Nice, you finally got it! How's the handling now?

Subject: Re: Finally lowered my car :P Sun Sep 22, 2013 3:12 pm

Looks good!

gold94corolla: Thanks, the handling is alot better with stock shocks and 30mm loweringsprings, it feels more "secure" (I dont have a better word), the plan is to lower it more next year.

monkeypower102: Thank you, the next step is to get the front alignment(??) checked so that my car will stop eating tires and get the drop written in the cars documents.

I am going for 7,5x15 ET25 Ronal LS or 7x15 ET28 ATS Cup wheels next year.

lower it more is defo the way to go mines lowered 40mm all around on 16's seems grand but the 15's may get you a smoother ride but my 16's are perfect wouldn't go near anything bigger.

I want my car to be lowered 65mm front and back.

Subject: Re: Finally lowered my car :P Fri Oct 25, 2013 3:20 am

Subject: Re: Finally lowered my car :P Fri Oct 25, 2013 4:58 am

@noodlekid: Here she is lowered on some 16's (7Jx16 ET35) and I still wanna go down another 30mm and I want to put another lip on it to see how low it will be after that is done. (after these pics were taken I have replaced the nuts with some stock silver ones)

Trying to be slammed??? Damn it see your about that life man. Good luck and may you scrap, not a lot....

Subject: Re: Finally lowered my car :P Sat Oct 26, 2013 1:10 pm

I'm tired of driving stock cars so the rolla is my first real project of the 19 cars I've had since I got my license 10 years ago, it's currently in storage and wont be driven until the end of spring which is why I'm trying to find a cheap car to use as a daily beater..

So many plans, not enough money Razz

Hey Yank curious is the bumper light washers regular your way or was it a option? maybe not washers

Subject: Re: Finally lowered my car :P Sun Oct 27, 2013 8:33 am

Hey Argew, the bumper light washers were fitted at the Toyota factory but on the fx bumper I got a few days ago they are getting removed for a cleaner look.

Subject: Re: Finally lowered my car :P Sun Oct 27, 2013 5:20 pm

Really I take em off your hands if you don't want them .. How much

Subject: Re: Finally lowered my car :P Mon Oct 28, 2013 2:28 am

I dont know how much, I do know that sending them to New Zealand would cost a fortune.. I'll have to find out how that will cost first.

Subject: Re: Finally lowered my car :P Mon Oct 28, 2013 6:46 am

Is this the complete unit or just the rubber washers .....thanks

Subject: Re: Finally lowered my car :P Mon Oct 28, 2013 6:55 am

Rubber washers and rubber tubing.

Subject: Re: Finally lowered my car :P Mon Oct 28, 2013 6:59 am

lol didn't know you were on

Yeah kinda thought so can you get the switch or is it on the stalk?

Subject: Re: Finally lowered my car :P Mon Oct 28, 2013 7:25 am

I have the switch in my car but i will try and get another one.

Subject: Re: Finally lowered my car :P Wed Oct 30, 2013 5:07 am

@agrew24 you can just splice them into the factory tubing so they'll run when you use your windshield washer

Subject: Re: Finally lowered my car :P Wed Oct 30, 2013 4:53 pm

Thanks mate great idea will do if Yankee can't find a switch .....like to have a switch think click put some washers on his so decided to follow or copy him seen them on ae92 over here but not on ae101.

Subject: Re: Finally lowered my car :P Fri Nov 01, 2013 2:35 am

Sorry Argew but I'm not having any luck finding a switch or making sense of the ups website Sad

Subject: Re: Finally lowered my car :P Mon Nov 04, 2013 4:00 pm

Just send the rubber washers can make rest up over here will take advise and splice into window wiper washer. Again thanks for the advise.

Sending through UPS is expensive why not use local post shop
