So, The story goes along the lines of this. One day, a little old woman decided to get her usual 6 monthly service on her car. The added note on the repair order was that it would idol a little rough at the lights. Considering the car would travel 1 return trip a week from home to the golf course on a thursday mid-morning, every week since 91, she must have been pretty switched on to pickup on it! If thats not good enough, try the fact that she was in her early 80's & the genuine rims don't have one cm of gutter rash. Turns out like most cars with a 7M these days, a simple service is oil, filter, head gasket. This one was no exception. haha. Long story…

G'day! I've been checking out this forum for a long while so thought I had better join and introduce myself!! My name is Michael and I've had my little KE25 for about 14 years now - some of you may know me from TOYMODS or AUSROTARY. It took me around 6 years to get it road worthy the first time - only to have it broken into and stripped for all the good parts. Another 2 years later and more money saw it back on the road with new interior. About 2 years after that, I blew the engine and gearbox at Eastern Creek and the car was off the road again for another year!! New engine and new gearbox was installed only to finally blow the standard diff up!! (surprise surprise…

Hey guys, Recently bought myself a 82' Flat front ke70. Bought it off "old fella" on here. I had been looking for a few months before i found one i was keen to buy. It has a rebuilt engine, with a 25/65 cam, new exhaust etc. Was by far the best ke i came across in my price range. I wont be going all out on this car as i have a 78 XC falcon that takes up the majority of my spare time and a 77 120Y datto that takes up the rest. At the moment the plans for the old girl are- Lower it- using pedders low springs and pedders short travel shocks. Paint it- This wont come for a while as i need to get the Xc and datto out of the garage to get the keto in to paint it. …

Just acquired this ke70 from a co-worker, he sold it to at a pretty cheap price. It does need shitloads of work, some body work needs doing, it's got a fawkin transplanted driver's door with different color. Smells like a sewer inside, but the engine runs good. My plans for this KE, change the engine, trans, dash, interior, paint, wheels, practically every freakin thing except the shell. My customs agent said my crate from overseas with all my parts has arrived, and can be picked up in the next couple of days. In the crate are my goodies 4AGE 20 valve BT T50 trans Quad round headlight conversion Extractors Bodykits AE111 Dash AE86 Rear with LSD Ra…

Finally after about a million years and way Too much $$$ I'm getting around to sharing my keto, had it for 10 years now (7 off the road) and slowly (read: snail) I've been getting bits done for the last 2/3 years. Now I got it from some old lady down south with a stupidly low 65k on it as my first car, after pretty much completely Jing it out with massive straight pipes, longchamps and 'custom' low, then in turn losing my license for 5 years the poor keto was returned to rock stock after 20k (and 2 clutches and 1 diff) and left to rot at my parents till couple years ago to be treated to the complete overhaul it deserved, with a newly installed meaty diff and hardened clu…

hey ppls, we have recently purchased a 71 ke20, ive never had a corolla before, a few ra28's have been my only Toyota's, but this 1 came up for sale at a "reasonable" price and I couldn't help myself. as you can see from the pics, the engine bay and interior are pretty neat, the passenger seat will be restitched, but I think the cracks in the dash will be staying as can't afford a new 1, carpet in the front is a littlee worn but some new mats will fix that problem, maybe a new front carpet kit might be on the list depending on the cost, I want the car as neat and original as possible, even the original radio works a treat!! my plans are to respray it, new front shocks, …

Made my first ever purchase of an oldschool rwd Toyota about a year ago with the intentions of restoring her and possibly making some money on it. Few rust patches (turned out to be ALOT worse), loads of gay leds/supercheap auto crap but heres the spec list: Engine: - 1300cc 4K - heat wrapped extractors - Some querky barely attached mushroom filter setup - Eagle 8.0mm ignition leads - New Carb that needs tuning - New points, condenser & dizzy cap - Came with free oil leaks from dizzy o-ring that felt like rock and from an invisible sump washer :/ - Custom fitted R33 strut brace - Somewhat custom 2"ish exhaust, one Coby resonato…

the project has started for my 1984 ae86 sprinter. first things first, the front had to be fixed up due to a little bit of a love tap that saw me bend the rail, and dam was it hard to find a good front end! (thanks Vu) she is gettin a full spray job in toyota maroon again with black bumpers and bonnet (fully sik jdm style) and sitting at home is a gze bottom end, with 20 valve top end conversion waiting to slip in, will be a few months b4 that happens though. got a few pics of the restoration process for ya p.s, if theres anyone with a t50 for sale in vic, pls pm me

Hey guys i've wanted to share this with you guys for a while now just been flat out busy! Some of you may know i bought thrillers panel van back around new year.

