March 30, 200917 yr Author comment_332704 Yea, heres for hoping nothings been hurt too bad. Any way of tucking it up out of the way of most of the danger? yeh thats what the g/box xmember mod will be for, so i can raise the exhaust up so its not so low. Should be able to raise it a couple of inches :wink: Flares/13x10 PLEASE? NEVER going to happen mate! the car has been build as a sleeper and that is how it will stay, sorry to disappoint Report

April 2, 200917 yr Author comment_333498 nice replacement!is it original toyota?where did you get the handles from?Ebay?how much pls? not genuine toyota, brand new from Phils Rotaries, bought through ebay. $30+postage can't really complain. NEW PREMIUM PLATES!!! slimline front, can be seen halfway down the previous page and a "square" rear plate :bash: suits the rear end of the '20 HEAPS better than a normal plate IMO Edited April 2, 200917 yr by 13BT_KE20 Report
April 30, 200917 yr comment_340928 too right about the rear plate, little fat one suits it well. any updates with the car? or just enjoying it? Report
April 30, 200917 yr Author comment_340974 too right about the rear plate, little fat one suits it well.any updates with the car? or just enjoying it? yeah it looks heaps better. No real updates yet, just been enjoying it and collecting suspension parts. It runs out of rego in a fortnight so it'll be off the road for a month or so getting all the suspension and brakes done. Hilfo and more boost is probably on the cards too :P Report
May 23, 200917 yr Author comment_346915 got a custom oil catch can made, ordered all new front suspension which will arrive monday and hopefully be in before the weekend. Front struts are currently out and receiving KE70 front disks and calipers. Raven hooked me up with some bendix pads (cheers mate). Leaf springs should be ready to be picked up by the end of the week to. Everythings happening a little quicker than i thought which is nice. Looking at getting a line locker and brake bias controller as well. Report
May 24, 200917 yr comment_346961 Your 20 looks tough as nails mate. Looks good with the premium plates, ive had them a couple years and fit much nicer than the standard aus plates. Report

Looks good with the premium plates, ive had them a couple years and fit much nicer than the standard aus plates. thanks mate, looks will be staying as it. Its underneath where the modifications continue to happen. The slimline front plate and square rear plate definitely suit the car must better than the crappy rectangular standard plates. After seeing how much better it looked on your car i changed to them :D Plus the slimline front plates give me a little bit more airflow to my FMIC and oil cooler which is a bonus! Report

I do love the new look of your car, but i really don't want/need the extra attention. We'll have to organise a photo shoot/cruise once my cars back on the road Report
May 24, 200917 yr comment_346991 thats it!!! I do love the new look of your car, but i really don't want/need the extra attention. We'll have to organise a photo shoot/cruise once my cars back on the road See thats where mines awsome, it attracts a stupid amount of attention and looks like its going to be quick but really it can't go much faster than 70km/h! Yay 20+sec 1/4 miles. Report
June 4, 200917 yr Author comment_349892 Update time: car is currently sitting like this lol front end is all back in with a few dramas..... New shocks, new tie rod end, new bushes throught. turns out i already have lowered pedders front springs which have been reset again about 1.5" lower, the adjustable strut tops arent in yet but will be shortly, I'm happy with the height the front sits at but i am still not happy with the stiffness. So when the struts come back out to put the strut tops in ill be getting some new front springs made to the same height but stiffer! ATM i have almost 0 camber and about +1.5 caster. When the strut tops and springs go in ill be looking at going to about -2 camber and +3 caster :bash: New vs old leaf springs I'm halfway through putting them in (ran out of light) hence why the car is sitting how it is.
