Hi everyone, here are some pics of my AE112r

 

this is the most recent photo i have.

 

 

the day i brought her home. Very neat and tidy.

 

This is how it looked for a while, i'm in the process of making the cutout grille again.

 

After a wash at home, probably one of the last photos where the paint was still nice. My clear coat has since decided it no longer like my paint and they're going their separate ways.

 

will post some more pics soon,

let me know what you think.

i'll also update with a list of the mods i've made.

 

Simon.

clear coat seperation is so common in cars from the 90s.

 

Looks at most commodores, toyotas and falcons with COB paintwork. They all have issues.

 

The problem is actually from the way the cars were painted, the base was left too long before the clear was applied, means that the poly elements of the two paints don't mix and stick like they should.

 

 

yeah kinda sucks coz it was so nice when i bought it. i'm thinking now that i mite just go matte black over the entire car.

Simon's '99 Corolla Conquest AE112R.

 

Bought as standard as they come.

 

Here's a list of what i've done so far....

2" Sports exhaust w/ Extracters Hi-flow Cat & Single Sports muffler at the back w/ 45* angled tip.

Exedy Heavy-duty clutch

K&N Hi-flow filter element

Hi-clone (yes, it has made a slight difference)

Top Gun ignition leads

NGK Iriduim spark plugs

Sound System (Pioneer Headunit & Fusion Speakers)

17" Speedy Lite-7 Rims, now are Speedy Lite-5 Rims (due the gold fading, Speedy replaced them with a new set)

Sportivo Turbo Front-lip Spoiler

Clear side-indicators

Toyota Slimline weathershields

Aftermarket Headlight bulbs (not sure exactly what they are, but there brighter and bluer)

1x Green LED bar mounted under bonnnet near front windscreen, hooked to a bonnet release.

Color coded interior panels (dash & gauge panel surrounds, center console and door armrests)

New top spoiler on the rear window

thanks jaay.

No worries mate. It looks better on darker colours I think. Suits it well.

Btw any luck with the part number for the window visors?

 

Thanks

looks good.

thanks for the comments guys. I'm thinking of not worrying about the spoiler risers now, as having the top spoiler makes the bottom one look better, the risers look better by themselves.

 

jaaay, no good with the part number, had a look through my owners manual and couldn't find the receipt anywhere.

That's fine Simon. I'll just have to keep looking :)

Did you end up colour coding it? Any rear shots of the car?

Your front end is making me think of getting a sportivo front lip now. Looks nice! Keep it up!