Hey everyone just got this corolla Wagon for $500. I reckon its pretty good, nice body, and it goes good. I am putting a set of wheels on it with some sticky yokohama advans. Will also be doing a custom twin front shock set up which works awesome, and it should go around like its on rails. also will be lowering the front and rear so it looks good but still steers well As for the engine probaly will build up a 4k, or put a 18RG with twin carbys on it. but fuel isn't getting cheaper.

I have a KE70 flat front as some of you may be aware. This is my thread for my shitbox. Mods: Coilovers with 8kg springs. Cusco camber tops. Cusco Strut brace. spja RCAs. Recon'd Rona LCA's. AE86 Power Steering arms. RA40 Tie rod ends. JDM vented disks. JDM calipers. 'race brakes' pads. (not installed yet) Braided brake lines. Locker. Flacon rear springs. nardi + Hello Kitty HB. silvla seat. Dildo shifter. Drift button. Rims. MADHOUSE JDM FRP Lip with stitching. (driveway liked it better in 4 pieces) Shitty straight through exhaust which sounds like a tractor sometimes. 3k carbie with no emissions. Wanting/to do: Wheel Alignment. …

bought this around october 2008, from Japanese Performance Imports in Wingfield, it came with rosejointed castor arms, T series LSD a pair of SW20 MR2 Buckets, and some positive offset 14inch longchamps. Wasn't too happy with the pressure pack can panda paint job and rounded out rear quarters due to dodgy repairs so within the week a deal had been made with John and Simon from Phoenix Paint and Panel to fix up the dents and straighten out the panels. Before long the project had escalated into a full respray. John and Simon did a great job of the body and paintwork and i can't thank them enough. when i first got the vertex kit it didn't fit right but now it looks …

Hey everyone, my names Josh and this is my 1976 KE30 Corolla. Been a member here a little while so i thought id post up my pride and joy.. I've had the car for almost 3 months now. Standard 3k i havnt changed much at all really just full service, changed water pump, new front brake pads and rebuilt alternator. Not to sure what i want to do with her yet but am trying to get some goodies together to start a manual conversion. I'll post up some pics so you can have a look let me know what you think :D :D cheers for lookin -=KE30=-

This will be a thread that won't move far at all - probably as far as whitewalls and thats it. But i felt i should put some pics up as it is quite a nice car and i want to get some photographs with some other ke20 adelaide boys. I've got my girlfriends ke20 for a few months now that she is in Europe. It's completely original except for the speakers and the cd player. She bought it from an old lady from memory and has owned it since. I cleaned it today and it came up quite nice. I have booked it in with Whitewalls SA today for next friday. I will put some more pictures up them! I am keen for some pictures of ke2X as i am buying a new came…

hi guys thought its about time i start to show off my 20. she is my pride an joy , i have done the whole thing myself from painting the car , fitting a holden turbocharged 6 cyl 4 speed , to custom interior , and all the electronics of her. i compete in most burnout comps , but as I'm still new to the turbo side of things i come along small problems , such as fuel pressures too low ,or too high , blowing gear boxes ( slamming them into second don't help) so when all the crap is sorted out it should be a real show stopper! the ins an outs motor - holden black 3.3 ,solid turbo grind cam (mild) electronic dizzy hooked up with rev limi…

So... I was having a couple of beverages with this german backpacker the other day, and, long story short, she gave me her car. Its a 1980 Mazda 929. 2 litre, 5 speed, Aircon. Grotesquely overweight, and more akin to driving a lounge room than a car.... with period correct brownest of brown interior, resplendent in crushed velvety stuff (striped and pleated) and laminex woodgrain. Sexy. Now ordinarily I'd just take something like this out bush and see how well it was engineered, but unfortunately: a: It drives beautifully b: It is 100% completely rust free c: It is completely original, unmolested and DEAD straight... other than the front.... So I've decided …

Hey Hey, I decided not to spend thousands a front wheel drive so i want another *E7*, And i got this T18 :bash: Myae82 is just getting a stock rebuild now for daily use. 1980 Te72 T18. 3tc and T50. 32/36 weber. Extractors. Exedy HD clutch. Short shifter not a cut down shifter. TRD 2 way LSD, Toight too. 14x7 wheels, don't know what they are ? 185/60/R14 tires. King springs. Corona lower control arms for the camber :yes: Interior is awesome nick so is the body bar the paint, Bit thin but at least its rust free. Des ;)

Hi, my names nathan...... had this car for just over 2 years now. bought it 100% stock in pretty good condition (didnt have all the usual problems that these cars normally had) I horded parts while i was on my L's and when i got my P's, i fitted most of them (which wasnt much really :)) then 2 weeks later i had an accident, was written off, but cos i decided not to tell my insurance company about the modifications, they woudlnt cover me, so i fixed it ouf of my own pocket.... and did all the work myself aswell :hmm: car was off the road for about 6 months. Car: Toyota Corolla SX seca series 2 Engine: 4AGE, stock. planned build of a 7AGE very soon Bod…

Been lurking on this forum for quite a while. About time I posted some pics of the stuff I've been hoarding over the years! Sorry for the crumby pic, its a gloomy day up here in FNQ. On right is where it all started - my trusty 1988 AE82 cs sedan. Its been in the family since new, I've driven it for 10 years and it still looks pretty much brand new. I've upgraded it with a few bits off wrecked cs-x models, such as tacho, clock, centre console and wheels. It also has the speaker pods off a vs commodore grafted to the front doors. Other than that, its stock and will stay that way. In the middle we have a 1986 AE86 coupe. It came to Australia a few yea…

Hi over here, long time no see, I'm back with another car. I already was here but no pictures are left on the old threads Many moons ago I had this KE71 That after a lot of hardwork came out looking like this And after a while without a RWD Corolla (I had an AE101 Corolla) I came across this, and I'm the proud owner of an 1973 Toyota Corolla, also known as mighty TE27. As a bit of history, the Toyota dealer for Uruguay is AYAX and it didn't import any Toyota until the 1980's so anything before that is very strange, so when I came across a sale post that reads "Toyota Corolla 1973" I had to have it, so I went to see the car, this are the fi…

here she is 122k km's full service history. $8,500 bargain. got it yesterday!

Hayy there Every one.. So i Recently purchased a Ke20, With no intent to what so ever. How i Got such a car: I was at a car meet, standing taking photos of a Immaculate original White Ke20. When A Guy said, Is this yours? I said no but i wouldn't mind owning something this clean.. And he said I have one for sale, I said how much.. he said $$ a few hundred, I said what condition. Complete he said Jut a few Things to Fix.. I said SOLD. Payed the next day picked up today ;) May i just start buy saying, I have NEVER, EVER looked at a corolla and thought ill own one of them one day. Or Even, Taken notice of one on the streets. So by this I'm basically saying, I coul…

Hey all, I just recently re purchased my old ke10. i owned it a fair few years ago, i bought it as a green running/registered car. Then Painted it matt black. Then got bored of it a bought a turbo corona and let it sit around for a year or so. Fit a 4age in its engine bay but never got it running. then i sold it... LINK :How i sold it.. Now i bought it back, its a little more stripped to how i sold it.. and has a few less parts to when i sold it... I believe its been through about 3 other owners since me, but never registered under another persons name. This is how i got it back! But all in good time :)

this is my 1981 KE70 panelvan, bought for nearly nothing off an elderly man. had no modifications apart from a crappy immobilizer that eventually shit itself in the middle of nowhere with only a screwdriver and a pair of pliers to bypass it... also it got defected about a week before the rego ran out, but its all been fixed awaiting a vehicle inspection. this is a photo of what it originally looked like just with black stockys have since done only visual mods (just until it passes inspection {if it passes inspection haha})

Since changes to my employment situation were forced upon me in December, I have been belting around in my mechanics AE91 Levin. Its been quite a pleasant place to be, but two doors didn't really suit having a 5 month old bub. So when this very clean AE95 wagon popped up on carsales for not much money, complete with rego until August, I thought it might be worth a look. Seeing some of the TCCAV lads's machines also helped the cause, their fondness for them is infectious!! Rocked on down to Frankston on Sunday, took it for a drive, did the deal and brought her home. I am very pleased with how clean it is. Allegedly owned by mechanics previous to the owner I bou…

