Hi guys,
Well where do i start?!
After waiting 5 long years i finally have another corolla to play with, My first car was a ke55 which i purchased of its original owner, had a 4k in it converted to 5 speed, only done 70000kms with log books, i mean this thing was immaculate, at the time i was doing engine reco as an apprentice so i started building a 4agze supercharged over turbo for it, all my apprentice pay was going onto my baby. spent 15 months building and working and building and working on it till doom day happened, i was out in the city one night having the time of my life with my mates when i returned home someone had taken at it with a sledgehammer (a case of mistaken identity) and the car was ridden off :((( to this day i don't know who did it or why but if i find them god help them. After 3 days i finally came out of my room and sold my semi built motor to a mate as i was just that devestated,broke and the insurance company giving me a $900 pay out (bullshit market value) didnt make me feel any better, Hopefully ill find some old photos of the baby and put them up.
After 5 years of going through family/job/health issues i can finally say i have a new girl in my life, A 1971 ke25 corolla. There is a couple of spots of rust but f#%k all. My plan is to put a 4agze which i brought with computer for $500 (with spun bearing) in it running either a celica or supra box, This is where my questions come in, I know you have probably heard alot of people asking what they should do and it probably might get annoying to most of you but i would really like a hand or tips on the best way to go with front/running gear, ive got a few things in mind like ae86 struts with power steering arm and t3 ball joint adaptor etc etc but obviously tips are gonna help me big time, also what engine mounts will be easiest to modify to fit the 4agze into the 25? i was thinking a hilux lsd diff to but hear they are very hard to convert?
Thats all for now but ill be updating this space with pics tonight of what ive done so for, mainly just tidy up with paint (had ugly pin stripes through it) and interior (trims etc)
Any help will be greatly appreciated boys and girls.
Happy rollin :dance:
