Welcome to IMOC-UK, chap!

An amazing 1/4 mile time you've got there. What level of boost are you running to take you to 12.750 seconds with the mods you've got?

Yep its a 1980 ke70 corolla, usually powered by a 1200cc k series toyota carby motor, that one has a 4age and t50 box from a levin ae86 (twincam in your part of the woods), it pulled 15.7 @ 80 something mph

Rears are flush nicely, fronts are slightly tucked however I dont know what everyone complains about 17s being so terrible with handling? It handles SOOOOOOOO much better just with the wheels. The 14" wheels/tyres are stupidly undersized. Rims alone weigh 6.8kg each.
