@JDMNitro - to be honest mate got the wires through a friend, does seem to have n easier start but i don't know whether its just me

Well this is after the cut n polish, these days hunting for wheels and also looking into getting radiator hoses n vacuum lines sorted as well....Just need to compare with a Toyota Levin 4AGE setup and mine
and also painted the window switch panels with a glossy black looks pretty good will be going with it for the center console as well... pics will follow

I have seen more or less similar (not with Toyota logo) gadget connected to car audio system, do not know if it is a kinda external noise cancellation unit; but definitely not in door frame!

Saw the bird in person today. Felt guilty almost. What if the teg saw me with another woman??

But Muditha really has done a sterling job so far. Love the color. It just stands out like Kim kardashian in a sea of gayesha pereras.

Had a coffee and a chat about what to do next with it. This car is going to be even better!

... i could say the same about you mate, was humbled to be in the presence of a Guy who loves cars and who was kind enough to help me out as always. I already started the hunt for wheels and did find the one you pointed out too... hoping i can get them down though

[chamee]

Dear Friend....

please tell me where did you bought 4a ge black top engine and how much,,,,,,,,

[Muditha420]

@chamee - machan check PM

[Muditha420]

So gonna bump this thread back up coz i got few changes done....for me its packing a Big difference. right now got out of the car with a big ass grin on me face.

the manual brushed aluminium foot pedals came and also got the Raizin Voltage Stabilizer as well....

and here they are out of the box

And following is the installation of these two as well as got Komi's electrical guys expertise to get the meter cluster and clock back up to full illumination. Sorry i couldn't get a picture when the cluster was poorly lit but trust me this is way better & full of potential as well

will post a good shot of the RAIZIN unit as well tomorrow.

Before shot of the pedals

And after shot (foot rest needs to be fabricated coz it was missing when i got the car )

[Komisiripala]

Nothing like a well lit gauge cluster to get those juices flowing... Told ya the guy is good! Adjust the brightness of the photo you took. Will look better.

You met the other hopefuls today?

[Jaliya48]

I really, REALLY want to test drive that 4AGE!

Nice job, Muditha!

[Muditha420]

Thanks guys.... Defa that IS a good spot indeed... perfect and neat job

No Komi, was outta luck on meeting the other Guru's.... ran outta time but hopefully next Friday might be able to.

@Jaliya48 - why not mate

[Reckless]

Great job Muditha! Always nice to see a carina in god nick. Keep up the good work.

I regret giving away my carina after seeing all this, deeply miss her..

[Schiffer]

on the gauges, did you replace all the bulbs in LED and didnt replace the "100 - 180"?

[Schiffer]

oh and LOVE the peddles.

also, ive seen few carina's and corona's with missong foot rest O,o why on earth would people remove it -__-

[Magnum]

How much were the pedals?

[Muditha420]

@Schiffer - well on the gauges the main lights were the once replaced the rest were not available with them, but not complaining to the "itipandam dalla" sort display to this. but hv to see if i can sort out some powerful LED's for this so the light distribution would be even across the panel.

Pedals are a sight to see mate... Ane manda mona magulakata galoonawada kiyala... not so easy to find as well. i guess people nick from eachother who owns Carina's

@Magnum - cost me $28 well worth it.

@Reckless - Thanks mate...this is a slow thread i know but glad to see the guys following it

donno about yours but since it looks the same, the bulb for 100-180 section is a T5 bulb, kinda hard to find those in white :/

and sirawata, someone has stolen all my scuff plates ban when it was garaged for sometime.. Munta kahilla..

[Muditha420]

Apoo Amu kawichcha unuth hitiya... just wishing on what ever star that's out there that i can get all the little nick knacks sorted or parts found Damn i ran out of time to go and meet those Guru's that day *Dammit

i did make a point to my self n realized when it comes to Komi - "Always listen to what he has to say" , like the garage he discovered, bloody perfect. the poor kid didnt eat lunch even felt so bad, did a heck of a job though

[Muditha420]

OK forgot to put these two images up as promised, so better late than never...
