KE7T

HEY GUYS thanks all for your replies but i shall no longer be needing that pedal box as ive just picked up an AE71 SPRINT for $350!!!!! As soon as i got it home right away i got stuck into removing that GOLD pedal box and there was this one little bolt up the top that was a REAL PITA to get to and finally when i did remove it and hold it in my hands it was a good feeling to have finally found one i simply had to buy a complete corolla to get one .This car is well beyond considering getting on the road as there is RUST RUST AND MORE RUST just about everywhere one looks so i will be parting it out soon in the vehicles wrecking section , the motor is ʞ©$ɟed but apart from the pedal box its all there CHEERS

jason ?

T18 OR AE86 I THINK ????

Has anybody tried a converted T18 pedal box apparently there is little modding to do to make them fit and work well and they seem to be more readily avaliable compared to those GOLD ae71 hydro pedal boxes

Its all begining to sound a bit to difficult (for me that is) that must be why ae71 hydro pedal boxes fetch premium prices , i think SQ ENGINEERING is in the process of fabbing these up ?

HEY ALL ive given up searching for that impossible to find AE71 HYDRUALIC PEDAL BOX and have decided to fab one up myself by converting my ke70 cable one to hydrualic . It can't be that hard to do by the looks of this all i have to do is drill a hole on the clutch pedal for the master push rod but from what i can gather from looking at pics of the ae71 hydro unit there appears to be a bracket on it with the 2 small bolt holes and the large hole for the clutch master cylnder. THIS SEEMS HARD TO MAKE would it be ok just to mount master to firewall or what i was thinking is to cut out the area around the mastercylnder firewall from a wreck then weld it inside to give firewall a little extra strength then drill the holes for the slave but what is confusing me is it appears that the ae71 clutch pedal runs on the LHS of the steering colum.Just one more thing if some body has an original AE71 pedal box in their rolla i need to know the distance from the clutch pedal pivot bolt to the clutch master push rod bolt THANKS ALL

As far as i know nothing is avaliable for ke70 / ae71 from toyota anylonger except gaskets and maybe rad hoses ,spare parts bloke told me not even tie rods and ball joints are avaliable

HEY whats the art of shifting T50 gears quickly ??????????

HEY BUD google KILLING COROLLA GEARBOX this bloke is running a twin charged 4age in his ae86 , id love my car to have that same power !!!!!!

HEY BUD is that 4agze crank the same as the 20 valve CHEERS

HI ALL my ke70 body is being dipped at the moment then treated to hopefully prevent future rust occuring just wanted to ask your oppinion on seam welding or double spot welding a road going 20 valve ke70 . had planned on fitting a strut bar and for the rear end i did not want any bars inside of the boot but ive read elsewhere that by fitting a towbar it really stiffens up the rear end ? also whats your thoughts on those ultra racing under guard braces . any help will be greatly appreciated CHEERS

HI ALL i am building my ke70 for street use with the 20 valve / t50 / t series i am in the process of purchacing parts for my build and ive just got some questions i would be really pleased if somebody could take the time to answer . what type of shocker/ spring / steering are you guys using and or recomend . i am leaning towards the ae86 adjustable struts with cusco tops as there seems to be a huge amount of springs and shocks avaliable if i go this route what kg springs work best for road going rollas and do i really need adjustable shockers i am planing on fitting adjustable rear spring platforms if they are legal ? and a tower brace (TOWER TO TOWER NOT THE TRI FIREWALL STYLE). For the rear end i don't want any intrusions/ bars inside of the boot but i read somewhere that by fitting a towbar it really stiffens up the rear end ? Another option is seam welding if its legal of course it may affect crumple zone i read somewhere else and maybe those ultraracing inner guard braces. also thinking about ae86 shorter power steering arms to make the steering more direct but will the stock ke70 tie rods be ok length wise for these arms. Another route i could go is an expensive QAUIFE QUICK RACK FROM THE UK has anybody used this with the ae86 shorter arms ? . iam thinking about fitting FULL nolathane bushes to every suspention joint or is anyone running rose joint rear links and front control arms and those metal bushed castor bars would these be to rigid and cause chassis to CRACK ? i am not at all concerned about comfort i just want it to handle the best it can possibly get for the road have not decided yet on wheel size iether 14x7 ma61 with 185 60 or lower profile or maybe 15s. just out of curiosity with front end alighnment settings generally how much negative camber would be ok and i spoke to a front end tech today about castor but would like your opinion on what castor works best for your road going corollas eg : maximum positive or the lowest positive . i will post pics of my build soon the body is currently being dipped to remove all paint and little bits of rust here and then it will be treated to prevent any future rust happening so basically its a full ground up resto job using as much brand new parts as possible i made the decition to restore my corolla becouse i really love them for their looks and being rear wheel drive.... THANKS ALL

HEY FELLAS when i rebuilt the rack outa my ke70 i fitted heavy duty thick walled boots which i got from repco they are a repco part and the same quality as original toyota which have been discontinued also fitted the superpro brand nolathane rack mount bushes i got from autobarn

GEEZ THANKS GUYS this forum to me is a wealth of information who better to ask than people who have " been there and done that " it will save me a lot of time and money experimenting anyway the 3.9 idea i have chucked and now leaning towards 4.1 / 4.3 / 4.5 . i don't want a locker diff but would like to know if the ae86 factory lsd will be fine and i have one more question are all 3 of these ratios still avaliable NEW from somewhere THANKS AGAIN ALL

HEY MATE congratulations on finding such a clean csx , original low kilometer examples like yours are VERY HARD to come by nowdays i know becouse ive been looking for some time now . Personally i would not modify it in anyway that i could never return to original. May i ask what you picked this gem up for ?
