  • I'll show you how to install a set of 06-11 Civic coilovers on your *e series Corolla.
    *You may have clearance issues with a stock wheel setup. As long as you're close to the specs I've listed below, you shouldn't have any clearance issues.
    Wheel specs: 15x9 -15 all around with 225/45 Federals

    Nice work..!! I also did the same thing In my kp61 but I used coil overs for a Hyundai I was able to redrill the camper plates and I can adjust camber.. the ride in my car it’s very firm but the car handles great..!! Next it’s my te72 I’m going to purchase the same coilovers that you used..

    Just did this to my 83 Corolla, sadly the civic coilovers don’t go low enough for me 😢 but for $200 used Rev9 coilovers I can’t complain too much 😊 So, on a 185/65r14 14x6 my front fender is at 21.75” if anyone is interested

      Your comment is a year old so you might've figured it out but if not then check eBay, I've found the lip on there, I'm planning to buy it. You'll probably find the spoiler aswell.

    Nice build you have going! Is the Civic damper short stroke or full stroke compare to stock?

    • @sk2golfs
      @sk2golfs  4 года назад +1

      Definitely going to be shorter stroke compared to stock. My car went from having 4-5'' of travel (which was resulting in tons of body roll and a really harsh ride because the struts/shocks were blown). It now has maybe 2-3'' of travel with a much firmer spring and working struts/shocks.

    I’ve been looking for a Corolla for awhile. I was scrolling through the comments and saw that you were selling yours? Do you still have it. I’d also love a build breakdown. I have pictures of yours saved for inspiration of what I want to do to mine. I have my IS300 I’ve wanted for awhile but I want an old car to build and build tough.

      Sold this a few months ago. It was a cool car but finding parts was such a headache. Prior owner swapped in a 3TC 1.8 w/ 5-speed. My plan was to swap and boost but never got around to it, unfortunately.
