KE70 GL

Just give me a call when your ready to get it done and i can confirm a price for you, i'll just need to make sure my supplier has them in stock too

Ok so haven't posted about this in ages, i've fixed all the pictures links since i changed my photobucket account so everything should be working.

Have been slowly plugging away with this thing but since starting my own business i haven't really been in a position to put much money into this thing lately.

Engine bay as it sits now, engine is wired up and all unnecessary wiring has been removed, have gone to an electric radiator fan as the stock fan ended up being to far away from the radiator to be much use, intake has been changed and exhaust manifold fitted, also changed camber plates

ECU,switches,fuses have all been mounted up inside and also have fitted a factory rev counter dash which has been repined so everything works as normal, lots of other little stuff too new wheel bearings, new brake rotors etc

Picked up some more 13s which are fitted with 2nd hand TRS slicks will most likely buy brand new slicks for racing on but these will be fine for practice

Of course you have to have your company name on the car somewhere

can you do window rubbers for a 71 corona rt84?

Rare spares list them would be cheaper for you to buy it yourself as i don't get any discount with rare spares and my usual suppliers only carry rubbers for common modern stuff like hiaces etc

Sorry for the slow reply, I had something set wrong on my email. Looking for a new rubber for it

Not really something any of my suppliers would carry sorry, have you tried Toyota for one?

what is a ballpark price on one of those?

Can you source seals too? $$?

I could do one of those for $222.75+gst supplied and fitted

I doubt any of my suppliers would carry a rubber for something that old, i know rare spares have them but i don't have an account there as yet so can't get them any cheaper

if you come across a laminated Mk.1 Escort screen, let me know...

Not a problem at all have them in stock brand new and can do either clear or with a green tint

Sorry i don't quite understand your question, are you after a brand new rubber? or do you have a rubber that you just want swapped over?

Yeah i'm sure something can be worked out but unlike compaines like Novus which have a set minimum price that they won't charge less then(and FYI most screens they price up work out cheaper then their minimum cost so then they just add the rest on to take it up to their minimum) i actually work out a cost for each screen and as i'm sure you can imagine they range in cost quite a bit so if you want a quote just hit me up and i'll see what kind of a deal i can do

Got some tyres put on the Volk wheels

Any auto glazier should be able to do this for you and if they can't then they are in the wrong line of work. You should be able to drop the frame off and they will cut to suit, we do stuff like this all the time for classic cars its hardly a big job

And no you can't cut glass with a sandblaster

Also i would question those prices a little further as there is a big differance in price betwen laminate and toughened

Painted the lip yesterday, gave it a bit of a test fit this afternoon

Well lookie what we got here

Do you still have the t series drumbrake diff? You wouldn't want to part with it would you?

I do still have it but it has no diffhead or axles and still has the nissan brake setup on it so you would need a hydraulic handbrake in order for it to work

Bit working on this when i can, Got my RCA's fitted so front suspension is now complete, also made a new battery clamp and got the battery mounted, radiator is now mounted, sandwich plate is on and is plumbed up to the oil cooler and catch can is now mounted, only little things really but it all adds up

Chin spoiler plz.

Yep thats the plan

And them Hosh g5's? I would give you so much money for them if you ever sold them

I think my brother did actually sell them a while ago

My favourite part is easily the dual oil fillers

Yeah i love the dual filler covers you can't really see in the picture but 1side has has the lettering and holes for the valley cover machined off to make them look more like a pair, i actually only just took them off the Levin the other day since i made them for that back when it was still going to be a race car.

Also, who is your brother?

I'm 4AG_Addict's younger brother

My seats after coming back from patrick auto trimers, they are genuine Recaro SPG-N FIA approved, by far the best fixed back seats i've ever had and i've owned more race seats then i can count


Finally managed to track down some bumpers but the front one only had 1 endcap

Heres how the car looks as of yesterday, we fitted the front suspenion which was AE86 struts made into coilovers using 8kg springs, TRD shocks and Cusco camber plates, swaped the adjustable KE70 lower arms for some AE86 ones, also fitted my TRD shocks to the rear, Also have removed the drum rearend and fitted a factory AE86 disc rearend, oh and i found a endcap to complete my bumpers.


Still need to fit my TRD 2way LSD so need to pull the rearend apart again grrrr why couldn't it arrive before we swapped the rearends over and the car must have been fitted with a k50 before as the driveshaft it came with doesn't fit in the T50 so we will be using a factory AE86 2piece driveshaft

So now the car is fitted with complete AE86 running gear/brakes/suspesion which i'm much happier with as it makes buying replacement parts easier if something breaks rather then having a bunch of mystery stuff in it, basicly we have changed almost everything that was on the car when we got it.

Heres how the engine bay is looking at the moment, we ended up using the factory AE86 radiator instead of the one that came with the car, my sandwich plate arrived on Friday so i can sort the oil cooler out now


Still needs to be wiried up but we have a few complete AE86 ecus and looms so shouldn't be a major, also need to sort exhaust out.

Hello, figured i should join up instead of just using my brother's account all the time and post some info on my car.

I used to have a KP60 with a 4EFTE race car which i sold and brought a very unloved AE86 Levin to turn into my new race car however we took it a bit too far and the car ended up far to nice to turn into a track car so heres where my story begins really.

What i started with

Complete from radiator to diff AE86 engine package



1982 Corolla GL KE70 Rally Car Rolling Body



Car was setup to run a 20v 4age and had quite a few goodies on it:
T series drum rear end with the drums removed and some Nissan rotors and calipers on it, quaife quick rack, bilstein shocks and unknown rally springs, all new bushings, oil cooler, adjustable arms, a cool homemade strut brace, aftermarket gauges, 5point belts, full cage through to the strut towers and is attached to the frame in several places, seam welded body, wilwood brake bias, hydraulic handbrake, surge tank and external fuel pump, all alloy fuel lines and handbrake lines, moded crossmember and all waterlines to suit a 20v, a rather large radiator and a 1piece driveshaft

Body is very tidy for something that has been gravel bashed for the last few years, still orignal paint and i've found no rust in it.

Part of the deal was that i had to return the rally wheels and tyres to the person i brought the car off so first job was to chuck whatever wheels we had sitting round on it, oh and i washed it too

Pictures of the interior after i cleaned all the dirt/dust out of it

Fuel setup in the boot


The first week we had the car we fitted the 4age and T50, the modded crossmember was poos so we used the factory AE86 crossmember we had and a TE71 gearbox crossmember, also took the rally suspension out of the rear and replaced it with TRD 5.5kg springs and no shocks but that didn't really matter at the time, at this stage we were still working out what to do with the front suspension

The black bonnet on the car was off a twin headlite model so it fitted like shit, i ended up buying a complete front end even tho i only wanted the bonnet but hey its nice to have spares, looked much better with the right bonnet after i painted it but it still needed some bumpers
