Here's a small introduction to what's resulted in countless hours, days, weeks, months, years of hard work, tears & dollars spent. The year is 2004, I acquired a Toyota Corolla from one of my friends, Nick. The vehicle had been stripped out with the engine bay painted, sitting beside a colossal pile of parts. Due to lack of time and a few others things, I acquired the old girl on her journey towards a better life. Its an Australian Delivered, 1982 KE70 Sedan owned previously by a Family from the south side of Brizzy. Maybe the 2nd owner? 3rd? who knows. The vehicle drove into the shed as presented below, eventually to end up getting a complete nut-and-bolt restoration. Well, we did use some of the old hardware.. but you get the point. More Pictures of Day 1 -> Click HERE <- 17th September 2005 was the official start date of ownership & spanner throwing on the old girl. It's become an unofficial 2nd birthday ! Looking back at the project now and the 50+ pages of updates over the next 13 + years, Its turned into a digital diary of the ups, the downs, the successes and the failures. To all of the people that have looked at this over the years, I thank you for your continued support and hopefully i'll try to update this on a semi regular basis. It still gets driven, every day, as a daily driver - as originally intended all those years ago : ) T

Daily driver with many battle scars. I've had it for a bunch of years and it has variously been lowered, weber'd etc but it's completely stock these days. It was a daily driver until recently when the motor gave up the ghost. Symptoms indicate that a blown head gasket is the most likely problem. It's still driveable but not long term. The chassis has 300,000+ km on it, but the motor has already been replaced once (at $50, a new secondhand motor was cheaper than a set of gaskets!). I installed Jaycar high energy ignition kits on all my old cars, and this one has one. Brilliant!! never need to adjust points! Let's call it a kill switch .. you can just see it nestled in where the radio was.I'll include a spare motor I bought a few years ago for this very occasion .. I was told that it had "recently ish" had new rings etc. It will swap straight over but I have neither the time nor the inclination these days. I will include all the spares/bits I've accumulated through the years .. from memory: 32 DIR weber downdraft complete with adapter plate for the 4AC (this was a pretty decent mod) Two 32/36 weber downdrafts - one was part way through a rebuild before something else became a higher priority. OEM carb that "most likely" works okay (I don't remember whether I've actually ever used it). Short stroke rear shocks + a complete set of chopped springs from, when I was working out what would be a good rate/length. I always intended to get Industrial Springs to make me some custom ones based on these as they're damn near perfect for a well handling but stull useful AE71. The bits that can be seen missing from the dash in the photos. Various other bits and pieces .. there's a spare head complete with rocker cover, cam, a distributor, a couple of distributor caps etc I'll most likely remove the headunit and parcel shelf speakers before it goes, so they're not included in the price. Currently registered until 7th June. It'll also go on gumtree in the next couple of days. cheers

Looking for a ae71 ke70 slant front apron and bumper (the STEEL SUPPORT that sits behind plastic sleeve- pictured is of a rear bumper but I am after the slant front version of the steel insert - both have the steel support bar inside) Anyone in Victoria (or other states willing to ship) wrecking a ae71 or ke70 slant front (red preferable but not necessary) PLZ contact me - tell your friends! my mint 1984 red ae71 Corolla was crashed by my now ex partner and have managed to collect some parts needed but need these last two to finish the job. Have been looking for these parts for almost a year as Victoria seems to have a massive shortage of them available :( had a bumper shipped from tassie for $120 + $200 shipping and the seller failed to mention he threw out the metal support bar so this search has become extremely frustrating and expensive, so Not looking to pay crazy prices pls Tags : wrecking, ke70, ae71, slant front, bumper, parts, front end, panel, repair, apron, valance, Toyota, Corolla, 1984, Melbourne, Victoria , spares

Hey, looking at adding an EFI fuel pump into the existing tank on my AE71, just street use. Are there any Toyota pumps that are the right height to fit with little to no modification? I'm aware I'll need to cut a hole in the top to fit the pump, I'll also be installing baffles in the tank. Alternatively if anyone has a source on a EFI AE86 tank that make life easier.

Hey, I've got a AE71 wagon, the Park lights and indicators don't work currently. I checked all the fuses and none are blown. The hazard relay works (is the indicator relay separate or the same one?), so I was thinking the combo switch could of died. I wanted to test the indicators to make sure, anyone know the colours for the indicator wires coming out of the combo switch? Alternatively the wiring diagrams would be a big help(I'll grab a repair manual if that's what it takes.)

