JiP Posted January 20, 2009 Report Posted January 20, 2009 Hey, congrats on the find and welcome to the club. Got any pics?? ;) So planning an engine upgrade?? Paint jobs?? How is the paint on it now?? Hmmm, I wanna see pics. Quote
ae71piggie Posted January 20, 2009 Author Report Posted January 20, 2009 the paint is pretty neat hey and i can't find any rust so its a decent score I'm not that keen on engine transplant I'm mre keen to work on the one thats in it I'm just curious as to what kinda exhuast ect i would need thats the only pic i have so far grant Quote
JiP Posted January 20, 2009 Report Posted January 20, 2009 I'm confused. Is this an AE71?? Cause before you said it was a KE70. And where are you located?? For my daily I got a 2" sports exhaust system with extractors and a cannon. Quote
ae71piggie Posted January 20, 2009 Author Report Posted January 20, 2009 well i thought it was a ae 71 but then been told its a ke 70 I'm confused hey dude i dunno really I'm not that good with cars hence asking for what i should do haha Quote
ae71piggie Posted January 20, 2009 Author Report Posted January 20, 2009 any help would be great guys hahaha Quote
Johno Posted January 20, 2009 Report Posted January 20, 2009 Welcome to rollaclub and nice score with the car. Options.. ;) Not too big on idea's with ke7x but just what Jip said, 2" sport's exhaust will give it a bit of extra up 'n' go. Tinted windows, 15" rims. You can find heaps of spare parts on here too.

ae71piggie Posted January 20, 2009 Author Report Posted January 20, 2009 yeh atm I'm lookin at a set of 13" hot wires is what i really want and the 2" is what I'm keen on then tints prob keep it like that for a while then maybe sr20 haha whos knows Quote
hilux05 Posted January 20, 2009 Report Posted January 20, 2009 (edited) going by that badge on the side that says 1.6. i would be inclined to say its an ae71.. if the carbys on the drivers side then you picked up the bargain of the century...espically if its a manual.. don't even bother with that motor, 4age just bolts in an can be picked up pretty cheap, your gear box will also bolt up.. wheels. yeah get some 13's, dump it and your away.. richie..

JiP Posted January 20, 2009 Report Posted January 20, 2009 Yeah I saw the 1.6 and thats why I thought it was an AE71. Plus that's the guys name ;) Quote
ae71piggie Posted January 20, 2009 Author Report Posted January 20, 2009 hahah yh well i figured it was the only bad thing is.......its auto ;) haha but oh wells still free car is better then paying for one haha Quote
towe001 Posted January 20, 2009 Report Posted January 20, 2009 You'll be able to figure out what the chariot is by its build plate. The great thing about it being free is that you'll turn over a good profit when its time to sell. So if the auto really gets up your nose fix it up rego it and trade or sell for a manual And welcome to the 'club Quote
ae71piggie Posted January 20, 2009 Author Report Posted January 20, 2009 yeh thx guys all the help is appreciates hey any one on the coast got exhaust and or lowering done to their rollas I'm curious as to pricing n stuff and I'm gonna keep the auto till i get off my ass and get my manual licence don't get me wrong i can drive a manual as good as the next bloke but my intrsuctor was a tool and i faild haha Quote
