WonTon 02-28-2010 10:45 PM

only problem is i have been searching for several hours for aftermarket parts and have only turned up Ground control coilovers....just for the front, nothing for the rear!

cjernigan 02-28-2010 10:46 PM

That probably means that the rear doesn't need coilovers to get low. Kinda like if you buy lowering springs for an '87 Civic you only get rear springs..

WonTon 02-28-2010 10:54 PM

i think the rear is setup strut and spring separate from each other!

like how VW golfs are set up!

Buy that, seriously. My first car was a 86 corolla GTS coupe, loved it, i always wanted an older one though.

Cspence.....i seen a couple of old volvo wagons for sale round my area.....but heard they get a lil expensive to fix......

WonTon 02-28-2010 11:16 PM

:vash: mother F****R! :vash:

now i gotta go find another wagon! i am determined to get one damnit!

WonTon 03-07-2010 03:48 AM

IGHT!!!!

so i have found another wagon for pretty cheap and im gonna get it within the next few weeks. its having some work done to it before i get it... :D

so its a 81 Toyota Corolla wagon, its silver with tented windows, it has the 2tc engine in it with Weber side-draft carbs on it, it has a 5 speed trans out of a 77 rolla that had less that 90k on it, cat-back exhaust, already lowered some, and really decent interior.

the price is 1500 bucks, or 1850 with some 13x8 Rota RB's......
