Hi everyone, This is my new beauty that I hope survives longer than the life of all five of my previous cars put together (not very long at all)! So it's a Tumut Blue KE70 sedan with the regular 4A-GE engine conversion. It also features some suspension modifications, including front coilovers, stiffer rear springs, adjustable shock absorbers, some larger sway bars, AJPS adjustable panhard rod and also an aluminium fuel cell in the boot, which will make it's way under the boot at a later stage. Here's some pictures! I picked her up on Friday off another RC member in Canberra and eagerly drove it home, knowing that the engine could exp…

Well it was a few month's ago when I decided I needed another car.. Something cheap to run and something relatively nice to drive. Without having any luck on a decision, I decided it would be a bad idea to just jump into anything so I played the research and wait game. The missus also needed a car, and one came up. It was my Grandfather's Ae82 hatch, 3 speed auto, 285xxx k's, faded paint with minimal rust. As he can no longer drive and she needed a car more than I needed another car we claimed it. Only problem is that it was in Mackay.... So Booked our 1 way flight's and headed up there to see some of the family and get her a car. The day before we were sc…

Hey Guys and Girls , my names Jordan I'm relatively new here although i've been following many posts for a while now and this will be my first :D. I've recently bought myself a 1975 KE30 from SA, which i admit was a huge mistake, and have paid for now. I guess its just a lesson learnt in time.. I got it trucked over here and whatnot and discovered it wasn't in as good a nick as i thought it would be (or the nick that the dude said it would be in), with buschings needing replacing, slight surface rust here and there ripped drivers seat (which is obviously fairly common) cracked dash and some other minor things which honestly i expected and i definitely rushing into it an…

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:

hey guys i missed the corollas so I'm buying a ke30 next week found it in some 1 front yard n just went n asked n I'm buying it off the old man for 300bux!! in fair good condition runs good, 3k 4spd il take some pics of it asap as i get it and show every 1 plans are to cut exhaust n hang out side of car hoppign we can get some flames grab some spray paint n give it a lacker. strip all the heavy shit out of it putt the roll cadge in, then hire a trailer and take out to little beach and give it a thrashing on the dry lakes. thanks for looking pics soon! if ya got any crazy ideas that u want done, just for fun I'm willing to do it to the car

Hey guys, My name is Connor and this my Ke70 that i picked up a couple of weeks ago, she's a 4k 4sp with 365k-odd kms, so she is slow but it has: - King Springs 'lows' at all 4 corners - xt130 front struts, unknown shocks - xt130 LCAs - xt130 rotors - rt132 twin-piston calipers - Sigma GSR 'Pepperpot' 15x6.5 , wrapped in Pirelli 195/50 rubber So she handles very well for what it is, also i think the pepper pots look retro as. My Plans are: 1: Sort out rear-end grinding noise (wheel bearing kit purchased) 2: Deal with the rust in the boot channel, LR 1/4 panel, fuel filler area and around the tail lights. 3: Fit my just jap fro…

Hey guys this is my Ae92, Its 3/4 Finished now, I'll throw some pics up and story from then till now. Basically, it was my Ex Gf's Mums car, She owned it from new, It was then passed onto my Ex when she got her P's, She got a new car, I took owner ship of it, Wanted something cheap to run and maintain as a daily. Its had a reasonable life, Owned by 2 mechanics now. The Ex neglected it a bit, but considering its got over 360,000 on it and is still going strong, I can't complain. I think since I've owned it I would have spent maz $1200 getting it to the stage its at now, Still have a reasonable list of things to go to 'finish' it. All the work has been done by myself, or he…

gday everyone, this is my ke16 I semi rebuilt, painted etc. It's got a rebuilt 4k with 7ke fuel injection, crane cams electric distributor and coil, 5speed, tacho. We put it on the dyno last friday and had huge back fire type flutters out of the throttle body, since running the motor in over the last two weeks it hasn't been reving well at all, so i thought a tune would sought things out but the owner of the dyno seems to think a lobe on the cam has been chewed off. We measured the valve lift and it looks like my rebuild could of been a rip off, I asked for a tighe cam with .423 valve lift and we measured around .25. The cam comes out tomorrow for…

