    I don't know if you would consider this an update, so I'll just call it an "update". Test fit the Longchamps after I got my huge hub rings in from Lithuania.... 54.1 to 71.6 geez


    Also, gonna try to order coilovers Friday

    World's worst Tercel

    What's up guys, been a lurker on here forever, but decided to make an account so I could make this thread to keep track of where my car goes. This is gonna be a slow build...

    A little back story, mid January 2015 I picked up a clean 1989 LS400... but the thread is not about that car... here is it anyway so you can get an idea of my kind of style. This is my stupid low, static, daily driven LS




    Sadly on November 6th, a lady in a Jeep ran a stop sign, t-boned me, and totaled the car. I drove a rental fiesta around for almost a month, and in the beginning of December I picked up this nice 95 Tercel for $1500 on craigslist.
    .
    For the first week I had it, I changed the brakes, got new ignition wires and coils, new spark plugs, new O2 sensors, new EGR valve, I upgraded the vacuum lines from 7/64th to 5/32nd, and I ordered all new motor mounts. That pretty much takes care of any running problems it had so I can move on to the fun stuff

    also, my paint almost exactly matches the catfish haha


    About a week after getting it running perfectly, I found a nice pair of 14x6 A3A's in Japan for cheap, so I picked them up... and a couple days after that I found a pair of 14x6.5 Longchamps from the same place and grabbed those too. Gonna be running different wheels for a while until I can find a full set of something haha

    this was after I cleaned them up a bit and removed most of the rust and corrosion

    and heres the first test fit of the Advans. I have to run a 25 mm adapter because my car is 4x100 and the wheels are 4x114.3...


    Plans: pick up a set of Largus coilovers. That is what I had on my LS and I was extremely happy with them. Thinking about a pair of Bride Brix or something similar. Maybe a roof rack or basket... the roof clear coat is coming off and it looks like crap so I'd like to cover it somehow. What do you guys think so far? I need you to be patient with me as money is not a luxury I have much of
