So its been a while...

[Dimaoala]

It's been a while since I posted pictures of my car, and never updated yall with the result of my accident last month. The car has been fixed! Looks good as new! I was just too lazy to find a nice place to take a photo-shoot. Since then I've added a few mods since then!

1. Corolla got repaired!
2. New Alpine speakers swapped out with factory!
3. Roofline Spoiler Installed!
4. VVT-i Decals placed!

EDIT: Yeah i know i need to go lower! TRD Springs will be installed way later when funds come in!

Enjoy the pics!

Roof Spoiler from SportWing, purchased from eBay!









Latest Shooot!:














Alpine System!:





Plan on getting a 12" Type-R Alpine Sub when funds come in w/ another amp to power it!

The Driver:


And yeah if your wondering, I am short lol, I'm about 5'6" - 5'7"? Oh and yes i'm Filipino! Oh and I turned 18 a few months back haha.

Any comments, opinions, suggestions? Those will be welcomed!

i see you wanna stick with alpine, but if you want something that hits hard get some jlaudio w6.

I wish there were more badges/decals that said DUAL VVT-i you know? just one of my pet peeves. but yeah nice car and I see that you have a lot let scrapes on your front lips lol mine is "bad" but whatever you cant see them anyways
do you have the link for the wing you bought? and how much did it cost?
Nice audio set up I think lol I dont know anything that isnt basic knowledge about audio systems....yet that is I forced myself to do audio one of the last mods but some part of me says that, that's not going to happen lol.
What is going to be your next mod/mods after the addition of the sub and amp? Im going to do l.e.d. tail lights and then all the bars just like superchargedmr2's then the list just goes on and on and on lmfao! but yeah my friends and I are going to visit San Antonio sometime before the summer ends because I need to visit some colleges before my senior year So UTSA and UT Austin that one weekend. Where do you go to school?

im rocking the same decal on my car lol but in silver , nice ride nice to see it back together

[FlawedLegacy]

very nice ride!
love the roof spoiler!

SuperchargedMR2 and I have the same one!

When you drop the car, the body to car ratio will look much better!

[sinnaever]

I would have gone with the Component Version rather than the 600's.

They make a big difference in quality. But not bad either way.

[ej063090]

I dont care for the VVT-i decals, but after I get my tenzo wheels I am thinking of getting a flat black decal and putting it in that spot.

[PhatRoyale]

I would get rid of the VVTI decals. It ruins the otherwise clean look of the car.

Ya, I hate all those scratches and scrapes... Some places where I drive here, you can't even tell that there is a huge drop cause the road blends so well. But the thing is, you can hardly tell all the scratches unless you get eye level with the car, if you standing straight up, you can't even tell its there.

About the audio setup, I'm not a big wiz at it, maybe enough like you lol. Just something that sounded good and i knew that alpine was a good brand. I want my next mod to be the LED tails right after I complete my sound system!

I plan on going to school at the Alamo Community Colleges then transferring to UTSA for my major

Ya I like the decals because it makes your corolla stands out from other, and I hear where your coming from Phat, but its more like a subtle touch. But i think it looks good

[flamedrgn]

most people dislike the vvti/dohc because it makes the car a "wannabe honda" but to each their own.

that is my thoughts, but what do i care about your ride (wow, that sounded snotty, sorry). You can have Hello Kitty pimped out all over and don't bother me none lol


ok, that was a bit much, not my tastes either, but "Do your own thing, just don't touch mine" as my father says

[Dimaoala]

Not callin' anyone out, but also I posted this same thread in 9thGenCorolla.com, i'm a member there as well. Alot of people say that the VVT-i/DOHC decal looks like Honda because alot of civics come with them like that factory/stock.

But if you think about it, Toyota has done this alot before in the past in the 80's with the Corolla's, if i'm not mistaken any other models too if i'm not missing any. They would display some sort of decal relating to the car's trim, engine, etc. similar to the one I have but in a different style.

Here is a Corolla back in the day:

I have to angle all the time because some of the road are really "low" vs. the parking lot of something. And I just know the basics of audio systems I might be getting this one job that pays pretty well so time to save up for the car. oh ok a lot of people do that here in houston too they go to Houston Community college then UH I kinda want to go to UTSA but I really want to go to UT Austin or UT Arlington

[TheGreenKnight]

I have the same decals in green but on my front doors, I prefered it there because I DONT have a body kit on mine so it looked better positioned there. Mines in green too, to give it the very "subtle" look

[ej063090]

They had a sport motor to be proud of, not a green machine "Varible Valve Timing-Intellegence" motor. I guess it wouldn't be as bad if you weren't modding your car for performance, but for greenage.
