Crowie55 Posted October 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2011 Installed the Sigma lca's and AJPS rca's on the weekend the lca's have increased my track a fair bit, the top lip of my 6's now stick out the top of my guard while the bottom stick out a little more. Just got a wheel alignment done and the camber was recorded at -1.9 degrees :happy: . The rca's have almost eliminated any bump steer which is great. All in all I'm very with both of the products.

Crowie55 Posted October 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2011 (edited) Updates: Just ordered a nice Nardi wood grain wheel that has been sanded and polished with a darker coat of lacquer/stain added as you can see, something a little different to the norm. I'd also better get around to install the perfect condition dash pad too, bloody thing has been sitting in my cupboard for 8 months. Â Also undecided on weather to paint the dash fascia a similar black to the dash itself while I have it all apart :hmm: Â Enjoy, Crowie.

SLO-030 Posted October 25, 2011 Report Share Posted October 25, 2011 (edited) Nice update man! Â Be a little weary of installing that good condition pad. I bought one that knew was crack free for at least a year before I bought it. Installed it. Then 2-3 weeks later it was begining to crack :bash: Edited October 25, 2011 by SLO-030 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crowie55 Posted October 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2011 Nice update man! Â Be a little weary of installing that overrated pad.

Then 2-3 weeks later it was begining to crack :bash: Thanks dude :y: Hmmm maybe I need to baste it in Armour all it a few times before installing. Let it absorb some good stuff and keep it lathered up while under my dash mat. Hopefully that will do the trick :wink: Cheers, Crowie.

SLO-030 Posted October 25, 2011 Report Share Posted October 25, 2011 After it started cracking. Always parked in the shade before that. I think it may have to do with being fitted also. They are a little flexible un fitted. once fitted they are pretty rigid. Could be something like that? :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BUZ440 Posted October 27, 2011 Report Share Posted October 27, 2011 mine sat in the shed for 4 years on the gold coast, and no probs with the dash, Â I had mine done by a shop on the coast 5 years ago, ill find the card, Â I'm kind of against armoural, not on fitness equipment tho haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crowie55 Posted October 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2011 Tried my hand at polishing today. Even polished a pair of Chillin's wheels up while he was at work, came up an absolute treat. I'm a very very happy man today considering the shops wanted in excess of $100 per wheel to do. Cheers, Crowie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crowie55 Posted November 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2011 Nardi and horn button arrived today! super stoked on how the wheel feels in hand it completely changes the driving experience. Capped off a wonderful day where I quit my shit-kicker job, and acquired a much better paying job... looks like the corolla may get some extra love in the coming weeks. :dance: Â And now for the bad news, my wheel lips have still not arrived! I was quoted 4 weeks until they arrived on the 18th of September. >| Not happy Jan. Cheers, Crowie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crowie55 Posted November 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2011 More updates for the wagon! Today I finally got around to fitting the overrated dash pad I had, after 9 months of procrastination the job was surprisingly easy compared to what I remember last time. Â Also changed that horrid steel ball shifter knob to a more suitable and legal one. A nice length wooden shifter with a laser cut H pattern in perspex on top. Very happy with the results :dance: Â Ordered some more fancy interior bits and some chrome trims to complete the exterior on Friday. Â Cheers, Crowie.

Crowie55 Posted November 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2011 Steering wheel/Gear knob combo looks great, really classy :cool: Cheers mate; it was the look I was trying to achieve :happy: , I should really put some detailed pictures up to compare the shades of wood, they are almost identical. Much better than a pink dildo most kids seem to put on ke's these days. Cheers, Crowie. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
