wheels and suspention were dead, and this was the first thing for change, to allow car just move normal.

but the engine is really suprised me, 20yo small 4a-ge is still do the job and car can hit 200km/h.

suspension setup:
Swift 8kg springs and TRD shocks (thnx doggy)
tuneagent pillowball caster rods
Rear 8way adjustable blue TRD shocks and 7kg AJPS rear springs
custom adjustable panhard-rod with pillowballs also
I havn't photo of every thing because I havn't a photoaapparat )))

at the end of the summer car was damaged in the front Sad
so I've decided not only restore it, but make a strengthening also.

when disassemble the car I've rebulid stock LSD with max.grip kit.
here is LSD inside

Nice! Thumbs up!
Those wheels are very nice, where did you get them if I may ask?

The Quaife steering rack I have also, not built in yet, I'm very curious how it will feel! Smile

and started to make a roll cage
with floor pedals I've moved backward for ±30cm, so seat were relocated and 140mm alu steering wheel adapter added (+95mm deep wheel and 70mm hub)
steering wheel will be in upper position as shown, to let me go in a car
and stock adjuster is extended to place wheel lower for steering.

Relocating due to a different gearbox or because you want to sit more back in the car?

I wanna sit more back and because of floor pedals same time.

yeah, doggy, it's your coilovers, shocks are still in good condition
but main body was rebuilded, because one spindle was broken when outer wheel bearing suddenly broke on 100+ km/h speed (wheel locked but all ok).
