thanks for the feedback yall.
i got my tires on, wish the profile was lowar so i could gain moar stretch. but for free a cant complain.
i dont rub anymore so i think the next step is moar lowz.

working on custom side skirts and rear diffuser this weekend. might deeptint it while im at it.
other than that i need to sqeeze some ponies outta this engine. its dog-aweful slow.
maybe ill adapt a Nikki 4 barrel carb off a first gen rotary. idk yet.

ive narrowed it down to three options.
1: 4AGE silvertop 20v. open ITB's, trd equal length header. hi-comp.
2: 2JZGTE. nuff said.
3: 7MGTE. everyone disregards these engines, but with a metal head gasket and a bigger turbo, its just as capable as the 2J, but cheaper.

whatever route i take a manual trans is going with it, and an LSD rear end, might swap to independent rears with disk too.

and yeah the fenderwells look ass. might cut them out and do overflares from a Z.

few more pics: no im not from panama, but vt plates suck.

with the new tires i lost clearance. time to trim the u bolts i spose. dont wanna hook a dead squirell.

also got told by alot of people i need to fill the hole where my hood ornament was: evil ducky will pwn you.

all for now.
sat is junkyard day, ill post findings.
one moar: i found my stock 87 mr2 leather seats today...might test fit em tomorrow...

sweet project..

i reckon it would look awesome with a 'bosu' style external mounted oil cooler and with braided hoses coming out through the grill. that would be a whole lotta win.

love this pic from out last meet

[trism]

i like it.

but to pull off the ratty look it needs to be waaaaaaaaaay lower than what it is

[DutchM3S50]

Like the old JDM's just put 4AGE engine in and a LSD go for drift... (i didnt look at het story just pics)

This is pretty sick. It's got personality. Now it just needs a strong (and loud) heart!

[teh luckinator]

holy crap this thing is rusted, SO GOOD!

check out the e7 club!

watchin this! seen these all the time in the hood back in the day. philly streets were filled with these body style Toyotas, along with the 90's maximas on daytons!

[DragginWagon]

guess whos back, back again, wagons back, yutt.

threw on the nardi classicooooo. lolz.


not much new, just got her back. originally traded it for a porsche, sold that, bought a volvo, traded the volvo for the wagon back. so basically i got a free porsche lol.
now the project is back in full effect.
since last time the suspension has FINALLY settled. and im at a decent ride height, i think im gonna drop the front another inch or so to even out w/ the rear. also hacked off the muffler cuz i was getting hung up on things. (its much lower than it looks in the pics) suprisingly quiet for only having a cat to quiet things down. got a cool idea for custom exhaust, stay tuned.
peeaaaceee.
