm going to have to flog my parts all over rolla club and bump my warn level up

oi turbo it! check my members rides for details

race car? or drag car? it would be a hard and homosexual conversion... prolly spend 6 months getting it running for it to pop a head gasket if you wanted to build some abortion sport sedan, first come up with $300,000+ then mid mount it if you want it to corner, put your idea to bed... good night

i know it was a coupla pages back but i COMPLETELY agree with mulblezzzz every ca18 i know of has spun bearings or blown headgaskets ca18 FTL :dance: :abuse: people are like bang for buck, they are cheap, thats because they are junk unless they have been built seriously they are shit better in design than the sr and they seem to rev better f@$k my 4ac turbo held together better than most ca's 4agze ftw!

the bend off the turbo is all fixed now :) more mods soon

check ae86 driving club for updates, but i have been busy!

hi mate been flat out going through pms tonight, the front shocks are to suit the 2 inch strut (ae86, corona, sillycar, t18) i can source some bilstein to suit the ke70 crap but it makes sence to upgrade i will explain in pm also i sincerely hope you didnt order king springs.. you will be dissapointed

16 degrees camber1 lol there is no point running so much camber with stock suspension and crap tyres, but yeah 4ac turbo ftw

the maroon ke30 is utterly homosexual the end

my 4ac revs to 6500, makes loads of torque, and it hasnt broken its not ideal, but its cheap and effective

don't listen to what most people say about the 4ac.... mostly they say stuff becuase there is an easily available alternative... and they arent weak, 20psi and it still didnt explode

yeah the diff was welds letting go in diff an rattling around in there still drivable

$500 for the turboing rose joints = adjustment = more track and camber and zero movement and bush deflection there are pics on ae86 driving club

i have pics on my phone if someone i can mms em to lol, my digi cam is fuxored lol

well well well just went for my first drive in it this week!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! f@$k me!!! seems to be making about 80-90rwkw, 4ac turbo using a single off a cozmo 13b... quite responsive, wheel spinning in 3rd..... can't wait for the weekend... pics coming.. :lmao: :D i can't believe how good it is, considering COMPLETELY stock motor, with 21X,XXX kms, rattles n shit, with a Jpipe off the stock manifold big props to J-tech Madaz motorsport

i entered in super drift round 1 so ill be stripping the interior, sound deadening, hopefully a seat, some welding, might chuck my larger radiator in there, should be good
