1974 Corolla KE35 project

[alamzzz]

You Can Look For KE70/XT130 Suspension/Brakes Stuff And Use Them....It Should Match With KE35..You Need To Look For Them And Make SOme Alters To Fit And Work....

Goo.d Luck With That

Slam sir @ser_gre
I have spoken to my mechanic about the suspension n brakes u told me. But he said we will go for Cressida one which will be easy compatible with my car.

Is he right? What would you suggest on this ?

[alamzzz]

Slam Sufian,

It's ok brother not an issue yes for sure we will meet up and will visit the car, u might be able to give me a good advice on ur physical presence.

For sure I will keep ur advice in mind, which can help me in good road grip n shape

And inshallah I will meet u on ur arrival to Rawalpindi.

[Hassan1991]

Slam Hassan,
Thank u so much for this big favour, at least it could help me in market price difference.

Uptil so far the things I m looking for are as follow:

1 - Window Mirror passenger side with shape of " ) "

2 - Side rear view mirrors ( as u can see in the car pics above, which fit on the side of engine hood)

3 - rear brake lights (as mine was already broken when I bought )

4 - as sir @ser_gtr recommend me KE70/XT130 suspensions/ brakes (what is the best way to check them ? And from where I can buy it easily Rawalpindi/Lahore/Peshawar ?

I have long list don't want to disturb ur life coz of me n my project. This will be more then enough for me

If u need anything from my side as a brother plz don't hesitate to ask me on first place

Thanks again brother

Don't mention it brother
For brakes and suspension I will say peshawar will be a better place but I will search for them and Brother can you send me some reference pics of side mirrors it would be good.
Don't bother brother just tell me the things you need know no problem at all,I'm free now a days and as I told you before my corolla is also in restoring process to "ma khajal khavar hota rehta hon specially bilal gunj ma"
And Brother you didn't tell me your requirements for rims,I had talk to my friend may we can find some hollow rims.

I Doubt That Will Be Easily Compatible Compared To KE70/XT130..It Will Be Much More Diff As Cressida Is Much More Bigger....It Won't Be Easy Fit I Guess....And May Need Too Much Alters

Do Your Homework And Research Before Going For It....

@alamzzz brother I visited bilal gunj
Sorry but can't find any side mirrors of 74 corolla.Side mirrors shopkeeper are saying "uska side mirror aata hi nae alteration kr ka dala hota haien" I said him koe arrange nae ho jaien gy he said No......while mirrors on the hood are universal type means any can be fit.
For suspension ke70 corolla back hub cost 7k and corona 4k whereas I told him about what we are upto so he recommended corona and they are also less expensive then Ke70 corolla
Both fits in same way means neither corolla nor corona hubs needs much alteration to fit

[mishaqkhan1]

Salam mishaq, Hassan & Sufian

Thanks for ur reply guys, I appreciate allot all of u and ur interest, I will upload pics in afternoon from my office inshallah.

Yes of course I will try to burn my tyres on swift corners and long drag And I tried to change my Pcd from 114 to 100 but there was an issue in fixing the springs coz I don't want to do alteration in body regarding shocks n springs in side engine bay. But I will defy go for hollow/deep dish rims coz I m gonna alter the wings/fenders and both rear tyres with extra body kit on tyres from 2.5 - 3 inch from both side. Which will increase the width and grip along with hollow rims.

I will share my uptodate pix and want to share video of first engine kick in after installation but I don't think I can share video here with you guys.

Where do u guys belong to any one from Rawalpindi? We can meet at one place at garage to see the car physically and might u guys can give me a better advice rather then on forum I would love to see u guys, and drinks on me lol

Hey bro sorry for the late reply, no problem man, i don't have any practical experience with Toyota engine swaps but will try to share whatever knowledge i've gained from the internet and various forums with you. :). Yes i do live in rawalpindi , would love to see your car in person , im also on a chase after mechanics and parts nowadays for my vw (rebuilding it) so will surely visit you as im in pindi most of the time. Though P.m me the location. Rest pindi is a great place to get japanese classic rim's . I myself have sourced a set of hollow Rs Watanabes and SSR mesh both from rawalpindi so dont lose hope, a great set might by lying somewhere in a corner. Go for bigger brakes may it be cressida's or ke70's. Although the cressida brakes ive seen people use with 1jz,v8 setups in pakistan. What car did you get your LSD from?

[yankmyyoda]

Yara this build so far is fantastic. It's almost making me want to go out and start a project I've been thinking about for a while.

This is fantastic. Man make this car yours. Alter things while keeping to the original as much as possible. That's what I'd do. It should be a wonderful ride.

slaam mishaq,

its ok, i was out of town aswell from last weekend. yes for sure we will go together and discuss the project.

VW BEETLE is the first car i want to go for project, but people told me not to go for that car coz u wont be able to find the parts of this car which made me to back off from this car. and i would love to c your car and had soo many ideas at that time to do with beetle. and this is one of my favourite car as nothing is famous as beetle made his market since 1960s.

i have searched every place in pindi but unfortunately couldnt find anything catchy which suits with my car. but still i would love to know if you can help me out in this aswell.

and about LSD, i didnt buy LSD, my mechanic made my rear tube and convert this in to LSD, bhut didnt drove my car yet. i hope he did his physics rite and would get the results on driving.

my car is in G10, and if you can share your cell no with me so i will give u call and we will go together to that place, inshallah

and thanks again for helping me out and for your sincere advices

As I said not to mention brother.
I think alteration is needed but very little and as Sir gtr suggest to me not to go for 4 wheels disc's because it needs a lot of work,modifications and 4 wheels disc's without ABS are dangerous too.

n i searched for so many cars when i was looking for project, but its really hard to find KE35, but u can make good road machine on mark 2, coz the engine bay got extra space and u can easily make that car a beast.

Can you enlist the modifications which are required for 4 wheel disc brakes? As I am also planning to go for 4 wheel disc brakes with ABS.

[Hassan1991]

You need proportional valves,pipe lines,discs that fits on rear it needs a lot of work.
Further @ser_gtr sir can guide you

If You Find A Whole Complete Set Including Prop. Valve Line Set Hand Brake Cable And Complete Caliper Kit..Then Go For 4 Wheel Disc...Otherwise Avoid It And Upgrade Your Fronts With Better One... Half Available Stuff In 4 Wheel Discs Conversion Will Lead You Nowhere But Troubles....!

ABS Was Not Introduced In These Models So Better Avoid ABS Unless You Completely Have Uncut Set With Module And Wiring And Know How To Do It...
