Rollin-Rolla

its all good, i went to u pull it today and got the rails no cutting required unless you use the ae71 style seats where the sliding lever is at the front. then cutting is needed but if you use the side style slider then they unbold easy. just for future reference if someone comes across the same problem

hey mate, cheers for advice. i was thinking the same thing myself. can you post up a pic of how it turned out? my only concern about doing that is the height? did your bucket seat sit fairly high after that? also did you have to cut the rails off of the old seat? cause i know on bluebirds there rails are integrated into the chairs, they don't bolt on the way bucket seats do. both my chairs in the rolla arent here i got rid of them due there crappyness. hope you can give me some more help.

ive got a recaro bucket seat to install into my ke70, wondering if anyone else has done a similar install into a ke70? how did you go about a seat rail? from what ive found AE86 seat rails are slightly to wide, by about 20mm. if someone has done a bucket seat into a ke70 please provide some info for me, as i want to know the easiest way to go about it. going with a universal rail will be a bit gay but will do it if required. just wondering if anyone has modded the AE86 seat rail? info on this would be really great. Cheers

cheers guys appreciated. looking at ajps site now.

hey all, I'm looking for a new sway bar for my ke70 and i know that ke70 and ae86's have the exact same floor pan but does anyone know if there sway bars are the same? for the ae86 there is a decent amount of after market support in that area, and ke70 not so much, so if i could get a ae86 and is the same size i should be pretty good. any help would be good Pete

This conversation went to pajeros pretty quick. my car has been fixed. i decided earlier to put my extroadinary panel beating skills to use and thought id fix it myself. my friend is a painter and he repainted my front quarter.......a bit. hope you enjoy. i assume your all familiar with the "drift monkey"

yeh i can tell you for free that whatever cash froms it is goin in my pocket. its only a thrash around. its been temporarily fixed with a drift monkey drawn on. thats about it. i have other cars that require cash rather than one that doesnt need it. drive it till it breaks, and once it breaks then fix it. too hard otherwise. my other rolla is the main one i care about.

lol thats pretty funny didnt know it was wanker in spanish. it explains this retard i know that has an old shit pajero that thinks he is from the country but live closest to the city than anyone yeh i also thanked her for that valandor. but still i would have pulled it out with my hands if it was a drive off. but no doubt i still would have been pissed. but she was visiting a neighbour across from my house so wouldnt be hard to track her down.

Nice, I'm dreaming to get a quote for 2g cause for my car it would be a write off, but i want some cash and i wont even worry about fixing it, i bought the car for a whole 700. i now know why i bought it aswell, cause wen people hit it i don't tend to care aslong as they pay. makes my pocket fatter.

yeh its not bad at all. i just put my hands under the guard and pulled that puppy out. it does love it. the pajero will be the main cost i reckon cause she screwed up her bumper.

didnt get to bed lastnight until about 4am just doing the usual chilling as uni holidays are on. and this morning i get a knock on the door and someone has hit my car. i originally thought it was a joke as i have heard it before as my paddock basher ke70 doesnt have the best of good looks. and i went outside and it was actual hit and the lady that hit it was just standing there giving me her details. she was in new pajero. so theres some free cash for me :) ive been looking for an excuse to buy a new car. its bit of a fairy tap.

hey man. sorry i don't mean to be rude or anything and forgive me if i misinterperate what you said, found it hard to understand some of what you said. you said you were looking for a diff to put your axles in? i believe from what i read is that you are trying to find a decent diff to put in your corolla, is that correct? I'm not sure how youd exactly go about finding out what axles your car has unless you pull them out. but if you are looking for a diff conversion youll need to see how your current rolla mounts up and take a look at the diff your wanting to buy and put in. since your in sweden you may be better off getting a strong diff over there cut up and made to fit a rolla, as in the end when something breaks in it, you can replace easily rather than hunt for old toyota parts. i hope that helped. Pete

thanks. i do have one I'm just being lazy as usual. and plus my dad has my newest one that he got me for christmas he is holding off on me although i should get it tonight. I'm about to go to pirtek and get them to make up my clutch line for me. correction i was redirected to clutch and brake services at south glenelg

yeh i just changed my studs the other day i needed to run nissan threads on my hubs. i went to auto pro to buy them. if you go to www.niceproducts.com.au youll find everything you need. like the interference fit that your current stud has and length etc. then you just look for one that matches or is fairly close but obviously longer in your case. if you go to sprints or auto pro or somewhere like that you can even look in there book. and to put the new studs on, you don't need to bash them on with a metal block and hammer. you just get some wheel nuts and tighten them on with a rattle gun, thats what i did and got those puppies on in no time with minimum fuss. you don't need an interfernce fit which is perfect mine went up by .1mm but you don't want to go down tho youd rather a tighter fit so it don't come loose. nice products has all that you need. its pretty basic

