I'M Back! Rt72 Corona Build
Wow! I can't believe how long it has been since I've posted on here. Time sure does fly when you're flat out busy. I have finally started stripping the donor car. Everything is so rusted it makes it quite difficult but I'm getting there slowly :). I do have photos, and I'll try and upload them soon. It's nothing too interesting, just car parts really. On a side note, I am desperate for some storage/workshop to be able to bring the other corona to so I can actually start working on it. So if anyone in the southern suburbs of adelaide has a shed/workshop they are willing to rent out I would be very very grateful :). Cheers Jason

Front grille you say? I'm still interested in any parts I can get my hands on. If you're willing to sell them to me I'd be more than happy to buy them off you.

I'M Back! Rt72 Corona Build
Some of you may remember me, I spent a lot of time here when i was in my mid-teens. It's been a couple of years since I've had a Corolla, but since then I've branched out into bigger and better things. In particular an RT72 Corona, which is being handed down to me by my dad's uncle. So I've spent the last 12 months or so researching the car, trying to find parts. Which has turned out to be quite a difficult task, considering finding information alone is hard enough. Luckily for me, I was lucky enough one day to come across a complete car that had been sitting in a paddock for 20 years. Here are some teaser pics of the paddock car as I actually haven't got any pictures of the one I will be restoring. As you can see it is rusted to hell, but is damn near 100% complete. I bought it purely as a parts car. The one I am restoring is actually in much better condition, but still needs a ground up restoration. Here is a picture of a Corona owned by one of the members on here Gavclassic. That is my motivation for this build. If I can get my Corona to be the quality of this one, I will be a very happy man. Cheers for lookin. Jason

Slo-038 + 10Psi
No worries man. Hopefully when it's all hooked up it fires right up no issues. It's a k motor so I'm sure you won't have a problem ;)

Diesel Vs Petrol
It blows smoke before the turbo kicks in. I have a feeling it's injectors also.

Diesel Vs Petrol
I've got myself a 94 surf with a 1kz in it. At this moment I don't think it is running at 100%, but I can tell you, even though it's not running quite right it is still killer off road and on. Just don't drive behind me otherwise you'll be dutched out by black smoke. ALOT of black smoke. Still trying to determin the cause of the smoke as there is several different things it could be. Anyway, diesel all the way. And if anyone has any ideas about my black smoke issues, don't be shy.

Yes it's hard to hear behind the brilliant blank stare she has so professionally mastered. If you think she's bad in transformers, try watching Jennifers Body... Not even worth the lesbo scene with her and some blonde chick. But maybe if there was some boobage it'd be alright.

Kinda like in the first Transformers movie where Megan Fox is talkin about the 'double pump carburetor' underneath the bonnet of the camaro. When in fact it was a fuel injection system...

Hilux Surf
Steer clear of the 2.4 and 2.8 autos. They have overheating issues due to the trans cooler blocking coolant flow. If you can get your hands on a kzn130 manual which is 3.0 litre you should be relatively safe. Just give it a thorough going over by a mechanic. Cheers Jason

Tastes awesome with a bit of pub squash and lime. Straight shots is just insane.
