Tasmania / Hobart

Ok boys and girls here is the chance to test your ride, The tarmak dragway will be holding once a month meets for street cars. Its about time this happend and if there is enough support it will keep going. Check it out Tasmania Dragway Event Page

Launceston Rollaclub members have a meeting every 3rd Sunday of the month. Location : Inveresk Railyard Carpark Time : 12:00 Pm Any changes to this i will update. Hobart Members doing any thing? Pm me details and i put them up.

Hello boys and girls. As most of you have seen this section is getting very untidy, I for one am getting a little tired of going through page after page of unrelated topic crap. :( I know we all like a chat, but as it has been said before maybe MSN could be used for the chats, If you want we could make a thread with MSN addresses for those of you that want to chat. MSN can also have groups, maybe put all you rolla club friends in there and then you can have a group chat. Example of this is the Launie toyota meeting thread, This thread would be used for meeting times, Dates and pictures of the meetings and related topic information. But if we read the last page, …

As per the Rollaclub rules: So...Please don't post any more for sale items in the region forums. Tasmania is BY FAR the worst offender. I understand that some of you can't/wont/don't freight items, and theres no problems with this, but please keep it in the for sale forums.

G'day, Just made this topic for finding parts locally. Has anyone got a fender (side guard) on the passenger side for a KE30 2dr? Mine has rusted out down the bottom, it was too late when I noticed it because the rust was eating it away from the back. When I took it off the bolts snapped off; I'll have to borer them out. Been looking for one for a while around Hobart, but most wreckers don't have any corollas before 1980, and if they did they had rust and dents in them anyway. Looking for K50 gearbox for a 4K motor. Wreckers are asking over $200 for one. Also I'm looking for interior parts like side kick panels, instrument panel etc. Bruce

hi this is spot the rolla. just tell us what you have seen on the road today in lonnie i saw a orange ke10 and a yellow ke70 panel van like mine and ke30 king in is ke55 and that shit looking ke70 with all the air brushing and with his fully sik wing

I'm gonna be in the market for a strolla in about 6 months and just want to know whats goin around under $2000im pretty dead set on a ke70 but ill look at anything, after all it is a corolla :P

Hey guys. Long time no see! Just wondering if anyone knows the whereabouts of my old ke11, sold it to a guy down the coast think his name was kyle? Hoping it's still around, would love to know, Or the whereabouts of a ke10-11 worth playing with Thanks Casey

Hey everyone, I just thaught it would be a good idea to post pics of your cars so if we see each other on the street we can scream and ride the horn ect. Sorry if thers allready a thread about this mods delete it if you feel necessary Well I better start off, this is my pride, its a KE55 two door with a 4k going to be 4age very soon. EDIT - Just an update, 4k is out, just giving it one last lash! hahaha

who is interested in having a bit of a toyota gathering in launie. if you are well try and organise a date and a place when it can happen :D

Hey guys this is a very long shot I know but it's always worth a try.. I'm trying to hunt down my old ke30 as I would like to buy it back, I sold it back in 2010 to a bloke from Ulverstone and I havn't seen or heard about it since, was originally auto but I converted it to 4k 4spd Now I've done a rego check on it and the rego was lapsed in 2011, I'm hoping it's just sitting around in a paddock somewhere and didn't get smashed up :( if anyone knows of its whereabouts or knows any info can you please pm me! Thanks in advance, brad

Spotted this while I was down Hobart last weekend with the other half, who else has see this thing about? It made me look twice, didn't even notice it was a KE70 ute at first glance, its pretty rough though. (not to mention the hideous colours) And its a shame I didn't get to warn you southern members as I would of liked to of seen a few of your cars! Though I did pass a bloody nice looking KE15 on the way down from Mt. Wellington.

Ok So the last cruise was a good turnout. Who is interested in a another one in April? needs to be a tarmac only cruise, that last one over the rocks and shit made my insides hurt :y: Not sure on where, but id really love to drive through the sidling, head out to Scottsdale and then back somewhere. Stop at a few places along the way. have a drink, rest, food and some pics. I'm available most weekends, so a 10.30 meet, 11am leave sounds good to me. same as last one. Any input will be awesome :no2:

Just been having a Chat to Si, and think its time to have another cruise/bbq/take some pics ect day. So if anyone has any Idea's on where to go, what to do ect feel free to jump in.... apart from you Casey, you led us on a nasty rocky road last time:P Speaking of, that place was good, maybe there again? BBQ ect ect. Anywho, get chatting and see when most people are free :D

ok well guys i have ran this past simon and i think we should go for a cruise the idea i have had it for all of us to meet at ross or cambeltown for a BBQ and mabey some photo's would give us all a chance to meet some boys we didnt know, date isnt decided but it will be in April plans for the lonny boys will to meet at say south launceston mc'donalds around 9:30 ish, leave around 10 in a convoy of corolla's (and a L plater cressy) pm me any other info that you think should be on here, ill also do a head count if you say your in!

