Yea, it really tidys up the bay. even with how the bay is now (orig paint scuffed) you can tell it looks cleaner. hehe, Already done :jamie:. Not really, I'm going a little further with the hidden wiring. As in the only wires you'll see will be a couple on the engine but unless you look really close you can't tell where they connect to the body. Also all the brake lines are either getting wrapped in black loom tube or getting painted black to tie in with the bay.

Probably only illegal due to all the backyard joes putting a hole here and there and hopin she spins alright. I'll be welding the original stud holes up (put some strength back into em) and running the centercaps ( for looks) so unless they pop the caps and look closely i shouldnt have a problem. only way to tell would be the discoloured/ affected chrome around where the welding of the original holes are.

What Grinds My Gears.
^^ This sorta thing grinds my gears. YES, i may be a commodore. YES, this is a corolla forum. Its people like this bloke and his mate giving the ol commodores and falcons the reputations they have now. They can be great cars when they're not treated or modified like shit.

Cheers Si. I went down to a wheel and rim place and they didnt wanna touch em. so i'll drill one wheel and chuck a 114.3 axle in the lathe and see how concentricly it spins. there is a little play between the center bore on the wheel and the aligner <0.2mm which I'm not really too concerned about. Edit: If it is too far out concentricity(spl?), when i chamfer the stud hole i'll chamfer it a little more to enlarge the hole 0.1mm and make up some 60/80mm hubcentric rings to make sure it all spins as the god of spinny things intended it to.

Cancer In The Ke20
2mm?!?!? Jebus. these things are only made out of 0.8mm - 1mm. Zinc annealed is apparantly the stuff cars are made out of. doesnt ripple as much as normal mild steel when pressed into shapes. I'll be using 0.8 or 1mm for when i blank out my rear side windows.

Cruise Sat 28th November
What i meant was, If you wanna go fast all you have to do is drop back a bit. It was the other way around on the birthday cruise and all the slower cars had to catch up to them.

Mini Tubs
Or just some FAT tyres. As i;ve saind in another thread, you can fit 215's under 30/55 guards with the right offset. 215's or 225's would be more than enough for what most people are putting down in corolla's
