hey guys

 

got my first rolla =] i picked up a 1981 4 door rolla with only 130 000 on the clock and it is super neat! 5speed and aircon!

 

the rear seat isnt to pretty its really ripped but the dash has no cracks and everything is clean roof lining door cards the whole lot no rust repairs and only some minor surface rust

 

ive got some big plans for it but keeping it as neat as possible don't really want to go hanging heaps of stuff off it specialy when its so overrated

 

so, so far i have put on my seat covers on cleaned up the engine bay abit put on a sports air filter white walls and crome rim trims i got a gauge for it today because the temp gauge doesnt work i got that wired up havent hooked it into the radiotor yet not to sure how to do it so if anyone knows how to do it please point me in the right direction that would be awsome and i just had a heavy duty clutch put in aswell nice head unit and 6x9s

 

other than the the wireing cought on fire thismorning that was intresting hahah all fixed now though so i got a fire extinguisher to =]

 

plans i have for it in the near future are:

 

thermo fan

 

exhaust

 

rear vanisian

 

front visor (not to sure were to get these from if anyone can help ocne again thatd be awsome)

 

I'm sure there will be more as time goes along ill keep it updated

 

the final plans if all goes to plan will be once I'm off my green ps:

 

4agze!

 

shortend hilux diff? (i think thats what i should use? its leaf rear)

 

levin box

 

bigger brakes fuel pump ect

 

so thats the start of things ill post some pics of it tomorow in the light

Hey man, wow, nice neat ride. Great starting point for a project. If you need anything man let me know, I have a ton of parts that I'm offloading atm.

So where in Bris are ya??

Yeh that'd be good man I'll be looking for a webber for it soon once I get the idea of how carbies work I'll do that

 

I'm getting the exhaust done next Friday extractors and 2 inch system with dump tip for 640

 

I'm in Albany creek dude

 

Cheers mitch

Awsome car dude. Great starting point. :)

You should come on the Towoomba cruise on Saturday the 5th of September and meet other members

thanks dude

 

yeh thatd be good other than i work saturdays witch doesnt help haha

 

i plan on getting out on some cruises when i can

 

picked up my thermo today and a breather ordered for the rocker cover and some red paint for the rocker cover =]

 

any sujestions how to fit the thermo?

Clean as my room mitch dawgg :) 5k this bitch up

hahaha once i pay my phone bill and rego ill be saving for a worked 5k with a webber or something on it and the venisian blind and sun visor ive found were to get them =]

 

a ke30 sunvisor should fit a ke55? they are pretty much the same aye? they only make a blind for the ke55 not the visor

By sunvisor you mean the internal one or the aftermarket external ones?

 

I have one of those venetians from my old KE30. I've promised it to rolladude, if he decides he doesn't want it your welcome to it. I also will be selling my 5K's tho they are only standard ones.

the mesh after market ones that go on the out side

 

yeh i realy want the blind for the back

 

so stuff that normaly fits a ke30 should fit my ke55 yeh?

 

might be keen on a 5k soon tims (08ftw) is pushing for me to get one hahah

 

hey tim ill get one you put it in deal yeh great hahaha =]

Yeah all KE3x/KE55 parts are interchangeable assuming they are of the same size/shape. All front ends are exactly the same and same with mechanicals Parts then differ as the bodies change. I hope that makes sense. If you need anything feel free to hit me up. I'm culling my collection a we speak.

how much for the rear blind if the other dude doesnt take it i shot gun it thats hot

 

how much for a stock 5k? my new exhaust and everything should bolt straight up and my air filter and stuff ?

 

cheers mitch

Yeah everything bolts up.

 

Umm I'd be looking for around $350 for the 5K and $120 for the venetian if it falls through.

if the blind falls through ill buy it right away

 

sweet ill keep it in mind there is a worked one for sale for 500 with cams and flat top pistons all thats stuff so if that goes befor i have the moneys ill take on of yours =]

if the blind falls through ill buy it right away

 

sweet ill keep it in mind there is a worked one for sale for 500 with cams and flat top pistons all thats stuff so if that goes befor i have the moneys ill take on of yours =]

 

Stay back that venetian is mine :P

Jip loves me :P he has two thing he is holding for me.
