Another Corolla from the Philippines!

Hello brothers! Firstly, I would just like to include a little background of my so called " Project Corolla "

This Corolla was bought by my father last 1996. It remained stock until mid-2004. Add-ons during that time wasn't much though. Just a set of original OEM rims, foglights, tailpipe finisher and a set of rain gutters. Again, it remained that way until March of 2010 wherein I decided to tweak the car a little bit exteriorally ( if there's such word. lol )

Here's the car mid-04





And here how it looks now







(those foglights are yellow now)



On that state, the car's already dropped. Sitting at 2 finger gap on the front, 3 finger gap on the rear, I still find it pretty high. That's why I decided to drop the car more on the coming weeks. If possible, I would like to attain a 0-1 finger gap all throughout. I would sacrifice the max passengers allowable for the car though since most probably it would scrape already.

But I'm pretty decided with that. So I'm just waiting for my schedule to be cleared up.

Comments/suggestions are welcome.

Thank you all! Hope you appreciate it

looks very nice, will loo better when its lowered more

Thanks a lot! Appreciate it. Yep! Will post pictures once it's dropped more. Probably on saturday. Great looking car too sir!

what engine is in it?

It's still rocking its stock engine. 2E. But am planning to replace it with a 4EFTE ( 1.3L Turbo ) very soon. Just checking on the budget. Swaps back here can be really costly especially if a turbocharged engine will be swapped in.

Or possibly, I could even consider swapping a 4AGE 20V Blacktop on it. Costs about the same as the 4EFTE swap. N/A though. No joy in hearing the engine grunt, unlike when turbocharged, the BOV's sound are music to the ears!

Welcome man, great car indeed

Thanks man! Appreciate it!

I think I've seen it before! It will definitely look better with a proper drop... it looks stock now. Looking forward to that!

Welcome and Nice car

welcome along bud, nice looking corolla you got there

Hi guys thanks for the compliments!

The car's sitting perfectly right now. 1 finger gap all throughout. I can say that it looked better. Haha.

Will try to grab some pics on the next few days.

Thanks!