G'day guys, i have had a KE55 project for about a year now, lost intrest and is still sitting in the backyard. Seen a chick driving a KE30 around for a few months and always wanted to ask her about if she'd ever sell it, but couldn't get into contact with her. Then my girlfriend told me that she knew the girl. So my girlfriend gave me the ke30 chicks number, So i messaged her. Looked at the car the next day and bought the car the day after. It has some rust, but i can fix it due to now owning a MIG welder for the past few days :) Bought some sort of Corona alloys for $150 with about 95% tread :blush: Anyway here are some pictures of the old girl. …

Hey everyone! Here is some pics of my missus AE112R Corolla Turbo!! She doesnt want to do too much to the car, just the usual stuff :hmm: Lowered, Rims, Exhaust, CAI. I, myself, installed an apexi EL2 boost gauge last weekend, which wasnt hard to do until you find the right vacuum hose to tee into! Removed the front grill to expose the cooler a bit more. It looks more aggressive like this >| Catback exhaust is getting done tomorrow :yes: 2.5"!!

Hey guys finally i have found myself a ke20 and been able to go through with the sale. I bought it Friday off Ra28gt and have been loving life since. I haven't taken any pictures as yet but hes made a thread about it... Looks the same so far... I do like the granny look so i think that i will go with that so far.. Plans are to put a sun visor on it and maybe widen the stock 12". It does need new carpet and roof lining that will be done in the next few weeks. Other than that its up in the air. The car comes with a spare 3k engine and i am undecided whether or not build that up with cam, webbers etc.. or go for a 4/5k? would it be worth spending money on a 3k?…

Hey all, We got a overrated 55 that me and my brother went halfs in 2-3 years ago from a one owner old granny. anyways cut a long story short me and my brother were doing a burnout and then donuts and smashed into dads trailer lool. only damange is bumper, grill and right gaurd. I'm currently 16 get my lisence in 5 weeks and I'm on 11 weeks holiday. plans for the car are to paint it killrust red, hoping for a 5k motor, which i still need to find hah and putting a 3k bigport head on that i have spare for my race car with somthing equal to a 212 waggot cam for 3k. budget is around 1500 give or take 500 and i know it doesnt seem much but we have 80 percent of the parts allr…

I recently aquired a 74 KE20 to use as my primary track car while I finish a few other projects. It has already been extensively modified and mod plated for everything which is the reason I bought this particular car. The build specs as I bought it were: 3TC Bored and Stroked close to 2L TRD cam, twin webers, fixed timing dizzy T50 with trd close ratio gearset RX2 with mazworks LSD, 4 wheel discs, hydraulic handbrake 6 Point cage, seam welding, buckets and harnesses Rays 3pc meshies Mod plated for all of the above in QLD in '95 The bloke I bought it off was a dodgey prick though, and despite my only condition on buying the car that it be a 'nothing t…

hi well allot of you know me as a fool and stooge but allot like me, so here is my new daily driver its a A1 immaculate MX32 cressida paint it a tad shabby but every think is original, only have the one pic as it just got home plans are, to keep it as is, lower it with lowering hook things (spring locks) put on my ssr meshies and a sterio install, possibly an exhaust but not just yet its just a daily but will go in car shows and suck with some hope, you should see under the engine bay!

well, after much procrastination i have finally gotten around to making a thread dedicated to my 1972 KE20 corolla. i acquired it back in 2007 as a birthday present from my parents. being 17 and having no money it just sat there for 8 months. then one day i decided i needed to start on this project so i could get it done before my 18th birthday. so the car went off to the local mechanic and the diagnosis was not good. it needed new front shocks, the front seats re trimmed, a new bonnet(this one had rusted so bad half the frame had collapsed) and then the big one. the engine had done the big end bearings. it was dead. so i did a bit of research and found Peter Robinson…

hi everybody, i thought i might as well tell you all about my recently aquired 1970 ke20. i purchased it about 4 months ago as a $200 shitter and have spent most of that time getting it ready for the road, its only a couple of weeks away i reckon. ok firstly i have given it a full respray minus the engine bay in the original white, it has black centred 15" watanabe wheels, ke55 diff and front brakes, microtech injected std 3k for now with custom plenum vl throttle body and falcon injectors, 2.25" exhaust 2x hotdogs and a nice cannon, ke55 5spd, later model bonnet and front bits, new carpet, new seals, r33 gtst front seats, nardi wheel, rx5 centre console, fairly descent s…
