Toms body kit

Toms body kit

hey whats up guys. has anyone here installed a toms body kit before? from what i am aware of, it comes with a rear lip, side skirts and a full front bumper? i just want to know if its easy enough to work with and worth the money and effort. they are going pretty cheap off ebay and i havnt seen many rollas with them on, i was wondering if there was a reason. thanks.

I got mine from www.racingsolution.com I haven't put it on yet because I haven't painted it yet. Looks very easy to put it on though

sweet, i know someone in a car club here in vegas, that has a hook up and get parts primed and i think painted for like $3 as long as i supply the paint n shit. i think ill do it when i get my tax return.

I have a DIY for installing the skirts on my site. The rear should be easy to install as well, as long as it's not warped out of shape.

aight thanks guys. but it is true that the kit comes with a replacement front bumper right? not a lip like the rear?

Yes, the front is a full bumper.

awesome thanks vamp.

oh hey vamp, you have an auto right? what else have you done that significantly increased power in your car? Ive read a lot on your page, but right now im stuck on intake and exhaust. im thinking about getting my throttle body ported and polished, but other than that im a little stuck. without FI, id like to get a little more juice out of my ride, and u seem to know your shit, so any help is appreciated.

nitrous..

Yes, I have an auto. Right now, my setup is geared towards getting ready for my F/I setup. Some things I can suggest are getting a full pulley set (not just the alternator pulley), regrounding your car, keeping things light (no heavy systems in the trunk, unlike my ride), getting a full cat-back no bigger than 2.25" (you will lose some low end in exchange for high end), and a high stall torque convertor.

sweet, i was looking into getting a high stall torque converter a while ago, but the shops i talked to around here seemed to think i was wasting my money. no one could really tell me straight out if it was a good idea or not. do you know where i could find a full pulley set? i have looked around a lot but have failed.

I personally like my TC a lot. I noticed a good improvement with accelleration after installing it and everyone else who's driven my car has too. For pulleys, Unorthodox Racing has a full set. I think nopi.com might sell them. I'm sure other places hav them as well.

sweet. so where exactly did u get your TC? did u order it from the levelten website? or did u go to a local dealer? did u really pay over $1000 for it? sorry for so many questions!

I got mine from LevelTen for $500. I think you can get one from protorque.com for less though.

would you be able to give me like a product for the one you got from levelten? i cant seem to find a TC for $500. just the kits that they sell, but from what i see on their site, it says the TC's are going for $1,000+ did u order directly from levelten?

PTS TORQUE CONVERTER SERVICE - $498.00

nice, see i didnt think that was the actually TC, i was looking at the billet torque converter. is the kit relatively easy to install? most transmission shops will know how to do it right?

Any transmission shop can do it. It's a big pain in the ass if you do it yourself though.

thats probably what ill do. I went to the link u posted up for levelten. the one for $498 said that I would have to send my torque converter to them to be serviced. I thought they sent you a re-worked one?

No, you need to supply the TC first. Just get one from a junkyard. Once you get it upgraded, you can just simply sell your TC to the next person on the board that wants the upgrade.

ah i see how it works. how long did they take to do it? and what year corolla trans are compatible with my 99? sorry if it seems like im bugging u a lot vamp!

93 - 02 Are the same transmission.
