irokin Posted January 7, 2006 Report Share Posted January 7, 2006 buy a kit from another car and modify it. AFAIK no one makes a kit for a corolla of any description. The only car that MIGHT have a kit is the AE86. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Medicine_Man Posted January 7, 2006 Report Share Posted January 7, 2006 Yeah, I've seen an AE86 with sciscor doors before, I don't think that you actually buy the kits for specific cars, they have to be modified to fit whatever you are installing them into. Pretty sure you just buy a generic kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Jamie Posted January 7, 2006 Report Share Posted January 7, 2006 try a hotrod or customs shop, you'll probably have to import something from america Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure you just buy a generic kit. agree. I'm pretty sure that people will only have to stock popular car models like late model skylines or as you say wrx and evo stuff. but other than that I'm sure that you can only buy what medicine man said generic kits that you adapt to your application.

rjenman Posted January 8, 2006 Report Share Posted January 8, 2006 they have to be modified to fit whatever you are installing them into. Pretty sure you just buy a generic kit. Well I've seen ads for scissor doors that have said that they do custom kits... however using my powers of induction I am thinking they might be more expensive that way... However if u get an old corolla going with scissors doors that would be completely crazy, in a good way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
love ke70 Posted January 8, 2006 Report Share Posted January 8, 2006 i thought about this last year, ebay sell the kits, but the coula hundred wasnt worth it at the time, I'm pretty sure they were on ebay anyway...have a look, and yeah they fit any car without too many hassles :rocknroll: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxtail Posted January 13, 2006 Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 I saw some on a AE86 the other day, some guy welded house door hinges to his A pillars. I am serious!! looked good from a distance, will get a photo next time! Made the door pretty bloody heavy (no struts in it yet) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
