Hi,

After owning 4 toyotas previously (3 starlets, 1 corolla t sport) I decided I wanted to try out rwd so I picked up an is200 pretty cheap. It's an SR with factory fitted TRD kit.

I've changed the diff to the torsen diff from a sport and fixed some braking issues. Ive got 50mm tenzo springs to go on as well as the brake/fog light mod and the electric mirror lock/ unlock mod to fit. I've not got a lot of mechanical knowledge or common sense so I'll be reading up on other builds/projects for inspiration.

I should have gone rwd years ago.