Hey Guys, Bout time I put something up about this and got the ball rolling. As a few of you now know, Ben (Toy-Yoda) and I have been discussing doing a bit of a "cruise", but with a very different twist!! It has been illuded to a couple of times as the "how far will your old rolla make it cruise". The general out line for what I think would make a good first* outting is as follows: All vehicles are welcome, rollas or not, HOWEVER....This is not a cruise for neat street/show car, but for those who have a second 'lesser value' car or beater. My NA car is a perfect example of what I'm talking about. We're not going to tell you weather your car can come or n…

The MSCT is holding a motorkhana at Symmons Plains in the pits this Sunday, having done a few myself I've gotta say they're a shetload of fun. Would really like to see some more Corollas out there this time, I'll be out there having a go (even though I will no doubt be extremely hung over from the night before hahaha) So, who's keen and who is going to be weak?!

Hey guys, Jip is making up a 2009 Rollaclub calender which will feature a different area per month/page, so we need to provide him with some pics for the Tassie page. I can organise a professional photographer who's a mate (Adam Sutton), and will wear any cost he may charge us. Deadline for getting the pics to Jip is the 25th of Nov, so we really need to get a wriggle on about it. Everybody is going to be off doing something this LONG WEEKEND, so we'll count that out. But I think we should really get it done the following weekend - Fri 7th until Sunday 9th. I'm easy for any day (will need to check when Adam is available), but if people can let me know when is bes…

Some twat broke into Tofu last night........ :S Fuxed the lock on the drivers side, but besides that, no damage....... The rat(s) took about $3 in silver shrapnel and a pack of ciggarettes that was 6 weeks old and had about 5 left in the pack....... They left 2 pairs of sunnies, and a pile of tools I had on the back seat, so I'm guessing it was kids....... I'm not fussed about what was taken, doesn't bother me, it's the fact that I've had this car on the road for 2 weeks since the conversion, and now I have to replace the locks because some cheap f@$k wanted some smokes........ :) It just pisses me off that some people (if you can call them that) feel they …

SO A few of use are gunna do oa BBQ out hollybank just for a catch up. though we might see if anyone else is interested in coming, i could prolly bring camera, get some happy snaps Am think the 8th of march (decent amount of notice) its a sunday, try leave launny at 11ish and cruise out there. will be BYO meat and drinks, So far there is Me Ben Aaron Sturgey ? all welcome, if ya come ya come, if not ohwell :(

Ok guys, sports compacts is on again soon at Tarmak. 18th of Nov,....so thats about 2.5 weeks away. I gunna take both my cars out hopefully, I'll race the mazda and my GF's is gunna race the rolla (still gotta teach her to do toe's :) ). I know NickZ is planning on running his v6 rolla, but who else is going to race????? entry last year was $45 for entry, insurance etc and $10 for an andra day licence, so for $55 + fuel its a great days fun. heres a couple of teaser pics I took last year.

Ok, so after having a chat with Mr. dF about this thread we've come to the conclusion that a dinner meet for Launceston RC at the Jailhouse Grill would be ideal. Saturday 16th Oct, not 100% sure on time yet, will confirm closer to the date. Menu is here so you can see food and pricing. By all means bring the other (better?) half, so the females can chat amongst themselves while we sit about drinking beers and talking shit. I will be making the final and firm booking about 2 weeks in advance (~2/10/10), so I will need to know exact numbers by then as I'll be booking multiple tables. So, who's keen? Let me know as soon as you can, k? Yoda.

hey guys, I'm sick of this no meeting shit so I'm going to try to get things rolling again now I'm in lauceston so i don't know what goes on in hobart but if some one would like to fill me in that would b good. i want to get the meetings going again want to try and work some thing out to try and get symmons plains for a track day or drag strip for those interested. need an expresion of interest and if people want it there will have to b meetings to plan how and when there is a track day hope to hear from uz jay

So I need to clear my shed out. Have a lot of random k/corolla parts. Hoping someone with room to spare might want to come clean me out. Only condition would be if I need something I know was in the collection and its still there I can get it back. Hit me up if you're keen. Cheers, Si.

