Ross 1989 gti-16

Hey all I’m on another part of the forum with my avensis t180 wagon. I couldn’t actually remember if I ever posted a build thread on my corolla.

 

Anyway going back to 2009 I purchased the car from my cousin and took delivery on Xmas eve.

 

 

 

 

 

As you can see it looked a tad sorry for itself. A quick clean later.

 

 

When I got the car it needed a new brake pipe so I bought a set of braided ones and replaced the whole lot.

 

Also the rear outer control arm bushes where shot so I ordered a set of poly ones from fensport and fitted those.

 

Next job was to fit a different set of wheels these were ct racing wheels called barracuda’s so I’m told.

 

 

 

The car stayed that way for sometime apart from a different set of no plates and lowered.

 

Me and a friend decided the next thing was to fit some audio.

 

 

 

Custom door pods with fusion encounter components and a pair of 12” alphasoniks the subs didn’t last long I melted the voice coils [emoji849]

 

 

The front bumper was changed for one with moulded fog lamps and washer jets with mk3 supra turbo splitter then the kit was colour coded to match the car.

 

 

The car has stayed like this for a while until 2016 I got married I decided to change up a few things. A friend of mine pinky was selling his kei force 10 wheels which were painted a custom gold colour with a green pearl

 

 

So I purchased those re lowered the car using fensport springs and changed the pin stripes to gold which is how it currently sits.

 

 

 

I’ve also had the rear box changed from twin 3” to a single 3” outward rolled one which I think suits it and has changed the exhaust note somewhat.

After a trip to the Isle of Wight September last year decided the audio had to go.

So it was all ripped out the original door cards have gone back in and this lot has been purchased to replace it.



And a double din head unit which I purchased off a friend

Hi I lent two of my original wheels to a friend and they got stolen from his garden. It’s worth a try but on Facebook there is a bloke on Garth Leslie he breaks Corollas he may have a set of wheels
