TEST FITTING:







OFF TO THE PAINT SHOP: 9/16/2008

 

 

well since my car is still at the body shop....

thought i'd start polishing up and cleaning up some stuff, and get it ready for the car when it gets back... so yea here is my collection...

 

Good stuff, make sure you boost it and slam it ... cause it's definitely rolling high at the moment.

 

 

dont know about boosting it....but ITBing it.... and oh yea.. it will be slammed my friend!!! haha...

thanks for the love man....

 

Wow looks like a sweet build!

 

Looking good

 

thanks guys...... yea it's been fun... just waiting to get the car back from the paint shop.... hopefully it will be end of this month....

 

Looks like fun!

moar

 

anyway you can do an independent rear suspenssion???? cause that that **** would be comp[lete in the power/handeling department. None the less awesome build.

 

How high is that tranny tunnel going to be while sitting down? It looks pretty tall? Anyways, this is looking like an awesome build deffinetely subscribed if VB lets me... stupid thing.

 

ITB's will work. Just remember it's hard to pump out a lot of power with ITB's. Not sure what your power goals are.

 

Enjoy????????????????????? I hate u Dude that's one sweet looking celica, I'm looking for one my self but they are very hard to find in the east coast. It is a bad a$$ build and good luck with it . I'm working my self on my AE86 GT-s Hatch F20c powered and can't wait to get it done right know is at the body shop.

Mad props to you my friend

 

What color are you gonna paint this bad boy?

 

you dont need power when you lugging over 500lbs less then a stock S2K....

 

yea that would be nice.... but it should be cool.... ill be running ae86 LSD third member and axles so that should be fine.... wish i had disc brakes in the rear too.....

yea pretty tall tranny.... it should still be ok though.. a little tall but when carpet goes over it it should be fine....


it's going to be a weekend car / show car..... so i dont need much power.... just cruising power....


dude i HATE YOU TOO!!! hahaha... just kidding.... but yea thanks for the love man... yea east coast is really hard to find that is in good condition...usually they are all rusted... good luck.... keep in touch with the ae86 -> f20c powered... that should be nice....


looks like you my friend are going to have to wait on that one.... ill post up some teaser pix as soon as i get it back from the body shop.... hehehe...

yep yep.... true that man...

 

but why did you choose to go with the AE86 rear diff instead of the stronger Celica/supra differ which has way beefier axles to handle the power....

ill bet $ you will bust the sprider gears on the diff first

This car is a corolla correct? What year?

 

nice build!!

 

yes that is correct....79 supra rear end is WAY BEEFIER....but it is longer in length...... so with 15x7 0 offset wheels the rear wheels will stick out pass the body...which means that i will need fender flares <--- which i do not want to do.... so that's y im "JUST going with the ae86 LSD pumkin and axles.... which is better than the 73 factory stuff...

i have a friend with the same setup with the ae86 rear end. and yep he's gone through 5 rear ends already....

it's a celica....1973....




thanks for the love guys..... it will be fun....
