Rollaclub Rides

i was coming into a intersetion in the right lane, the bloke was turning right just after a red light, and i see half the car poke out, so i swerve and missed him, lost it and hit a pole the p plater had full comp, i cried, i knew it was gonna happen one day but i didnt want it to happen in this rolla :P :yes: :jamie: :lol: :y:

Yo this is my ride! it's a 77 ke30 and i bought it for $2000 with a years rego, no rust, paint job, rims, aftermarket racing wheel and quality tyres. IT's my first car and i am 16 and on L plates so I'm very happy with it. what i have done so far- -Big clean up inside and out. -Seat covers -Lowered- blocks at the back and pedders sports ryder springs at front -Removal of centre console- it wasbroken and gettin in da way -Sound system- head unit and 6x9 with custom parcel tray (looks well hot and will post pics later -Chains for door handles (classic!) -racing pedals -Central locking …

HI 2 all,ok so the ideas are spinning around in my head now. today they traveled down my arm onto paper (the cheap way to see what ideas will look like). as previously mentioned the front was goin to be custom,so here is the first few ideas.. black one has each headlight with its own frenched opening,the red one is of the open type full frenching.ala 60`s style as seen on many fj holdens back then.i have decided that straight up and down is hte way to go.with h a 54 desoto grill the preffered option. what do you think HI 2 All again, well i have rambled on about this vauxhall ute in other parts of my topics. and just to shock every one and show that it rea…

|blink| Hi everyone, I've been on for a while now and thought I'd post some bits and pics on my AE82 hatch. Long over due for a pretty up the the little fella, seeing as I've had it for ten years now its about time I reckon. I started buy puting on some standard wheels for now (couple of years back) I also went to get it lowered but that didn't work out due to the lack of service from the joint I went through "Nah, if you put tower bars on this it'll lift a wheel" well that never happened. But just today I went out and layed down the cash for some K-Sport coil overs, all the bushers under neath, and the Whiteline Stouts swaybars (with kits, coz its a single cam shel…

hey, whats happenin folks ^_^. well, most of my write-ups with my project is on my other site. I'm just posting my old progress and sharing with you guys here. My TA22 was purchased in japan around august of 2006 and it arrived here in the U.S. december of 2006. i don't know weather i am the 2nd or 3rd owner of this ta22. the first owner was a old japanese guy and handed it over to his son, and his son sold it to me. My wife and I picked her up in Seattle, Wa and drove her home to San Francisco, Ca. The name Naomi for my TA22 was created by the majority of votes from the celica folks in classic-celica community. My Naomi is a TA22 S49 model type, so she has a rar…

Can't believe our luck! My brother just bought a ke10 as a project for us. Its a ke10-B, an update 10, with ke11 dash, but still just a K. Apparantly this car spent time in Tokyo, before being inported into Aus. (Has got AMI badges tho) Lived in Darwin, survived cyclone Tracy, although a tree went thru the windscreen and smashed up the dash. Then was shipped to Adelaide, before coming to canberra about 25 years ago. We spotted this car no more then 500 meters from mum and dads house, out front, under a gum tree. The owers were going to sent it to the crusher, we saved it with only a few days to spare! AND we got it for $200!!!!!!!!!! This is about all t…

I am about to get stuck into my Suzota build, or since I'm on the Toyota site should that be a Toyzuki????????? This is a project I though of doing a lot of years ago & just never got around to it. I have a LWB Suzuki Sierra chassis & drive lines & I am about to put a Corolla station wagon onto it. :D It will be an Individually Constructed Vehicle for rego purposes which means about 2k in Engineering fees but ya get that. 1.6 Engine & Auto will be donated from a Vitara (so far), unless you lads can think of a Viable yota alternative, still open to suggestions on that. Will be a long build due to having to feed my 3 snot goblins as well..

