Popular Post toymaker Posted June 10, 2017 Popular Post Report Share Posted June 10, 2017 I have bought a poorly treated, unloved 1981 KE70 Toyota Corolla, with the vision of restoring and also upgrading it to the 3SGE Beams Black Top. I want to set the car up so it can be taken to the track and also used as a show car. I have bought a 1999 Toyota Altezza with a 6 speed manual box and the donating Beams engine. Will post photos and discussion as the project goes on, please feel free to ask questions 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dstaar Posted February 11, 2018 Report Share Posted February 11, 2018 Photos are to big to upload but they are all uploaded on the photobucket album, we have stripped the car and sound deadning off the floor around the tranny tunnel. The engine has been stripped down and we have pulled the brake booster and pedal assembly out of a later model corolla. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dstaar Posted February 11, 2018 Report Share Posted February 11, 2018 With some help from a hammer and grinder the bigger brake booster fits and a little bit of work has started on paint stripping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dstaar Posted February 11, 2018 Report Share Posted February 11, 2018 Purchased my self a new daily to work on whilst the ke70 is being built, not oldschool but a fun daily driver, 99' r34 rb25de manual sedan, fixed a exhaust leak today while the toymaker kept working on wiring and making a engine hook so we can lift the engine up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
