CorollaForum

I am the lucky owner of 2002. Toyota Corolla TS, for 1 year exactly. Several modifications during that time:
- BC racing Coilovers -70mm all around now
- front CF style steel strut bar
- c/f muffler, now cut JDM style
- rear fenders slightly pulled & rolled
- Pilot wheel spacers 2x20mm and 67mm studs (30mm longer)
I had to put 5mm rear spacers till I sort the rubbing
Several different wheels/tires combinations till now, latest summer & winter are:
- MS Design 2-piece 8x18" et45, GoodYear Eagle F1 215/35/18
- OEM 6x16" et45, partially colored black, Continental WinterContact 195/60/16
- Muteki open end wheel lug nuts
- rear spoiler TTE look
- wind deflectors
- front EBC solid discs with EBC red stuff ceramic pads
- rear cheap Japanese solid discs with EBC red stuff ceramic pads ...
and waaaay too many pictures But, I won't post all of them here, and now, of course. Here are some of the latest:

















Well, enough said for now

I've cut rear wheel spacers from 20mm to 15mm



I've tried my friends wheels...Borbet T 9x16 et30...so now I know which dimensions I need for some new wide 17" or 18" wheels

See me, hear me...

He, nice ride man
Love your rims and exhaust sound

welcome here

nice TS you've got there!! i liked the first rims better

sound is nice

do you have other plans or stays it this way?

I am planning to change rims for some wide Rota wheels 17" or 18"...probably 9x17"

These 9x16 where just for a try...to find out what dimensions and offset I need...

Now thats what is called lowering!!

Stunning ride dzvini!

Hey there, haven't i seen you before, on toyota owners club forum UK?
Nice rolla indeed, only too bad of the rubbing in the rear arches.
Let them get rolled, or are they already rolled?

Grtz

Welcome! Wicked ride you got there. Finaly some decent offset!!

Hey Noedel Yes, I am a member of Toyota UK forum, also CorollaTS forum, German Toyota forum, USA 9th generation forum, Stancewoks forum...and a bunch of them here in Serbia

I've rolled rear arches a bit


original look


rolled look


with a 20mm spacer


I couldn't find any Corolla e12 that has wider wheels than 8". Maybe some of You people know for such example?!

My plan is to buy 8,5x17 or 9x17 or 9,5x17 or 8,5x18 or 9x18 or 9,5x18

Here it is shopped...


Rota d-force 9x17

Rota gtr 9,5x17

Rota d-force 9x18

Rota gtr 9,5x18

Nice ride you got there.
According to your ride height 17" is big enough I think.

The photoshop with the gtr's in orange looks awesome.

I didn't put GTRs, those are GRIDs, but You get the point, right?

I really like this look...

very nice ride man!:D

That's a very nice looking E12 TS!!

Welcome! Very nice car!!!!

Nice.
My rear arches are rolled too (completely) and i've also got my rear arches wider for 1cm.
A biiiig difference ofc

Grtz

Something new in the engine bay...Cheap but works fine

hey there, very very very nice TS you got there totally the style I love. Just dont like the cupped rims that much.
The orange one's look awesome

Nice looking Corolla TS you have, but the rear silencer wouldn't be my choice. I think that's the TMS rear silencer for the Corolla E12 looks great.
Unfortunately there's isn't a rear silencer for the Auris as there is for the Corolla 12 otherwise I would buy and fit a TMS rear silencer on my Auris.

Long time no see. Nothing new with the car but some fresh pictures

nice pictures!

Few weeks ago I bought one more summer set...Kosei Rom 7x17" et35 with big ugly tires 205/50/17...



Then I decided to make some changes



2 colors for trying...Piaggio green metallic & Kawasaki candy green metallic

I choose Kawasaki Candy



And few days ago they are done...

one word: Awesome !!!

Can't wait to see how they look under your car. I think it's great.

Damn dude, get a smaller tire on those wheels!
Looks like a jeep again lol
Nice colour, i'm also gona repaint my summer wheels, for the moment the colour will be yellow

Grtz

Last week i was joking to noedel for painting his wheels green
but actualy this looks realy nice

here is a picture (photoshop) http://img204.imageshack.us/img204/2299/groena.jpg

but what happend with your front bumper ?

Cheers Bart

Hmm, actually i'm not a big fan of these green wheels on your rolla
But maybe that's because they got alot of spokes, i'm more for 5 - 6 spoke rims

Grtz

My favorite wheels are OZ Superturismo and something like Work, Advan, Rays, Rota or similar...

I will probably sell these 17" Kosei and 18" MS Design and then buy a new decent set that I like

I had a small accident...but nothing really serious...bumper is already fixed (by myself ) and new oil pan and front cross member sub-assy are coming soon...headlights are ok but I removed them for easier fixing

Greetings from Serbia

Took my car back from repair shop...so...let's see what's new

In the meantime a new clutch set Exedy came:



Engine oil and oil filter changed:



Energy Polyurethane bushes for front & rear engine mounts...only fron one installed (I need some modifications on rear polys or I'll have to buy rear engine mounts from facelift model



New thermostat - factory is 82 degrees, TRD is 76



New engine coolant - 2L:



K&N panel filter (for winter time) ::)



I've found paint code for my car - 1D2, and went to repaint my new bumper, but, there was at least 17 totally different types/shades of that Thunder Cloud Grey Metallic paint



I've repaired my old bumper...well, modified it a little bit because a friend gave me a new one...just for a joke...to go with my Kawasaki Green Kosei rims I've also made a new spoiler lip out of some plastic L profile I will buy a new one for a second bumper...







Plastic under engine covers and front fender liners where also broken and smashed so I fixed them all, so now they look almost like new



All "plastics" together :



I've sold MS Design 18" rims with tires!

But I left Kosei Rom 17" for now...



I took my friend's 16" wheels to try them and possibly buy them...but I will probably leave my OEM wheels, because they look slightly bigger, I think

Yesterday's "going up" before winter time...rear 4cm, front 3cm:



Step by step...rear...lifting up...4x5 treads (4x1cm)...tightening...cleaning...protection:



Before: After:

Today's Gathering:



I'm planning to protect my paint a little with polish/vax soon:
