uh by the way medicine_man.. how do you get your bumpers to shine like that?. :) ... any secret or they are simply new...?

hmm.. the engine looks dirty but it is not as bad as it looks. :) . my brother takes the car to his construction site everyday so i guess the polishing thingy can wait. The engine was overhauled (rebuilt) last year. Carburetor, master pump cylinder, clutch plate and starter are new. When I bought the car, it acted kinda funny because the engine just stalled when i press the clutch (while the car was running) and the engine started again when the clutch was released(in gear while the car was running). it was the carburetor and it had to be replaced. curent issues .. 1. well the headlights are dim. Someone told me it can be fixed by adding a relay. but i noticed the reflector has worn out. i dunno maybe a relay will help. i certainly do not want to change the whole thing(headlights). 2. for a 1.3 engine.. i feel the fuel enomony isn't that great.. about 20mpg (city) maybe less. i was thinking of adding fuel optimizer. have you guys heard about it?

whoppsie.. i should have mentioned I'm from Malaysia. sorry but i just noticed that you guys are mainly from Australia! .. anyway i just got the picture Its a KE70 alright.. :D.. KE70R ? hmm only if i knew where to look.. :) hmm the wheels .. 14X7 its used ... found it in a used parts shop. the tyres.. unbranded (cheap). i am relatively new to cars. As for now my plan is for the rolla to be a feel good.. looks good and comfortable (quote) "cheap runaround" car. oh by the way.. err. is it okay for me to stick around with rollaclub? :sad:

slanted headlight? you mean the one like medicine_man yellow rolla? Nope. :D i have not changed anything except the wheels. About the headlights, KE70 that i usually found in the internet, are squares. like this one below http://www.rollaclub.com/gallery/public_upload/Was.JPG mine is rectangular. thats y can't decide what model it is bcoz no pictures (with info) to refer to. :) anyway.. thanks for the feed back :blinks:. the car isn't home yet. i'll let you guys know what is written on the chasisi plate.

hi all nice to find some friends in here :). i bought the car 2 years ago. need help to identify the model.i dunno if it is a KE70 or 71 or .... i just dunno. hope you guys can help out :D. its a 1982 corolla GL 1.3 5 speed manual RWD.
