My Ae71 Rolla

[Ashley86]

Alright I thought I'd post a little info and whatnot about my corolla, I think it's pretty cool but I'm not sure if anyone else whould agree with me.

 

Here are some pros, cons and some of my plans:

Pros:

• 7" X 15" superlights
  
• Vortex racing exurst
  
• It's matt black
  
• Big drift wing
  
• It's low (choped the front springs and put king springs in the back)
  
• Flaird guards
  
• Sony MP3 stereo
  
• Madhouse JDM Deep Chin Lip
  

Cons:

• The wing is too big (cops pulled me up and said it has to be within the body line or be removed)
  
• It has a fair bit of rust
  
• The cut springs make it bumpy to drive
  
• Engine is a 4AC
  
• It's a 3 speed auto
  
• It needs a wash
  
• Paint needs some touching up (Spray can job)
  

coming soon...

• Monza bucket seat
  
• Tinted windows
  
• Simpson Themed Personlised Plates
  
• Propper paint job
  
• Full suspension setup
  
• New more powerful engine (I'm not sure what I'll get yet)
  

And here it is:

Soooo what you're saying is: Its rusty, full of bog, automatic, the suspension is rooted, the paint is poo and it has holes in the bootlid where someone has attached an ironing board.

 

Myself I'd probably start again with a better one and put this thing out the back for parts.

 

At the very least I'd ditch the wing... all its doing is attracting police and creating drag.

buy a better one with manual tranny and stick the rims and front lip thing on it.

Welcome to rollaclub. don't mind these boys, people just call it like it is most days. Have a good read and search on rollaclub, see what you can do with her.

I notice there is no 5 speed there in the wish list. Stoked on the auto? What are you building it for exactly? What engine are you thinking about? What are you thinking about doing with the suspension setup? First of all, are you building a cruiser or a racer?

[Jono]

if everything on that list was done properly he would be spending up to $10k so it would be worth starting with a better base.

[Ashley86]

Yeah, the rust is only really bad at the back under the boot but other then that it's not too bad, I was thinking about just getting a 4age, so I'll see what I can find, I've only got my auto's though so I can't drive a manual yet, I am working on it though. It's really just for cruising and know know the wing seems crazy and everyone does keep telling me to take it off, but I just love the looks I get when driving down the road.

..... And if the State Traffic Branch see that wing, you're off to court, never mind a ticket. And the next time you get pulled over, it's bye-bye to the car for 48 hours.

 

Don't forget to get your replacement seat blue-plated.

ummm what auto boxes go good behind 4age

i'd say get ur manuel licence

[78_7kRolla]

Mmmm i like those wheels. My suggestion is find a better base (a manual one) and start working on that. Once you can drive a manual transfer all the shit you like from this car onto it. My guess is the finished product will be heaps better. Good luck mate.

It looks okay on the outside, but it's certainly not exactly pristine. Manuals are much more fun to drive, chuck that auto right out, and if you're going to 4AGE it get a better base as everyone is saying because you'll find it will be hard to sell it.

 

Nice rims and lip though.

Apart from that, not bad for a beater.
