Rollaclub Rides

someone butchered this ke25 to make a convertible.. mod plated and all.. I'm going to slowly restore it (keeping it convertible)

I found this literally out side a barn and it didn't run so we got it started one thing led to another now we are here :) thats my dad lol :P we've been taking bets on how long it'll last!

Here is the new and improved ke30. In malaysia so getting others to work on it is cheap! Don't hate me..... It already had a 4age in with all the running gear from an AE86 ('89). Bargain it was! Now all i need is to sort the idle hunting and find the nearest track.. Ready to start: Tinkering and engine issues more rust Spray prep Sprayed! Lovin' the badge Mirrors on... Any comments greatly recieved. thanks Rolla club. Anyone got a glovebox mechanism?

Hi All, I've been a member for a while - initially I signed up to buy a KE35 for my girlfriend, but having it sitting in the driveway and puttering around on weekends inspired me to upgrade. So on Saturday I pick up my first Corolla - a 1974 KE20 that's been in one family since new. It's currently unregistered, but after a bit of a once-over I'm hoping to get it registered on Saturday and drive it home. Immediate plans are: Rego Replace the massive racing seats with original seats (have to source some!) Attach the granny visor Replace lap sash belts with retractables Brakes - maybe AE86 strut/brake combo Down the track I might look at a 4AGE swap, but …

Hi Everyone. Having had a long standing love affair with the old rotary motor, combined with a love of the early sedans of my time, this is my first project that i actually look like having the money to complete from start to finish. Crazy. Started with seeing an add on g-tree for a ke30 sedan that looked kinda neat. Rang the owner and he was super nice, and being about a 3 hour drive from my place, a mate and i decided to make it into an overnight trip as a bit of a getaway as well. Fell in love with it at first sight, and was convinced there and then that this is the car for me. Completely stock as a rock, with a few little patches of rust, but nothing that …

Hey guys recently bought my third rona! I paid 200dollers for it body is super straight no filler in her at all!

Got married on the 22nd Feb and my bride arrived in my KE35 SR Coupe Some of the bridesmaids arrived in my mates DX/KE70 A wedding with some quality old toyotas!

So I'm new here and just thought I would share my ride.

Hey everyone, I am currently 16 in Australia and own a 1991 AE94 corolla. It has a 4A-FE motor and I was wondering what mods I could do to it to make it run better. Don't have much cash so preferably cheapish mods. Cheers

Hi all, Just hopped on cos I've picked up a 25 and wanted to sus the for sale for some bits and thought I'd share my panno (now wagon) with its new paint scheme. The rest is the same as it used to be when it was all white, I've just drawn up a 70s inspired "race" theme paint job, rubbed her down, repaired some dents, and spent a day masking and painting and then cleared over the lot. Then I had the sign writing hand painted on too - hope youse like it. I love it.

Hay guys just picked up my new ke20. I didn't have the heart to cut up my wagon so I bought this. It's still a one owner car. It's pretty clean with 64000kms on the clock. Plans are either 13bt or sr20det. Still working out a few things but the aim of the build is a super clean street car. I am pulling the 3k out this weekend with the auto if anyone would like it come take it for free. I already have a set of coil overs for it, hopper stopper front brakes with ford 5 stud pattern, a Hilux diff and a 13b fitting kit that my good mate fabed up. First thing on the to do list is the trans tunnel, bigger inner wheel guards and I want to cut out and remove the spare wheel tub f…

Hey peps I've been building my ke70 for almost a year now & like most builds has snowballed out of control. It started life as a pretty nice clean little ke70 that I brought to put all my old ae86 parts that I took of Tha car after a truck that was behind me didn't want to stop at a red light ( & no I didn't pull in front & slam my brakes on he just had a fat foot & hit Tha go & stop peddle at Tha same time) & give it some paint & sell it but soon I thought nah il keep it. It all started with a set of FAT 15x10 inch rims then I had to flair Tha he'll outta Tha guards to make them fit then I sold Tha ae86 suspension & got hold of some coil o…

Hi guys, I'm looking for a bit of guidance more than anything from some of you that have been there and done it all in the Corolla scene. I'm new to Oz and old school Japanese motors, we don't get too many back home. I've set my sights on a Corolla from Circa 75-80 but don't know too much about what I should be looking for in terms of the usual mechanical issues and rust spots etc....any help here would be great. I'm also interested to know what models other people prefer, for whatever reason, handling, ease of engine conversion etc etc. At the moment I'm looking at two sedans a 77' KE30 and an 80' KE55 - with any luck I'll be the proud of my own 'roll…

Hi guys :) new here.. my first car was given to me by my brother, it is owned by our father before.. here are some pics.. hope you like it :thumbsup:

My 1981 te72 Toyota corolla coupe with one weber carber and running a draw threw turbo set up United States spec

Well seeing as how I'm not the kinda guy that is used to posting online on forums I'm not sure how this build thread will turn out i will try and keep it short and simple. i like looking through other peoples so i thought id contribute Car: Ke70 Year: 1984 Originally yellow When i bought it, No rego, welded diff, bald rear tyres, 430,000ks, speedo didnt work, was miss match matte black had 14" cheviots on the front sprayed orange the motor wasnt idling properly the timing was out it had some rust and dents, one fender mirror, drivers side bucket seat would retract on you and slide backwards, along with no carpet a gay steering wheel, a broken rear exhaust bracket. …

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…

Hey, i'm Jeff I thought I had better try and write a build thread seeing as I spend so much time rambling about toyotas with corolla guys... if you want to see more up to date progress and pictures then check out my pagey businessy thingo i have on facebook... KE-86 https://www.facebook.com/ke86corolla i named it ke-86 because this ke10 uses ALOT of different parts and i like toyotas ke's to 86's... this thread is super out of date and alot has changed so bare with me... ill try and update it regularly Probably long winded and boring.. But it’s just as much for my reference as yours, any questions just ask.. I am just over 2 years into this build.. it is …

So I thought it was about time I jumped on here and shared my car...I bought it in mid 2012,put it straight into storage and its been sitting covered in dust since..needed a bit of work and kind of got side tracked.. yeah crazy I know.. :) So think its time to fix her up bit and enjoy her.

Hey this is my ae71 wagon running a bluetop 4age out of a mr2 I bought it two weeks ago and have not done anything with it yet. I am going to take her off the road in about 2 or 3 months when I have the funds together to do a complete rebuild. Plan of attack - -Suspension and brakes -Pull out the engine fit 7ate block and ITB's (give me some feed back) -Flat front it -interior and exterior face lift

Hey all, Thought i'd share my little project. its a 1990 model AE92 corolla CSX, which i've removed the Carby related side of the model which would mean its an SX model in theory hahaha I've always dream't of a Corolla SX Sedan, i've had a liftback in the past but really wanted to try make something fun out of a Sedan model and heres what I got to: 1990 Toyota Corolla Motor/Transmission - 4AGE 16V Smallport Motor - C56 Short Ratio 20V Gearbox - Corolla SX EFI Fuel Tank Conversion - 4-2-1 Hurricane Extractors Interior/Body - AE92 Levin Seats - AE101 Gear Shifter - AE101 Gear Knob - 90s Mazda 626 Front lip - Corolla SX Rear Seats - Corolla SX Dash…

I am looking for a ke25 coupe

Originally posted 8 Dec 2013 on Calaisturbo.com.au - Hi guys, I've crossed over and i'm batting for an overseas manufacturer. I've just purchased a 1973 Corona Sedan yesterday (7.12.13) for those interested in the story read on, for those interested in the car skip to the photos! The inspiration struck one Friday night (22.11.13) when dad and i were sitting around and he asked me if i'd seen the shannons auction listing. essentially there was a datsun 1200 wagon for sale. i started thinking and went and looked and even made a bid on the 2nd of dec. i didn't win and was a bit dissapointed / all riled up to own a japanese classic. Through the week i wa…

Hello everyone! So I'm still new here so trying to get used to this forum system. First I wan't to say that sometimes my English can be hard to understand, but hope you'll get hang of it ;) To the car itself. I got two Corollas (Ke10 and Ke11) about half a year ago from my girlfriends dad as he needed more space in to his shed and didn't have time for building these. The ke11 was just rust, but it did have a good 3K and 4-Speed, So i took the engine and gearbox out and rest of the car got crushed. The ke10 was in decent condition: not too much rust, it has all the parts and extra from the ke11. The stock K- engine of it was just bad so i'll be putting the 3K in t…

hey guys I'm looking for any one with a corolla rwd thats decent looking for my wedding any helps appreciated we are willing to pay its from Gleneagle near jimboomba to woodridge on the 1st of feb

Well since I've had the Ke25 for over 4 years now, it was about time I started working on it!! I wanted a Ke25 for a while - one of the guys I worked with at Meridian had a rather modified one. He left & went back to boat building. When I rang him up on the off chance he might want to sell it, he told me he had (just) sold it to someone else I knew, as spares for his race car. No point in pursuing it further so I started looking elsewhere. At the time I was building up Harvie's ke15 (http://www.rollaclub...-ke15-build-up/ One day just prior to Xmas (about 4 years ago ironically) I get a phone call from him. Conversation went something like this: Him - "Guess w…

Hey all, Long time no post, but I'm back in a rolla after about 2 years on the dark-side. I recently purchased a KE70 as a slow project for myself and brother / weekend car for myself. Breakdown: 1984 slant front Toyota White recent home spray job ( Pretty good job) 5 speed 300k's sloppy diff Shot carby interior not in the best shape Not drivable in current condition Reasonable price The Plan: Fix it up nice and cleanly. Some nice wheels, Suspension and brakes. RWC then Rego! Not keen on going way over the top like my last rolla. I know next to nothing about the xE7x's as I'm more of a 55 man so ill be asking questions!

