Ended up using metal immersions in tawa and they were really good. $80 per wheel centre.

There are a lot of stolen cars turning up in Porirua these days. I'm down in Tawa and they get discovered quite often aye.

Matt

I'm going to go to steam and sand in Porirua tomorrow and ask them about getting the centres done and see what they are worth.

Matt

Hey team,

I have stripped apart a pair of my Volk racing 3 piece wheels as the centres need repainting/ coating. Who do people reccommend in wellington and what do you guys thing it would cost? It's just two 14inch centres

Matt

Just saw your reply James. Yes it's Rodney. He is our Operations Manager at Bidvest Foodservice.

Crossmember lego is not that easy unfortunately, normally lots of cutting and welding needed. If you look up Sheepers RA28 on Oldschool you can see what it took to get an *E70 (might have been *E86?) rack into that, which is actually a reasonably common conversion. I got really lucky with my TA63 ...

What about in ohario valley ?

I had my MR stored there for a couple of years.

It secured and alarmed, has an electric gate

Fully enclosed and dry.

Its high security, you wont be able to work on it their, and you will have to arrange with the property owners if you need some thing from it etc ...

Post up some measurements of the crossmember in your car, including the LCA mount points. I have KE70 (same as AE86) and TA63 crossmembers I can check for you. You are likely to find it is easier to mount a rack to your current crossmember, or have a dig through http://www.toymods.org ...

The crossmembers are all different with different engine mounts, steering racks, powersteering racks etc. mine currently runs a horrible steering box setup and I have a funny feeling that the dump pipe off the turbo will foul on the steering box.

Hey guys,

So some of you will know I want to put a powersteering setup into my corona and I was wondering what 80s series toyotas have powersteering and share the same 4bolt crossmember setup? A bit of playing around will be had to get all the suspension geometry correct for cert purposes. I was ...

Picked up my shortened hilux diff setup for 4 link from Mainfreight. Came from Tauranga and I got it for $250. Pretty stoked!

Bought some coilovers from trademe to take apart and make custom coilovers for my corona.

Oh and then I bought another tt132. This one looks to be in much better condition then my ...

All brakes do work but $730 just seems pricey. I'm sure I can get it done for around 600 somewhere

Will flick him a message now bro

I want the whole car. I can put a 3t in it and thoughts were to repaint it and have a tidy run around while I build my other corona.

Matt

Captain transporter is $735 including GST.

Hey guys,

I have found another tt132 corona in CHCH that I'm after and it will be a rolling body. Who should I use that won't cost me a fortune? I had a quote of $730 incl gst as it's not driveable.

Any ideas are welcomed.

Matt

SOLD IT! Corolla is gone. Money in the bank and the new owner collect her tomorrow. I have had XSVWGN/XSVTOY for the last 8years so it's sad to see it go but all good things come to an end.

Matt

That so unfortunate!!!
