My New Corolla

not sure yet been thinkin of black and red or even bright green just want somethin that will stand out a bit

Going to start a poll.......?
For what it's worth i still like old skool bronze.........

bronze is a good option am just aware of how small the dark wheels looked before. they are going to be my winter wheels once i have got my 17s. plus am limeted to halfords standard colours

Chris managed to match the colour of my GTR wheels.........beleive it or not the closesr colour was a Ferrari shade.........
Still think a Bronze/Gun metal would look cool.......
Or for impact,what abouy white.........very rally.......

could do yeah dave

my 17s are gonna be white so wanted to keep away from that really. will look into a bronzy colour tho

away from the wheels debate i have now fitted my trd oil cap and carbon/alloy gearknob and my new brakes have arrived just waitin for the pads now. will put some pics up soon

nice one mate, I think bronze may be a good choice

I thort it was about time i posted a few pics now ive modded a few more small areas of the car. sorry about quality of some of the pics

first up, i took my carbon/alloy toyota gearknob out of the mr2.


TRD oil cap - okay its not a real one but will do for now until i can afford the real deal


New Black Diamond Drilled and Grooved front discs


Minitonys old Nardi steering wheel which i need to get re trimmed before fitting


also a new genuine TRD Tax Disc Holder all the way from Yokohama need a new windscreen before fitting tho


also spent loads of time researching a way of converting my Clarion dvd headunit from my MR2 so it will play my USB sticks, its taken a month but i think im finally there so will be fitting this soon too

good to see some updates gregus maximus, however, i will say that if the trd cap is an ebay special, keep an eye on it. they are renowned for leaking, and it looks the same as the one that came on my gti, bar the nismo badge im not saying its definitely a dud, but just keep an eye on it. im sure you've had enough oil loss for one lifetime

how is the civic these days anyway?

lookin good mate will be aswome when the eve head unit is in place, iv seen the amount of reasearch that you have out in and ill tell you, will be very impressive o see it working

yep it definatly is an ebay special mate have been keepin a check on it occasionally definatly dont want any more oil loss between the civic and the mr2 drivshaft i dread to think how much i spent on oil.

surprisingly the civic is still fine see it most days as he works a few units down from me

A few more small changes to the corolla this week. i had trouble with my JDM rear lights so i have re done the conversion by soldering a link between the fog light and tail light tracks. obviously this leaves me with no rear fog - que an import style after thought under the bumper - most people think they look crap but its goin towards my import look im after





done my spare wheel in red too only a rough job as the tyre is knackered too but could be a possible for the wheels on the car


been workin hard with the old polish too its startin to look good now

The red wheels look pretty gwd you should try one on your car =]
what else you got planed for it ?

Phill=]

JDM tYt3 y0!

Tend to agree with you on the foggy.........i have a "Dangler" on the vehicross for that reason.......but the GTR has a resistor wired into one of the rears........
