I was unsure of what the diferent model designaions where, and what they looked like, so i did a little research, and tought that what i came across, wight help a few others that may be in my position :( :(

 

KE1x

1966-1969

 

The initial car, the KE1x series was small, with a 90 in (2286 mm) wheelbase, and used a 4-speed manual transmission or 2 speed automatic transmission, with rear wheel drive.

 

The suspension in front was MacPherson struts supported by a transverse leaf spring beneath the engine crossmember, with leaf springs connected to a solid axle in back.

 

Japanese engines:

 

1K — 1.1 L (1077 cc) I4, 2-valve OHV, carb, 60 hp (56 kW)

3K — 1.2 L (1166 cc) I4, 2-valve OHV, carb, 55 hp (41 kW)

 

JPN-market chassis:

 

KE-10/11 — Sedan, 2-door/4-door

KE-15 — Hardtop coupe

KE-16 — Wagon, 2-door

 

KE2x

1970-1978

 

The KE26 wagon and van were still marketed in Japan after the 30-series was introduced.

 

Japanese engines:

 

2T-C — 1.6 L (1588 cc) I4, 2-valve OHV, carb, 75 hp (56 kW)

3K-C — 1.2 L (1166 cc) I4, 2-valve OHV, carb, 55 hp (41 kW)

 

JPN-market chassis:

 

KE-20 — Sedan, 2-door/4-door (Std, DX, Hi-DX)

KE-25 — Hardtop coupe (DX, SL, SR)

KE-26 — Wagon, 3-door Panelvan, 3-door

KE-27 — Hardtop coupe (Levin/Trueno)(also known as TE27) (scrap that, apparently, a KE27 is a KE55 dressed up to lok like a TE27, who would have guessed?? :lock: )

 

KE3x, KE4x, KE5x

1974-1981

 

The 3K engine were used in certain markets, while most Japanese and American models had the stronger 2T engine. A "Toyoglide" 2/3-speed automatic transmission was added as well as a four-speed and five-speed manual tranmission, driving to the rear wheels. A three-door "liftback" (KE50) and sport coupe (KE51) was added in 1976. The KE40 and KE60 series were assigned to the Sprinter variants.

 

Japanese engines:

 

2T-G — 1.6 L (1588 cc) I4, 8-valve DOHC, carb, 124 hp (93 kW)

2T-C — 1.6 L (1588 cc) I4, 2-valve OHV, carb, 75 hp (56 kW)

3K-C — 1.2 L (1166 cc) I4, 2-valve OHV, carb, 55 hp (41 kW)

4K-C — 1.3 L (don't know cc) I4, 2-valve? OHV, carb, not sure of power rating. (4k was in KE38 and KE55 apparently, but no other??)

 

JPN-market chassis:

 

KE-31 — Sedan, 2-door/4-door

KE-36 — wagon, 3-door

KE-38 — Wagon, 5-door

KE-37 — Hardtop coupe (Levin)

KE-51 — Sport coupe (Levin)

KE-55 — Liftback and sedan, 4-door

 

NOTE:

1. KE70 models were not added as i could only find USA specs.

2. This info was sourcd using www.google.com :D and wikipedia. i simply thought it might be nice to share :D :D

3. I have a feeling that a few of my fotos may not correspond with the actual names i have given to them, so please don't flame me, rather just suggest to me what i should fix :D

Couple of things....

 

Great that a newbie is adding things and doing research instead of sponging straight away :lock:

 

Change the ke21 to a ke20. As far as i know there isnt a ke21 in existance.

The blue ke25 you pictured is a ke20 but the others are right.

The ke26 also came in a pannelvan.

And there is no such thing as a ke27 as far as i know. There is the genuine Te27 and thers the Ke25. A 'Ke27' is a ke25 dressed up to look like a te27.

 

Correct me if in wrong on anything but yeah. I'm only right into my 20-series so i couldnt tell you if anything else is wrong.

aiight, cool thanks, um, on the KE27, i had to type in TE27 to find a pic, so yeah, that would be right

 

With the KE21, i had never heard of a 21, only a 20, but what info i found, said only 21, so i figured they were the same, but labeled the pic, so itmatched the info, in order to avois, "well one says this, the other says that??"

 

and with the blue KE20/25, the same picture came up when i typed in both KE20 and KE25 so i just put it as a 25.

 

KE26, no excuse for this one, the info i used didnt tell me, so i didnt know :D but wouldnt the p/van, just be the same, but blacked out windows on the back??

 

thanks for the help mate, ill change them now for you :D :D

 

Cheers

Nathan

I think the KE31 is a TE31

 

and the KE51 is a TE51

so is it just the name wrong or the pics are not the right car?? is a TE a corolla???

first letter is the motor

second letter and number is the series shape

ke 20 uses a k-motor

te 27 uses a t-motor

 

So my car will technically be an "ae20" using an a-motor

Just the name.

 

so is it just the name wrong or the pics are not the right car?? is a TE a corolla???

The KE55 Also had the 4K-C engine (1.3L).
