February 28, 200917 yr comment_323455 Hey guys, My name's tom & I thought it's about time i posted up about 1 of my corolla's lol. It just so happens that bought it from a mate of mine during the week. Cheers Josh :dance: I've previously had 3 ke70's & 4 ae71's over the year's (1 with a 100kw 4age which has been sold for a couple of years now & missed every day lol), but this is my final 1 that i'm allowed for a while. EDIT: Alright there's been a change in plans. I had recently bought the orange ke70 off my mate, then i got offered a swap for my girlfriends younger brothers ae71 with a smallport rwd converted 4age engine, loom & ecu. Specs on the orange ke70 were as follows: 83 model slant front ke70 sedan Custom orange paint job. Pair of 14" hotwires on front. Pair of 14" 5 spoke mullins on the rear. 4k, 5 speed, extractors & exhaust done by the owner before last. Lowered on cut springs at the moment (I think but i haven't jacked her up yet to see what we're dealing with). Did have half stripped interior (no back seats, no door trims or roof lining) but have since put rear seats back in. Neighbourhood watch sticker on rear bumper over the exhaust & the gingerbread man drift toy on the otherside. Also came with a front lip, a spare boot & 14 wheels all up. (A set of stock steelies, a set of ke70 csx alloys, a set of 14" mullins 5 spokes & a pair of 14" hotwires). I'll update the full specs on the ae71 a bit later on.

Hey mate, cheers for the kind words. With my old 71 i had lowered king springs (40mm) + chopped 2 coils & they gave me -3.9 degrees (negative) camber which was quite alright. A mate of mine ran the same suspension setup as me but he had sigma lca's & he ended up with the same (-3.9) as me. It looked tough as from the front. But with stock suspension or just fractionally lowered i think it's about -2 degrees or there abouts. And yeah i just :) the orange hey, it suits the shape of 70/71 just right! I was thinking of the 2 tone aswell but the more orange the better i reckon :dance: Edited February 28, 200917 yr by Rola Drifter Report

March 3, 200917 yr Author comment_324283 looking good mate i also love the orange and black as you can see on my seca. wayne Cheers for the comments guys, really appreciated. Wayne i reckon your seca looks pretty good for how cheap it was mate. Good work. Also i've done a search but couldn't find what i'm after, does anyone know where i might be able to find a diagram to find out what colour the charge light wire is behind the dash cluster in the ke70??? I've got the dash apart inside & there doesn't appear to be the same colour wire as to whats in the engine bay coming from the alternator. Anyone that can point me in the right direction?? Cheers Tom Report
March 3, 200917 yr Author comment_324290 4agte time? Lol i'd love to man but this is gonna be my pretty much stock last xE7x for a while. Maybe plans could change if i find a cheap enough rusted ae71 for cheap, but i doubt it! I also got a nikki carby from brad (beerhead) yesterday, so when the time comes that i have some cash i'll be getting a mild cam for it just to get a little extra power out of the 4k :| Report

March 4, 200917 yr Author comment_324390 haha well the best thing is that i haven't painted it this colour, i just bought it like it is. I'm sure there isn't any down your way that are this colour. It's the colour that made me buy the car in the first place :| Report
