Ra28 project

**The Knot** · 18-10-2008, 07:18 PM

Hey all, im about to start a project on my Ra28 Celica and want some advice on a few things, as this is my first major project. Im want to start by upgrading the diff brakes and suspension. I would like to know if there is a specific order i have to do these in for it to all go smoothly.
Like i dont want to do a brake upgrade only to find its not compatible with the diff i want to put in etc etc.

Any advice on this would be great, so if anyone has done it before or knows about this please help me out. Thanks.

first bit of advice would be to check out this webpage it's packed with literally EVERYTHING you need to know... someone was asking almost the exact some question about 2 weeks ago, and someone else probably every week before that. Another good bit of advice is to check out members rides threads, get a feel for what other people have done, then after a bit of research you'll be able to ask specific questions. To know what you suggest we need to know what your plans are... daily driver? keeping it standard? 1JZ conversion?

Based on that work out what diff and brakes combo you are going to run, then buy the shocks etc to suit.

Common brake upgrade is the Puegeot/Corona one which will suit your struts, but there are other options.

The diff in your car is a weak point for a car with decent power, so that might be your first port of call in terms of nutting out a plan.
