Rollaclub Rides

Hey, i've been doin this for about 6 months now. i have it at work so i do a bit on my lunch breaks, after work when i can and on sat mornings. thought i'd put up a bit of it. Nothin special just a stock 30 with a 3K and 4spd. I got it for free so can't complain! Over not a bad little car. My plans were to give it a quick scotch brite and matt black. :) That went out the window of course! Just got away from me. Started rubbing and didn't stop. I now want to get it as straight as i can and spray it the colour of the ford rip curl utes. (greeny blue) And now i want to put a vn v6 in it. Cos they're so cheap. pics wont work. it says they're too big? it only lets …

Okay, I've decided to list Lola in the Projects section. This topic will cover any stuff I do to improve her and also what I plan to do. For those of you unaware, below are her current specs. 1981 KE55 4-door AE101 4A-GZE T50 transmission Borg-Warner KE55 diff (currently broken, soon to be welded) I have at this stage removed the back seat, carpets, and heater. Remember, this car is for circuit racing only. I could have got her registered (she's been registered when owned by the first owner), but it'd be too much hassle and I want to make her the best race car I can afford to, and that will probably make her unroadworthy. Now, here's what I'm currently …

Lola. Got her for a song. 4k Trimatic Original 149xxxkm Nice amount of rust, typical for this model. To do list: Brakes and exhaust getting done Friday. 2" pipe through to single muffler, should be loud enough. Will get extractors after rego. Organize RWC Rust being welded up within the next week Up idle to get rid of stutter at idle. Thinking of setting idle at 950rpm. Replace stock wheels with 13" mags. Rego. Plans: Lower, kingies up front and lowering blocks on the rear. Bigger cam Tacho, but moulded into instrument cluster. ke30 bars ke30 tail lights Modify an AE92 centre console to hide handbrake and mould up cupholders. General…

Hi all, Seeing as I've been coming to this forum for god knows how long, and finally have a Toyota!, I thought I'd start a build on the ke11 I bought about a month ago off a fellow rollaclub member. So it's a 1970 ke11 been resprayed in sky blue 13in Mazda wheels with hubcaps Lowered 2in all round (I think) Ke70 brakes up front Ke20 collapsible steering column and steering box Twin circuit brake master cylinder Has the original corolla 1200 fender badges Front mount cooler hidden behind grill 4agte (4agze bottom end with bigport head) Ross forged pistons 4agze rods ARP main bolts and head studs Comtect steel 1.8 head gasket Acl race bearings …

Well I thought I'd start a new thread for this AE71 I bought a few weeks ago. It was in a bit of a front to rear prang with the previous owner unfortunately so a little bit of 'extra' work I originally didn't want to encounter in a build up will be needed. I bought a damaged car as opposed to straight because it came up at the right price. Those of you who know I have a daily driver AE71, don't get it confused with this car. My daily driver thread... http://www.rollaclub.com/board/index.php?s...c=7677&st=0 Enough chat now, pictures say a thousand words... Photo taken by previous owner (Gish) after accident Photo's taken by me as work has commenced i…

NICE hey... I just couldn't let it be killed :bash: Now i need another storage shed :fuzz:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...TRK%3AMEWA%3AIT some rust, but the ke10 shell i have has PERFECT floors and rockers

I am looking for the man I brought this car off to ask some questions about the work done on the engine. I brought this car in 2010 from a man in Pimpama, QLD. The car had no plates and looked like it does in this picture. I am trying to find more information on what work they had done to the engine. Any help would be great. Cheers, Jamie

hey guys thought it was about time i got serious about a rides thread, seeings as there is alot of dollars going into this car i thought i should atleast boast about it a little :rolleyes: its kind of a long story, but basically i bought it at the very end of 2005/start of 2006, too long ago, off here as a cheap go fast car. picked it up for 1300 unregistered with the 1g, W57 and alfa diff all there. blue plated and LPG certed too... was under the impression it would need a set of turbos and a crossover pipe and it would go. upon getting it home, i realised just what a mess the whole bloody car was. that was it around the time it came home. it then…

