  1. Thanks for the pink boyfriend Brett! The sunburn is mighty sexy. Glad to see you lot had a good day.
  2. You forgot to black out your numberplate in the after-pics :hmm:
  3. And here I was thinking they were released with a 12A. I think the reason why they were gutless was not because of horsepower (they made more than the Holden 202), but because the total lack of torque. :hmm: I just can't remember the figures. :)
  4. Try having a look at where and how all the linkage's mate up to the box. It's quite possible that any 5 speed that came with that series engine (is it a 'k' engine?) will fit. I know that with kingswood's, you could change it from 3 speed (with column shift) to a 4 speed and keep the column shift. All the linkage's bolted on. So I'd guess just have a look at the box, what sorta engine you have, etc. Hope this helps. Sorry I can't help you with your diff question
  5. That's from The Oldcorolla FAQ Hope it helps
  6. Not sure if it'll help, but there's a bit of info on diff's in The Oldcorollas FAQ. the oldcorollas faq
  7. i've had the same problem. Tried all the spray's, nothing worked. but after a while it stopped.
  8. Try the FAQ, i'm pretty sure the power figure are in there for both the 4k and the 4a. or somewhere around here. I have seen it :)
  9. Well, I'm not in a great hurry to get the paint done as the cars not going yet. (still waiting on that phone call!) Still gotta get the interior sorted. only 18 hours? I would've thought it was more like 20! :)
  10. I have seen the way Thomo works, there's no way he would have time to spray my car. Thats why I didn't go to him. That and he's a mechanic, I didn't know he could spray. I believe the reason why Trendact was calling you "out of area member" is because this is A.C.T. part of RollaClub, and you said you was "ain't a local." I do thank you for your input. And yes, if I did know someone that could do it for me, I would. But I haven't lived here all that long, therefore I know only a handful of people. I have called around, cheapest quote was $4000+. I don't have that kinda money. I think the easiest way to gain entry to the "stick up for each other" club is I think you would have to live in the Canberra/ACT region. :cool: Worked for me. :)
  11. Hey guys, I read on cah for comments thread that there was talk of t-shirts, I was thinkin of throwin some on my chick friends for a lil free advertising :) they're going to summernats anyways so I thought I could help out. What do you think? AMY
  12. Report him, you have done all the hard yards trying to get your licence and some prick (who probably doesn't like young drivers) is trying to keep you off the road? Stick it to him. I know that in vic you can get booked for driving 10kph under the speed limit with no probable cause and for 6kph over (3kph for speed gun/camera calibration and 3kph leeway). Dunno what it is in the ACT as I haven't been booked (yet)
  13. Cheap would be around the $1000-1500 mark. Only 1 panel needs a massage, the rest are good and straight
  14. I've got 2 ke70 sedans, and both have factory am/radio (mono), no tape deck
  15. Are they meaning the 500 mile race? Because I can't find info anywhere that says that a corolla won any of the endurance races. Or are they meaning the Easter meet?
  16. Top Fuelers make approx 7000 HP. And you really can't compare a jet to a drag car as one uses thrust and the other uses traction, they are in completly different categories. Well, at least I think they are
  17. Does anyone know any panelbeaters/spraypainters in this area that are really CHEAP? I want my "new" ke70 looking smick, but I'm pov. thanks Phil
  18. Is it the same for ke70's? And what are they sewn onto? Mine has nothing at all
  19. I found it comes out easier with the steering wheel off, nothing has to come off on an angle. Only know this because I had to change the ignition barrel at the same time. Stupid roadworthy certificates :2thumbs: :n:
  20. Phil crashed it... Been givin' us trouble ever since! Which is why we're buyin a new one! AMY.
  21. Hi I'm Amy - philbas better half :) - I don't know much about much except that our damn carolla is where all my money goes and we're getting another one! So if 'philba' comes on and says anything stupid, well its probably me hehe. Just :( me and everyone will be happy. Just thought I'd warn ya. Cheers. AMY. P.S these emoticons are SO COOL!
  22. Which equals 17-18 thou. :P Cool, thanks heaps :P
  23. Sorry for this REALLY stupid, but I can't find info anywhere (tried search, faq, google, etc). I want to know what the points gap should be for a 4k in a ke70? Currently, it's on about 5 thou, and I know that is not right. Sorry again for the stupid question. Can I use the excuse that I'm blonde? thanks
  24. I kinda need another alternator. Mines putting out about 12.5V, maybe less now. It's getting harder to start every time. :P Any spares for a resonable price? thanks
  25. I know that this is kinda off topic and I am sorry if it's too farr off Cos the V6 was till in development when Holden decided to pull the plug on the ol' trusty 202, and they needed something to fill the gap for a couple of years. Holden did look into keeping the RB30, but it was too expensive to get someone else to build an engine for them. But now they're not using that old engine either, now it's a 3.6L 60-degree DOHC V6. Granted, it is underpowered when compared to smaller capacity engine (even the new toyota V6 makes more with les capacity) OK, time for me to get off my high horse, sorry if I pissed anyone off
