corolla in the states

The guys over at corollateam.tk (i think they are from USA) have some crazy AE80s running around over there. Kudos to them and their rides, i managed to get some inspiration for their site btw.

Cool air

Have been driving around in the rolla without aircond for quite sometime because my halfcut had a faulty compressor.

So after 2 long months of waiting, another one had finally arrived!

Getting ready to give her some cool-ness!

Next up - bodykitting, paintjob, some minor stuff

Doodles

The lack of resources has been keeping me from restoring my wifey,

hence the lack of updates, heres something to kill some time.

Riced Wife of mine xD

Shoes

dayum, if only they made these with PCD100
it'll look so flushed in the rolla

Roll-ess coRolla

Picked up a used anti-roll bar for about 100 bucks, came with the lower arms, and since my rear lower arm bushes were quite worn anyway, i took that chance to kill 2 birds with 1 gun stone

I think ill give it a nice coat of paint soon.

Oops my modified fuel tank shown. Its a AE92 Trueno tank.

Next step, my door panels. Hmmmm....

Formula D

Vid i took in Formula D during the past weekend. Event was all good, only judging as expected was unfair. Oh well, its called GOODYEAR Formula D for a reason, Toyo/Federal/Achillies/Kumho dont really stand a chance unless luck is on their side.

Anyhow give it up for underdog Mervyn Nakamura of Team Federal who is also sponsored by CTech

Interior inspirations

Was hunting for some door panels online for the AE80/82, needed some inspirations to custom my own doors. So here are the results, stolen from various websites.

Clean n simple single tone coloured, spotting a 6.5" component set, probably fiber made pods

A lil more tricky, 2 toned double 6" speaker pods

Another clean looking one, but bright colours are out of my options, going full black/red for the interior, with white LEDs lighting up the dark.

This looked suitable, althought i think the rear side of the panels can be utilised, adding in bottle holders or compartments for storage

So the final verdict? Soon to come out, as I've finally finished my 6 months of internship, now on super duper long break before i begin my degree. Meaning i got heckuva long time to restore my rolla.
