  1. hey guys i want to lower my ke35 by about one inch, but i don't want to cut the springs, or flip the leafs as i want a stiffer suspension, was wondering if anyone has bought new springs lowers that are a bit stiff and could give me the name of the spring and info and for the rear, i real don't know what to do , get new lear springs, or get these reset or use 1inch lowering blocks ? whats your view guys ?
  2. i did it, and i used some spacers on the front engine mounts, had to weald a plate on top of the current bracket on the chassis to lift the engine about 1cm... fits perfect. Hold the engine in place to its spaced up to whatever space you want [mines about 8mm] and then pack the front mounts with spacers [larger washers about 1cm thick] OR do what i did, weald a plate on top of the mound on the car to lift everything. no different parts needed
  3. hey guys just thought id let you know what i ended up doing incase anyone else needs an idea… I'm in love with this setup… the feeling of the nardi is great... Nrg slim boss D1 quick release 14.3 inch nardi leather polished all up cost me close to 380 but its something ill take with me to any corolla
  4. sorry for this really late reply mate, but i would say the easiest would be a 5k, unless your ready for a lot of modifying go a different engine such as a 4age or 2tg... if you want a quick and reasonable power upgrade 5k for sure
  5. Car is now for sale :( as you can see all the work that has been put into this car the details and price is listed in the sales forum
  6. ok sweet thanks... So mounts sorted, Do i really need to change my diff ? can i get a Tailshaft or conversion kit of some sort from the original diff to the t5O ? And what is the deal with the peddle box ? another thing is does the t5O box go straight onto the engine or do i need something between [i sure i read that somewere]
  7. Hey guys, I'm about to purchase a blacktop 4age for my corolla in replace of a 7K. To my understanding i know i haven't though about all the little things that would have to be done to make this work. I have someone that will be installing the engine with me, but has asked me to make sure i have sourced all the right parts for the RWD conversion. Looking at all the ke-7* or Ae Conversions there has been alot of things that i haven't though about ... eg peddle box. so could someone that had done a similar conversion or has appropriate knowledge help me in understanding the full procedure of this. engine: 4age blacktop Box, T5O tailshaft options ??? no idea many other things... no idea any help would be real helpful... Thanks
  8. Hey guys i was talking with a few people about buying some seats for the corolla, iv picked this BRIDE model (EURO II)... I Have organised with the dealer for rails as well so there is no problem there i just want to get some further opinion about the comfortability of these seats if anyone knows ? I use the corolla everyday drive for about 2 hours, most of it is country roads, around 100km/h whole time bendy roads (national park). To get to uni and back. Please give me any advice Thanks in advance guys :P
  9. Yeah i thought so.... Is it worth putting them on ?
  10. Hey guys i was wondering what the deal is with wheel spacers... I want my wheels to sit right inline with my body and there about 1/2 inch away... Where can i buy them from and are they safe and all ? thanks
  11. yes iv herd the xt130 strut is a common thing... I'm just not sure if i do that what else do i need to change ? if i get struts with breaks do they just hook up to my current setup ? and another thing sis the control arms... whats the deal there ? i would proffer to do up a better strut but i honesty don't know enough about it.. is there a thread where someone has done it ? haha thankyou ... do you have a tread for your car ? [is so post it] i also love this type :P id love to check yours out
  12. I am wondering if its worth doing a coil over sleeve job on my front struts, and a leaf spring reset with new shocks ?
  13. OK i did that and i can hear some wheel bearing problems i think... il firstly change them.
  14. Haha thanks I ment brand haha :) sorry should of said that
  15. Well a year ago when I redid the car all the front suspension tie rods inners and otters everything was new... I haven't touched the rear and I think that's where a bit of bumping noises and and raddled are coming from.. How do I go about rear shocks ?? And busher kit for rear ? The rear leafs have new bushels I put them in about a year ago I have no idea about the shocks :/
