Rollaclub Rides

Hey guys, gals and in between. Been on here for a while now and only realised then that I didn't have a project thread so I thought it'd be time to make one. Also because I am bored. ;) Car started out as a bog stock 83 KE70 CS which I picked up for $500 complete with a lot of dings and original metallic paint which had lost all of its colour so was just basically metal. Nethertheless, it also had 6 months rego and was a good base to start with, as I was only on my L's then. All the work has been done by myself and my old man so he has saved me money and taught me alot about it. Being my only car, nothing to major is being carried out on it as I need to get to wo…

Just looking for a outside opinion of my Corolla?

1974 KE25 Corolla, 3K 1200cc engine, Toyoglide 2 speed auto transmission Original colour brown, now white. Rims Mazda 1982 steel 13 inch nice deep rim Rear bar from a KE20 same bar but KE20 brackets don't fit, i have the brackets in the back of the car somewhere. Brakes KE25 discs front with rebuilt KE30 calipers and rear standard Used the car for work for 2 years and has been sitting for the last 3 waiting for me to build a shed.

I bought this coupe AE70 in November 2007 for just over a grand. I have put a couple of pics up, keep in mind these are very old pics that I took in November '07 when I bought the car, and its not what it looks like at the moment. I'll get some fresh pics up soon. I actually have two of these, One of them ive been using as the donor car, which I have pinched a couple of panels and interior bits and peices from. It sat in the garage for about 8 months after I bought it (not running) So I started to get serious about it in July and I've slowly been working away at the panels since then. It's getting painted satin black, going for an old school rat rod sort …

Hi guys, I've had this for a while now and i thought it was about time i do some more work on it.. I originally had an immaculate T-18 which i only owned for 6 months due to my brother writing off! *Spewin* ;) I then bought this KE30 4door, it was rough as guts but after i lost my pride and joy i had no money, and as a struggling first year apprentice i had to make do.. I proceeded to pull out the engine and 5speed, seats and a few other bits and pieces from the T-18 before cutting the whole lot up with a 9inch angle grinder and taking the rest to the tip! I was surprised how easy it was to fit the 3T motor and box into the KE30 though. (i didn't know about r…

Hi everyone, just bought myself this nice little ke30, its got a 5k 5sp in it.

I"ll put some more pics up soon.

well iv already posted her up on other forums so I'm sure a few of you have seen it, anyway i thought id share it with the others who havent and see what they reacon, don't have many pics of it on my laptop so il give you the basic rundown of whats happend over the last 2 years since i got it.. bought the car as it looks in the first pic, running the mighty 3k and driving overrated, winter came round a couple months later and the damn thing wouldnt start so i decided to go injected, was ment to be a short and simple conversion but one thing led to another and well heres a rundown on whats been done: 16v 4agze smallport head/block>w55 celica box custom turbo ma…

As mentioned in my ke30 thread I bought this little beastie yesterday, had been sitting in a grandmas front lawn for 10 years untouched. We put a battery and some fuel in and it went second turn of the key, absolutely no brakes but that didn't stop us going for a drive out of the driveway and down the driveway to the shed and in for a bit of disassembly. Anyhow I have some before photos of as I found it and after a decent wash. Still running the factory 3k with k40, has some interesting trim my other ke20 L didn't have. Though the boot is not original the L badge may not mean anything after all. I tried bleeding the brakes and had no luck there is a break…

i had another rides and projects page but it was too many pages long and filled with mostly crap so i got the old one deleted so heres my 4agze going to be turbo this is the baby i'll be throwing on it the car out the back ATM because I’m striping a ae71 that had small front end damage parts will be for sale soon also i got a set of t18 drums to put on the t18 diff thats in the shed the insides are fairly tidy although my car is also my shed for inside car parts ahahah not the best insides but I don’t really care what it looks like just how it goes got a few ks on it but its the lowest one i've ever seen …

FIRST POST got this bluetop 4age powered seca with a green sticker on it (like a yellow sticker but from a dealership) and have plans to make it into a khannacross beast! not much wrong with it mechanically wise. still runs quite strong with 350 000 + kms on the clock, has a cracked windscreen and dodge paint (which came up suprisingly shinier after a buff with motor oil) so at the moment just weight stripping it, taking out the rear seats, rear trim etc. depending on how she goes prob put in a rollcage. hopefully this car should be really competitive. might be a bit tall in the gearing but oh well. not sure if we're taking the exhaust off yet... prob keep i…

Althoug not a Corolla but still a Toyota............... Bought not to long ago after some low life stole my car. I use to have a 1979 accord sedan!! This car was an absolute rust bucket and needed a lot of TLC but it started everyday!!! But some one stole it and wrecked it. I found her back on its side in a ditch totaly wrecked. They might have tried to exceed 70 km/h but with out shockies a car gets a bit waivery.... Any way we replaced her for the Sillyca!! We love it. We are 3rd owner and both former owners have baby-ed her very well. All is original and everything works perfect. We might have to change the front shockies as the car looses grip when cruizing above…

Hi everyone, Got over waiting for parts for the 30 so I thought I’d start a thread about my little project that I have had going for awhile. It started with a mate of my brothers getting rid of a 77’ 4 door KE30 and I needed something to spend my money on at the time so I bought it ready for me to start my first real engine conversion/project. Unfortunately I don’t have any picks of it as they were deleted off my old P.C but I’m sure you all know what they look like mine was white had black stockies and way too much rust to be a worth while project so I got rid of that and bought my current Rolla a 75’ 2 door I picked it up off a Rolla club member named bstjunkie f…

howz everyone going??? About a month ago i bought my first corolla, it's alittle less then average as i will describe to you. The biggest problem with it is the rust i have pictures and will post them. The couple of mechanical things wrong with it is the clutch slave cylinder, when it is cold in second it looks like i am bunny hopping but only alittle bit, because the clutch isn't engaging properly. I also just replaced the fuel tank the old one had a crack in it and petrol is to expensive to be droping on the ground everywhere. It also needs the timing done... Cosmeticly is an all new different ball park :lolcry:. The only bit of clear coat on the car is on the f…

Hey Guys and Gals, I've finally got a RWD Daily again.......and it's a 25 :lolcry: :y: She's got a few minor rust issues......but it is 37 years old so thats expected.

