Thumbs up The AE71...she's back

My build thread got deleted so I guess I'll just start where I left off. ~4 months ago, my corolla was vandalized to the point in which it couldn't be driven. Long story short- since then i have been slowly cleaning, fixing and occasionally driving her and recently did a very smoky 2nd gear burn-out.

The next day the throttle cable snapped on my way to work and it was the last straw. I was done with this horrible 4a-c. It was time for a change.

Here are a few pics to show the gradual build up











this was yesterday...



then came this guy




and a few hours later

Here's what I have left for the most part:
Relocate clutch line
setup fuel pump
acquire exhaust mani bolts/studs
MSD/coil
fuel filter
throttle cable
brake booster line
and
Wire her up and turn the key.

Bored with a broken ankle...

Really? I didnt know you had one of these guys. They are so awesome. Lightweight, lots of potential, and waay more character than ans s-chassis

new set of wheels--- 14x 7 0 offset



I also installed my new shifter, but its only for DD purposes because it blocks the hydro completely.

So I got bored on my day off and since i cant even give away my 4ac, I decided to get some welding practice done...

so using only stuf in my garage, i made a turbo setup for the 4ac.




It came out pretty nicely. Idk if it'll ever make it into a car but maybe. I hope my boredom has entertained you
