SR5 to GT-S Conversion
Ah ok.

First pics up, check my garage out! I put up a couple engine bay pics of my SR5 as well.

Getting the coupe mechanically checked out on Thursday. Wish me luck! Heh.. I noticed a few places on the car where it looks like there was serious body damage from somebody rear-ending it, and I'm hoping it didn't F anything up too bad... *crosses fingers*

Oh but I did take it out last Saturday and boy does this car slide!! I was doing continuous sideways circles around a pretty decent size blacktop in the dry. First time I've really felt a good adrenaline rush from drifting in a while lol. So happy Big Grin

Auch... Did you check the boot? You should see on the bootfloor if it either has been replaced or repaired... Blush

Ahh, nope. It has a big dent where the ring at the top of the wheel well was pushed in a bit but it hasn't been repaired or replaced.

Well I'm loving the coupe, but I have a slight problem.

I'm in desperate need of some wheel/axle studs. My rear brake caliper was put on wrong before I bought the car, and one of the holding bolts sheared, causing the caliper to half freeze up on the rotor and strip my studs.

I need 8 hardened studs. Dimentions:
length: at least 44.75mm
knurled 12.75mm
12x1.5mm

Anyone have any ideas as to where I can get these?? I've been looking all over with no luck yet.

From Toyota. Some Toyota light trucks/jeeps use same (compatable) as AE86 but ~5mm longer.
