Thirteen13 Posted November 19, 2011 Report Share Posted November 19, 2011 (edited) Hey everyone, Its probably about time i put up a ride post so here it is. General Info - 1991 AE93 Toyota Corolla SX Seca Mechanical - 172,XXX kms on body, unsure on motor km - Wolf 3d v3 w/ hand controller - MAP sensored 4A-GZE 7rib. w/ SC12 - Bosch coils with thick leads - E81 manual - Exedy HD clutch - King Lows with New shocks - AE101 SS Big brake front end with bendix HD pads - Extractors with full mandril bent 2.5" exhaust Wheels - 15x7 Rota RB ET+30 with 195/55 rear and 195/55 front. Body - Standard w/ bonnet scoop - Glass headlights with narva 5000k white globes Interior - JVC KD602 Headunit - 500gb HDD for all music and no cd's - 6" splits JVC DRVN in the doors - 6x9" splits JVC DRVN in pods in the back - Sony Xplod amp 600w 4ch. that came with the car and has only 3 channels now! - Red and black momo steering wheel pretty Hektik! Made 136.4fwhp / 101fwkw on the dyno. Such a fun little car to own, definately not the fastest but definately up there with one of the most fun. I've owned rwd turbo cars in the past, but there is something really fun about a go kart sized car with a bit of an angry bee under its bonnet! As far as future plans go, i do have a turbo which I'm still contemplating adding on, but supercharger power and the nice instant kick that it gives would be hard to give up!

Spencer[RL] Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 Never been a big fan of this model but this has 2 be the best looking 1 I've seen and Its changing me slowly... Wheels, with the white paint suit it so much! This thing must have some go that will scare most things on the road. Do I spot E-shed markets ? :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thirteen13 Posted November 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 (edited) Spencer: You are wise youngone. Yes you do! I was out driving around like a little old lady and decided some happy snaps where in order. Cheers mate, i know AE92 are not really the most exciting car, but perhaps thats its saving grace. I really never get hassled by the 5-0. Yeah the GZE goes pretty well, it is a pretty fun car to drive. frasian: I havent met you before but i think i spotted your corolla at the JDMWA cruise! Yeah if you do see me next time definately come up and say Hi! update: Just obtained front mount intercooler and piping so hopefully get a little bit more power! Any one have any suggestions on mods engine or exterior wise i could do? I'm constantly hunting around for an MX73 front lip and perhaps some bucket seats. I've still got the GT2871R which I'm always deciding wether to fit up or not! Cheers guys Edited November 28, 2011 by Thirteen13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spencer[RL] Posted November 28, 2011 Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 Put that GT2871R on ! Is it a big coversion going from GZE to GTE? -Turbo mani -Oil lines -J pipe -Custom piping between turbo, intercooler and intake mani -New ecu what else???? You could get it plated if you wanted to ... Buckets seats range from some cheapies from repco ( Autoechnica - $350-$450 ) which are not bad!! To the high end bride, recaro ,sparcos etc ($1000-$1000000000000000000000000)... don't forget you'll need new rails with either option and make sure they ADR approved its the first thing the copper looks at when having a look inside.

Thirteen13 Posted November 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 Na the turbo swap isn't really that difficult. The motor is good for it too. Ive got intercooler, piping, turbo and a wolf3d so just need oil lines and exhaust manifold really. Probably worth going to an NA smallport manifold also. But you bought it off me!

B.L.Z.BUB Posted November 28, 2011 Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 (edited) don't forget you'll need new rails with either option My Autotechnica Monza Sport bolted straight on and in. EDIT: May be different story for these though Edited November 28, 2011 by blzbub666 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BUZ440 Posted November 28, 2011 Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 Do like RB series rims, and the 2871 with the Wolf will be great, I have been trying to track down a hand controller for a while since they went out of stock Tidy ride, I would never look at it :cool: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spencer[RL] Posted November 28, 2011 Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 Nick - You more than welcome to have the smallport mani back for what I paid for it, Let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thirteen13 Posted November 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 Cheers guys. Yeah i wouldnt mind better seats than the stocko ones. I feel like when i get into the car the seats are going to snap off cause they are so flimsey and shit. Plus on crazy hektik trips to the supermarket for a loaf of bread i need to securely fastened in my seat! Nisrolla, i did want Watanabe's but i can't really justify lashing out for them when the Rota RB where a cheaper option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frasian Posted November 29, 2011 Report Share Posted November 29, 2011 i prefer superlites to the rota RB they look alot different to the watanabe the rb doesnt really do it for me, or try the konig rewinds aswell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thirteen13 Posted November 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2011 Yeah i considered Superlites, but i don't like how massive the centre piece is. As for the konig's well i could have gone for them, but again the price tag is quite high on them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
