Hanif Hans Corolla TE 37
My best friend just completed his TE 37 restoration. Actually its a Corolla KE 35 or known as Hardtop. I made a video for him to show how much I appreciate his effort on completing his TE37 project! Ill post some pics of his car during the restoration later. Enjoy!
Reviving KP30 : Exterior Pt 4
Mazli found sets of Enkei Apache 13x7 offset-1 from an old workshop in Lambir(Miri Outskirts) and immediately told me about the good news :) thanx maz! Went there and negotiate with the seller for the best price. I get them for MYR 650.00. For me, thats a great deal I cant resist for sets of rare jdm wheels!!
theres still rubber tubes inside those tyres!! damn olskool!
After installing TA22 struts and disc...the braking felt much better than before..I send the knuckle to be machined to fit the struts and lower arms together. Also need to custom built steel bushes to make them fit.
Since I still dont use adjustables and considered as old parts, I just cut the front springs a round and a half to get 2 inch drops. And for the rear I remove 2 leaf springs. Handling improves slightly than before and Im quite happy with my cheap mods.
I also send the rear axle to the machine shops and ask them to drill new pcd holes 114.3 from pcd 108. Im glad my KP's progress right now
