Maybe... but they're just a 4cyl Camry in drag (unless you're talking about the first front-drive Celica SX liftback, they're excellent but getting on now).

At least the 4AGE Corolla's have some pedigree and racing history.

And don't go bringing up Millen Pikes Peak racing Celicas! :glare:

a second series mazda mx6 would fit the bill too, fuel is reasonable, spare parts can be exxy, but it is sort of sporty and not too many around, a lot of them are starting to reach there useby date though

I know its not a jap car.

But have u thought of a TX3 FF non turbo.

My mate had one and sold it for 6k i think and it was a good little car.

But if your so hell bent on Jap car then get a pulsar. N14 SSS. got some balls if u need it and the looks can be added.

But its not worth putting up on a skyline forum what we suggest. Everything will be RB powered and well I have no problem with that.

Oh whats that ohhhhhhhhh my car starting up gargle gargle gargle. MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

yeah pulsars are good to! the n15 1.6 litres go alright!

Corolla SX - an awesome boy racers car. no chance of wrapping it around a pole. More economical than a 2.2 Celica and its much more zippy and easy to park.

FWD celicas are for girls. My apprentice has one and he reckons it uses too much fuel.

Swift GTi or proton m21

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By Duncan · Posted

      Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber

      I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option

      You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)

      I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.

      Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
