REDBULL FTW! i reckon its the best tasting energy drink! no energy drinks seem to do much for me but redbull support freestyle bmx and fmx that in my books will always make em a winner!! EDIT: and the redbull girls a normally hot and very nice!! :) :no2:

Doug Potts 0412217360 very nice person very helpful. prices are a little cheaper than most.

Chrome?? i can do it but i don't have a clue where to source chrome coat from went searching before but on some forums i read they all say that it doesn't last very long goes dull. what sort of media is it? sorry ryan!

yep!! they are the longchamps!!

guide coat is a speckle coat. usually black and and acrylic. you turn your air waaay up fan waaay up stand back a bit and spray ir on like a mist. when you the block sand it the dark patcher left behind are low spots which will require either more primer or a bit of filler.

oh man where is the updates???

thanks redwarf! your giving me the info i'm kinda after!! shockers in the front are gabriel ultras considering upgrading but they are b/n. not meaning to play with the big boys. i just frequently do hill runs and you gotta be quick. i want the car nice and stable. i wish i could get kilo ig i'll ask today actually! there was a suspension tech article somewhere? was it here or ae86dc? explaining about snap understeer etc. spring rate etc. oh if you know what the stock spring rate is in a corolla then from there you can work out 50% stiffer. so basically daily/recreational hill runs the 20v will be na at first. then when funds permit turbo.

ok so far i have. mx62 struts with gas shocks so meant for 6cyl quite stiff also 50% stiffer and lowered springs up front. have reset leafs with extra pack. pedders is adding an anti tramp bar as well. gas shockers. really want stiffer but i got no idea what will fit? planned to buy a whiteline 60% uprated adjustable for the front. rear 60% uprated sway bar. i reckon for suspension there isn't much more i can do except for rear shocks. any idea? trd ones are hard to come by. so then that leaves chassis stuff.

foam filling the rails hardens them. maybe foam is the wrong word. but it can make the car super stiff and handle well but upon sudden impact the rails will snap instead of bending

hmm its gonna be a daily. so cage is kinda outts the question. unless a half cage will work and look neat? by the time i'm totally finished with my 20v i want to be cranking 150kwatw. i want to strengthen the chassis to make the egnineering a bit easier.. the test the chassis rigidity whether or not it can handle the power. so with some bracings i figure it'll help. also hill climbs etc. are things i do all the time! soo much fun and i want the car to handle really well. stiff suspension isn't a biggie. suspension was stiff before. but done on the dodge. by simply using a strut bar in the front won't that promote understeer? maybe like s strut bar from shakle mount to shakcle mount? ore somehow brace the leaf springs to the chassis to prevent sidways torsion? or am i waay off? there are aftermaket bracings for newer cars that involve strengthening both front and rear just thinking why this wouldn't be applicable to our cars?

here is a link i found.. halfway down in the whiteline section they have a listing for ke10-15 swaybars?!! 22mm heavy duty! soorry stupid me!! give me a sec!

Hey all been researching some ways to strengthen my chassis! front strut bars are available! i remember ages ago quarter panel braces are available from somewhere can't rmember where! but that only takes care of the front! what can be done about the rear? i was thinking maybe a farmgate style frame made outta chro mo bolted betweent the chassis rails in the rear? would a shocker brace do anything? not much in the way of tower in the rear! anythoughts? seam welding is an option but i don't' think i have the patience nor the equipment available. foam filling the rails can have dtrimental results i hear. so yeah! lets dicuss designs and possibities?

my guess is a 2pack primer wasn't used? it is weird tho! the heat woulda done it although its been two yrs now hasn't it?

^^^^ ;) :( ;) there is a big difference i reckon between a 4k ke30 and a 4k ke55. so a 5k ke30 would be worth it! my mate has a litace van and that does second ger chirpies and can get it doing donuts on bitumen! so they seem pretty good if your going to stick with k motors its the best striclty bolt in mod you can do! do it!

longchamps!!! ;) onlt photo i got of longchamps

longchamps?? these look wicked on ae86's can someone photchop some longchamps onto a ke30/55? those lenso's are porn!!

hmm thats sucks!!! bog should never do that unless it wasn't sealed properly or given enough time to complete its shrinking.

cool!!! do it!! need more 20v in these cars newer and good power to be had!!

ha mine was from ebay $160 no hole mind you but it would be better to cut your own! that way you can get a better snugger fit! aslo for people like me using a t50 the quality is great and they are pressed using original toyota mouldings

haha lol!! come on man i want this car to be at least a little bit individual!! nah its cool!! imagine a bunch of rebuilt pimped rollas rollin through the city streets!! yeah!! i hope flairing the fronts isn't hard! bit gay tho cutting up overrated guards if its gonna work!! get yours stripped and i'll help you out with watever!

this is nice!! not a real fan of any newer corollas but the more i see these done up ones the more they are growing on me!! probs a noob question but what is a 'Hi-Clone'?

nah won't be wrecking that one i'm not sure if flaired rear and not flaired front is going to lookok so on my crappy panel i'm going to be sussing it out. and if its easy enough i'll be flairing my two fronts as well

yeah i'm soo stoked about that guard. now i got a spare to test out flairing like my rears!

jason i did thanks him its at the bottom man!!
