8th Gen Corolla Showoff Thread 2.0

Tried to get a rental, dudes insurance said they couldn't do this because the investigation isn't complete and they can't prove their client hit me. Supposedly there was a Tahoe in between the truck and I. My insurance company is now handling my case and has got the ball rolling with my rental and got the car out of the tow yard, and taken to the same body shop my green 99 went to. I was working on getting the stock stuff together so that I could make a fast swap over at the body shop. I kept almost everything I believe.. Everything down to the lug nuts. The only thing I can't find are the front upper spring perch's (the piece under the strut mount). It's either on my car, or I threw it away. I'm almost 90% sure it's not on my car though. I was hoping to get the stock suspension together and go to the bodyshop and swap everything, but I'm lacking that part. Looks like I will have to buy the car back from the insurance company, tow it back to my house and start picking it apart. Then I will scrap the shell to a junkyard or the highest paying redneck around here who wants it for scrap metal... Just an update

Was that the white one I saw smashed a couple of days ago???[/quote]


yeah, the one with camber, the 98 ve with 01 front

Dude, how about find a rear ended 01 rolla, any trim, get the supension and put it back to the car to save your trouble buying it back, and swap everything in the shop

Not sure what you're saying

Not really feeling the wheels, but they're for sale anyways. =P

Matt - Hope you get everything worked out man. My buddy just got into his 3 accident this year. Shit sucks.

The wheels ARE different. IMO, they would look good if the car was raised up a hair with meaty tires. If you keep it slammed, I'd get the old ones back on.. Still sexy though. Thanks for the kind words.

my idea is finding a crashed corolla for part out, any trim level should be fine, get their suspension and whatever stock part needed for your car, and swap it for the modified parts in your wrecked S, to save the trouble buying back the car lol

I've been looking for these wheels since forever! I think they compliment the car really well. Finally put back the side skirts and rear valence. I need to wash my car, stupid California drought..

I'm not sure if I could ever get on the meaty tire trend. I like my rubber band tires and low height lol.

Oh I see, original plan was to take all the stock crap from the Silver car and swap it before the insurance company took it from the bodyshop. I've got bigger issues to worry about now....

Those look good. Are they FN1ORC?

Thanks brotha, no they're Kosei K1's. Super light wheels. Whats the issue with the insurance company now?

Least of my worries right now, but as of now my insurance company has taken care of everything. Once they track down who REALLY hit me, they will send them a bill for everything.

I agree Gold, but I'm selling them right now so these wheels will do until I figure out what I want for 2K15.

Well thats good man, I hate having to deal with insurance. Wait, I thought that truck rear ended you?

those are nice rims but look better on evos imo, our cars look good with a nice deep lip
like these.. Put some nice beefy streched tires on em with a lil camber and poke and call it a DEY!!

Not a fan of Rota Grids. I like real wheels.

hahah well if its more money you wanna spend then how about these?

Work Meisters are dope. But I'm leaning more towards BBS RS's.

I really like how those rims fit your cart. I think they compliment it really well also. I've always liked those wheels, wouldn't getting some either.

I'm finally back on the forums (for now) haha. Been busy with school but for everyone I'm not on Facebook with, here is the status of the ride now. Supercharged at 14psi with a 51/49 mix of water/meth injection w/ 440cc Lotus Exige injectors all tuned with E-Manage blue for now. Numbers aren't very strong but the car is very different. 190bhp/153tq which equates to 142whp/153tq after the 25% automatic drivetrain loss...... = ghey. Anyways going 5spd soon with a stage 2 clutch and chromoly flywheel to really cut the drivetrain loss and get the most out of the supercharger. If all goes well I should be ready for Toyotafest 2015.....Yeehaw!

Thank you brotha, they're light and cheap wheels. Perfect for dailying.

Can you help me with my 5 speed swap in the near future?

'

Where did you get the injectors and how much were they if you don't mind me asking.
