you had to put new engine mounts for that engine right? which should make a 2nz-fe "corolla wala vitz ka engine" a bolt on fit right?
what is the difference between the power and torque figures?? wouldn't that be a good idea?

[umarabdullah]

and would love to hear what you have in mind for the speedo

Haha, lots of updates to be posted bro but pakwheels forum app isn't working on iPhone and I don't have my iPad with me for another day so I guess the updates will be posted on Friday, insha'Allah

The speedometer was purchased on day 1, it's not that LEXUS LS's speedometer that we see fitted in every project car out there, this one's different

Honestly bro, I didn't drive the car myself so I cannot tell you the difference between the power and torque figures, however, as far as Hamza told me, no alteration was done while swapping the engine plus the engine bay was not in a good shape either. But we're working on everything obviously to make the car's drive worth the money being spent on it.

Alhumdulilah bro, the project is going great, the headlights I designed finally turned out to be a reality. Also, the wheels are super cool, they'll make the car stand out as well, a set of WedsSport on a Charade is not something one gets to see everyday

Latest Pics?

Will be posting them by tuesday, insha'Allah.
Went today but the cell phone was dead so couldn't click any pictures.

[abdulmunimqadri]

So the wait is finally over guys, the headlights are finally here. Took these pictures yesterday but couldn't upload them, but I guess they're worth the wait, no? Do let us know!

[abdulmunimqadri]

Had to check the light's adjustment today and masha'Allah they looked beautiful, the pictures of the lights fitted in the car will be uploaded later tonight, lots of updates are lined up guys

[abdulmunimqadri]

The bumper was loose because the lights had to be adjusted, but they do look wicked, no?

[abdulmunimqadri]

Alhumdulilah, the perfect fitting which honestly, was unexpected.
The backlights are still in process, what are you guys expecting next? haha

[abdulmunimqadri]

After 20 days of our quest for that perfect steering for our perfect project, we finally got our hands on this beautiful ORIGINAL TRD NARDI racing steering wheel, this picture is from the internet as we forgot to click a picture before handing it over to the poshish guy for wrapping it, the wrapping goes with the interior colour scheme we chose for the car so stay tuned for it

Went thru all 7 pages. Impressive restoration. Really like your Tail light LEDs for Mehran. So expecting equally good result for the Charade tail lamps. I would point one thing out regarding the headlamps. Though their fitting looks amazingly perfect, I would recommend removing the L shaped White weather seal, just use neutral transparent silicon seal for the headlamp housing. Those just ruin the look, kind of make it look unprofessional. Other thing is, if you can try the Chrome instead of flat black for the headlamp interior housing, it would look stunning. As headlamps are critically important for the overall front body style, one little misstep can ruin the whole look. You are still trying out different things, and I think you did a wonderful job in overall designing the projector and all, just a little input from my point of view. Thanks. BTW, I have modified Nissan Maxima, 1990 during my teen years, in 1990's, in US, where I reside.

[OwaisYunus1]

Although that's a nice effort on the headlamps, I would prefer the stock headlamps over these. The stock headlamps give a more 'complete' look to the front of the vehicle.
Like mentioned above, if you remove the white led bit, the lights would look even better. Do use the original d2s hid bulbs in those projectors along with good quality ballasts, preferably Denso ones. If any shop wala recommends otherwise, please dont listen to them. You would only get good output from these projectors with the correct hids.

Also, try not to park the car in the sun for long durations if possible because the plexiglass on the headlamps would warp and start developing minute cracks.

Best of luck for the rest of the project (y)

Headlights look amazing I think we should wait for end results before getting to conclusions but I feel like side lights being translucent don't match much with transparent new ones or maybe it will appear different once finalized