Just neatend up my ta22 over the last 4 or so months heres some pics they tell the story That was then this is now

Hey guys, Just thought I'd let you know I'm having a party on friday for the hottest 100. If you don't have any plans feel free to drop round and watch the JJJ webcast on the plasma and listen to 1000 watts of PA!!!! Will be also having a BBQ, Propable for lunch, so BYO meat. All welcome. :)

hey all was in town last nite (launnie), seen the RED rolla with plates PS1_055 i think, it was for sale on here a little while ago, who owns this?, wouldnt mind having a look, (I'm such a sticky beak) and there eas also a KE30 i think, yellow, and I'm damn sure it was supercharged, cause the loud whine it made when the revs gets up was insane!!!! anyway, just my rant, lol! oh yeah, seen that yellow wagon with black bonnet the other week too, looks tuff, :) :(

Hello Tasmanian fine people thought I would do my big intro :y: User rname is Fraggle (long story) my name is Stuart. :( I do own a KE 70 1984 Slant nose that I am going to use for motocarnas & khanacross events have spent some time and cash under the bonnet and on springs and other stuff to get it to go a little better and to handle a bit better as well. Done my first motocarna the other week and what a blast another guy that has dome them before drove my roller he finished 2nd and I come in 6th place not bad for a first effort. Here is a picture of the roller put some jelly beans on it the other day shes not to good lookin but she does the job…

As above, same place as last time, this weekend, Sunday 28th June. Conditions are ideal right now and it's like driving on sheet ice........ Much fun is to be had. :bash: *apologies for late notice, only confirmed trip today* *edit* If you don't know where it is, PM me for details.

Hey guys Thought this would be interesting to see what people are up to and doing with their cars _____________________ I just grabbed another alternator for my ae93 for $50 hopefully this one lasts longer than the last one

Hi all, just wondering if anyone is going down this sunday 14th for the annual Shannon's Car and Bike Show held at Charles Hand Memorial Park in Rosny. I have my KE55 sedan entered in the modified section, so looks like I'll be giving it a good polish this saturday. :yes: :y: It's claimed to be the biggest car show I'm Tassie, as there is meant to be over 400 entries. :no2: I have been a number of times now, and it's a really great day, and you get to see a lot of other cars not seen when attending the northern shows. :dance: Anyway if anyone is attending or showing their pride and joy then let us know and I'll look out for you. They showcase cars each year…

Just put the old Corolla Levin on the dyno for a quick run after work. 80kw at the wheels. I didn't make any changes, just run it as is. 2T-G 3T block - crank - pistons ~305 degree cams, stock cam timing about 110 degrees I recon I could tweek it to 90kw easy if I had the time.

Gday all. I have just converted my '73 ke20 to twin downdraught webers. Originally I was running a single downdraught weber, but have longed for a twin carby setup, so I purchased a twin carb manifold from cameron with the yellow the ke70 panelvan. :P So all I had to do was, buy another brand new weber and there you go I have two now. So I will have something to show you all at our next Rolla meet. :) Seeyou all soon. :y: :) :) :) :) :)

As above, who's keen for a cruise? *We are slightly overdue* I have an idea or two if it's only a small group, but if we have a decent number of people up for a run, I'm sure we can map something out :happy: Get vocal :dance:

Well isn't there quite a Corolla tuning scene in Tassie!! Crazy... I've owned no less than 6 KE3Xs over the past 8 years (and a KE15 sprinter), all starting out with my one-owner '75 2dr sedan. She's had a long life, and needs some serious love (I learnt to drive in the old beast), but I still have her!! Beautiful old car!! I also had a KE36 van with a worked 3t-c which was an evil beast, and have a stripped out one-owner KE30 which was gonna be a rallycar, but I'm not building it anymore (anyone want a straight, complete shell??). Ive also had several wrecks for bits and pieces, and have shit loads of parts... I recently acquired another KE36, and am t…

rito who is up for a meet at the tassie nats? its on the 18th 19th of march at ac delco dragway.

I am selling bits off my 2tg as I am building a new motor. For sale are: twin 40mm webers Intake manifold to suit extractors I am keeping the head but will be selling the block, and may be able to supply an early non-efi head. So if someone maight be interested in a complete carburetted 2tg minus flywheel and clutch I could sell it as a whole package. If anyone is interested they can call me on 0418 128 998. Parts or all. Cheers, Rob.
