Blew the dust off yet again after 1 year in storage and trailered my wags to World Time Attack 2012 this year held at Sydney Motorsport Park AKA Eastern Creek Raceway. 
Entered the Show n Shine and brought the Radrollaz car club with me :)

{Making The Diff Sit Center}

I've had the car for quite some time now sitting tucked away in the garage but never forgotten. Fortunately i make the effort and tow it around to attend the odd show and rep the AE95 culture. Every time i get the car out i cringe at how the diff sits to one side when its aired out due to the panhard rod design.
I found that to push the diff to center i would need to lengthen the panhard rod. Easy. cut it and weld an extended sleeve pipe on to the required length. 
Further thinking saw a high tensile bolt and two nuts welded in, thus adjustable cheap panhard rod. Works well.

Cut section out and tack in the bolt.

So the real reason for modifying the panhard rod was apart of a couple of little preparations i had for a spontaneous road-trip interstate down south to Melbounre, Victoria where i attended the first automotive festival held by 100mm called "Certified". 100mm

I got new DTM Racing Wheels from www.jdmyard.com, specs are 16x8 +25 offset with stretched 195/45/16 tires.

I'll let the pics do the talking:

Another reason that encouraged the road trip was to meet the some fellow AE95 enthusiasts who were keen to meet up. Big Thanks to Jed, Mick, Brian and Andy for coming together at such short notice. Was well worth the trip to have a 95's all together even if it was dark. You guys are legends!

New Wheels again. 
Measured up offsets and realized I can fit 9's under the rear! Went back to 15's as had more tire selection choices. Ordered some cheap Varrstoen wheels from the USA with a speedy delivery just in time for this years Toyotafest and WTAC 2013

Specs are: 15x8 and 15x9 +25 all round with 185/55/r15 rubber.

It's been a fair while between posts. I have taken the old girl on road for a year, driven a handful of times and now back off the road into the shed.

Before road registration ran out recently, I managed to get some ripper photos taken by the talented J_Hui-Design-Photography/ with some beautiful "lowkey" backdrops.

Enjoy!
