Hi guys, I'm a new owner of a pretty old rolla. It's a 1983 KE70 Corolla wagon CS. Just wondering if there's a site with a little more detail about this car, or if anyone else has one that they've done some work too. I'm basically keeping it as a second car, and am keen to take it on little trips etc, as I see that as the advantage of having a wagon ;)

 

Also, does anyone know what size speakers fit in these cars? Maybe 4 or 6 inch in the front, and the rear speaker holes look pretty big- maybe 6 x 9, but I haven't had a good look. There's currently no speakers or system in the car at all, so I'm keen to buy a little system for it. Let me know what you think. The car has done 377000kms!! (anyone had one go further than 400000?) Not sure how far these engines will go- but i'm hoping a little further. I got the car for free, so should be a good deal.

 

Let me know if you've got a similar wagon, or can help out.

Cheers,

Mark

I do know of a site: www.rollaclub.com

Should head over there they know pretty much everything about corollas, they have this search thing, lets you search for exactly what you need.

Have a good one. ;)

as above. For your speaker install have a look here:

for the front speakers I suggest Jaycar response 4" or 5" if you can fit them

There is a club devoted specifically to 7th Gen Corollas (KE70, AE71, TE72 etc)

 

web address is http://www.ke70.com

 

also thats a great lil wagon you've got there. looks fairly overrated ;)

 

and my AE82 is currently coming up on 380XXX, so I guess I'll find out soon if it will live or not o.0

 

btw dude, you in melbourne?
