Sloth

I should be free. Not sure if the Driftegra will survive another drive down the Clyde though, lol.

Most people on here would hate this... but I'm a big fan of rice, looks awesome!

KE55? :lolcry:

There is an IDA (Initial Drift Australia) drift day on at Wakefield this Sunday (8th of January, 2012). Free for spectators, cars on track from 9:30 More details here: http://www.maztuned.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=515181

Haven't been checking the forums lately so I missed this one. If you are in Canberra and interested in a bolt in engine upgrade for you KE I have a 7k with twin SUs for sale in my KE55. It doesn't make heaps of power, but it's got a lot more than a stock 4k and has got quite a bit of torque. If you are interested at all (or need some KE55 bits as I'll be wrecking mine soon) send me a PM. Welcome to the Canberra rolla scene.

Tarmac ended up getting a KE55. I'll probably be parting out my KE55 soon, so if there are extra panels and stuff people need let me know.

The only way to know for sure is to contact an engineer (preferably the one you are going to use to engineer the car) anything else that you hear online (aside from this advice) is quite possibly wrong.

When putting a 4A into a KE70, people will use either an AE86 or AE71 engine crossmember, so I'd assume that you would need to get something custom made (could be a kit or something out there). You would most likely need the hydro clutch setup. As mentioned, the KE70's have a cable clutch, whereas most more modern things will use a hydraulic. These used to be around $80-$100 each, though now people are asking (and getting) upto $250. My advice (and the advice off almost everyone else on the forums) would be to find an existing build thread where someone else has done the conversion (as it's fairly common) and see what they have done. This will also let you find out all the possible pitfalls etc.

Valid opinion... though I thought the standard approach of all Corolla owners was: Step 1: Remove emissions stuff Step 2: ?????? Step 3: Profit!

Yeah I have one of those grilles on my KE55, always wondered what the badge looks like. I reckon it's my favourite of all the grilles.

The dog is loving it, getting woken up by a barking dog is just what I want at 6:20am on a Monday morning :/

The FT-86.... aimed at drifters and golfers alike!

Depends what sort of condition you want the shell in.... the roof on mines a little better than yours, but the rust isn't great....

I just missed getting pictures of the roll (I had taken some of you approaching the corner and was looking at them on the camera when everyone started gasping etc. I chucked a couple of pictures from the event up on my smug mug here: http://craigtregear.smugmug.com/Cars/LCCC-Khanacross/LCCC-Khanacross-03-12-2011/20395400_vQ2WQW#1613934152_6jfF6j6 I was quite shocked and impressed to hear that I came first on road tires and second outright, wasn't expecting that at all. I then found at later (just after I had begin to think I wasn't terrible) that there had been a scoring error and in fact I hadn't come second, I'd actually done really badly (which was expected, though after thinking I wasn't too bad it was a bit of a kick in the balls bringing me back to the harsh reality of my terrible driving ability). I know that there is a particular KE55 for sale in Canberra, it has a lot of rust, but also has a 7k :wink: ..... http://www.rollaclub.com/board/topic/56447-7k-ke55-act-no-regorwc/
