Here is some pics of my "different" wagon that i built entirely myself from scratch except for paint and panel and some minor metal fab work. My entire build thread with detailed info and pics can be found on Toymods. Unfortunately you will have to log into the forum to see my wealth of information. http://www.toymods.org.au/forums/showthread.php?t=28002

I originally saved the poor old ae95 from the wrecking yard and paid a tidy $500aud for it.


As you can see it was pretty rough.. it didn't even drive... clutch was completely worn out.

With a "small" amount of work i eventually got the ugly duckling to this stage

I have successfully completed the 4agze engine conversion myself with a few minor modifications.. All in all, it is a bolt in affair using the original gearbox.

Stripped her right back to get a shiny new coat

Came out good.. two tone is the only way your gonna blend in that ugly back quarter window...

Add black window tint, some new wheels and replace every single exterior window mold/surround/rubber with brand new toyota parts (ex Japan = big$$), and you have your self a tidy jacked up AE95

Because low is the way to go, the next thing to do was to drop it off at a mini trucking place to get some fab work done

Next, work out your heights and modify to suit

Next was to custom fit/plumb all the air suspension goodies myself


Get the exhaust modified to suit new "height settings"

and then test it accordingly

In its current form, pics last taken at the recent annual Toyota Fest 2010.


Shame it rained.. car looks much better in the sun

WOW... is about all I can think of to say!   Thanks for sharing!  I'll have to check out that build thread.

Yeah, wow. Thats a beautiful Toyota!!

Thanks guys

I showed my girlfriend and I might have changed her mind a little bit about the potential of this wagon of mine, she said 'Ooooh thats a nice car!' =) MAYBE I SHOULD KEEP HER AFTER ALL!

The Girlfriend I mean, the car stays for sure.

Kebin: Was the hood a custom fab, or did you snag it off of another car and modify it?

HAHAHA!
The hood is the original item and i have cut a hole for the intercooler. A 2007 Nissan Patrol 4wd hood scoop covers the hole

I'll bet you get Subaru Impreza drivers who see you coming and think... ".....wait a second here....."
