Hey guys, thought I would post some pics of my recent trackday at Taupo racetrack here in New Zealand.
First off I've done a little bit of work to the ol' girl. I only had it a few weeks before ripping the front suspension apart and replacing everything.
I accumulated a few parts:
The suspension mostly apart:
Shocks, old vs. new:
Mm freshly machined rotors:
All back together:
Then I found some 15" Black Racing Watanabe/Minilite look-a-likes and chucked them on:
At the racetrack:
I think I will spray the wheels gunmetal grey and put them on my TE71 Corolla as I may have a set of 15x8" Work Ewing III's lined up for the beast.
Let me know what you guys think
So I went racing

Nah I didn't :(
I did all these mods just two weeks before trackday, went to go order the rear springs from George Stocks (who import the king springs) only to be told they would be over a month away ex aussie. Argh.
Snells and Chamberlain springs both could make up a pair of custom springs, but they were pricey and I would still be looking at a 10 day wait or so, at that stage I didn't want to risk it.
