Raven's Ke25 Corolla Memorial Rebuild - Now Parting Out


Raven

Recommended Posts

Well, I traded ReCOUPErator some money for what you see below.

 

This car will now be built in memory of my best friend, who passed away on the 6th August, 2007.

 

My aim, if I have the money, is to have the car done by her 1 year anniversary of her passing, though thats going to be VERY tough to do, if not, I'll make it by summer 2008.

 

Everyone on here may or may not have seen this car sitting in the forums, but I thought I would share it with you all.

 

Its quite nice to drive, now that I've had it tuned and serviced. With the timing sitting on TDC, it used quite a bit of fuel, but that's all sorted.

 

I really havent done too much to it since I got it.

 

So far:

  • Installed The Stereo
  • Rewired The Tacho Correctly
  • Re-attached The Black Bonnet Strip
  • Major Service & Tune
  • Just ordered one of two interior light covers left in Australia thats brand spanking new!

I plan on a brake upgrade at some point too.

So I put the KE25 up on car ramps today to have a look underneath and see what nastiness i could find, and I tell you what, I did find two spots of nastiness.

This would happen to be the L/H Chassis Rail. Not good if I'm going to put a 4AGE in it let alone even think about a turbo conversion with that sitting there. I'll get it off to the chassis shop this week sometime if I can.