so heres the latest. ive been been fairly busy lately with uni and been away from the forums for a while. anyways ive had some shopping expeditions and spending some cash, and here is the latest. I got my borgwarner diff, has 4.11 gears, brand new LSD centre, pintara axles so i can keep the 4 stud pattern. i cleaned up the engine bay from all the grease and grime in there, intercooler is mounted. crossmember and gearbox member powder coated and sand blasted. custom front springs as I'm running a corolla top hat and the lower spring mount is corona. got the peugot discs on, i have the hilux calipers and ferodo excel brake pads but no photos at the moment. motor is in at the moment but again no photos. ill get them up soon. i changed the front studs aswell so i can run bluebird rims on it which i picked up a set of 5 for 60 bucks no tires but good condition. the current crap I'm waiting on is my GT3040 turbo. I'm getting the external gate off the exhaust housing thanks to 6boost. its a tial 45mm waste gate. and i have the haltech E6X computer. can't think of anything more at the moment but will update if need be.

yeh you are right they are fairly similar. the only thing thats funny with mine is that i need to get spacers (alloy bush style) and place them between the gearbox and gearbox mount as that mount with the sr gearbox sits a little low need to up it about 40mm. I'm still in progress on my car not completed yet but all of the mounts and crap like that are done. once you get an idea what you need to make its pretty easy. Pete

if worst came to worst you could always make your own. its honestly not that difficult. had to do it to for fitting my sr20 into my ke70 sedan. http://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m164/pe...pg?t=1167743785 http://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m164/pe...pg?t=1167743833 sorry its a little hard to see detail as this was when i got it back from the powder coaters. but you can tell which way it goes as you have seen your ke70 mount. i also used all four bolt holes rather than just the two for either manual or auto models. just to make it bit stronger. with a bit of measuring its fairly easy. goodluck.

fibre glass would absorb alot of the light. youd be better off going with a clear plastic rather than composite, a good plastic would be polyurethane, it has good uv properties and is also amorphous (Which is a type of plastic which is clear) unless it has colour additives. another very good type of plastic would be polycarbonate, cheap and very clear. altho you need polycarbonate that has uv stabilisers, as in its normal form is prone to uv attack. its still really cheap and fairly normal to get polycarbonate with the stabilisers. you could even go with Polyethylene Terephthalate(PET) which is what coke bottles are made of. up to you in the end. should be able to find offcuts from plastic manufacturers fairly cheap, they will pretty much throw it at you.

Honestly that is the biggest load of shit i ever heard. no way you should get done for that. tell him to go get F*#ked. if nothing comes out of it you may aswell book another lesson but don't go with that retard. clearly he has problems and shouldnt be instructing. even if he reckons you don't deserve your P's its not up to him because if you pass the test you pass thats all there is to it. id go with someone else. ive lived in SA here forever, but could you fill me in on latest laws for new P platers? i know the whole green and red P has been brought in but is there anything to do with time restrictions and shit? i got my p's about 3 years ago and only had to be on them for 2 years then got full licence. so i just scraped in. P.S. lately ive taken on the Zero Tolerance approach to things.

diff conversion is getting done at the moment. ill get pics up soon

for the record there is also a few other differences which include: ae71 has a hydraulic clutch, where as no ke70 ever did. the ae71 also has a different shaped breakline which crosses over to the passenger side strut tower. as it needs to shift over a bit to fit the hydraulic master cylinder. besides that they are the same shape

i can tell you that the drags will be coming back for a fact, but its the time frame that you should be worried about. The court case is currently going towards the city dismantlers owner, since he has an extremely strong case on his side. Bob Jane is causing all the hassels taking all the time in the world at the moment. but Bob Jane will lose the case because of the situation. If you wish to know the story of the court case let me know. but it is only a matter of time before the drags come back, and with bill russo (city dismantlers owner) running it, we should expect an increase in facilities and hopefully a board which actually gives times.

yeh ive heard about companies trying this before, they have never really made anything thats extremely effective tho. going onto the force-flow site it shows only about a 7hp increase. for $300 give or take i wouldnt bother. they have brought out a hybrid electric turbo on the new BMW's, but they are only to help the turbo's spool quicker thats about it. if your on a budget tho and want an increase of power i guess its something to try. if you do end up getting it let us know how it goes.

2JZ Jun Supra with nothing stock in the motor except the block. with atleast 1000hp at the wheels

with age comes cenial old farts today perfect example; turning onto souther expressway on south road where the expressway begins, I'm in the far left lane the one that has to merge, as i leave from the traffic lights there is a mirage next to me with some old tarts in it, and instantly they start turning into my lane, so i stay right next to them so i could collect some cash when they hit me, then they realised how close they were started mouthing off, so i hung out the window hailing fingers and abuse. i have no time for incompetant drivers on the road. i still don't understand why they turned into the merging lane after they broke and then went back into their lane. not that I'm sticking up for young drivers cause there are too many of them retards aswell. I'm in my 20's, and i still see alot of crackers. by the way all of my statements made are with regard to south australian drivers. alot of them make me sick. a healthy does of road rage never goes astray.
