Gday all,

 

Flirting with the idea of getting into "Rollas and need to be educated!

 

I come from a blue oval back ground & love MK 1 Escorts (had a twin cam for years) but am thinking of straying over to the orient after great experiences with our Hiace / Liteace vans.

I have found a 4 door manual that I like the look of so am thinking big brakes, superlites, coilovers, 4AGE and those cool bolt on flare things.

I want to do sprint days and have a cool after hours ride I can use for winding back road cruising.

 

Where do I start? Suspension and brakes, then wheels (I like the JDM look that gets featured in the UK "Retro" magazine). Do Willwood or someone do a kit?

What parts are interchangeable between the models?

Does Sprinter gear fit OK?

Who does brake kits for 4 wheel disc conversions etc?

Which 5 speed should I get?

Is 4AGE the best way to go (I like the idea of big revs and N/A)

Will a beams motor fit?

Who does conversion kits etc?

Are there any Corolla specialist on the E side of Melb?

 

I know I have asked many questions but time is against me as I am looking at the car tomorrow and she has people lined up to look (?)

 

Thanks in advance.

"4 door manual" what?

Will a beams motor fit?

Peter Robinson runs a good early model corolla wrecker, he's in Oakleigh. Sam-Q is a good person to speak to about custom fab etc.
