Our latest project – Toyota Corolla 160i GLE. The engine was removed and completely rebuild. A Dastek Uni-Q and turbo fueller was added to the equation. The gearbox was removed and received some special treatment, longer ratio 5th gear and a LSD. The rear brakes were upgraded from drums and shoes to disc’s and pads. The front brakes was change to EBC disc’s and “yellow stuff” pads. The suspension was upgraded to BC Coil overs, front and rear and new trailing arms and strut brace (fabricated in house). A new Garrett Turbo T25 was fitted and 63mm, 304 stainless steel boost pipes. 550x175x65 front mounted inter cooler. After everything was fitted, the bumper was modified to fit the “new” Toyota with addition of Cressida spoiler. The finale power figures is yet to be obtained as the motor is still being run in.Engine before the work startedEngine in the beginning stageNew Turbo fitted to vehicleOld front brakes – before upgrade to EBC brakesOld front brakes with old shocksRear brakes – before conversionBeginning stage to make sure everything will fitInter cooler fittedInter cooler with modified front bumperNew look Tappet CoverNew look Tappet CoverInter cooler for ToyotaInter cooler with modified bumperInter Cooler with boost pipesBoost pipe for intake manifoldBoost pipePipes for turbo and boostingBoost pipe almost completeBoost pipe almost completeComing together nicelyTappet cover with boost pipeBoost pipe to inter coolerTurbo mountedTurbo mounted with flangeStart of the Manifold buildingPipes turbo to blockToyota TurboNew trailing armsNew trailing armsTrailing arms with new hubBC coil oversBC Coil oversStrudStrudStrudRear brake conversion doneEBC Brake disc and “Yellow” stuff padsEBC Brake disc with “Yellow” stuff padsEngine Bay respray – blackEngine bay respray blackEngine Bay before resprayBlock ready to be assembledEngine ready to go back inEngine assembled, respray with new tappet coverRebuild Engine with Tappet cover – ready to be fittedEngine almost readyInter Cooler with boost pipes almost finishPainted Tappet CoverTurbo fittedBoost pipe for intakeCompleted Boost PipeTop of StrudManifold in makingManifold in making