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…

So a few mates and I have a stable of dungers we smash about in a paddock with, as you do. This is currently the cleanest of the group - for now. It's rocking a mad tight 300,000ks+ 3K... for some reason, not sure why. Locked diff. Bald tyres. Tow bar. TRD 80's rattle can paint job. And here is a couple of videos from a couple of khanacross events some of us went and had a play at, mainly just to slide about and have a laugh. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5zm9ysGD0nw http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7CS_vBQStPo Recently picked up another addition to the stable, a baby blue/moss KE70 wagon.

I recently bought a good condition a 1974 KE25 Deluxe Coupe which means it has AIR CONDITIONING!!! named "Lady Brown" It is a 1.2 litre 3K-h 2 speed automatic toyoglide which heavily lacks in acceleration! It is dead stock but my plans are to put a larger carby in it, possibly twin SU's or just a single webber and to do a manual conversion. It has several very small dents on the doors due to inconsiderate people in carparks, to solve this problem i have installed some bumper strips stretching the entire length of the car. i actually think it looks better like this. There are few small spots of rust no bigger than a five cent piece on the roof as well as the boot …

I purchased this awesome little car not long ago now. It is a very clean vehicle, it drives really smooth on the road and it is very comfortable. It has a fully rebuilt diff, a well looked after 4K, all rust has been cut out and new plates welded in, and also a full respray, as in door jams, engine bay, boot etc etc. :D Overall I am very happy with the little beast. :yes: Since I have had it I have only put the dress rims on and the eyelids. :wink: I actually, (quite surprisingly) can't bring myself to modify this car as per the norm. Lowering, exhaust etc etc. Although I think I will lower it a bit but not so much that it will be breaking back low.…

Hi All. Scotland based newbie here, with a KE25 imported from Australia. The long term plan here is to do a restoration with a 4AGE running on carbs. To then be used for fun and the occasional track day. When I bought it: It was white, unmolested, no previous welding done and relatively rust free (for Scottish standards at least). When it was in Australia: When it arrived with me: First impressions were pretty good. Got it rolled into the garage and started making a list of parts I needed. There was some damage in shipping from Aus as you can see in the photos - Worst being the front apron and indicator lights needing som…

So named because of the dozen or so little f@$kers Kristy had to pick off of me. It's a 1962 DODGE Sweptline D200 3/4 ton longbed pickup. I got this because.......; a) I have always loved the lines of the Sweptline Dodges ('61-'71), b) The B3000 is too light for all the towing I do, c) Kristy and I will be moving to Washinton state in a year or so and the B3000 is WAY too light to pull the cars, moving trailer and assorted bullshit the 2,000 miles. So here it is. It looks as if someone did all the bodywork, put it in primer and junked it. It's been sitting since '92 in my buddy's pasture on rims UNDER the drums. Kristy and I went out there yesterday, put a set of tir…

G'day all, Some of you may of remembered this car before, anyways heres some pics, feel free to comment. I'll get more pics today. Enjoy. Brad.

Old specs were here, new stuff at the end :y:

hey aussies :sob: some dope as rides from the mean streets of the north shore, auckland... so they arent all corollas, but most are of the mighty toyota creed :yes: the ke20, worked 3k, rims etc. is no longer with me anymore :hmm: had no motor in these pics, hence the tractor like height of the front my brothers lada... in the weeds, 15's, fiat 1800cc twin cam :dance: will have more pics up in the next few days. brothers rx30 cressida, sacked on 16" mesh rims, crappy gloss black paint job :hmm: will be getting resprayed one of these days (I'm a car painter by trade) and last but not least my new gx60 cressida, going to pick i…

