October 25, 200916 yr comment_385319 Hi Guys, I've been loving the RollaClub community and advice from memebers and the forums. I thought its about time I post some pics of my KE20 project. The project started in 2003 when I removed the 3k, rebuilt a 4k and slapped it in. Also locked the diff and started the body work. For some reason in about 2005 life got to busy and didn't have much time for the beast, so it got moved into storage. 4 years later, missing the urge to go sideways now driving everyday lancer wagon, :dance: the corolla pasion has sprung back into gear and the car has come out of storage. :S Report

November 2, 200916 yr Author comment_387461 Here's the latest update on the 20. The primer coat made it really easy to see so many imperfections in the body. So went back on the sand paper and bog to fix up these spots. My best advice for a first timer spray job is 'if your not 200% happy with the body while preping......keep repairing till your 300% sure, then spray'. Today I've finished the final primer coat and it looks great. Can't to top coat it but can't decide which shade of white to go. Stark White? Pearl White? Vanilla White? Standard Toyota White? :( :) :) Its hard to find an offish white thats not to yellowy.....If you know what I mean. Report