hey all ive been lurking around this forum for quite some time but never really got involved, but now i think its time to show off my build and hopefully get positive feedback and some good suggestions well here its goes lol it started of as a learning build as a fun dangerous paddock basher!! i swapped the standard 4k with box for a vr buick v6 engine with a auto box and full loom first step was mounting the engine, solid mounts worked perfectly haha it sits a bit high but it worked well, cut the tunnel out, backyard shortned tailshaft and dogdy wiring and it was a awesome paddock basher, went through multiple sets of tyres :) but i wanted to get a b…

after dickin around with a vl turbo that i was gona use to tow my ca18 ae71 for the past few months iv decided its not worth it anymore and bought myself this new beast... gold ke70 sedan stock as a rock 4k auto with overrated interior. the paint isnt to bad and it has NO rust in guards but had rust in the bonnet and behind the rear wheels and along the body below the boot. this is how i bought it... so i figured seeing as the ca18 rolla wont be seeing the track til next year id rip out the suspension and fit it to the ke along with the wheels which JUST fit on the rear with a light guard roll... this weekend I'm fixing all the rust and then il get a roadwort…

Well well. Here she is. Its my parts car!! Will soon be re-in-CAR-nated. Our goal is to build the cheapest and nastiest AE71 ever. We have almost all the parts we need, excluding a drivers seat, Headers and Zorst. We will probably get it regoed and then just spend the weekends looking for paddocks to bash. :D **EDITED FEATURES** It features: - Bigport - Stainless 4 2 1 headers - JDM RWD Manifold - - AE71 Parts car - conversion gear source NO LONGER BEING REBUILT - Standard ECU and Beerhead loom - Interior full of beige, grandma was a smoker goodness. - Sick stock rims with bling factor silver paint. - Standard AE71 diff and custom suspensio…

hey all rolla fans, i hav a 1982 toyota corolla better knwn as a ke70, my plans with car hav changed alot over the past couples years owning it.... only after buying it did i know what people were using them for. At first i was goin for a cheap but powerful engine swap a ecotec 3.8 v6 manual was goin to power the little corolla. after doing research i saw alot of people were using 5k's and 4ages as quick and easy swap. i then bought my self a nice little bigport 4age with a t50. after a while of it sitting in the shed, i pulled it down and found it culd do with new pistons thats were i decided to go 7age with a little t25 for a little extra grunt. ive collec…

Hey, I've started accumulating the bits and pieces for my turbo 5K. The plan is to use my 5K block, bore it out 0.5 - 1.5mm. Use some 78 internal, 81 - 82 exteranl, cast steel sleeves in the bores. I scored 4 rb20det pistons with 80k on em for 20 bucks! So that should work nice with some brass inserts to connects the rods. The pistons are 3.2 mm shorter than a 5K unit so I'm gonna deck the block 1mm and shave the head 1mm too, and use a 1mm copper head gasket with a double O-ring. I'll reconfigure the head a bit too. It should be about 1.4 L and 7.5 - 7.8 : 1 compression ratio after that. I plan not to rev it too hard so I'm gonna stick with standard 5K rods…

Thought id post my ke up for good measure. I bought it Saturday from a fellow rollaclub member for a steal at $250. I managed to drive it from Brisbane to the Goldie with no troubles at all witch i was stoked about :D She cleaned up a treat and passed road worthy same day. Its running a stock standard 4k, 5 speed manual box and plush sheep skin seat covers ;). all runs well and will be done up slowly as the money dribbles in.

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…

Hey guys, it's been a few years since iv been on here. I sold my last ke70 about a year and a half ago and bought a r31 skyline. It was a great car but I got over the bigness of it and there's wasn't much else to do to it once I had finished with it. I sold it and started looking for a ke70. I was going to do a black top 4age conversion. I kept looking for sometime but couldn't find the right one, until a ae71 popped up. I went and had a look at it and was immaculate except for the rear guards and abit of rust around the boot seal. It had no rego and needed a blue slip. He wanted 2500 for it but got him down to $2100. I was pretty happy with the price concidering if I bou…

