Here is my GTS for all to see.

-disclaimer for the uBER e-Critics-
I intended to build this corolla using my own personal taste and not with intentions to be a 1off Chip Foose project or a JDM gem or the ultimate Drift Machine. Everything has been done by myself in addition to some help from friends with some spare time.

Ok, here is my 1986 Corolla GTS hatchback:

JDM Kouki front bumper - ( had matching rear bumper but stolen so replacement on its way)

Antenna opening shaved on fender

Solex barrel type lock cylinders for all 3 doors

15x7 Enkei 92's on 195-50-15 ( these are 1 of the spare set of wheels for the car )

Tail lights, eyelids and corner lights smoked

Headlamps converted to house H4 high/low 8000k HID kit

Megan Racing lowering springs on Tokico Blues ( Coilovers are next )

Urethane suspension bushing kit

4AGZE out of a 89 AW11 (supercharger removed. Turbo kit being put together soon)

OBX Headers

Megan Racing Stainless Catback Exhaust

Autumn Copper paint - (Love the way it looked- Vibrant orange in bright light, dark copper in low lighting)

... that's all I can think of right now, I know there's more plus my wish list is loooong.

your car is sooo sick bro! & + rep. for you!, nice work!
hey, i was wondering if you could pm me which headlamp housings you went with and how did they perform with the hid kit??? ive been planning on doing to my ae86 for a while and havent decided what im going to do yet.
thanks.

 

didnt let me rep you.

 

Nice looking 86.

 

thanks for the compliments.

those are the ebay projectors withOUT the halo.. the ones with the halo are crap because they are plastic. The ones i have are glass and nice but they are WAY bright with the HID's. I had to point them down so that I dont blind oncoming traffic.....

 

thanks! i appreciate it. im guessing they are these, or very similar?
