My AE71

[ae71neo]

Hi,

I've been on here a while so i thought i had better add my car to this section.

This is my AE71 Corolla. This pic quite old and was when i first got it.

[ae71neo]

And another one. (I would put them all in the same reply but my net is f***ed)

[ae71neo]

This is how it is atm. Pedders sports ryder shocks and springs, whiteline panhard.

[ae71neo]

Hopefully, all of this will be in on sunday :D

http://members.lycos.co.uk/tega71/IMG_1432_small.jpg

[ae71neo]

And i've had these for a while, but now that my suspension is going in i can finally use them. They are 15x7 +27 (pretty gay offset) Buddy clubs. BTW, my complete pedders setup will be for sale soon.

PHAT ae71 LOVE IT i Have one that is a spirit model 5 speed and i cant find another one of its kind its an 84 model and soon will have a 4age in it and also lovels super low springs in it and a 2 way lsd

[Kitten-Trueno]

Looks good. Good luck with her http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/smile.gif .

[crazy86]

You should be able to use those wheels with just a 3-5mm spacer, unless the coilover spring comes too low, in which case it weill need more. I was able to run 15x7 25mm offset wheels, until i put helper springs on my coilovers. Now i run zero offset, which looks pretty sweet

[ae71neo]

Thanks for the comments http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/smile.gif

I use 5mm spacers when the standard struts are in and it fills the gaurds pretty well. But i havent tried with coilovers and neg camber yet. Hopefully they are alright.

[slide86]

sweet ae71 man
should look tuff once the coilovers are in
i like the wheels that are on it now.

keep us updated

[poh_86]

nice set of rims,
what are you going to do with your old ones?? http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/biggrin.gif

looks great man, i sooo wish my paint was as good as yours.

[ae71neo]

Thanks for all the positive comments, really appreciate it http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/smile.gif

The wheels that are on it now are 14x6.5 +3 offset. ATM they have 195/60's on them, because they were free http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/laugh.gif

Well, i only have a pair of the buddy clubs so im planning to run them on the front with the 14's on the back. Going to try and get some 185/60's for them.

More pics tomorrow night when the coilovers are in. The old stuff is pretty much out, so after breakfast tomorrow i can concentrate on installing.

Called it a night, can't get the massive nut off the the steering arm off http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/angry.gif

[RedSuns]

that car is as we say in my house... uber sheek

[ae71neo]

Well after many drama, the coilovers are finally in! Great christmas present :D The rims on the front are 14x6.5 +3 running 195/60. I chucked a 5mm spacer in behind that aswell, it looked phat but the tyres were rubbing on the inner gaurd plastic crap. So i have taken the spacers out but when i get 185/60 G3's soon, ill throw the spacers back on to see how that goes. The rear has not been done yet as you will no doubt be able to tell. Should be doing that tomorrow.

So here are the pics..

I have tried to put the buddy clubs on with 5mm spacer but the tyre just rubs on the bottom spring nut. I guess i need bolt on spacers then http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/sad.gif

last one for now.

haha had some drama this morning getting out of my driveway. Its one of those bastard ones at a angle of about 50-60 degrees. Reversing out of it my inside wheel was in the air, so just spinning, and having a open diff at the moment, it didn't wanna move lol.

Ok, this is the last one...

No i meant the p1's on permenantly. It looks lower in the back now? Very nice!

[Gilly]

nice ride mate, i had the same drama with my gemini panelvan with the whole driveway thing. had to pile 3 people in the back so i could move it!!! http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/tongue.gif

[ae71neo]

Yeah having the P1's on the back is growing on me. They are only on there at the moment as they are the only rims i have that will fit on the back lol. The back is as high as the shocks can go, its just legal, like 105mm or something. The front will look a little lower when i get 185/60 tyres.

I love driving it so much now, it grips the road like shit to a blanket, its awesome!

Thanks man. Yeah at first i thought the rear was a bit to low, but i like it now http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/biggrin.gif Just gotta set the panhard rod today and i might able to fit some spacers behind the p1s as they do sit in a bit.

Took it for a wheel alignment today at dads work.

Camber: -2 degrees

Castor: Maxxed out at +2.7 degrees avg both sides

Toe: Neutral

Before the alignment, the toe was out by a total of -18.7mm. No wonder it was so fag to drive.

It wasnt that big, the lancers bumper took alot of the damage.

[Sprinterboy]

god bless new cars with crumple zones!

[xolent]

so you rear ended him?

if so that sucks man.... looks like you'll be cancelling some stuff for your corolla to pay back the bloke

Yeah i did. So pissed http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/angry.gif

[xolent]

what type of bloke was he?

just offer him some dosh and reciept and make sure you get a statement saying that if he accepts the mulah you are not involved with him no more whatsoever

lol i'm dodgy

[sic86]

Damn, you will be a fault. Do you even have insurance for the ae71?

