| Haha, you could probably cook eggs on it if you got really desperate  . I gave it a polish the other week with Autosol but you can't really tell in the pics I posted earlier. In real-life it's a lot shinier and more mirror-like  _________________ ^^Click above to view my Driiive page ^^Want JDM parts? Hit me up! | |

| Thanks Ishaq. The ground clearance is a lot better than I expected. It sits about level with the stock front swaybar, so I shouldn't be ripping it off on speed bumps anytime soon  Here's a quick shot I took showing the amount of ground clearance:  _________________ ^^Click above to view my Driiive page ^^Want JDM parts?

| Looks good Scott. Does it bolt to the end of each wishbone? _________________  3SGTE AE101 & OCTAVIA TDI OWNER | |

| Thanks dude. Yep, it bolts to the front of the control arms. You simply remove the long bolt on each side, put the brace on and slide the bolt back through. Definitely the easiest brace I've ever had to install  . Was originally thinking about going for a 4pt brace (H frame) but was worried what the ground clearance would be like and how much weight it would add to the car. I forgot to weigh how much the 2pt one was before installing it but it would have only been a few hundred grams. _________________ ^^Click above to view my Driiive page ^^Want JDM parts?

| Sounds like you made the best choice. Been looking into getting better handling parts for mine, one of these might be what i'm after. _________________  3SGTE AE101 & OCTAVIA TDI OWNER | |

| I was finally able to get my hands on an OEM 9,000rpm tachometer from an AE101 Corolla GT sedan yesterday. I've been on the lookout for a GT sedan being wrecked for quite a while now but they're so hard to find, and when I do find them they're usually automatics and have a slightly earlier redline. Luckily this time I found a manual one, so the redline starts at 8,000rpm, with an early warning line just after 7,500rpm (my old one only went to 8,000rpm and redlined at 6,250rpm) and a max rpm of 9,000. I installed it today by simply taking apart the cluster and swapping them over, allowing me to still keep my 240kph speedometer that I fitted earlier this year. Looks a lot better now, and taking it to 8,000rpm is just that little bit more satisfying    _________________ ^^Click above to view my Driiive page ^^Want JDM parts? Hit me up! | |

I already grabbed all of the seats and door panels (same as mine) for a guy in Puerto Rico, so the interior is pretty bare now, lol. Any reason why you want the rear bumper? I thought it would have been the same as the ADM Corollas? _________________ ^^Click above to view my Driiive page ^^Want JDM parts? Hit me up! | |
