prob the same guy, these are from there. said would throw in new ones if reached certain price. was hoping mine would fit, save some cash as its xmas. suppose i can sell my flat front lights and grill to recoup some cash.

this is the funniest thread on here at the moment. It will forever be know as an engine hat in my book.

are the quad light indicator lenses the same as the flat front ke70 lenses? Lookin to buy some quads but the lenses have more cracks than a plumber. My flat front ones are sweet. Yeah I'm just being cheap i know but got a mortgage to pay :hmm: Also is there a wiring diagram floating around to hook them up? (note: just added this as an afterthought, will search for it now...but if ya have a quick link handy, would appreciate.) cheers guy

Rims, tints, stereo. Done. Oh and a few rollaclub stickers :hmm:

damn it mine wont be ready either. always next year :hmm:

self bleed? so i don't need the missus, awesome.

yeah ive tried about 6 model shops and called a few in brisbane, nothing, Ill keep hunting the net...if i find any ill let everyone know.

anyone know where you can get corolla models? All makes and "models". Looking for a ke70 one been searching for ages. Not die cast something you can put together yourself, kinda wanna make a mini one of mine how i want it too eventually look. If this has been covered, apologies. Had a search on rollaclub but my internet so slow i gave up... Searched on the net but couldnt find anything. There must be some out there....

sweet as ive got a workshop manual floating around somewhere too....

^^^^its prob got an old soviet tank engine in it.....PUT IT IN H!!!!

cool cheers guys. if i find the problem ill let ya know for future reference. more than likely ill fix the problem somehow and not know what caused it but hey...

hoping to get most of the rwc stuff sorted out over the xmas break. And try get the 5 speed in too. Sooner the better I say.

every time. i've tried using the clutch different thinking it may be a quirk but na. high rev's, low rev's, doesn't matter.

yeah totally as far as i know. and has a 4 speed in it. it was originally 5 speed but gear ratios are the same till 5th yeah? Its done a heap of k's but been well serviced(so the chick who sold me it said). And still peppy when driving, as much as a dead stock rolla motor can be. Just that initial 5-10 meters when in first from stationary, then kinda pops into GO mode.

looks like it has as much bog and rust as my ke70...

angle grinders solve everything. My next door neighbour back in NZ cut new tread into his tyres with one. What a tripper.

when i put my foot down to take off she accelerates really slow for about 2 seconds then picks up. I noticed the accelerator cable is a bit slack but wouldnt think this would be a problem. Would a good carby clean help? Fuel pump? New plugs leads? All of the above? Just old? It only happens from standing start. I was prob gonna do all the afore mentioned things at some stage but if there is someone who has had the same problem and can narrow it down.. cheers guys.

hey yáll. been on this for a few months and havent said hi to you all. Names Reed, I'm living up on the sunny coast in beerwah. Bought a beige ke70 about 6 months ago (my third one, sold my last one for beer money, was slant front auto anyway). It has all the original chrome and 13"jellies. Oh and a push start button...ha ha. Currently tooling away on it in the garage whenever i have time, getting through the bits of rust and small shopping trolley dents, i've got a 5 speed to drop in it when i can find a spare pair of hands. Just bought brand new black carpet and interior bits and pieces, remaking the door cards myself. Got some brand spanker tail lights, shiny! can't wait to get it legal and "rolling" so i can hook up with some of you's on a cruise. (Anyone know a friendly mechanic?) If not i can bring my *sigh* 89 Laser Giha hatch. If anyones local and wants a hand on their cars let me know, I'm only learning as i go but i can crank a spanner as good as the next guy. And a second pair of skinned knuckles always helps.

NAME: Reed CAR: 82 ke70, no name yet, ideas? Motor & Driveline: 1.3 standard Suspension & Brakes: Standard Wheels & Tyres: 13" jellies. Interior: New black carpet, currently changing it all out to black, remaking door cards myself. Body: Typical. Usual acne in the usual places, filling it with bog. New taillights. other: Has a push start button, soooo Aston Martin :D getting a gear knob with push start. I'm a Top Gun ha ha ha

thanks heaps for this page. a few of the links don't seem to work... all good tho. Ill bookmark this for future reference. More worried about getting mine road legal at the moment...

yeah i was wanting to totally matt black my ke70. I'm not looking to do it original. I want to know if anyone knows interior acesssories from other cars that may fit...in black. AT the moment its that terrible beige. I'm keen to do it all by myself, if i have too, but if there are other car bits that fit and someone has already found out... I.E: The rubber trims around the doors that hold on the kick panels and the roof liner on? And yes i understand its not to your taste and I'm cheap not getting custom parts but its what "I" like and I'm just asking. Advice not abuse please...... I'm handy so if there are parts that can be modified let me know. Thanks.

so does anyone know a good ratio front to back and what model falcon springs i need?

cheers ke70 dave. ill grab the falcon springs. do they have to be from a particular year/model? I kinda thought the chop check method would be the answer, its just tedious.

just as a hypothetical discussion, say in some alternate universe I decided to cut the springs on my ke70 to lower it, does anyone have a theory of how many quarter/half/full coils that should be removed front and rear for approx. 50mm of lowering.

just scored brand new pair off ebay with bulb holders, rubber seal, bulbs and wiring for 130 bucks. Which seems reasonable considering the 45 dollar repco ones would have no bulb holders or wiring.
