| Just joined in hopes of answers. I'm also on toyotanation. What i recently purchased is a 96 Corolla DX 5sp manual. Love the car and it has already received the front bz jdm headlights and C grille. Ive also outfitted the usdm is300 muffler to a straight 2 1/4 piping. Plans in the near future is a 20v and still want to keep it stock looking as possible here in california.
I do how ever have a question regarding the jdm sprinter e100 taillights. Are they an easy swap over to our usdm corollas? Ive read a few things about the conversions being done in the phillipines, and im sure their ae100 is no different then ours. There is also no write ups so if anyone can let me kno, ill greatly appricate it. | |

| Hey welcome to the family! Any vids of your exhaust? How much did you pay for the muffler and piping all together? I'm think about redoing mine to get the car more quiet. And post some pics of your car when you get the chance! Wish I could help you with the taillights but I have no clue. I've seen pics of the swap but that's really it. | |

| LOL.. sorry.. work got in the way. ill post some pictures tomorrow. Yea all i see is pictures of the sprinter tails being done. Here is a link to one done. cardomain.com/ride/2974009/1995-toyota-corolla
I just recently got done with the JDM style headlights with a C grille from the man KIWI. Currently stock ride height with MRR f5 15x8 +25 painted black.
The exhaust system is 2.25 all the way with cat delete and resonator delete into an is300 muffler. The is300 muffler is bigger so some mods had to be done with it. I just wanted a stock look but still retain a 2.25 piping all the way for my 20v bt swap soon. It sounds raspy but livable and I sure can feel the difference. I paid 20.00 for the used muffler and 40.00 in total piping. I have a welder and a brother who is a skilled welder. LOL.
Sorry guys for the late replies but I'm sure to keep in touch. | |

| LOL.. its forceum deka 195/50r15 on 15x8. They look good and handle well for the price. Got some Toyo RA1 sitting in the garage if I decided to do a crazy 5x114.3 conversion. Here is my other set of prime Compomotive cx-500 15x9 -3 wheels ( picture is only a teaser of what a 15x11 would look like. I'm hating the black rattle can spray wheels now. =( . Thanks for the inputs guys. Its still in the works... I'm focusing my attention to my g35 atm as it deserves some major tune up and clutch. I will keep updating as I go. The g35 15x11 -35 teaser ( real 3pc Compomotive) | |

| Hello mate! Do you have more pics of your Corolla in the setup from the two photos showed on the Forum? (I mean exterior) I also have black 1995 Rolla and I wonder about some change - your wheels, wind deflectors, JDM headlights and trunk spoiler suits me one hundred percent | |

| Sorry I don't have any pictures on the forum atm. My plans of 20v is a toss up. Thinking about giving the rolla to the GF and getting a AE92 instead. This might be my stopping point on mods? Ill keep you guys updated. | |

| Hey, welcome to the forum! I'm a bit late though, if you are already giving up on it lol. I thought it was coming along nicely.
And those tail lights definitely are NOT a direct swap. The body is completely different. Either you'd have to swap the entire rear end on (metal cutting and welding) or work some magic with custom body work. | |
