  1. Haha wow that's a LOT of bog.
  2. Spacers are getting here pretty fast too!
  3. Had to look that up. Do want.
  4. Took a week for these to get here from the US. Pretty impressed. Theres even an extra two I didnt order so I have 6 spares now (bought two 10 packs). Just gotta wait for my hubcentric spacers and rings and the wheels will be held on a lot safer.
  5. So I wanted to get rid of the eBay special dished suede steering wheel. Not really a fan of suede or the yellow stripe. I put my overrated twinky wheel up for swaps and after a bunch of people offering me fake Sparco and Nardi someone offered me this. I did a bit of research on them and they're not Italian quality but still have very good reviews. Plus I reckon it looks dope AF. Should be here in a few days.
  6. Ha, or adding stupid wide wheels and new suspension gear without getting one for months. Was putting it off until I did the bushes. The flogging the inner side of the front left wheel was getting made me get my ass into gear. Will need another one once I sort RCA's and the reverse steering arm kit.
  7. I'm gonna cruise down from the Sunny Coast. Anyone Northside wanna meet up and cruise down?
  8. Those tail lights <3
  9. Pretty sure it's a fuse behind the drivers kick panel next to the accelerator
  10. Flares, big, painted.
  11. Engine Gearbox Pedal box Gearbox cross member Flywheel Clutch Clutch fork Throw out bearing and carrier Clutch fork clips Clutch master Clutch slave Clutch hard and soft lines Drive shaft Fuel pump Spigot bearing Loom Ecu Exhaust Illest stickers Miscellaneous : Wire Fuses Fuel line Surge tank (not 100% needed). A good idea: Upgraded struts Upgraded diff Upgraded brakes Budget at least $5,000 doing all the work yourself.
  12. If you have a manual ae71 with a 4ac all you need is the engine, loom and an exhaust. It would pay to do a front strut/brake upgrade for engineering though.
  13. Hurts my balls just thinking about it.
  14. This is how mine sat with the coilovers wound all the way up with this setup, on 15" wheels. http://www.rollaclub.com/board/uploads/monthly_06_2014/post-8907-0-78962600-1402302484_thumb.jpg
  15. You'll need shorter inserts. I used celica ones.
  16. You'll need to get custom springs made or convert to coilovers. The upper spring perch is too big for the ke70 strut towers so you need to use a KE upper perch. So you'd need to run a ke70 spring which is too small for the lower perch. Best bet, get an HSD coilovers kit from Otomoto, shorten the struts 40mm to suit shorter shocks and get the xt130 steering arms shortened.
  17. BC coilovers are base height adjustable. Xt130 struts are an excellent upgrade but are a lot of work but give far better cheap brake upgrade options over ae86. If you're gonna waste money on strut upgrades don't do it to stock struts. Don't chop your springs. Illegal and will make it handle like shit. Edit: but if you rail it super low it doesn't matter what you do it'll handle like shit no matter what.
  18. Holy cap what a difference a wheel alignment can do. Feels fantastic now.
  19. Just bought some proper hubcentric 10mm spacers and 50mm Toyota Matrix studs. Hopefully it's a bit safer than 8mm slip ons.
  20. Yeah, makes parking it in my garage nearly impossible, add the long doors and it's a struggle to get out.
  21. Add a wheel alignment and I'm guessing it'll be pretty great, kinda a handful on the highway at the moment.
  22. Decided to ses if I could service the front wheel bearings to eliminate the small wobble I have under brakes. It's too much of a bastard to do with the tools I have so I might get a mechanic to do it. While I was there I thought it would be a great idea to do the Prothane bush kit. And wow, there were some flogged out bushes. It now has brand new Castor arm bushes front and rear, control arm bushes front and rear and front sway bar bushes. Shoukd be cool to see the change tomorrow. Also noticed my front left tyre is getting scrubbed out so time for the wheel alignment I've been putting off.
  23. New episode.
  24. Sexy
