⚙️ What This Group Is

A space to document your build journey from rust to reveal, from your first wrench turn to your first fire-up.

A place for motivation, progress, and problem-solving. We’re here to build each other up, not tear each other down.

A community garage share advice, tips, and feedback that help others level up their craft.

A zone for transparency and learning. Show the messy middle, not just the highlight reel.

A way to track your evolution post your updates, reflect on your work, and keep your passion alive.

‘23 GR Corolla

The 1.6 liter G16E-GTS engine is still relatively new and I’m learning a lot from the GR Yaris forums and community about it while I build. So this build is slow, but deliberate.

I’ll start with what I first swapped out and make my way through the list.

Engine pitch mount: DeltaX Motorsports with 70a insert

Shift assembly kit: RacerX

Aero: Tom’s Racing Type TK wing

When I first got the civic and the current day!

Show off your 'before and after' (even if it's just one part). Let's celebrate the small victories!"

Just left my baby at the shop (I work there) so I can start pulling motor for upgrades, reseal and maintenance like timing, rings, gaskets, etc.

friend of mine is gonna tow the body to his house so we can wrap it and install all the new exterior too while motor is out. Then gut the inside and upgrade interior too.

Hate seeing him not in his spot at home. But can’t wait for spring when I start him up again and get a new tune. 🖤 I’ll make sure to post progress photos. But I may be a ghost for a bit with late night build sessions lol.

The day I got it, vs. about 2 months ago. 1.5 years of time and dedication has made the car virtually unrecognizable from where it was when I got it 👍 need updated pictures cuz even more has been done since this photo, but thats a surprise for later
