couple new pics with the new ta22 hubbies on, n got the whitewalls done this morning (of course). went back to a single wall as opposed to the twin walls i had on my 12's. i prefer the single wall anyway. still needs to be slammed though, hopefully soon whenever i can find the time! <- don't mind the baby on board thing, the blokes from work put that on for a laugh when i wasn't looking, cbf taking it off lol.

thanks for the comments guys! i put my 13" mazda steelies and celica hubbies on 2nite, looks sweet but will look betta once i get the whitewalls re-done which won't be till saturday. Mic, I'm not lowering it excessively or anythin, dropping the rear till the arches just covers the tyre and the front will be abit above the tyre. should look phat :lolcry:.

nah no decent updates on the pano yet, everything has halted on that for now while iv been getting my wagon on the road, ill b concentrating on the pano now though :D. put my fender mirrors on today tho on the wagon, took awhile to sort everythng out since i had to drill into the front guard lol, i didn't wanna stuff it up! looks fken awesome though, feels weird driving with them on tho but they work better then any conventional mirror i reckon, easier to see shit. ill get used to it! only downside is iv got some holes on the drivers door where the old mirror was until it goes to get resprayed, cos my mate will fill them up. anyway heres some pics!

Brake Master/booster Upgrade Choice.
thanks for the help Ke10-Hoon. i have been offered a 1" dual circuit wilwood master cylinder which would work well with the VH40 remote booster as i can run both the front and rear brakes on their own circuit. I'm considering purchasing it, just gona do a bit more reading up on it first.

New Daily - Ke26 4 Door
yeh its should be an interesting little beast when its done lol. does anyone know where i could track down some 13" steelies to suit my rolla? as i have a set of TA22 hubbies that i wanna chuck on them as i saw a pic of another wagon with them and it looked horn asssss.

Brake Master/booster Upgrade Choice.
i couldn't tell you too be honest! i only want to opt for one as i there was barely any room in the bay, when the 13B was still in, with just the master cylinder in place, let alone having booster bolted to it. so relocating the booster to somewhere else is my only other real option.

Brake Master/booster Upgrade Choice.
hey guys, I'm deciding on what i wanna use to upgrade the brake system on my '26 panelvan, iv worked out the rotor/disc side of it but havn't really thought about the hydraulics side of it yet. since my car never came out with a booster from factory and it will be running a 13BT ill be ditching the stock m/cylinder without question. I'm thinking of upgrading to a Hilux master cylinder and opting for a VH40 remote booster. where would be the best place to mount the booster so that its out of the way. if i had a boot i would most likely want to put it there but i haven't really got that option. i could possibly mount it behind the LH headlight but i don't want the engine bay to look over crowded :bash:. any input would be great.

ill see what happens lol, ill definately b getting it lowered soon though, maybe next weekend if i can since i gotta pick up shit for my rotor anyway. i got mine from Tough Tyres, but u could get em from anywhere most likely, don't see why not. where like $45 a tyre from memory. gotta love 12" tyres, nice n cheap lol.

thanks dave, ill just use the body number. i think thats what i did when i had the ke20 anyway, can't remember now lol. if everything goes to plan tommoro n i get it registered ill hopefully have the fender mirrors on it before the end of the week, i can't wait to see how it looks with them. dougal, the tyres are 'Sime Tyres' 165 or 155/60/12, can't see the size cos of the whitewalls, but those are the only brand i could find in 12". i got the whitewalls done by Dennis, i gave u his number in another thread :bash:. ill probably get them re-done soon as they are starting to look shitty and i wanna go back to a single wall not double walls.

mmm, just quickly. I'm having trouble finding the VIN for this thing, i found the old rego label from last year in the glovebox which has the engine number (which i found) but has another number on it which I'm assuming is the VIN, but i can't find it in the engine bay. theres a number on the firewall that starts with KE26-xxx.... but it doesn't match the number on the rego label. any idea where i could find it? iv looked on the build plates etc but can't see anything :).

New Daily - Ke26 4 Door
thanks dave, i managed to get the number :). finally got everything done so ill b registering the car on monday if everything goes my way, taking time off work specifically so i can get it done! tracked down some normal wheel nuts aswell so i could put my hubbies back on as i hated the look of the scummy stocko steelies. looks 100% better now. heres some new pics with the plates on aswell ;)

well 2 of em i pinched off the panelvan n the othr 2 i got for free from a mate, the 2 dodgy ones came off the panelvan lol. so atleast i didn't pay anythin for em, i just sprayed em up n slapped some tyres on em. ill suss something out n see if i can get em fixed. i'd still prefer to get the superlites aswell :(. not until the car get resprayed tho, thats the next priority after registration.
-
New Daily - Ke26 4 Door
lol, i love the look of superlites, I'm still gonna keep the chasers but they aren't the best fit in the world, one of em as a slight buckle i found out and one has a different offset to the other 3 :(. are steel wheels able to be modifed to suit my car perfectly? as in can u change the offset/pattern? if so i would most likely spend the money to do that rather then buy a whole new set of wheels. i just want a nice set of 15s, that don't vibrate when u drive on em hah.
