July 23, 201313 yr comment_662632 I started off buying a white slanty 4age ke70 from SA, left Melton at 5:30am, drove to the other side of adelaide and then drove this corolla back with no heater & a locked r/h/f strut for 7 hours at 4,200rpm. It was standard bodied on 14 inch cressida steel wheels. I cut the springs and fitted a set of rota grids & cheap china tyres then it looked like this. Went drifting with it Decided I'd have a go running it around Winton with my friends in their r33 gtsts, Best time of the day first time ever on the track was 1:52.4 Was hooked on racing so I started to get into any track days I could, I completed a second winton track day, only thing I changed was my tyres (achilles 123) & my rear shocks to keep up with the higher spring rate caused by cutting the springs. Best time the 2nd time out was a 1:48. Third time taking the car out racing was at the Bryant park "haunted hills" hillclimb. Best time of the day was 61.8 seconds. I tried too hard after my 2nd timed run and managed to put it into a tractor tyre wall. Fair ʞ©$ɟed it too. Nek minnit Add BC coilovers Reshell begins, hours and hours and hours of work. Check out how far that rail is pushed up! All ready to race with only minutes to spare before I had to load up to drive to Winton! Done really well in the new car, 1:45 straight off the trailer. (no photos of the car at winton this time sadly) Ran out of guard clearance when I fitted my AJPS LCAs. Got a full cage fitted (don't have a good photo of it) and patched up the rear firewall/parcel shelf to pass scruit at Winton. Ran the new car at Haunted hills again, didnt put it into the wall this time! yeeeeeee. Done a 60.72 lap with a mega ʞ©$ɟed alignment, 20 degrees toe in & over 5 degrees neg camber. BIG thanks to Grant @ Gripshiftslide.com for the awesome photos. Sorted out the mangled guards just in time for my last outing at winton. Went out on sunday to winton and run a PB with the new setup (LCA's and front swaybar + alignment) 1:44.2. I'll put up some more pics once I get them. And that's all for now, All of this has taken place since last august when I bought the white corolla. Update: Went drifting 10/08/13 Done fairly well, everyone loved the car.