Hi guys, just thought id post up some pics of this old girl its a Ke17 sprinter in need of some love that has come our way. It is complete minus a few parts that ill be looking for, plans so far are to do a resto on the car and keep it all original but we all know how easily that can change :y: Did anyone say F20C :wink: This resto might take a while as there are a few cars in line before it so ill keep you guys updated as we have progress. ;)

After several months of having no rolla it started to bug me. So I seen this car advertised on rollaclub and went down to the bank and get a loan. a few days later I was on a plane bound for sydney to pick up my new rolla. specs: 1979 ke55 Coupe, repsrayed white approx 12 months ago, 4k/3spd auto, 2.5" exaust with 3"dump pipe. Progress: today I replaced the fuel tank with one out of my 4 door wreck, replaced rooted dash and pad with overrated ones, fitted mrk3's and purchased some king Springs. Plans: Remove all remaining rust from the car, get side guard and bonney resprayed. clean engine bay up, get the leaves reset and an extra leaf added, fitt kings…

hey all, well yesterday i purchased my first ke30! straight overrated body, fendor mirrors, overrated interior, 5k engine and 4spd box. few questions as i have never had a car with leaf springs. 1- how do i go about lowered the rear 1.5inches approx? 2- what front shock/spring setup can i use for the front? coilovers? 3- engine is a 5k, what carbie setup should i look at? 4- what gearbox should i look at for a 5speed? i don't really wanna change much as i wanna keep it as original (body and inside) as possible. gonna hit up some r31 chaser wheels with white walls for a clean old school look. cheers

So a few weeks back I purchased my 84 ae71 4age powered corolla :). I have already started a build thread on another site but figured ill be on here much more now as I now have a rolla (previously owned 180sx). Info 84ae71 with 4age bluetop vl turbo fuel pump cool pioneer deck interior has been painted cream, looks good except the bits that are peeling exterior i suspect is in quik dry enamel or rattle canned on has really low springs in her (not cut) had rusty gaurds and boot which is what I'm currently working on Here is some photo's from my other thread so far untill I do some more work on her. general pics:

gday all this is my new ke30 which i bought off dpb (daniel). reason i stopped the ke55 build was i came to a stall and needed brake lines handbrake lines fuel lines hard lines, all the shit which i couldnt be stuffed lookin around for them n would probably cost me abit to buy them new. so yeh ive got the ke30 which is a 4 speed auto with a 3k, the autos slippin gears though which isnt a problem coz I'm going to put a 4k manual in, the bodies in pretty much great condition only rust ive seen so far is around the boot seal which wont be a problem to fix, and a little bit of surface rust on the roof which i sanded back last night and sprayed primer over for the moment,…

Welcome, and cheers for viewing my build thread! I bought this car in May '15 and didn't really plan on doing any mods to it, but as we all know, things often don't stay standard for very long. I've always liked these cars, so when I finally had the chance to buy one I opted for this '06 SX6 Sportivo model. It came with 18" TRD wheels, but apart from that it was all stock. It's not very often you see modified Aurions here in New Zealand so it leaves people wondering what the hell it is, while still blending in as a family sedan at the same time. The car now wears 19x9.5" Vertini Magic concave wheels, along with an array of other mods that contribute to the overall loo…

You've got to love the look of an old wagon and now here it is. Picked it up yesterday, what a sweet ride. Plans for 5K, 5speed, 14inch steelies & hubbies, lowered and tint. Don't know what colour to respray it yet. I'm thinking a plain colour, Non-Metallic. Not blue but, because PMP020 has already got one in blue, so i'd like to be different, if possible.