Well I figure I better start a thread on this thing for two reasons, 1: I'm about to do some work to it 2: It's trying to kill me, so I may as well post it up before it gets the chance Ok, a few of you would have seen this thing at the recent cruise, it is the replacement for the Panel Van that found a ditch (found more stuff to take pictures of BTW, will get some tomorrow), and best of all, it was cheap. So I buy it unregistered, do some of the dodgiest ghetto repairs known to man, and get it registered, engine sounds like death but is surprisingly strong, radiator leaks, gearbox sounds like it wants to drop a cog or three, diff clunks n rattles and has so…

My 82 Carina TA-60 liftback ,under reconditioning. Has only done 57.000km.... Is going to be a nice and clean old school toyota..... Running the stock 2T. Levin GT

Hey All, The story goes "the wife wanted to start rally, so I thought we'd start with something we can have some fun in and see if we're serious." I don't know one guy that wouldn't say OK if his better half wanted to get into motorsport!!! Just putting the car up for people to see... Not much special going on on the outside, or inside for that matter! Bought the car for 400 big ones off the side of the road. It was owned by a few young guys that thrashed it round the paddock. Too good for that I thought so I saved it from a certain miserable death!! Since having it I had the hotbox gasket replaced. It was a bit leaky and the reason the young guys wer…

hey all just bought this on ebay last night for 1125 bucks! fully mod plated 4AGE 20V silvertop 112fwhp... sard fuel reg 2.5 inch exhaust pod, surge tank bosch main pump and carby lift pump... ssl king springs and bronze racing rims... only needs front and rear engine mounts and rego and ive got a wicked daily while the ca18 ae71 is off the road doin bodywork, diff, suspension, paint, brakes etc etc list goes on... enjoy!

Hey every one. How are you all going, just wanted to share my car with you all.. i bought this car for a daily as i already have a skyline as a weekend/cruise car Ok it took some time to find this car and didn’t think i could find it for the price i was after. i only had 2.5k to spend, and i was really looking to find a Corolla Seca 1990 SX that has the 4age engine. the reason i wanted a seca in the first place was because my first car i learnt to drive in was a 1989 corolla seca, hence ive always had a passion for them. i went looking around a lot every day trying to find the right one, and finally last night i found the exact one i wanted. it is a 1990…

I have been here a while and thought It was time I showed a few pictures of my car and what type of driving it sees. the car is a dark blue KE70 flat front and has been owned by nearly everyone. I live just off Magill road and grip drive through the hills on a weekly basis. the original 4KC was quite a screamer and never missed a beat, however a 4K has little to no torque and to climb hills with speed there is no substitute. turbo or supercharged engines have too many potential issues that will lead to increased repair/running costs, increased problem diagnosis, installation difficulty. the "feel" and "free" rev of a naturally aspirated engine i…

So I have finally started on the restoration project for an 1974 Corolla ke26 wagon. He is affectionately called Kevin. Anyone please feel free to ask questions and I'll try to answer then as best I can. But I have started stripping the basic panels from the car. They have been acid dipped and coated in kephos to keep the rust at bay for now.

Hey, So had issues registering the Statesman in the NT so ended up having a whinge and moving it back down to SA, purchasing a Mark II and having that bought up to Darwin and registered. Since then have had people who own Chaser's contacting me saying that I'm the first Mark II they have seen in the NT, so yay :D. Things to fix: Sideskirts (replace) Front left corner lip. Rear right just near the arch lip. Things to upgrade: Radio / Sound System FMIC Rims Slimline Weathershields Rear Sun Visor Pics:

86 project is up and running. Time and money permitting should be going early to mid next year. Suspension - megan racing coilover setup, cambertops and damp/rebound adjustment. Whiteline adjustable swaybars front and rear, adjustable lateral rods and panhard JDM rear end. t3 strut tower braces, advan 14x6 rims Engine - big port blue top, 20v ITB's, t3 adaptor, HKS 272 cams, 0.7ml head gasket, valve springs, cam pulleys, microtech, induvidual coils [atta c hment=47527:DSC01391.JPG]

