:shocking: :buttslay:

I'll be impressed if you can do that. My RX3 is 1880lbs.

I highly doubt I’ll be able to get it down to 1500 lbs. That doesn’t mean and I won’t try, though.

this looks good and cant wait to see it done but i miss the blueness. none the less congrats on the new ride :icon_tup:

wow eric, looks like that last pic of the black car is the way to go. It is the best looking one uve posted up. what color were u wanting to paint it.?

LUPE 01-10-07 03:16 PM

Starting the minitub this weekend, 8.8 and 4.56 gears are being delivered on sunday. I'm picking up the new transmission tommorow. I'm trying to decide on wheels. I'm going to run a 15X10 wheel with no much backspace for a deeper dish.

I'm thinking something like this but with beadlocks and a different color of course. What do you guys think?

I've thought about that too, I need to play around in photoshop tonight.

Is there a good website about these corollas? I have always liked the boxiness look of these and would trade my rx2 in a heartbeat for this body style.

Well, anyways, good luck on the project, hopefully it will be as awe-inspiring as much as your last one.

These corolla's are a dime a dozen down here in Cali., but try to find an rx2. In my opinion the rx2 and 3's are a better looking car, however any tubbed car looks good. hehe.

Papasmurf 01-10-07 09:31 PM

Thats another thing, I can do a 3/4 chassis, or even just get away with a mini tub, but not on my rx2. I just can't cut up my rx2 though.

fbdrifterrx7 01-10-07 11:00 PM

Thats a nice ass color scheme. Blk wheels all around is like the best way to go with a color bead lock in my opinion.

That's pretty crazy. I don't know if I'd like the feeling of leaving the ground though :) Anyway, good luck with the new project.

Damn good ass vid. I seen it a while back but still love seeing it again. Love the beat to the song also.

Waiting on a quote for some "Hole Shot" wheels, was hoping to order today. They have to be custom made per order so it's going to take a few weeks to get them.

Polished aluminum wheel with the center powdercoated black.

15X10 with with a 3 inch backspace.

fbdrifterrx7 01-12-07 03:37 PM

Where are you getting them from Lupe? There is a store down here that haves them in all styles for alot cheaper then the company. here is their web site. www.theracingstore.com