Cheers

[sic86]

Was it just a rear bumper that was damaged? New lancer rear bumper about $160 and $70 to paint

Cheers

[ae71neo]

Yeah i have insurance, but my excess is like $1100. Mainly rear bumper but he said he couldnt open his boot. He is a mate of mine so hopefully he can help me out by accepting cash for the repairs lol.

[sic86]

Must of been a fair bang as by the photos it looks like you bent the bonnet back

Cheers

[ae71neo]

Yeah it was bent back more than that when it happened, i bent it back down at the scene.

Some good news, after a bit of bashing the bonnet now closes! So i really just need a headlight and indicator and i can drive it again. Rang local wreckers...nothing http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/sad.gif

I thought the local places would have parts to, but i think the guy that i hit is mates with a corolla wrecking yard, so i should be alright. Just need them before sunday.

Oh yeah, whats this part called?

http://members.lycos.co.uk/tega71/oghg3.jpg

its called a beaver panel... well at least thats what its called on datto's..

that sucks man, atleast the damage doesnt look too bad. Goodluck.

[.wolfwood]

man who put your coilovers together, did you do it yourself?

[ae71neo]

No, truenosedan did. AJPS!!!

Anyway after picking up a pretty much complete AE71 today for $50 from Jason, i think he is CHA54 on these forums, i have started to put poo back together. I would be driving with the bumper on but i have no f***ing idea where dad put the bumper bracket bolts! http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/angry.gif Don't you just hate that!

Yeah got the sticker off justin at nebo run. White wheels have been on since the suspensions been in, so maybe half a month?

[phrostbyte]

Looks nice man, bad luck about the accident, I know how it feels, I just wrote off my SECOND ke70 3 days ago... Got a white AE71 coming my way tomorrow to swap the 4age into, so should be all good.

Grab some colour match spraypaint from autobarn for that quarter panel, I think its $26.95 and they mix it up perfectly and pressurepack it for you. Also if you need a front grille, I have about 4 spares, so throw me some postage dollars and I'll send it up to ya.

That bit you were pointing out before is called the stone guard by the way http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/tongue.gif.

Cheers,
Kev.

[ae71neo]

haha i have 3 different names for it now, beaver panel, stone gaurd and front valance.

Yeah i will try and paint that panel the original colour, but just gonna paint the bonnet and stone gaurd black for the time being.

Thanks for the grille offer but i have 3 here anyway http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/tongue.gif

Bad luck about your KE...

[JohnO]

how do you find the suspension setup? and who supplied it

[ae71neo]

The front is excellent, makes turn in that much better. And while cornering, more input on the steering wheel actually makes you turn more, not just understeer lol. Sits quite flat cornering, on a smooth road its awesome. Bumpy road the back can be a little bouncy. But that will be fixed when i put new shocks and springs in it soon.

Planning on taking out to Morgan Park in the nearish future, its should go nicely there.

[ae71neo]

Oh sorry, AJPS (truenosedan on the forums) supplied the fronts. I got the rear my self.

[ae71neo]

Well, got the qoutes back from the lancer guy. $3500-$3900. http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/blink.gif

Apparantly he needs new rear quarters and even tailights..? wtf, i didnt even come close to the tail lights! So that means i pay my excess of $1100, and let insurance company deal with it....f***.

Anyway, my car has been running a bit crap lately, breaking down under load and missing while idling. I checked the plugs on poo, they seem to be alright, so im gonna swap the dizzy cap and leads from the yellow car to this one and see if it fixes it.

[BouNCE-86]

Sorry to hear about your accident man......! http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/sad.gif

Well i swapped the cap and leads over and it has seemed to have worked. Took it for a quick strap (in the wet http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/biggrin.gif) and it seemed to rev out to 6,000 fine and while idling, it was smooth.

[ae71neo]

Ok, i have a tyre/wheel dilemma.

Need some opinions on what i should run.

1. Full set of the mesh 14's. Rear gaurds will need to be rolled. Running 185/60 tyres

2. Full set of 15's. Keep buddys on the rear, find some cheap 15's for the front and run 195/50's all round. (i wanted to buy the white watanabe style ones josh wass elling but to late http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/sad.gif ) Means no need for gaurd love.

3. Run the rims how they are now with 185/60s on the front and 195/50s on the back. No gaurd mods needed.

The guards will be modded later on down the track when i can afford 15x8 - offset rims.

Just wondering what you guys reckon. Thanks.

[v-tec]

rolled guards are hot, u know you want to


first one sounds pretty cool

[ae86 drifter]

nice ride dude.my ae71 will look that good one day

[ae71neo]

Or option 4. Buddy clubs on front with 25mm spacer and 14s on back with rolled gaurds. Most expensive way as i have to buy tyres, spacers and gaurd rolling.

thanks ae86 drifter.

[ae86 drifter]

those P1s look hot as

[ae71neo]

New tyres on the front, and 14's polished. 185/60/14 Potenza GIII's.

and...