Does anyone know what these struts are from? I tried fitting them into my AE71 a while ago and the top bolts had a larger pattern and stud to the AE71. The bottom fit to the steering knuckle however it has that little extra space underneath, i don't know whether that would be an issue? Anyway i believe these may have come from a RA60 celica or some model Corona. The Strut says: TOYOTA JAPAN, JY-30S The caliper says: B, 4XF, 2204 This is all from the R side strut

Imgur album: Figure I'll put a thread up here since i've lurked here for so long xD. This is to be my daily driver and is scheduled to be back on the road this arvo (pumped). I purchased myself an ae71 off boostcruising (lol) about 6 months ago. Just got rego yesterday, but broke down with fuel issues on the way home (filled up the tank for the first time in who knows how many years, stirred up shit in the tank that shouldn't have been stirred up). Leaving that to the mechanic because I really can't be ʞ©$ɟed xD. Recent pics: Semi recent pics: With these: Came with: - 4ac 5spd with a weber downdraft, ʞ©$ɟed radiator - cut falcon springs all round - 3 shocks - 3 working brakes - 3 seatbelts, two of which worked - resprayed exterior 2pac white. ok I guess, rust repairs bad. - no bumpers - locked stock borgy* - cut rear arches - ʞ©$ɟed taillights - ʞ©$ɟed everything What I've done: - A shit ton of maintenance - New suspension. MA61 struts and brakes up front (coilover sleeved), falcon sway and cut king superlow springs on the rear (captive), commodore wagon rear shocks, open stock borgy* - Pajero mc, braided lines - Hotwires in 14x6 - New tailights, wired up a dodgy reverse light set up with a relay from supercheap - Re-sealed the boot, did some dodgy-er rust repairs - Lots and lots of little things like window washer and steering boss Been a big job so far, and I'm still not quite at the part where it all pays off. But still a whole lot of fun and learning. Immediate plans is to get the fueling sorted, drive it, seal the boot lip properly as it has some leaks, and finish some bogging in the wheel wells, then drive it more. Future plans are e30 boot lip, some variety of black plastic front lip (FOH? idk), and when I can afford it (might be next year I'm poor), finish rebuilding the 4age smallport I have, and chuck it in with the weber and a 4k dizzy machined to fit. Want to to keep nice street manners and handle well, so I am a bit reluctant to put the locker back in, but also want to take it to give drifting a go, tis a dilemma. A few pics of build so far: not so SOON.

Hi all, Just wondering if the Ebay Alloy radiators are worth it as I'm going 4AG-TE in my AE71. I currently have the original 4ac and it was fitted with a thermo fan, http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/FULL-aluminum-alloy-radiator-toyota-Corolla-AE71-AE72-/261213476702?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3cd189575e&_uhb=1 With the increase in power I am assuming I will need a better radiator. If there is anything good/bad to know about them it would be nice to know!

Hi all, Wasn't sure if this was the place to post thi. But I want to know where this front spoiler is from, or if it was for another car and modified to suit? I really like it as it's slightly different to all the others out there.

Hi all, recently purchased the above vehicle and gave it a full major service including rebuilding the carby, and it ran fine for a week, but recently have gotten some gremlins. Firstly before I took it in for a service it would stall under acceleration after lagging and spluttering, and when I got it back it ran fine for about a week and has since started up again. It had trouble starting yesterday so I left it, came back in the arvo started it and let it idle awhile and all seemed normal. Then this morning started it let it warm up and then took off for work - got about halfway there and again the spluttering then dying engine and battery light coming on. Started it a few times, occaisionally would crank and crank but no power, other times it would start but as soon as I put my foot down it would hesitate and splutter again then die. I'm at a loss as to what could be causing this, can anyone offer advice?? Cheers!

Just wandering what tyres people have been using for drift, how long did they last?, how much power were you running?, psi?, did they delam? and were they ran backwards? (directional tyres) and of course the cost per tyre and how they performed! slippery or grippy, predictable at speeds etc. and also what front tyres do you run for a bit of grip! cheers! :dancetall: :dancetall: :dancetall:
