Finally was able to get pictures of my completely stock Corolla Wagon. wat do you guys think? if u have any suggestions on what future mods i can make den don b shy point dem out. But if some of u r wonderin y i have a pic of da quarter panel im just showin da work i did wit da rust i no u guys don no wat it used to look like but lets say that it was all gone from the rust but of course the rust is all gone now. But anyways ill b having interior pics and engine pics soon.
nice i don usually see too many of the wagons around here. since i have had the car i probably have seen only five wagons. and i heard there hot cars so i had to get an alarm system for it and it also helps me sleep at night.
Thanx everybody but im still not done yet. I got the gas tank dis weekend and da fog lights. Den ill clean up the engine and paint da valve cover. ill try to do as much as i can if the weather lets me. But if i can dat means more pics. one question for anybody dat wants to give der opinion. I got some honda civic si rims and i was thinkin of puttin dem on my car (because that is the only set of rims i got besides more steelies) but i need tires for da civic rims. Now do u think i should get tires for da civic rims or sell the civic rims and just save up for some betta rims or should i keep the civic rims for the winter months and get some other rims for the summer months? And if u think i should get betta rims what size and brand? Ok so i asked more dan one question lol.

and for PhatRoyale to me there is no budget right now cuz i want to see peoples opinions since im kinda clueless on what to buy. but i also want to lower the wagon so if anybody has any suggestions on how much i should lower it dat would help on my search for da look im shootin for. but also consider its a daily driver and i have snow so ya. but also da civic rims dont have da emblems except 2 of dem but ill cover it up wit a toyota logo.
There was someone else on this board who had a hunter green wagon, he did a really good job on his.

o.. but i think i saw that one. was it da one that had the rabbit go under the hood and chew up alot of the wiring? but i have seen alot of nice ones. one guy put a redtop BEAMS on a wagon. u prob seen the wagon. i got alot of work to do to b as good as dem and a lot of research since i don see alot of ppl do anythin to a 7afe engine. so ill keep this engine and make it as good as i can. idk wat i can do to it but well see.
Yea, modernage is one of them. I've seen the BEAMS wagon also. Killer engine swap. I suggest you do like you said. You got the rims already. I wouldn't put them on but to have as a spare is not a bad idea to have for some winter wheels. I got mine from VictoriaTire.com. Got a pretty good selection of styles.
And for the suspension, make sure you get some good stiff shocks. You will need them due to the extra weight.
ya but i cant afford them enkeis. so mayb i should think of a budget.. plus i want to do somethin else than da enkei rpfs i have seen those rims too much but puttin dem on da wagon was different but ill keep lookin around for rims for now ill use the si rims dey look betta dan the steelies. Ill look at infinitwheels.com for a unique set of rims. dey got a really small variety but alot of rare and nice rims but prob is der very expensive. Decisions decisions.. ill just do my research. for now i gotta focus on da drop and da si rims for now. but thanx for da advice.
I got the fog lights done finally. They came from a 1990-1992 Celica Gt. I had to do alot of cutting. at first i was skeptical of whether it would look nice o not but i thought might as well finish wat i started and c wat happens. Ended having a great result and i liked it alot and ended up painting the bottom grill a lil further. i ended up having so much fun i started painting the horn black and i just started jumpin into other stuff. i wanted to do other things but it ended up gettin late and my parents were tellin me to stop cuz da neighbors r old and dey complain cuz da noise and everythin. but if it wasnt for my dad dis project would have not been done. So what do you guys think? i still have to wire dem but dat will b done tomorrow. and about the gas tank i couldnt find any in da junk yard cuz all were worse den mine so i have to order a new one.