Hey guys thought I better make a thread for my KE30 as I have alot planned for her. Its a 1978 KE30 CS Corolla, which I bought off Fusion on here. Its done a genuine 84,000km with proof and is in generally good condition. However as you may know Ross (Fusion) had put a lot of work into the engine conversion so she isn't very granny spec anymore lol. Basic specs are as follows 1978 KE30 CS Corolla 4 door sedan 3TC 1.8 litre single-cam four which has: - Modified KE30 engine cross member - New waterpump - New leads - New sparkplugs - New rocker cover gasket and a head gasket (I think) - Complete flush out - Emission controls removed - 2" Hurri…

Alright just bought it today and it turned up at the workshop an hour ago. Its a ke70 flat front with good body bit of rust, 173,000 kms, got at wreckers yesterday, bought it today, rego also ran out yesterday but i don't mind. Specs - stock auto 4k seems to be stock everything but i havent exactly driven it much, was a smokers car ;) but i will fix that brand new tyres all round on stockies Plans - swap all body parts from daily ie bad doors bonnet boot, for the ones on there then time to pull out 4k and auto box, anyone want em? pm me then either jdm 4age package my mate has or ill sr20det s15 vvti it, pendin money I'm spendin on it …

Hey rolla club new to the site got a 1980 KE55 Corolla a month or so ago now... I have no experience on working on cars but I believe its time to learn. Inspiration:

I've decided to make a build thread for my corolla and introduce myself now that it is finally getting rego 2 months after its purchase. My name is Luke, I'm starting uni at UTS studying mechanical and this is my Ke70 and our story. I bought the Ke before i sold my 2002 Mazda 323 and after the first week and only week of driving it i wasn't sure whether to keep it. Moving from having a newish car I wasn't used to the idea that rust, rips, tears panel damage and a heater stuck on hot in summer were normal. In the last two months of preparing for blue slip (car was vic rego'd) and watching the car move towards a "stock-ish" appearance I have decided i love it and want t…

Well since I've had the Ke25 for over 4 years now, it was about time I started working on it!! I wanted a Ke25 for a while - one of the guys I worked with at Meridian had a rather modified one. He left & went back to boat building. When I rang him up on the off chance he might want to sell it, he told me he had (just) sold it to someone else I knew, as spares for his race car. No point in pursuing it further so I started looking elsewhere. At the time I was building up Harvie's ke15 (http://www.rollaclub...-ke15-build-up/ One day just prior to Xmas (about 4 years ago ironically) I get a phone call from him. Conversation went something like this: Him - "Guess w…

so here is the new bitch. the one on the right. stay tuned will be lengthy but interesting for sure. the left one is bmxsexmonkey's work space is soming together slowly but will be awesome!

After a bit of searching and looking on these forums every day, i finally found a decent car to house my supercharged 4K. I have had the motor going in my KE38 but running it with 2 different carbys and not really ever getting it to run properly, i recently purchased a 7K efi manifold so that i ca get it running to its full potential. The motor is a KE70 4K that i fully rebuilt with new 40thou pistons, all new bearings, fully reco head with double valve springs, fairly aggresive camshaft that made pretty good power when the car was N/A. I have fitted a SC12 supercharger that is pumping 6psi but that may increase when i get the motor running properly on the efi. …

Well i thought i may as well post up my project! I got my hands on a supercharged 2T-GEU and well was planning on putting it in my wagon! and yeah well that didn't work out as i use my wagon as a daily and need the boot space to carry bikes as i race Dh and 4x! so then i was looking around for another car and got hold of this Ke35! anyway got it back to my place and had a lil fun before i pulled everything out! also gave it a squirt with the karcher! great things they are! got my mate to throw a empty icecream container in the air and took it in turns trying to shoot it! lol small things! :) Anyway drained the radiator and started to pull apart! …

hello my names Andrew grey everyone “hello Andrew" I’ve been on the corollas for about 3 years now, i finally quit the gear sold up everything, thought about getting a nissan, but unfortunately dew to an insanely good deal i had a relapse in my addiction anyways here it is another drive way blockage, i scored a fcuking good deal from an ex member up here in the NT, ae71 shell =factory air= with pretty much all the rust repaired except for one wheel arch, brand new suspension, brand new boot seal (not the mammal type)+ a new window seal, also came with 600 bucks wreath of paint, some sort of 2k blue ish, we'll see what colour when it gets painted, its 2/3's pr…

