egdinger Re: ut oh January 04, 2013 07:29PM Registered: 05/07/2012 Posts: 14 Sell the Toyota, put Toyota badges on your new volvo. When questioned, "No honey, it's always looked like that." or if it's a different color, "The neighbor kid was bored, I gave him $10 to paint it." Did you find out why it's the corolla or else?

Rallymech Re: ut oh January 04, 2013 07:36PM Registered: 04/27/2008 Posts: 1,292 Yes! Good for you. I love Toyotas. I just picked up steel to build suspension components for a Corolla that is going to a WRC event. Build a Volvo 240 as your fist car. Start hoarding parts, especially the stuff that is becoming hard to get. Robert. "You are way too normal to be on Rally Anarchy." Eddie Fiorelli. Please Login or Register to post a reply

79corolla Re: ut oh January 04, 2013 07:45PM Registered: 12/31/2012 Posts: 91 The 240 sounds easier to build for a first car anyway, a lot more power out of the 2.3 rather than trying to find a 3S series or 4age then trying to fit that bit@h , ae82 trans , diff and trans , just too much I couldn't get a 5k to produce any kind of useable HP to go fast without spending $$$...so I'll just have to park my happy ass on the couch for a few days and stand my ground...

Dazed_Driver Re: ut oh January 04, 2013 07:58PM Registered: 08/24/2007 Posts: 2,154 It was "hard" to find parts for AE86 corollas 5 years ago. It's more difficult now. Don't build an OLDER corolla. Don't do that to yourself. Besides, you'll avoid all the leg humping and fanboi problems if you build a volvo haha. Welcome to the cult of JVL drink the koolaid or be banned.
