What's this!? Aaron's 93 Corolla Build Thread

Thanks guys!

@Kenny, the price is what I am really thrilled about, but it certainly does make my car look better

@Chris, what can I say hahah, dirt roads everywhere here. And I'm still considering it as a future possibility.

lol i wouldnt let something so dirty come near my car even if it is another toyota hahaha

yours is a great looking car nice and clean too

Hahah that's fair, though getting your car dirty where I live is gonna happen no matter how hard you try to prevent it. But thanks dude!

Also I think I forgot to mention that I got new tires for the ride, Kumho Ecsta AST (KU25). 195/50/r16

I think Scott might have a heart attack living where you are Aaron haha

I think so too hahah

wow aaron cars coming along nicely.and both rims and ride height are looking great

Thanks man!

Car looking nice aaron, like those rims. Like chris said earlier a drop from stock height will gave it a nice stance and i have to gave you kudos for keeping ur car clean despite all the dirt roads in your area

Thanks dude! And yeahh haha a lot of people have been bringing that up I will get to er soon hopefully. And hahah I do what I can, though it being dirty doesn't bug me, seeing as where most of my pics are taken

I'm sorry to say guys... today I was an a car accident. And it didn't turn out so well for me...

What happened was I was going from my house for about a 5 minute drive to pick up my cousin and mother some coffee as they were working double shifts, as they are both nurses. Anyways I was going over a hill, and I looked to the right, at a restaurant where my friend works as sometimes he sits on the side during breaks, I looked up and noticed a woman tapped on her brakes but nothing else. I looked down to grab my ipod to plug it in and when I looked up the woman hard braked infront of me, I slammed on my brakes and swerved to avoid her but slammed into the back of her Corolla, causing her to bump into the Focus infront of her. The two cars were waiting for another car that had stopped on the road, and the woman infront of me took no responsibility for hard breaking. It is mostly my fault for looking down, but it really sucks. I got a $500 ticket and 6 demerit points. 3 more and I can never drive again.





If anybody needs parts, message me as I am going to the yard tomorrow to get all that I want off of it.

I think my heart missed a beat just now seeing that first pic.... no way dude!! It can't be true!

So you're not fixing it? What is the plan?

And jeez, on top of that, they give you the fine and points? ouchy.

Let this be a warning to you all with electronic devices who aren't paying attention all the time! Don't let this be you!

Sorry, so sad to see Aaron. I think you picture should automatically win this month.

I almost cried just looking at it after...

I want to fix it, if I can. But a rep from my insurance company is supposed to look at it tomorrow and say "whether or not it's worth it" to fix it. If they say no, I can't take it from the yard. In which case I'll just part what I can.

Do let us know what they say!!

Dang man. I'm really sorry about it. The important thing is that you're still alive. Cars are just materials that can be replaced. You can't. Its times like these that you just gotta be grateful that it could've been much worse.

so sad to see this aaron. But as kenny said you are alive and well..

I really feel sorry for you. Pleasr keep us updated as to what happens with insurance rep

Thanks guys. I'm just grateful that no one, including myself, was hurt. I'll let you all know what the Insurance guy says in the morning, should be calling me fairly early so I'll come on here and let ya all know. Will definitely need a few things if I am allowed to rebuild her.

very sorry to see your loss bro i hope it gets repaired.

I can't believe this has happened to you bro. After what you have done to the car recently and this happens sigh but am glad and happy you are not hurt and so are the others who was involve in it, as kenny said cars can be replace not you. Ask Ishaq what happen about 2 years and some months ago, I lost my fisrt corolla ( my pride and joy ) to a guy who lost control and ran stright into me with his car ( the pics where gruesome ) Car was not salvageable so i end up parting it out, but now i have a even better corolla. I hope your's is fixable but if not thers a saying we have here " old things bring new things " keep us posted bro.

Noooooo! Aw man. That is soo sad to see I feel for you man, that sucks that you not only lost your car but got a ticket and 6 demerit points. I hope you run into some good luck or get a good deal on insurance.

How is the condition of your suspension? I may be interested in your struts if they are undamaged. Though it looks like the front ones may of taken a beating.

Such a sad sight! sorry man

Haha thanks David, it sucks. And I tried to take my rear ones off, but they only gave me an hour to take everything off the car and I didn't have time to take em off, I knew you'd be interested D:

they arent even allowing u to take parts from ur car freely why bro

Cause the way the tow truck/wreckers do things here is stupid haha.

man.so what did u take out in hour id suggest to keep the steering with u as it was ur brothers car and its his memory to u the steering would be a good memory

Awww that totally sucks! That seems unfair that you were only given an hour to get your parts off. Hopefully you were able to get your rims and tires off.

I kind of know what your going through. When I totaled my sunfire (and half of myself (2 broken legs)), I was only given a week to get somebody to take off anything I wanted. Luckily the only thing decent I had in that car was a sound system and I managed to have my dad take off the amp which still works and is in my corolla now (though it kicks out sometimes lol). but still, I think you should be given more time to get what you want from your vehicle after a wreck.

Any good news from your insurance yet?

He gave me a chain and a necklace of his when I was little, first thing I did when I got the car was put the chain around the rearview and hang the necklace in the trunk. I took those off the car and have them hanging on a nail in my room until I get a new ride.

It really does doesn't it, but yeah I got my rims and tires, all my personal stuff, all my speakers, headunit, subwoofer, amp, wiring, strut bar, intake, battery, whatever else I could in the time period.

I definitely think I should have been given more time to get stuff from my car, but whatever, I'm done with it now. And noo nothing yet, waiting for a call this coming week.
