  1. this makes me wet
  2. haha i went through some corolla folders and just chose the tough looking ones. all ke20/25s and a 10 with flares. sorry ke70 owners :D
  3. and i imported one of these models from japan. i love it. the detail is incredible
  4. this is the ke20 in question
  5. with r31 lsd and tramp bars. with the 350kw rebuild, scott finally made the huge step of upgrading to ke30 brakes and now runs 14" torago steelies with dress rims and 165 tyres. i don't acutally know if that is scott's car, though i do have many pictures of it. you can see it regularly at willowbank
  6. even me :D
  7. they even turn corners! there's corolla inspiration for everyone here
  8. maybe you just want to use your supercharged lpg 5k for what it was made for
  9. if you're a kiwi, it doesn't matter what you own, as long as it's dumped on its arse with big wheels
  10. or maybe sleeper is more your style. 350rwkw 13b turbo anyone?
  11. his work here being done, grimas speeds off into the sunset
  12. grimas to the rescue
  13. ke30 has 3k, ke55 has 4k. and the associated emissions crap. ke55 radiator support panel is welded on, 30 is removable, which makes taking the engine out so much easier. 55 has intermittent wipers, more side intrusion crap in the doors, later 55s have a different dash. the tail light surrounds and quarter vents are plastic instead of metal, 55s usually have a borg warner diff, 30s usually have a jap diff. 55s usually have ke70 brakes, 30s have little jap things more similar to ke20. the 55 front apron has a small lip on the bottom of it, ke30 ones don't.

  15. irokin sayz: 9 out of 10 rollaclub mods suggest this is NSFW... because we all know camry drivers love things in their ass, why, just look at these two!!!
  16. hey look it's an oxymoron!
  17. www.tru-fit.com.au seriously though, they're not the best. can you get your original carpet and cut your own out of outdoor carpet? cheaper and will last longer
  18. the advantage of an automatic transmission (in a drag racing application) is the ability to change the characteristics of the stall converter. accompany this with a transbrake and you can keep trying different setups until you get the perfect launch the quickshift is helpful, but secondary to the above the guy from sub zero on the goldcoast has a drag gtr skyline with a 2 speed powerglide in it. still attessa awd system as well
  19. those don't look like any corolla output shaft or gear shifter retainer i've seen. is it cable or hydro? give it a clean with degreaser and a hand wire brush and see of there's any markings on it, every corolla gearbox i've seen has the japanese "TEP" on it somewhere i have the same ratchet handle as you :D
  20. yes it is :D make sure you have $200 for a logitech driving force, i can't even imagine how much the df pro is. nothing wrong with dualshock 2. some of the really good drifters on gtplanet even use the D-pad still!!!
  21. apparently registering something as an ICV isn't as hard as people go on about. a mate of a mate got a v8 gemini registered last year. if your heart was set on it, you'd look into it. but there are better easier ways to run 9s
  22. exactly. this statement is the basis of most ae86 fandom. an unbalanced unrealistic pretend cartoon. i rest my case
  23. hold on, you can swap ae86 hubs onto ke corolla struts with ke bearings? really!?
  24. siamese ports generally aren't a good idea, i think you'd slow down airflow and create too much reverse flow (heads do flow in reverse too) for it to have any decent real world application. look up anything about minis or early holden sixes, with siamese ports, they suck direct head injection (like a gze?) is a good idea for economy and atomisation, but you can get more power by boxing the whole intake and mounting the injectors spraying straight into a dcoe-style throttle body, before the butterflies, strange but true if you were to spend the money on a piece of alloy to make your own K head, the billet chunk would cost more than an entire 4age motor. and you wouldn't make a head anything like a 4k head, you'd make a twincam crossflow 16v/20v head with inserts for the combustion chamber. i remember reading about one like this on a drag bike, the head cost about 40 grand unless you have the bits laying around and can do it all yourself, a K motor is just not worth this much effort
