Patrick's rebuild topic

[PatrickAE86]

Well then.. think it's about time to start a project topic to please you guy's

I bought te corolla from bubble drift in september '09

it looked like this..



After a few weeks the exhaust came off.. (damn speedbumps..)
so i installed a HKS Legal 60 or 62mm (don't know anny more )


Jasma approval


after that.. it started to get more interesting (i think)
i bought some BT itb's and T3 intake manifold + stacks




but the T3 manifold did not fit the BT itb's nice.. so i took an air tool to fix that problem

as it was from T3 (should fit ST itb's)

and the perfict fit for the BT ones


these are not installed yet..

in may i went to the 'green hell' here some pic's




then i upgraded my brakes for the wilwood 4pod with 280mm rotors




and now.. she's off the road for restoration and engine rebuild..

interiour out..

Serieus met die bak bezig gaan man, ding is tof!

[isac]

Nice.

Do you have pictures from brake calipers brackets, are they custom made? I have the same exhaust, expensive, but sounds very good!

[PatrickAE86]

Isac, the brackets came with the wilwood set.

You only have to grind about 2mm of the stock bracket and then its straigt fit :-)
