Hey guys, thought id share with you a project I've been working on for the past 3 years. It all started when i turned 14. All i focused on at that point was that i could get my driving license in less than one year. So at the time my old man thought it'd be a good idea for me to get my first car and do it up a little in time to get my learners. And also get to know further about cars etc. So i hoped on trade me and started my quest for my first car. I looked at multiple options as my first car starting at honda civic's (yes i know, wtf was i thinking???) right through to Subaru impreza's. After not having much luck in finding a cheapy, as only having an after school job…

For those of you that don't know me personally I not so long ago picked up a cheap ae92 (or Holden nova) as a daily for my partner but after some discussion we decided that we would wait to get something abit newer so after trying to sell it with no luck and my ke70 track car being nowhere near completed I decided to turn it into a budget circuit racer to keep me amused till my ke70 was done and then pass it on to my partner to get her out on the track.. It was quite sad and run down with 300,000+ kms on the clock filthy interior stocko 13" steelies and more water leaks than a sivve.. So after replacing the water pump, welch plugs, hoses and a badly corroded thermostat ho…

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})

Right so my Sprinter needs some paint and panel to get it up to where I would like it. I have spent far too much on the running gear for it to be sitting in the shed while I get that sorted. I have been looking for a neat AE71/KE70 to put the running gear into. I have had a couple of close ones where I was just a little too slow with the coin but maybe it is all for the best. Picked this up during the week, local car with only 141,000km. Little bit of surface rust in a couple of places but the normal spots that are bad for rust in these are clear. Will have to track down a cross member and pedal box but other than that I it should be a goer. I gave it a wash and a…

Had the car nearly 5 years and it wasn't 'till this year when the cv's needed replacing that I bothered to do anything with it. Replaced the green/blue/gray(what colour is it!?) original dash top with a black one from a POS seca I bought for the factory alloys 'cause there was five of them. Changed the gauge faces and added a clock. The rear window wiper wasn't working so I shaved the back. I've tried a couple of different front bumpers, still not quite happy yet... In the near future I'll put in a 7AFE bottom end bored out a bit with a new exhaust, shave the vents on the c pillar and lower it a bit. Eventually I'll have to do better than a "20 ft pai…

Hello, This a rare model in France and maybe in some others countries in Europe or worldwide. My ride was first bought in Swiss in 1977 by a lady who live there in Valais county. Then she moved to south of France area in 1980. The car is powered by the 3kh engine, manual stick with 4 speed. It's full option (vinyl roof, alloy rims for example) and was not sold in France with those equipment, even if the appellation the same, some details are not. I found it on Le Bon Coin website (Craig list like for France) and was sold € 2000,00 ( US $ 1700,00 approx.) I came from Paris to south by train and drive back home on 1st December 2012. Weather was windy in south area an…

Hey guys! been on the forum for a while lurking for one, but as luck turns out my mate had one sitting in his front yard collecting rust, so after consulting the parents i got the beast! absolutely full of rust, but trying to fix it bit for bit as a PROJECT car. cost me a full $0.00 so hey, can't complain. but this is it 1984 ke70 sedan Auto :( not for long! Began pulling interior out to freshen it up and this is my daily, 2002 mazda 323 astina. this thing was stock, now none of it is what actually came on the car. but all genuine mazda parts both USDM and JDM Plans for the KE are get the rust fixed and on the road -manual conversio…

Introducing my latest Corolla This thing popped up on Gumtree one day so I had to go and look. Rest is history. Specs are as follows: KE30 Sedan 4AGZE from an AE92 T50 Welded Borgy Diff Cressida Front Struts and Brakes Stripped Interior, with some switchgear, push button start and gauges Ebay special fixed back seat Velo Harness 15 x 6 Poobird wheels with Achilles 123 semis Couple of pics from before track day Had my first track day at Mallala Friday 16th August. A week before I decided to dust off the cobwebs, check over the car, pump up the tyres and fill with fresh fuel. Car won’t start. Try all sorts of things, find faulty e…

We decided to buy yet another 82, this one being very very tidy for its age. The rundown: 85 model CSX. Auto, air, steer. 237000ks. Engine rebuilt at 18****ks - 10 years ago. Very clean interior. New suspension. New cv shafts. New rear muffler. New starter. New rear wheel cylinders etc. I got it with a blown head gasket and found that the cause is a corroded head that overlapped the firing ring on the cylinder, I have another head here at work so it will be cleaned up and put on. The pistons are .5 (.020) oversize and the bores and exceptional.

whats up everybody...the names harris...I'm from ireland originally but I'm living in perth over 3 yrs now! just picked up this 86 3 weeks ago...this is where she stands now...she needs a bit of work to get her up to my standard!! if anyone around WA wants to meet up be sure to hit me up

Hey everyone, just wanna share some pics of my rolla from when I got it, to how it is now. Picked it up as a rolling shell for a pretty penny with intentions to slowly make it nice. How it looked when I saw it for the first time in the person I bought it off's backyard Interior looked nice and neat- no cracks in the dash or rips in the seats, all nice and original This is the day I picked it up Having no motor in it made it a bit easier to take off the trailer on my own!

hi all, just pick up my new ke20. just sold the first one i had as it was a one owner car and wayyy to clean to cut up. here is the thing i love ke20's and love rotaries so I'm going to combined the two together to build my dream car. i have spoken to a number of people who engineer cars and they are happy to pass the car with a 12a turbo set up as long as the brakes/suspension and a few other safety requirements are met. i do want a street car but something that i can race as well. apart from free riding riding stand up jet skis professionally i really enjoy a good night at the drags. i will keep you all posted with pics threw out the build but here is t…

Hi to all This is my first time here and new to any site. I have been looking online, and this is the first site to find anything similar to my car. It has a 4efte engine,98 I think and runs ok. Does anyone know about parts for this model?

I took these photos on the streets of Thailand in 2011 with the intent to post em on Rollaclub. This station wagon was sitting 10 metres from the Thai/Burmese border so I couldn't get any more photo's. Military dudes with guns kinda freaked me out. Never seen one of these before and wouldnt know what model it is. KE70 with a differant front end? Shame I could photograph the back end. I'm not a fan of Datto's but this one was pretty cool looking. Was in very good condition inside and out . Photo didnt do it justice with all the shit that had fallen on it fallen from the tree it was sitting under. …

Hi guys and gals, I would like to introduce you to Betsy, a 1975 KE30 4 door with no working engine. I purchased her on the 15.08.13. She looked rather straight and upon inspection I could not find any significant rust spots so I organised for the sellers dad (a tow truck driver) to drop her off at my door and handed over the money. I will be updating this post as often as I can, but unfortunately I have a new house and a lot of other jobs to deal with so just gotta remember "SLOW AND STEADY WINS THE RACE" (but I just want her done NOW). The plans are to strip her down repair any rust found, paint, full interior, and then drop a SR20DET into her with a R31 cut…

Hi I'm Ricky and I'm 14 and this is my Ke36. there is abit of rust and dents, thinking about respraying it white

hey guys here is my thread for my new car. picked up this ae93 sx seca last week as a replacement for the ae82. its fairly standard with the only mods being extractors, 2" exhaust, low king springs and tinted windows. also has a decent headunit and better speakers inside. don't really have any plans for it other than wheels and a front lip but lets see how long that lasts haha. here are a few bad pics of it.

Hey guys, I'm new here and just purchased myself some form of Corolla. I'm under the impression that it is a KE30, 1977? I've tried googling but cannot seem to pin-point the exact year/make. Any help is greatly appreciated!

I thought it was about time I posted SOMETHING about my cars on here. I have a 1977 4 door KE30, a 1974 (?) 2 door KE30, and another 4 door KE30 for parts, I think from memory it's a '77, plus I have a stock pile of 4k engine parts and interior parts which I will be putting on here after I have what I need for my builds. The original plan was for the yellow 4 door to be my project car as I had one years ago with a 2TG conversion which I stupidly sold, and needed something to fill my void! But came across the 2 door and the white 4 door plus all parts. I will post some pictures (by some I mean lots) and write my plans along the way. This will eventually be a build thread w…

Hi guys I'm Luke from Malta, new member on this site so Hello to all of you ;-) Recently i have purchased a corolla ke25 coupe sl (the on in the picture) To be honest i don't know a lot about them but my plan is to keep the car interior as original as possible, exterior lowered and rims and swap the engine.My play is to put a 3sgte motor gearbox and diff but up now i haven't thought about them to. Can some one send some pics of any interior of this model or some photos so i can have more ideas. Thanks.

Hello All, hailing from Vancouver BC, CANADA Will be purchasing a ke70 + gts parts car. Hopefull somewhere along the line i can harass some of you mates. Looking for t18 bumpers will pay shipping rather pay you blokes than over priced for a phillipino rip off!

Not posting to show off, but posting to share. Recently had the great opportunity to purchase this car with less than 22k original miles. Still has the 1975 registration year decal on the plate, which I've since moved and covered in the front, to allow me to place the new registration decal on the rear plate. Also, comes with original tools, tool pouch, jack, jack tools, and best of all...the owner's manual! LOL Comes stock as stock can be, down to the original unblemished hubcaps. All opinions are welcomed, but please be kind and keep any hate/negative comments to a minimal. Thank you! Now on to the pics.....and my apologies if they come out too big. I'm an old guy who'…

Hey guys I'm new here but not to the world of old toyota cars and trucks.My name is Nick and I'm a disabled and retired US Army Scout. I'm married and have a 2 year old son who shares my passion for cars and motorcycles. Ive owned several 4th gen celicas a few mr2s a 89 Camry with a 3sgte swap and a 1979 Celica Supra thats loaded and in amazing shape and a 2010 Corolla S that my wife drives. My daily driver is a 1988 Celica GT4 with 72,XXX mile, its my baby and will most likely be with me till the day i die. I'm in the process of building a 1979 Corolla SR5 Liftback (TE51) that i call Gary lol. The car is in pretty good shape, i am the 3rd owner. The 1st owner was a littl…