Okay. so i have a post here somewhere it is incredibly long and full of pointless ramble so i decided i would cut it all down to a short new one so people who havent seen it can just look here and have it all =] okay. so basically i ended up with this car because dad grabbed it up for his own use when his motor bike was stolen. then basically i bought it off him because he no longer had a use for it and i figured it was a good first car. when we got the car it looked pretty bad. the passenger side front quarter was black from when the previous owner ran into a pole and had to have it replaced. so we got out the old spray can and silvered it so that it wasnt as bad…

hey all, new to the forum here but i thought id show my corolla its a 74? I'm pretty sure.. its only done 96,000 kms on the original motor. tell me what you think

well for my birthday last year my dad got me a 1971 ke20 here are some pics of my first two stages of fixing it up i am 16 and hve done it all myself so far with a tad of help from my dad. the boot on it is screwed and all out of shape on the left when it was brought it has been reversed into a pole or something and had a huge dent in it. my dad got most of it out but its stil out of shape. does anyone know where i could maybe get a new one from.. preferably cheap. (: i am hoping the finished product will look something like this http://www.insightmotorsports.com.au/media/v/cust_cars/ke20/ especially with the interior would anyone know if it …

hey guys i just took pics of my newly purchased ke25 rolla... its full original, and was owned by an old lady. only has 79,000 miles. its absolutely immaculate, no rust what so ever, and the original paint is awesome...

So I see a few people were looking forward to a thread on my current daily. About a week ago, I saw that KE25 KID was selling his KE25 (complete with bent axle and buckled rim), so I snapped it up on the proviso that I could get the car running as it wasnt running at all. So I drove down to his place and proceeded to work through the mistakes that the 'mechanic' had done to get the car running again. First up, the car didnt run at all. Upon closer inspection the dizzy was wayyyyyyyyy out of alignment and a dodgy fix to the rotor button had been attempted. So I pulled out the dizzy, realigned the oil pump and with a couple of love taps from SST #1…

Gday everybody just letting you know i got yet another rolla this time somthing a bit different a ke20 that was advertised on here not that long ago anyway i picked it up today (thanks 71 ke20) managed to convince dad to let me put it in the shed so i can start work on it straight away.

Thought I might as well introduce myself on here with a members ride thread, have owned the car Since, December 07, and bought it like this, minus the sprayed black rims few pictures of the interior,exterior and engine few weeks after purchasing the car, blew the gasket on the so called "indestructable" 3tc motor. i thought it was cool to buy some rims and thrash the motor even more, i bought some 14x6 +15 or so challengers with tractor spec tyres finally blew it completely which means the 'ol girl was ready for a makeover, decided to go with JDM 4age 16V as it was in my budget and readily available. af…

After Selling my orange KE55 (stupid stupid me) i had been wanting to get myself anouther rolla for a bit of a project car. Mostly i wanted one so that i could have a go of building a tuff cammed motor by myself. Well I managed to get a 4K off the forum for $50 with a Ke70 4 Speed so all i needed was a shell to jam it into to get it running. Meanwhile one of the boys at work had bought a rusty Ke55 for a run around, in between decent cars, it got sold to one of the other workmates and now i have it. It has got so much rust over the rear wheel arches that i don't know what to do. Its a nasty yellow colour but it is running and it has a 5 speed (although it do…

What would you do with it?? I do not want to swap engines etc.........Its still for sale but if it doesnt sell soon I want to do it up. I am thinking of lowering it and put bigger wheels on it. What wheel might fit? With white walls of course. I love them!! I do not want to change to much as it is quite a rare car and I hate F&*%$ cars. I am thinking of putting a peroid right roof rack on top with an old long board or so Give me some ideas please............... Cheers Marjanne

Got me a poo-brown AE71. Story goes my mate Jonezee bought this off a Granny, got it defected, got lazy and sold it to me for $500 all canaried. Took a weeks worth of bringing it up to regency spec and it passed first shot, HYPED! All outta rego, I took it home, put it on jack stands and spent some money on it... Don't you just love the stock height... :teehee: So now, I await some parts and cash flow for rego but when everything comes together the spec list shall read: ## = On its way! Front End: - AE86 Struts - Cusco Strut Brace - KYB Excel G shocks - Rona XT130 LCA's - AE86 PS Arms - 7kg Springs ## - 40mm RCA's Back End: - KYB …

Went to the local council abandoned vehicle auctions the other day. It was raining fairly hard, and the auction itself is held outdoors, so only myself and two other people bothered to show up. (and they were more interested in an old tractor) Bonnet latch was stuck... council guys didn't even bother to pop it. Oh if they had.... Its a GA70 (import) converted to a twin turbo 1JZ... and manual. Nice set of 18's too. The bidding was intense... but I managed to buy it.... For $50. The opening bid. Unfortunately all the build and compliance plates have been flogged, so it'll never be registered again... :yes: So this thread will eventually…

Here is my new road car :lolcry: Seeings Butty put his coz on... I think mine is better one to talk about :yes:
