Edited March 21, 201115 yr by t18drifts

my car is about the same around the tail lights, but worse on one of the window sils... but in general its not really that bad... easy enough to fix with some mesh & metalmend ;)

YES NO MAYBE ? http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Ke70-Te71-Te72-Toyota-Corolla-Quadlights-assembly-JDM-/130500120207?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item1e6269ce8f :cool:

Maybe, if you can get it for that price then yes! I will be putting quad lights on my T18 soon so I can show a picture of what it will look like.

 

Also check to see if you will need a new beaver panel or if you will need to mod yours, I am not sure if T18 ones need to be changed/modified.

Found out the hard way that those quad lights will not fit a T18 due to the guards being longer and different you can't fit the light surrounds around the lights, and you can't use ke70 guards to make them fit because the door shapes are different but I might just cut and modify my guards due to having a spare pair of T18 ones. PM me if you want more details.

Are those ke70 tailights on your t18?

Edited March 27, 201115 yr by Jono.C

Me? yes they will be I will make them fit, I will be finding a ke70 flat front guard to measure and modify the front of my guards, see the T18 ones are longer and have a different part on them for the park lights, I would just use ke70 ones but they rear part is different from T18 to fit the different door shape, just lots of small different things, will also require a flat front bonnet too as the T18 has a slight point down the middle but will just leave it till last till I get everything else sorted.

 

Also getting semi sealed lights and wiring them so all 4 lights come on on low beam and high beam instead of just the outside lights coming on low beam.

UPDATE : well that sounds like it gonna be difficult bro

ok news

the te72 was ment to go to the panel beaters on the 25 but that didnt happen it has been re scheduled to the 15 next friday alll at the awsome price of 15 bucks an hour .

 

ive had this car for almost a year now and we have been thru some hard time i had it confiscated by my step dad i have failed 4 driving tests in it.

 

then due to my parents not wanting to help me practice my driving they let me drive around the hood on my own for practice.

so i little bit of a evalutaion of my time the the te72/charity

i paid 2020 for it to much i was told by every one u will spend more then you paid on it for geting it fixed so far i have only lashed out on new oil, plugs, oil filter ma61 rims, misc stickers steering wheel and tacho to show how slow i can do quarter miles jks jks and thats all under a grand and now we will enter in to a another chapter of this build.

CHAPTER 2 panel and paint and other misc things....

ok so the plan is to repaint it white black out all the chrome trims and the bonnet will be black and i am repainting the ma61 black

 

 

 

 

so today is sunday after many strain filled hours of working out how to strip tires from rims with out a machine i did it with very little damage

to the rims.

 

 

 

 

and also what happens when u go to puch start your car down the hill u live on and it doesnt work cuz you actualy have a dead dead battery then u can't get back up the hill u live on

I paid $2000 for mine, with 8 months rego. But I have spent so far (rough guess) close to $4000, but biggest 3 items where wheels, coilovers/brakes and LSD +4.3GR.

yeah

could i get away with just after market springs in the rear and after market full coilover stiff front for drift track days

its up to you, I personally bought coilovers for a brake upgrade currently just using JDM AE86 stuff but may go something bigger later I bought front coilovers and rear 6kg springs with adjustable height things as a set, ae86 ones fit on the T18 steering arms.

 

But if you don't want a brake upgrade just go some 6 or 8 depending on how stiff you want it springs from AJPS they can make them to suit T18 strut, I wanted bigger brakes because I cooked mine going down a mountain around here.

 

You say you already have king springs? do you have short stroke inserts? if not id say just get some really good inserts and save coilovers, ect for when its pushing more power, that is if you already have the king springs.

yeah got the king springs what exactly are inserts
