After I sold that I picked this up.

The kit was poorly mounted so this ended up happening.

Soooooooooo I went ahead and just pulled it all off.

A lot more problems happened after that. Fuel pump killed itself, some other stuff. Let's just say this car was on the back of a flat bed... a lot...

Ended up selling my Godspeeds to my homie Chris so he can get off his blow out struts.

Also sold him my aero because it was on it's last leg.

After that night the car sat like this for awhile. Was dealing with some personal stuff. Was also TRYING to stack some money to start collecting parts for the car. That didn't go so well.

Nowwwww, I finally started getting some parts here and there.

https://fbcdn-sphotos-e-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xaf1/v/t1.0-9/10445115_824488290947364_467665445619481401_n.jpg? oh=00805c9874be6f45b825a6bd020f774d&oe=553A165E&__gda__=1429682720_271a8f50eac860e9e411cc2d3059842 5

Friend parted his car out so I picked up his Megan Tracks as place holders until I got my DMAX coilovers.

Then I had to park the car again because my started went out. While I parked it, decided to tuck the harness since I never got around to it.

Also got visited by my friend in his 1J MX83

After getting a new starter I finally got around to throwing the coilovers on and the starter on.

(My jack and jack stands are horrible, need to make a run to get some new stuff)

Rolled around on my friend's front wheels because my wheels were grinding on the coilovers.

Ordered some 25mm spacers

annd installed them.

Car was finally up and running and was feeling comfortable with driving etc. Ended up raining one night so we all went out. Figured out that I needed to raise my car and hated my stock steering angle.

https://fbcdn-sphotos-c-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xfa1/v/t1.0-9/10801842_824488414280685_8187611379784562961_n.jpg ?oh=b44f5d8d06291e94887dcf0f7abdb2f9&oe=55097DB9&__gda__=1425713551_536b4b1d5d7968f39b1ab2d18b10af4 f

Ended up picking up some 30mm extended FLCAs.

https://fbcdn-sphotos-a-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xap1/v/t1.0-9/10868174_824488434280683_4120262992857042943_n.jpg ?oh=73fed1ce13753143357966d5a93cc5af&oe=5536C8F9&__gda__=1429786661_ab8d8b24b0d998f61dfc7b08f35c61e b

Now i'm just waiting patiently until I get the money to continue getting my steering angle modded, getting all my front and rear arms annnnnd also piecing together my KA-T stuff. I don't expect anyone to read this or get any enjoyment out of it but hey, decided to post this anyway. Looking forward to adding more too this as the parts and cash come rolling in. Stay tuned.

I see a marine corps sticker on the back of the corolla, are you in the dep program?

I am a former marine, just got out actually

[CamberWear]

Hope you're ready for copious amounts of negative camber with those 30 mil lcas... I certainly can't wait. I'd look into fortifying your suspension further than just coilovers and angle kitz if you plan on sliding that thing a lot.

[Devocat]

it looked so good with aero

[angel mkiv]

If you don't have a lot of money at least with whatever you do please take pride in it and don't hack it together.you can do things the right way without a lot of money. This car is in decent shape to still turn out really nice.just tired of seeing these cars getting ruined left and right.with that said looking forward to your plans

Aren't you supposed to be making the car better?

Dad and grandpa both served. I got DQ'd because of asthma sadly. Semper Fi.

Slowing working on it lol. Waiting until HotRoad comes back in stock on GTR-garage so I can start pricing stuff and saving up. This car is going to be a lot better than it is. I hate the way it looks, problem is money.

Slowly piecing it back together. I hate the way the car looks but I rather drive it the way it looks now instead of the aero I had falling off and breaking. I plan on investing in a HotRoad kit down the road once I'm done getting al my suspension stuff handled. Thank you for the kind words.

Zilvia needs to have stricter guidelines on build threads.... This one sucks; as do most of them on here lately.

Car still sucks pretty bad. Had a full kit on here for awhile then blew it up. Working towards finishing my Duce kit.

G33s, Battle version tension rods, and basic lame stuff is all that's new. Have a kid on the way so not much has changed. Figured i'd still post about this gay thing.

[gbaby2089]

If you're broke and have a kid on the way...sell this POS.

Thanks for your concern fam, but I already got a bunch of money stored and a daily. Selling this has crossed my mind but meh. I rather rustle your jimmies more.