So since my JZX100 is still waiting on panels from Japan I snapped up this KE70 thats registered until next year. 4K-C with Aircon 5 Speed Manual Rust in boot lip, corners and a bit around front window. (Really shitty bog attempt made) Plan will be to daily the hell out of this until the Mark II is on the road and upgraded. After that will be dropping a 20V 4AGE into the car because being in Darwin, Don't need engineering to do it :D (As far as I'm aware). Soon incoming is new interior, mirrors and sound system. Also spraying some black around the windows because I want to. Good thing about not caring about the condition at the moment is I can entertain m…

I picked up a 1974 TE-27. I was searching for a first gen celica and missed out on a crazy good deal for a 76, but I am glad I did because I found this one. Some people call these mangos. The guy was super cool about selling me the car. He wouldn't sell the car to anyone. He told me how he denied the sale to other people that were not Toyota or JC enthusiast. Its an auto. 2tc. 4:10 diff. I will have to do some rust repair in the front due to the battery leaking, and a some minimal rust spots around the car. It runs, but needs fuel system cleaned. Needs brake work etc. etc. Its a project. Pics! enjoy:

At long last I finally have myself a new toy to play with. 1984 AE71 factory manual wagon 104 xxx on the clock fairly clean Mods are: AE86 front struts with JDM brakes XYZ coilover kit front lip (mk 1 golf) granny visor (genuine) fender mirrors (genuine) flared guards Gemini front bar 16 x 8 steelies Currently really don't enjoy driving it. The rear leaf spring are soo stiff it feels like the tailgate is going to fall off The valve stem seals are leaking so bad it acts like a squid on defense after every traffic light stop. Really don't like the overly done guard flaring job. So when I get the time to fix these is…

A friend and I went for a look at a guys farm today who had 90+ cars laying in a paddock, we went armed with cash and a car trailor intending on bringing my mate home a valiant, instead I got this. The wheels were on a liteace van nearby (unfortunately the liteace only had a 4k or I would have bought that home too...) Guy wanted $300 for the car with stock wheels, but ended up shakinghands on $250 with the mags that had brand new tyres and we were on our way. When we were looking at it I am looking and thinking "parts car", but it has a lot going for it, apart from a cracked dash the seats are great, door cards overrated, minimal rust in all the usual places, …

Hey all, Just joined up and thought I'd share my first car (and project, for that matter :P ) She's an '82 flat front wagon, bright yellow with a terrible black hood (last owner did it, there's remains of a giant CAT sticker to...), came on stock wheels but swapped them for some cheap Meshies as soon as the car was home. I know little about the history of the car or how the SR ended up in it but it's all good and runs sweet, gave it a change of fluids and it purs like a kitten. Stupidly quick for what it is but the welded diff makes people look at me funny when I'm in car parks.. haha. Anyway here's a few pics, check back now and then for updates I have plans t…

Hi, i'm Jurgen, from Belgium. Here some pics from my cars. KE10, this was my first Toyota,own this car for 25 years. TA22, i use this for regularity and demo rally's, mostly sideways ... TE27, A friend imported this car from California to me. SW20 Yaris T sport, my wife's car Lexus ISf, my daily

Hey all Many of you already know me from my previous Ghetto Sled Ke70 and everything inbetween. I'm happy I'm back in a ke70 corolla and always told myself I would only come back in a wagon/van, well this weekend I finally found a decent one to restore with minimal rust as it was a car from inland. Reason for buying this as I want a cool project for summer (get me away from gta5) and my E30 chews fuel going from work and back . Style I'm going for is the old school 80's but with some touring car features as I will be doing 2-3 hour trips to race my kart around W.A. Things I'm chasing -Quads light and grill -Work Equips Mk1 -Chrome F…

hey guys I'm new to these forums and I just bought my new project ke38 corolla. Plan is to fit my 2jz, powerglide and 42gtx into it. Was a zoom feature car in 2011 with a rotary in it. the engine bay shot is the current combo in my Cressida that is going into the ke38 :)

hay guys. a lot of you will recognise this pano that simo was building. i finally got it delivered and started we he left. I'm still going the 13b turbo set up with a 5 speed as i love my rotaries and ke's i understood the cvar was sitting in primer for quiet sometime so i went over alooottttt of the body work over the weekend. bringing and welding a few bits and pieces to make it perfect. i also cut out the rear panels to fit windows. some of you will like it some will hate it. anyway just a quick up date to tell you this project has come back to life and i will be finishing it 100%

Hey guys and gals so it seems i have found myself another rolla :) its a 1979 ke55 cs sedan which has been sitting in a hay shed for the last 12-18 months as the owners had no use for it. Its a 4 speed manual and stock as a rock right down to the factory philips tape deck, owners manuals and service manuals, even the original number plates from 1979 :) plans are pretty much tidy it up and keep it as a daily driver so far. The head is away getting machined at rhe moment as it had a blown head gasket, but here are a few photos as it was when i picked it up