I found this old girl a few months ago but had troubles getting onto the owner. My other car, a RN85 Hilux with a 1JZ-GTE, has been giving me a lot of dramas this year, so there was always a little thought in the back of my mind about getting a reliable daily. I found this purely by accident as it wasn't advertised. It was sitting under some carports at work collecting dust and hadn't moved for ages when I parked next to it and noticed the for sale sign in the window. It's a KE35 Corolla coupe, 3K motor with a 4 speed manual and only 122000kms. It's currently unregistered but only needs a battery and 5 new tyres. The engine sounds great and has no oil leaks. The body is…

Howdies all, names David, nice to meet you. Recently got my hands on a KE70, it wasn't planned, more so a compulsive buy. The opportunity was sitting in a wreckers yard for the fine price of $500. It wasn't defected, and i have a sh*tload of time on my hands, so i figured why not. Bought it, trailered it home (no rego or plates) and its sitting in the backyard. Since then I have begun fixing the rust, and sanding her back for a respray, she's coming along nicely. Here's a few picies....

any ways i relise its no rolla but never fear i will still be hunting down a rolla its an 86 na hardtop MA70 with 230,000km and only cost $2000, bargan everything works, a/c, windows, mirros, power steering, cruze control and even the LSD seems alrite. its a bit ratty but with a bit of polish and clean up it will come up good i only have one pic taken on my crappy phone but will get later once its out of the shed and nice and shiny engine seems to be running pretty good but whats a fiew things i could do to get her going a bit better? i was thinking of taking off the intake manafold and cleaning it out and getting the injectors cleaned, any other ideas??…

82 ke70 life story: it cost me 2 cartons of beer and was sitting in a padoc for a year, it was previously used as a bush basher but they obviosuly didnt give it a reall hard time, it still had a radator full of fluid and sump full of oil. got it going for a while but the fule pump was rooted and the tank was full of rust anyway, so we found a mitsubishi magna with a in tank pump and straped the tank in the boot and hooked up the lines. then the next drama, the roof was wobbling like shit, so we put some strapping over top which didnt help. so in the end we just screwed the roof to the roll cage. the roof supports iscracked in places and still makes a *** loud ra…

What do you guys think? Edited: stoopid pics didnt work

Hey Guys, have been on this site for ages but lost my old login. Anyway, thought I'd might as well contribute and post up something about my Rollas. I had an AE82 twinky hatch for about 5 years as a daily. Loved it, but it was pretty rough. Look good from afar, but was far from good. Anyway, time came that I needed a new daily driver, and for cheap. I had intended on dragging the old twinky from mum and dads backyard. I figured that it would at least need 4 new tyres and 4 shocks. So I was up for at least a grand to get it back on the road. But then, searching gumtree I found another. Exactly the same model, but about 100,000 ks younger. Plus it had power-stee…

Madrolla is back on the streets of Perth :bash: Will be dynoing the car on saturday for a mild street tune (8Psi) cause thast all the clutch will hold ATM,i have ordered a Cushioned Button clutch for after i have run the engine in. don't expect any big numbers as i am only tuning AFR's for low boost and safe run in for now. Anyway i have taken video of it running so you can all see what it sounds like etc. :y: http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=GKKdXZizy3M Matt

Few videos from the first track day for the car after months waiting for a custom clutch to arrive,its here and it works real good. Also fitted a whieline swaybar which works good on the track also. Anyway few vids to watch,the first one the car stopped due to a loose connection on the fuel pump relay :locked: MAtt

Ok It is with a heavy heart that i show you what has happened to my KE10. :jamie: Was competing in a motorkhana today,first run after i tuned it again and had it all sorted out. And this is the end result,clipped a kirb in third gear and rolled it twice. So i am looking for another body. Few pics will put a vid up later MAtt

Hello there, I'm Yangzeen from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Here i want to share one of my KE70 Corolla Restoration Project. Before that, i just bought this KE70 from my uncle friend in Pahang, Malaysia with MYR2,000 and got some rusty. First of all, i sent this car to my friend paint and bodywork shop to start my project. During this project, some parts was arrived from Johore, Malaysia such as complete DX Chrome bumpers, new headlamp, tail lamp and some of exterior parts. The project begins. All exterior parts has been taken out such as windscreen, headlamp, grille, tail lamp n bumpers. New undercoat n paints have done now..

I am currently looking for a cast iron manifold for a Ae112r 2001 Sportivo Corolla Turbo. If anyone know where I could find one except from Toyota please advise. Any wreking of this vehicle anywhere??

Hi all i just thought i'd post up some pics of my cousin's car, 1972 KE20 with SR20DET. As you might have noticed we love Nissan engines in Toyota Corollas. This corolla has run best time of 11.9 114mph with standard T25 turbo, car is a big sleeper .

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…

So I've decided to start a new build thread for an AE71 Spirit I picked up for a measly $800. It was a fair travel to Taradale, 50kms South of Bendigo, thanks to Evan G for giving me a hand picking it up. She is red in colour, exterior is in alright condition has some rust in the usual places, righthand rear arch, and the boot. The paint could do with a cut and polish some minor paint damage on the front left gaurd, rust is starting to develop. Planning to just sand it back and give it a touch up so it's barely noticeable. Also the front stone tray has a fair amount of stone damage too, so I plan to pull the panel off and repaint it. The front bumper is a bit warped t…

Hi all, sold my charade a few months ago and bought this to run around on: Bug Agility 125 It was fantastic till the rains set in....then it was time to get another reliable daily... Ended up going with a TOYlet (1998 Toyota Starlet LiFE) Just got an alarm/central locking put in, will have tints next week, and that's where the mods end. This car is AWESOME! for a 1.3 it's heaps quick and extremely well built. would recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable an fuel efficient daily. Cheers, Mark

Hi guys just thought i'd put a post up about my corolla that i've had for about a month now just fixing little bits on it here and there. hope you like it? 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? Cheers :y:

Okay so I bought a 3.8 v6 with computer and loom for the rolla at the start of February. :dance: So plans for it so far are as follows: Probably a welded diff under it, until i find a reasonably cheap alternative. (won't be road registered) Seam weld areas under most stress. Might have a crack at making up some bracing for front end, behind front guards. Take interia out except for front seats until I get sone racing seats and harnesses. Most likely have to shorten the tailshaft. Things i have done so far: - Cut the mounts off Corolla cross member. - Taken exhaust manifolds off to be modified. - Cleaned engine, free of oil, grime, dust…

After having my ke70 sedan fail blue slip for 15 things, i gave the car to my dad and hes work mate, to make an electric car lol Got the car for $800 has 6 months rego 4 speed manual 124,000ks , better condition and drives alot better then my old ke only thing i hate is the leaf springs :(, so far put sportmaxx deep dish rims on it My friend put the skyline badge on the car for fun and i forgot to take it off Plans are: Fix the rust, really bad at the rear window 4age 16v or 20v whatever i can find, or sr20 maybe front coilovers sound system woooo! take the side stripes off, to me it looks heaps cleaner with no stripes new paintjob sorry if images…

Hey guys, I picked up this beast a few weeks ago, she's a 1973 Corona, 4 speed manual with the 12R motor. When I bought her she was similar to these pictures, the paintwork was pretty neglected and dull but has come up nearly perfect with some love, I have also smashed some Whitewalls on and have just bought a new grill today (not yet fitted). She has 108xxx miles on her and is all original apart from being lowered, perfect interior and a sweet little thing to cruise in. Toying with the idea of keeping her original or doing some kind of weber conversion etc on her - feel free to give me your opinions!! I'm on my iPhone at the moment, but will put up some more pict…

Hey, Mark here from NZ. I have a new project which i thought would interest some rolla people. A bit of back story... So i've had a ke70 1.3 SR coupe (jdm fastback 4k auto, 6" diff) since 2001 which was a daily + drift hack for many years running a 3tgte, w57 and kaaz 7.5" 2way in it's final guise (2013). Probably have seen that on the interwebs via club-k or garage3tc/3tcgarage and other forums or my website toycrazy.net and youtube user toycrazynz. It has succumbed to cancer finally because it wasn't always garaged (my bad). rust in the seams, sills, not alot holding the rear 1/4's and tail gate on. So I'm re shelling it. The last few years i've been busy wi…
