My Saloon: School/ AutoCross Rolla!

Some better brakes would be nice.. altough, in the courses that we normally race they wont do much difference.

Its not worth doing if im just thinking of the autocross..
the cost will be around 3000$ ++++ for everything i want, thats just too expensive for me when im at school

I celebrated 1500km aniversairy with the Rolla today!
We shared a ToppRis (Top-Rice in english) chocolate toghether
She got some good 99Oktane "Racefuel" and a POD filter. Really noticed the difference on the fuel Pod filter just makes sound :p
Ordered new rotor and distrubitor cap, the one thats on there now is busted pretty bad

I'm looking at KE70's.. damn, would love to have one.. All original, some small jap rims and a tuned blacktop with some megasquirt or somthing!
That's my dream car right now, going to build one when i start to work again after school

nice to hear vegard..
the 99 RON should help squeeze abit more power out.

Your 3sge engine, how much is it good for N/A?
Just dreaming of the Ke70.. :p

oh its LOADS of fun... i can guarantee you wont be dissapointed if you decide to go down the 3sge route..

ask richard about it, he has a lighter car with 4age 20v ST and i beat him by about 2-3 car lengths in about 1/4 mile

okay, do you know how much power a 3sge can produce N/A?, lets say the budget is 4000$

i know some that have been taken to 220bhp n/a thats not with serious modding...

heres a little info on the rev 2 3sge (140 from factory taken upto 255bhp)

Would be soo nice to have a good Ke70 with a 3sge beams engine.. I think they are 200bhp original
In a couple of years i guess! For now i'm happy with the rolla.. and then maybe get some cheap as rwd so i can drift in the snow.. altoug, i have my Audi 200 20vt, thats good in the winter aswell.. Ah, i have to many cars that i want

yeah the blacktop Beams 3sge (found in the altezza rs200) was 210bhp from factory and it was an inline engine, so perfect engine for a rwd car. the redtop Beams 3sge (found in the mr2 & celica) was 200bhp

Another fun day with the rolla
400km of twisty crazy norwegian road. About halfway my brakes stopped working completlely.. Smoke pouring from the front brakepads and the disc's are blue..
Two hard brakedowns from 170kph to 70/60kph, and then they where gone

Had full throttle up some steep twisty roads. Climbing around 1000meter above sea.. The exhaust under the car was glowing like neon i heard from the car behind Opened the bonnet and the header was glowing red
Drove with a friend in a Porsche 944, i had no problems following him.. He thought i had changed the engine "You have changed your engine to that 4age engine you are always talking about right?" "nah, its still the standard 1.6"
I just love these 114bhp, so much fun compared to anything else
Especially a mates Audi 90 Quattro.. 136bhp, but compared to the Rolla it feels like 70bhp...

Ahh man it definitely sounds like some fun!

IMPRESSIVE!!! I salute you!

Ironic?

I'm just using this thread as some kind of blog
So if you are reading this thread, there will be some useless info

best blog Ive ever read lol ...and Ive found lots of useful info from here lol (like corollas have bad brakes lol)

haha! Good to hear!
Will try to do something proper to it soon, rather than just changing the wheels
Found a grille i might want. The same as Knite on here i think.. With extra lights..

Do you guys like them?

Do you still have your old lights (the same ones I have) that you bought for your old wagon corolla? I dont think you ever installed them did you? You should install them in your new corolla if you still have them

I like the grille with extra fog lights

^^^ he likes all kinds of lights.......

Yeah, like you can talk, look at all the lights on the front of yours!!!

They're called hella grills iirc? I think they look so cool haha.

Yeap i do still have them, but they are not my cup of tea on this car i guess. Want this car to be almost standar
Think i will get these hella lights then I think i like them

They are rare enough, get them.!!!

Note: this guy say the chrome ebay header that i have is too big.. and then he bought another original header from europe...i have this header.

wow that is a nice write up..

will give it a detailed read when i have some time on my hands

Is it easy to break in to a corolla?

I work in a small bicycle shop now that i go to school. So my car stood around a corner hid away. When i was finished at work today, i saw that the rear window was open, and everything was put on the passenger seat. Some catalogues,some interiorwipes and the papers of the car. I had around 15$ in change in the ashtray, they where gone. Nothing else was touched.. No harm to the car.
