The Lair

They got any for an 03 corolla? I was driving home in my rolla last night and the A/C barely keeps up with the heat, so I'm thinking, "man, what if I had toob dawrz on this?" And I liked the idea. The only thing is I'd lose like all my audio in the car. So then I started thinking about where I could relocate the speakers and came up with nada. lol

 

Just get an old school 1980's "boom box" and bungie strap it to the deck in the rear window... that's what we did when my buddies had such cheap pieces of crap cars that the radio didn't work in high school.

 

I thought about getting one of those ATV boom boxes.

 

No no no... it has to be a dual cassette, two speaker SILVER boom box. Or else none of this will work.

 

HAH and a Dr. Dre Cassette to play?

 

Why not put the speakers in the headrests?

 

Technically it should be Beastie Boys license to ill... we are pre-dating Dre on this one...

 

I can get down on that. Might still have a Whitesnake cassette somewhere too...

 

Remove the doors and get headphones.

 

Toob door szn

 

Those mirrors heated?

 

No but they are powered. Powered by redbull and slim Jim’s.

 

Sounds like America

 

I bet they were today... no problems with ice at all.

 

I haven't done the ABS delete, but I'm already planning my next step in the process which is to upgrade the master cylinder and booster.

It mostly bolts up, with a few minor modifications. On the MC, the fittings are on the opposite side and M12 versus M10. That's an easy fix with some homemade hard lines.








The other modification to be made is to the plunger on the booster. It needs to be extended a couple of inches but that's an easy task with a welder.











And that's it! The tundra booster is dual diaphragm which results in a firmer pedal. The MC and booster can be purchased from LKQ for ~$200 so it's really not going to break the bank. After I do that if my braking isn't still where I want it, then I'll upgrade the front brakes with a wilwood big brake kit.

 

So like hypothetically, how would one go about LTing a macpherson strut style suspension? Longer arm and angled strut? Extension from strut to hub?

 

Curious to see what you come up with to address the clutch master cylinder as it's fed from the brake master reservoir.

 

Me too, I haven’t gotten that far yet.

 

I have all those parts already sitting at the house besides the small lines.... been sitting on it for like a year now

 

I'll take them off your hands for $10.