Well, i finally sold the MS65 crown that i had (the green one on the wisemans radrollaz cruise) and reduced my car count to 3. I could have that so I've bought 2 60's crown utes. One has got a decent body (well i find that out for sure when i pick it up) but not much else and the other is running, has full trim (which is in resonable condition) and everything else but also comes with a massive rust hole. I'm hoping i can make one decent ute out of 2. Plans at the moment include: Brakes that actually stop, i don't know how so many people lived thru the sixties knowing me, probably a fair few suspension mods. I'm already thinking drop spindles and a 3-4 link and co…

Got this the other day, most of you have probobly already seen it on here. Well, i got my p's last month and went the next 4 weeks without a car which was pretty anoying.. so after getting sick of that i desided i may aswell get a little cruiser thats cheap to run etc to have so i don't have to borrows mums car everyday lol..

Hey all, i now have a ke30 2 door corolla. My turbo Ke55 is on hold for the moment :P Here are some pics of the car when i picked it up. As you can see it needs a little bit of work! This car has a 5k motor and a 5 speed gearbox. the body is fairly straight apart from a few dents around the place. and there is minimal rust.. compared to my other corolla! I am going to spray the car acrylic white to give it a mirror finish. also some future plans are white wall tires a rear venetian blind and probably lowered a little bit. other then that ill probably keep it stock standard as i have my quick little red rocket as my other car. I am also looking for a…

So the day i bought it (The cream one) Not so long ago.. And what it looks like at the moment. (colour looked good in can but its a bit bright on such an old car i think :bash:) I tested the lights and bumpers out to see how they look against the custom metallic blue Just a few other things Tell me what you think of it?

Alrighty guys, I have... Also have... And... I'll leave you guys to it.... :cool:

[iNTRODUCTION] Hey all, my name is Ethan and I'm from Railton, Tasmania. Depending which way you look at it, I'm either fortunate or rather unfortunate. I was 'fortunate' enough to have inherited my KE70 from one of my best friends, the 'unfortunate' part is that he had to pass away for me to get this opportunity. We bought this KE with the intention to build it into our own little drift pig purely for learning the basics and getting some sideways action. He was the purchaser, it was his legally, but it was realistically ours, I had intended on doing a lot of the mechanical work with him, because we were best mates, it was our passion and our project. …

Hey all.. My name is Nathan, I'm 19 and from Brisbane, and I thought i'd share my love for KE70's by putting a post up of my build... A mate of mine whom which owned the car was looking to upgrade to something other than this 'pile of shit', and so with a price tag of $500 I jumped at the chance, and obviously for that price the car wasn't going to be in the best shape, The body was 99% straight (Next to no dings/Dints) But what I did get was an eye-sore of an interior and a boot full or rust, Litterely!.... Basic plans: *Drift* * 1UZ-FE 4.0L V8 (Eventually super/turbo charge) * Series 5 RX7 5speed gearbox with a custom 1 peice tailshaft * RX7 Dif…

G'day all, I've recently brought a ke55 rolling shell off another rollaclub member, the shells in great nik, has a small rust spot on the back left door and a 1cm rust spot in the boot seal, easy fix :yes: it has abit of crash damage to the right hand rear quarter panel which the previous owner fixed up abit, so apart from that the bodies in awsome condition :) the plans for the car: well I'm gonna start by fixing the rust spots and start looking for front quarter panels which i hope maybe someone knows of someone selling them? plus i'll need a front end such as the lights which i wanna get from a ke30- the circle ones, grill, front and back bumpers bonet etc…

Hi, I’ve been a forum lurker for years now and finally thought it was time to put up my build thread :) Expect it to be VERY long, sorry :P First a bit about me. My name is Marcus and I’m 17. I’ve been hooked on cars my entire life, it’s so true my first words were brooom broom, haha. At 12 my Dad bought me a 1981 ke70 from my step cousin. It sat in the backyard for 9 months and we never did any motorkhana’s like was ment so one night me and my mate snuck it out and went for joyride, 5 hours of fun ultimately due to some crappy circumstances and probably karma ended with this…. Needless to say it never drove again. But I'd got the ke70 bug, and even when a…
