hey hey well, just picked up my new daily driver.. its fairly tidy etc, cost me $600, doesnt have a WOF or a rego, but that will be solved in a couple weeks. just a bit of detail 1981 Toyota Corolla Station wagon, 3 Door, 4K 4spd cd player and speakers. piccies up soon. - David

hey hey hey, I'm back, hopefully for good this time. I sorta left about..hmm..close to 6 months ago, once i got sold my last corolla :D , but about an hour ago i purchased a new old one :o so Il be back to help support the club as I once previously did. its good to see how the club has progressed since i was last here, i have visited on the odd day, but through work and not having a corolla, i didnt spend much time. pics and details of my new ride will be in the project section. - David

a couple dudes over here in NZ are drifting ke70s, one was powered by a 3tgteu and the other I'm pretty sure was 4agze or 4agte.

haha, thats phat wouldnt be too hard to do, just a matter of getting it all setup and strong enough. mounting mounts are easy enough to make.

better off getting a SWB landcruiser 4wd chassis, and then adapting a corolla body to it, go for a tube frame setup, and then drop in a supercharged V6 out of the hilux etc. :down: edit - toyota doesnt as of yet put out a supercharged v6 - but could be done by adapting an SC14 or similar.

bugger.. not a good month for you is it Mikey, hope next month is better :down:

well, what do you wanna know about it? its pretty much the same as a ke70, just different engine and drivetrain.

Name: David Car: 1981 TE71 Corolla Liftback Motor & Driveline: 2T-B & T50 - Factory, 3SGTE and W55 going in soon Suspension & Brakes: Factory, Upgraded soon Wheels & Tyres: Factory, 13x5.5/9 spitfires with 26x10x13 DOT drag Slicks Interior: Stripped, race seat and dash remain Body: Factory red, respray in red with slight bodykit. Other: project car, currently in the planning stages, but you get the general idea from what iv posted :)

my old ke30 had the same problem, shame the previous owner did a shite job of patching it.

no good for drifting, due to the short wheel base, better off going with a *E70 sedan and then setting it up for drift - the wheel base is very much the same as the ae86, in terms of length

i have a 3A engine manual on the way, should hopefully be here within a week or 2(roughly) , if you can wait that long?

got headgaskets ? :)

only *E7* stuff will bolt onto the *E7*, though i have seen honda front bumpers and ae82 front bumpers on them, but will require slight mods.

what is the chassis code? if its a FWD corolla such as an *E82/0 then the rear bumpers will bolt on, but *E7* items wont.

good old TT1** - had a 3TGTEU engine, came in coupe form. there was also sedans and wagons with the 3T-C engine.

pages arent working for me :P

yep..over in the states they are fairly common

interesting, as my ke30 never had that. what colors are the wires? il check my wiring manual for you.

as far as i know, the KE30 didnt have a master cylinder low level warning system, so the fault will lie at the switch on the handbrake lever. possibly a blown fuse also.

hahaha - goodluck trying to find them over here.. if they were that easy, id have a set on my te71

found it :)

wow..try get those dyno sheets and specs that sounds pretty cool :down:

heh, figured they were, i wonder if they are still registered over here or if they got sold and then kept them and got some remakes lol

the scottsmotorsport ke70 = TRD KE70 on here? if yes, is that plate from NZ, or is it an aussie one? lol sorry..

wtf are they? :) silly aussies :P