[Course_Out]

The polished 14's look awesome, I'd stick with those mates (not as hot as my 13 inch Cheviot Turbos though, haha, not)

[ae86 drifter]

yeah whats the tyres like

[ae71neo]

breno: only had them on for a day, they feel great though

course: yeah, worth the effort i reckon! Took like 4 hours just for 2 rims :S

[sinister86]

Hey just wondering how you polished the wheels: polisher, drill buffer-bit or sandpaper (what grit)? I've tried polishing stuff, never got a finish like that. Good work.

[Gilly]

sooooooo shiny!!

[ae71neo]

Sandpaper first, 240-360-400-600-800-1200-1500 grits in order.

Then used a cutting wheel, then a polish wheel.

[slide86]

the tyres are excellent
best slide tyres for the back of a hachi (or ke70/ae71)

they grip real well and a 4age can spin them easy.

best tyres ive run on my car so far.

[ae71neo]

You drift on these??

[MARKE70]

Holy shit.
congrats man that just looks so so so so so fuckin awesome
super neat conversion too - GO KAIZEN

[selk]

how did u find the 20v conversion... easy to put into the ae71 ?

[slydar]

its fairly straight forward.



the only "hicup" specific to the 71 was the heater feed (from the heater core) on the ex' side. although it looks the same as ae86 it is actually orientated slightly differantly and interferes with the CAS, so the cas cover had to be modified slightly, and does make the actual fitting of the engine a little more tricky as it tends to foul on this point and makes it hard to seat the engine on the mounts.

70s are differant again in this respect as the feed in question points down. this might actually make it easier, though i cant say that for sure, we have only done 1 20v 70, a beige one (used to be my car/have a 16v 4age) which doesnt run a heater at all.

everything else works as it does in an ae86, including a fully opertaing heater ect with or 20v rwd water kit.

as for wiring 70s/and 71s differ slightly from 86s. even aus 86s have an efi circuit (though un used in the aus version obviously)

in travis's car we used an OEM toyota relay box for the efi, thermo fan and fuel pump circuits (on the passenger side strut tower) this keeps the wiring looking neat and almost OE, rather than a bunch of ugly generic relays tec screwed to the body which is common in conversions.

[SLO-030]

Nice as dude.....

Im planning to drop a ST 20v in mine around jan.

Hopefully itll look as good as yours...

Go check my out in the members rides aswell its under project c shizzle

what brand did you use?
i made the mistake of buying that septone car filler stuff that you mix yourself... big mistake

[Teddy]

Hey Trav

Lookin hot.

Just for the record, you need to piss those foam filter off asap; as your motor will be feeling it in the mid to long run. Foam filters dont filter down that low (in terms of micron's), and any moisture that gets attraced into them... well, lets just say they are a big sponge. I doubt anyone here would want to put a damp sponge down there manifold, and expect the motor to like it & benifite from it. K&N are expensive, and are the goods. http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/wink.gif

those rotors look sex as well

[DRFTPG]

nice rotas and gilly spec bumpers FTW

[ae71neo]

I got the JDM brakes on. But i think they might need a kit, they bind on the rotors with no pedal pressure. Which is gay. I might give them another bleed and see how they work after that.

[ae71neo]

Brakes still binding on the pads after a fresh rebuild. The pistons stay out and dont go back in. Even after bleeding etc. Maybe it cos the pads are low? But they arent that low...

This is shitting me now...

[stouty]

This car is going to so fking hot with a full set of MKII's on it i cant wait to see it.

[Gilly]

pics of pads

[ae71neo]

http://members.lycos.co.uk/tega71/pic-00581.jpg

Sorry its off the phone, but you get the picture...

They are a little better now, i can spin them without wheels on, but they are still rubbing pretty hard on the pads and not really free spinning how they used to.

[Gilly]

don't mean to insult your skills http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/tongue.gif is it possible that the wheel bearings have been done up too tight? i used to see that a lot in my old shop.

i can't see a pic of the pads, but really can't see how that would be doing it anyway

[ae71neo]

Nar they arent, i can spin the rotors easy without any brakes on there. I just put the wheels on and took it for a quick drive, it feels as if the rear is doing nearly all the work, but then again there are marks on the front rotors where i have been braking. I'll jack the front up again and see how they spin now after a drive.

[ae71neo]

14x8 -10s on the left 14x7.5 -12s on the right.

http://members.lycos.co.uk/tega71/pic-0067.jpg

Also got the power steering arms on, poo now has lock! Gonna have to do some guard bashing, but ill wait till the MKIIs go on.

I also put some new brake pads in, its a little better, but rear is still locking first. Fronts are biting but as i took it for a drive to bed them in, and you could smell them for about in hour in my garage lol.

[deNs]

Words cannot describe how awesome the dish/offset is on those wheels. Quick, get some rubber on them so we can all see it on the car http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/smile.gif

Dude! they are actually the hottest wheels ever! 14's ftw. You gonna flare the rears?

[ae71neo]

Im thinking about getting the pair of 7.5's cleaned up so they match the 8's.

Yeah im gonna have to flare the rears for the 8s to fit. Thinking of actually getting some decent rubber all round in either 185/60 or 195/60. Something like Dunlop DZ02s, Toyo R888s or Bridgestone RE55s.
