[_FNQ_rolla_]

Hi all,

 

I have been lurking around most of the Toyota Corolla forums for a while now, just reading what is out there before deciding to become a member. I have put together a few tuff cars in the past but I have never posted any of the builds on the net, but I would like to share with the members on Rollaclub the build of my little Corolla.

 

The build I would like to share is of my 1 owner KE35, I have been looking to find a good one for the past 2 years. The KE35 I picked up was owned by a little old lady that had all of the log books and had a full service history from the day she bought it from the Toyota dealer.

underneath the box where you type is another box titled "Attachments", in the right hand side of that box is a browse button (which you use to search your computer for the picture you want to upload), the upload button (upload's the selected picture onto the server, i think), then the drop down menu abover the browse/upload buttons contains the photo's you've uploaded, click on each of them to the picture to your post. The best way to do it that i've found is to label each picture otherwise you'll double up.

Is that what you wanted to know?

FOUL, you can,t tell us about it the leave it blank, go find a 5th grader to show you how, if i can do you can, HURRY

[Redwarf]

I'll lend you my five year old. He's better at that kind of stuff than I am!

i use photobucket :laff:

[_FNQ_rolla_]

This story started 2 years back, as I was on the hunt for a clean KE35 (I even had mates in different cities looking for one).

 

A mate in Brissy found a one owner, very tidy KE35 with only 57 thousand on the clock in late January, but due to work commitments I was unable to pick it up until Easter.

 

Well they say a picture says a thousand words (so here are 9 000 words )

 

P.S. thanks for the tips about posting pictures and what is the go with photobucket?

love the color, actually looks simliar to what i was thinking of painting my coupe

do you know what the colors called?

[curly]

Looks great, keep the pics coming and let us know the plans for it

[_FNQ_rolla_]

Sorry I do not have a clue as to what the colour is called as the old girl had it painted a few years back for her granddaughter but the car was not good enough for her.

 

As for plans, I’ve got big plans for it but for now it lives in the shed and comes out for a leisurely drive on the weekends if the weather is good.

 

Speaking of weather I need to replace the front and rear windscreens and boot rubbers, because they are hard and leak. Where do you get new replacement rubbers as I have seen some on Ebay (not sure of their quality) and there is a place on there called “Phil’s Rotarys” or are all Ebay rubbers the same. Would like to hear where you have got your KE replacement rubbers, are they any good or would you avoid them.

 

If you have found where to get them from could you let me know some names of businesses and phone numbers.

 

As this thing progresses there will be more pictures and a bit of a write up.

+1 would like feedback on the rubbers aswell,

 

apprently the asian rubbers crack/leak very quickly! phils rotarys ones are the way to go

Today I machined the block to fit some oil squirters, using the milling machine.

Here are a couple of pictures.

[_FNQ_rolla_]

What model are these Skyline calipers off, as I got them from a “break up sale” and she does not have a clue and neither do I.

 

They are both cleaned up now. The one on the right was how I got them.

 

Just curious as to what they are off.

[Evan G]

they look r32 ISH

[Taz_Rx]

Yeah they're R32/33 Sumitomo 4 pots. Pretty much the same as the S4/5 RX7 ones but they have nissan written on them instead of Mazda. :P

[_FNQ_rolla_]

they look r32 ISH

 

 

Hey its been a while,

 

But i do believe that they are R32 (was kind of hoping that they were R33's ) but i will work something out with them :)
