paint and wheels look wicked mate.

I froth over those steering wheels, they suit any old school car haha. Always wanted one. Your car looks sweet man. Good work.

Cheers, I love the nardi, it had a black leather one in the car when I first got it but the leather is stuffed.

Hope to have the front bar, bonnet chrome and windscreen wipers back on today and that will be the exterior done.

Got all the exterior apart from ariel done and started on my coilovers today.

have you chop the struts down to suit the sw20 shocks?

Nah, going to run an aluminum spacers underneath, should be low enough

ah sweet, what gland nut? i heard r31 gas insert ones fit

How hard where the s15 seats to fit? Thinking of sourcing a set for my ke55.

wow this thing is sick, nice work mate :y:

Evan, the gland nuts that came with my kyb sw20 shocks are correct for my struts, everyone told me that I needed r31's as well but these are correct, I don't know if the rt132 struts have a different thread to the xt130, but I doubt it, everything else is the same. All you need is a peice of round aluminum 45mm long and it should go together.

 

Mark, the s15 seats aren't that hard to fit if you have access to a decent range of steel, a welder and plenty of time, they mount to the side of the seat on the trans tunnel side of the seat and to the bottom on the other side, none of the holes line up across the seat so you need to pick a datum point and measure from there, I basically have a complete frame welded under the seats made from 6mm stainless steel then the corolla rails bolt to that. If you have a sedan I would recommend s4/5 rx7 seats, the only require one hole drilled in each of the corolla rails, them they bolt in, they sit too high in the coupe for me. I wish I took a photo of the mount I made.

Bit more progress, put in the kyb shocks in the rear and finished welding up the intercooler pipes

Finished rebuilding the calipers today, just waiting on new brake lines and the coilovers can go in.

Coilovers finished, rt132 struts, hsd coilover kit 5kg, dimple drilled rotors, braided lines

Oh and techno toy tuning camber tops, rcas and ae86 ps arms
