Y ur fren never buy urs??? Power enough somemore goodlooking! not tat I wanna pour ice water to ur fren, If he really spent the money, y not go for Vtec? Cause easily up to 2xx plus HP!
*p/s: if he really do so, at least additional 30K. If no believe, can call lobang king-AE101 Wong;-)

 

[nappx]

That mean modded with buy stock car...easily can reach 50k..
Izzit including labour cost..and..handling..interior..exterior..performance part..tuning..etc..or more tan that for nowdays price..

My car..im keep it...coz my aim car sold already...dengggggg....

 

[ragerunner]

nappie.. shouldn't you be in a better position to tell.. you just try to recollect or look through your old receipts, sure can come up with a figure for your friend one..

 

[nappx]

Nowdays price is diff already...cant compare...im lost all receipt already..ha ha...when i said wan build one car cost more then 50k...he not believe..i know he read here..ha ha...if slowly rebuild cost more higher....

if he got the cash.. can do 1 shot..

Agreed but 4AGE even push to max also very difficult to gain high HP... Muz face the reality...

*none of tuner builded high hp on 4AGE unless u charged it!!! If really got $$$, ask Tom's or TRD custom for u(i posted a levin ae101 tom's track car at Rare toyota, tat's the one i'm talking about)!!! But really worth?! Decision made on u:)

p/s: if ur fren use it as daily ride, ask him turn off the idea. juz my 2cents. if his second ride, do consider wat i mention above.

bring him to consult with acai la...bout the hardwares, few people here could supply i.e ae101-wong...mine, diam xdiam nearly fetched 20k to re-do all things, buying parts etc and still counting...double the original value of the car itself when l acquired...

Totally agreed!!! Plus a lot more unexpected things came out during the project!!! All AE sifu here experienced:top:

Ok la.. i'm not a pro.. but i'll do my best to give advice..

1st of all, u need to set a target.. example : NA or TURBO.. daily driving or track car..

2ndly, set a budget.. say RM20,000

then u can search for parts..

4AGE has a lot of aftermarket parts.. u need to study them b4 buying.. if not, ur car won't perform as what u liked..

POWER vs MONEY.. NA requires a lot more money if u wanna tune it well.. that's why people tends to go for Turbo setup.. easy power gain with lesser money involved

everything has pros & cons.. good & bad.. so, u need to compromise.. give & take.. study them b4 u go buy them..

pls keep us updated

common sense dictates that a 1996 corolla is nearly 20 years old already...dont forget to reinforce chassis itself...dont focus blindly on generating power only... :)
