Skellington Posted May 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2013 I have been getting some work done. All 4 wheels are painted and cleared. I ended up putting a clear on them. it added a glossy appearance, but I'm ok with it. Here they are complete: I am able to get the car in the garage to work on it now, so thats a plus. I mocked up the rims on the car. Rear will fit PERFECT. I am going for a filled out wheel well and the rear can't get any better than this: The front are close. They stick out less than an inch out of the front gaurd. These are 7.5" wide wheels, and I will run a 185-60-r14 Falken Ziex ZE-512. I should have a little stretch going on so they might tuck in nicely. There she sits until i beat the dreaded California SMOG! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FishEye Posted May 30, 2013 Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 Dude nice... How do you plan on lowering it? Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skellington Posted May 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 Here is what I got on the MA61's: Â Â Dude nice... How do you plan on lowering it? I will make front coilovers. I will probably use https://technotoytuning.com/toyota/te37 or something like it. I am a DIY guy, So I may just gather parts and do it myself. I am undecided on the rear. I am thinking of using the leaf springs with blocks. Adding a panhard rod and 2 lower links to help locate axle, but if I go that far, I might as well just 4 link it. Who knows.

I want to get those same front coils for my te31 and use blocks in the rear... I hear the ride quality is shitty but I'm not sure... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skellington Posted June 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2013 Â Here is how it did at the smog shop. The guy first told me it would probably fail. his manager came over and made him re test it when he saw the CO%. He then laughed and told me it smogged bet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skellington Posted July 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2013 My corolla is now upgraded from garage space taker, to commuter. Now I feel that i can justify spending more on it. Pics because I like them: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
