Always get that backwards.... might be dyslexic. Using a rwd like an ss/Mazda you'll have to use a spacer obviously. the ones I've seen don't stick it out much further than a fwd rim. I've never ran them but looked into buying some from American outlaw and they don't stick out an egregious amount. The clearance on brakes/struts didn't change much. You're getting a much stronger rim than even the century wheels imo.

Thank you for the info. honestly I have no clue how long my is yet. ends of tubing are maybe 1 inch from the outside of tires. most guys run them even with outside of frame and end up losing a tire. tierod end ect. ran mine long to protect the front tires and pray it does not bend all stupid.lol

camry throttle cable: remove all the $hit for the cruise control.keep the short cable that is hooked to gas pedal.hook that cable to the throttle/intake. need to unscrew both nuts on cable but it will fit. mine idles a hair high cause of the cable but good enough to wreck.

There's a reason you don't see pics of built corollas. There's nothing up front to build. They're fine wire cars, that's about it. Camrys are simple. You have to pre bend the rear. Shorten front frame at seam. Only cut what you need to fit bumper. cut core and radiator support out. Loop coolant lines. Use an aftermarket shifter. Drive forward.
