Kwaai Nasser :praise: we use to skut in the late 80's early 90's exactly the same colour and model 1.3GL Corolla.It was my buddy's car and wait for it,his name was also Nasser.I on the other hand had "slanty" 1.3L panel van.Looking at these pics brings lots of nostalgia.Many times we would drag the sedan against the panel van and the van always came out tops due to the power to weight difference.This takes me way,way back,shukr for sharing the awesome build :thumbs:

so yesterday was a rush to get the car fixed after the propshaft fucked out
sent it to WG propshafts 7.30am yesterday morning prop was ready at 3pm
replaced fuel lines and brakes lines
started her up and i wasnt getting clutch after bleeding the clutch and making a mcguyver on the clutch pedal i was finally able to select gears...... this was at 9pm!!!! i phone jody who is at home, he agrees to open up his workshop and start tuning my car at 9.20pm

and we get going, first run i was so kak nervous that something was going to break LOL

but anyway we got the VVT working and upped the boost to 1.4bar which it was holding

and this was the result
304kw and it looks like it was still climbing but i didn't the nerve to rev it to 8500rpm