Hey Hey, I bought this yesterday for $500 which i thought was an alright price for a Ke70 panel van. Specs: 5K. 5 speed. Fusion 6x9's and fusion 6's. Leaf sprung S series diff. 1 piece tail shaft, Sedans have a 2 piece item. 1 glass rear side window, The rest are metal. Pictures: New dash going in when i get some more time.

heres some pictures of my 1973 ke20 peanut corolla. original colour is bamboo. I am 16 years old and this will be my first car. I got the car in january this year, it was going to be my sisters but she found a really nice original ke25. All of the mechanicals are now done and I have started stripping it and getting it ready for painting. I will be painting it in original bamboo colour and the grill, light surrounds etc will be in silver grey. I will be doing it in acrilic laquer because it will be my first paint job and dad says it is easier to use for the first time. I helped paint my brothers 1982 lowlux project in acrilic and it looks great. When I got my ke20…

Originally the Easy Rolla was going to be used as a motokhana car for me & my son however situations change and it now looks like being my daily driver. This has resulted in a need to rethink the whole direction of the car and a new plan has been born. Engine wise its basically a stock 3K with extractors & a cam and thats the way it will stay for a while. The interior is another issue all together, its basically stuffed which wasnt goint to be a problem when the plan was a motokhana car but now that its going to be used as a driver I need to give it an EXTREME MAKEOVER :) For those that don't know, this is Easy Rolla currently This is the inter…

Just bought this orange ke70 4sp manuel 4k power I'm the 3rd owner with logbooks all ive done is dopped it and put sum 18inch white diablos, dumpy exhuast, crystal lights

Ok here goes since my last update alot has changed....now being a kiwi i thought i better do what kiwis do best....slap a rotary in it!!!! ive been busy collecting parts for my conversion but since I'm only a apprentice money is tight and things are moving VERY slowly, so far ive got a rx4 13b (biggest ports from factory) block in pieces which ive cleaned up and will be sending to rotomotion to get bridge ported in the next few weeks when there done I'm going to rebuild it my self. Now ive still got a few things left to buy: * A radiator (hopefuly pick one up next week) * A Gearbox * Fuel setup (got one lined up for next week) * Rebuild kit When its ready to go…

G'Day all, So I have had this Ke38 wagos for 2 years now, and I have had it as a fantastic daily for the majority of that time. The mods only consisted of a 2" straight through exhaust and headers, reset leafs, king springs, monroe shocks and a screaming gilmer drive. It sat on glossy 15" silhouette steelies at the back with white lettering on the tyres and fresh black "front runner" ke stockies. looked and sound ridiculous and people would never want to race at the lights haha. It has been off the road for a few months now and so far I have taken the whole driveline out, put a whole hilux rear axle in, drum to drum, which was purchased previously modified to …

Just though I would make this thread to share my car with everyone. A couple of months ago I purchased my first car after searching for a while. It seems to be a very honest car with minimal rust and a few modifications. I plan to keep the car as a daily for now and just tidy it up a bit, maybe lower the back a little and add a few of my own touches to the car. So, the specs Engine 4A-C backed by a t50, mild cam, mild head work, re jetted carby, extractors and 2inch exhaust, extreme clutch, short shifter Suspension low king springs all round, short stroke shocks, whiteline front and rear sway bars and adjustable panhard, front strut brace, cusco castor bra…

New to the whole forum deal but i figured its time to go public with the keto. It's been in the build for a year now. A daily drive, a weekend warrior and a drift toy... The ideal car right? A 1983 silver flat front ke70 that was given to our family for my sister and i to learn how to drive. So far i have fitted a set of autometre gauges (coolant temp, oil pressure and a tacho), Fuel cell and holly blue fuel pump, upgraded fuel lines to handle efi later... maybe, twin 45mm DCOE webber carbies, electronic egnition upgrade, CIG locked diff, TRD adjustable rear shocks, OXY springs, Ebay special hydraulic E-brake (yet to be plumbed up) Pictures to foll…
