Toyota Corolla GT-S

Started on May 22 by ae86andkp61

This is my low and stiff Corolla for trackdays, autocross, and paved backroads fun. I have put a lot of effort and aftermarket parts into suspension work, and a few bolt-ons for the engine. It is lightweight, responsive, and loves to hassle bigger cars through the twisties! My goal has been to enhance the performance envelope a bit without losing out on driveability or streetability too much. I want light weight and a simple aesthetic with a spectacular overall driving experience and I am pleased with the results so far. Highlights include: -TRD Japan fiberglass hatch and spoiler with lexan window for weight savings -Carbon fiber hood and Japanese bumpers (not pictured) for further weight savings -Lightweight battery for weight savings -Adjustable aluminum suspension arms, heim-jointed one end, hard bushing at the other end for weight savings and handling response without rattling loose any fillings -Homemade short shifter and various body braces -TRD Japan roadrace shocks and springs -Traction brackets to relocate the rear lower control arms and roll center adjusters to relocate the front control arms after lowering -TRD hard bushings wherever there aren’t heim joints -A small dose of negative camber up front and zero toe for great turn-in -Braided brake lines and high performance pads -4-2-1 header, exhaust, Injen intake, and power steering delete to wake the engine up a little bit and further shave the weight -Nardi deep-dish steering wheel for a bit of interior dress-up and a better driving position You must be registered and signed in to comment.