Hey all.....here in cali just getting back into a '74 SR5 resto. car has been in my garage for 4 years and now I am way back into the project......just testing to see if I can get photo loaded. Working with grant in NZ to fabricate new skins for my wasted seats. Anyway, if I can get this posted, I will add more as things progress. http://s1346.photobucket.com/user/sweave65/media/0e940f64-17d7-45da-9b78-49056db11085_zpse4959ccd.jpg.html?sort=3&o=7

Bought this about 2 months ago, gave wash and wax today. Took some photos thought i will share them with you guys. It was a 1 owner, 180,000 kms on the clock no rust,drives so tight. I think its a nice find. And a couple of pics of my ke20.

Hay guys just got my new 26 wagon. It's a one owner log book car with a genuine 37000kms on the clock. It's completely standard with near perfect paint and interior. The only two things the old fella changed were the hub caps and steering wheel (wich are genuine Celica) I will be parting with these if anyone is interested. Plans for the wagon are to leave the paint and interior as is. I was going to do a rotary but we already have one of these going around so I will be building a fj20 with a manual for it. Keep you all posted with pics threw out. I hope you enjoy.

Hey guys and girls I'm new to the Rollaclub forum and also to the Corolla scene, although very much a Toyota fan boy. I've spent most of my free time modifying my 4WDs the last couple of years but I decided it was time for a new project, a Khanacross Corolla. The goal is to just have something to work on and have some fun at the local rally club, plus it seems like Khanacross is a good entry point to get into motorsport. I was pretty set on finding an AE92 and building a 4AGE engine but as it happens I ended up coming across an AE101 for $300. It's got a bit of faded paint, a dent in the rear bumper and no rego but it still runs fine and is a surprisingly neat car fo…

Hey all. Just purchased a 1991 ae92 in amazing condition, 120 xxx km's, efi. Picked it up for 1k. I previously owned a 94 seca but sadly got rid of it due to work and lifestyle. The first things I will be getting done in this project is sorting suspension and getting some new shoes.

so, this is my new project that I'm picking up this weekend, as you can see its not the prettiest thing around. it has alot of rust, i mean A LOT! still havent seen it in person but who is gonna complain when its this cheap... it has a 4ac in it at the moment and no gearbox or interior, hopefully be able to build it into something fun, and not spend too much money! sorry about the shitty pic, its all i have got that shows the good side...

Hey Rollaclub! Here's another project I have bitten off. While looking for a coupe I came across this buff coloured sedan on eBay. Of course the nature of eBay is that sometimes you bid and end up owning things you didn't intend to. I really wanted a coupe! This is a relatively low mileage sadan (167,000km) that IMO just needed some loving. The previous owner fitted a new clutch and rear main seal, then got bored of it before he put it back together. As such, some assembly was required before I even knew it would run. But run it does, very nicely thankyou. Here's when I got it; I started tinkering. It really just needs a 30 year service! So I pu…

Hey Rollaclub, I've been posting here for a while now - lurking even longer - and figured it was about time I shared some details of my current projects, being a silver KE55 XX coupe and a buff KE55 sedan. First the coupe... I first owned a yellow KE35 when I was 16 in 1989. It's my profile pic. After a couple of years I had thoroughly trashed it, so traded "up" to a VK Commodore, then an XF Falcon, then a ZA Fairlane before picking up another bright brown KE35 around 1997 for $800. I drove that 35 around for 6 years before blowing a head gasket. At which point I bombed it up with a 5K, extractors, paint & interior and polished XX alloys, the…

so this is my newly aquired ke70 four speed manual 4k-c engined shitbox. i say rolling relic because besides the rust repairs it needs which involves the two spaces above the taillights and a small patch in the roof. when thats fixed and ground down and undercoated. the paint will be left the same, the spotlights will remain. the interior is staying as it is. it will eventually have a worked 4k and hopefully go sideways on demand but i don't want to roll the guards or anything i just want to keep the old school patina and slam it on some black widened stockies. oh and theres abit of rust in the fuel filler cap but an easy fix. the wheel arches seem to b…

Hey guys, new to the forum and just bought a ke55, always loved the rollas and finally got my hands on one :) No idea where to begin, has had custom paint job, Has a 5k and a 5 speed gearbox. so much i want to do with it already and only had it a few days :) Any suggestions on where to begin would be great. cheers
