i'm sick of all the crap i have to go thru with this corolla so i'm thinking of selling it. after i get it fixed of course. i tried to swap out my drivers side tie rod and it was jammed in there so hard it won't come out. so we got to the point of having to hack off both ends and trying to drill it out. still nothing. so after i get this fixed i'm thinking of selling this thing. i'm sick of all the trouble i have to go thru with this thing. start making offers. thanks.

tip: heat it with a torch. Most 86 parts need to be heat to get it out ( if nobody move it since 1986)

don't be hastey my friend.

what i've learned is when i start to get a little frustrated with the car it's a tell-tale sign that i'm spending too much time with it. so i "put the car down" for a few days. i just take a much needed "vacation" from it and any problems i maybe having with the car. pretty soon, after a much needed rest from it, i'm raring to go.

that's the problem with the world today. everyone's always in a hurray. rushing to this, rushing to that. pretty soon, just as quick as you get to where you're going, you're leaving it behind just as fast if not quicker. with all the hurraying to do this and that so we can hurray to do something else, it's a wonder we're not all throwing up our hands in complete exhaustion.

i'm just getting frustrated with the car cause its my daily and i keep running into problems here and there. as well as the amount of money it takes and the time it takes looking for the parts and waiting for them to come in. if it was just a project car i wouldn't be bothered as much by it. it just sucks having to rely on someone for rides and not having your car. i want to pick up a 240 for the ease of getting parts and finding parts and power and ect. i'm just getting the no power no money blues. lol.

its a gt-s with a brand new still being broken in stage 3 clutch and 9lb flywheel along with some other mods. you can find it under media i think. its titled "my corolla, bout time. i think.

it looks pretty sound for a drifter. needs new front suspension right?

I have a trade for you. its my non running gts with 2 motors.

let me if you want to see some pics.

the suspension is fine. i replaced the front upper strut mount. just needs alignment. i'm not really looking to trade a running car with mods for a non running non modded car. sorry.

i was thinking about it. i just haven't found the right offer to pull me away from my corolla. i love the coupe. just sick of the not being able to find parts and all the trouble behind the car. i would trade for a 24o with the same mods. or maybe stock suspension but with a swapped motor. like an sr.
