1993 JDM Toyota Corolla AE-100 SE-L Restoration

After a search of almost 5 months I finally found "GRAMPS"(the corolla :older_man:) at a village in Zaida, Sawabi, KPK. The car was bought from auction by the first owner in 2014 and obviously time and atmosphere took a toll on it as it has been more than 25 years since it rolled off the Toyota factory Osaka, Japan. After it's birth the car made it somehow to Afghanistan where it was used and then seized by customs when it came to Pakistan and then auctioned after the department and government f…

Shukriya sir.
I was a silent reader of your project from the start.
To me it was a unique one because you managed to get some rare accessories i.e electric seats, Wooden trim etc.
My younger brother is fan of you project.

Any idea how much and where to purchase an entire maroon interior (Seats, Dashboard, floor mats, misc trims)? Own a 2E corolla here in Singapore, would love to get hold of a maroon interior and have it shipped over to install in my car.

[evaaawilliams89]

Oh, I had the same car a few years ago. Looking forward to pic updates

[evaaawilliams89]

Do you have any information about 1986 - 1991 corolla. I'm looking for it too

[399.ak]

The complete maroon interior will cost you around 100-150k depending on how clean it is.
You can easily find it in Peshawar Shoba.

@sksan quetta markets are overflowing with maroon interiors of EE-90 SE SALOON JDM Variant. If you pay a visit and negotiate in person it will be around half the price of shoba peshawer

[naveed-khattak]

Dear EVA .... u r in USA & i m in Pakistan. It is impossible to help you out. If you were in Pakistan then it wasn't a big deal..

[sksan]

Thanks for the info! Currently, the problem I have is that I reside in Singapore, and with the ongoing pandemic, I won't be able to fly over to Pakistan. Is there any way to engage with someone to help purchase the maroon interior and engage a courier service like DHL to have it shipped to Singapore?

[sameerulhaq064]

The shipping cost would be way too high

[capsat]

From Quetta to Singapore 🤠
If you are resident of Singapore, cross the bay pay visit to KL yards you will not be disappointed

[sksan]

KL yards as in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia? Perhaps i should take a look there first. Thanks for the heads up!

I hope everyone is healthy and fine.
This covid 19 really has been a serious situation for all of us.
My Dadi passed away in November 2020 pray for her magfirat and my prayers are with those who lost their loved ones to this covid.

So i am posting after a year gap because i got busy with life and also my final year papers and project at University.
Finally done with university in july and hopefully degree will be cleared in 1-2 months.

A lot has happened in this year and the changes to the project white EE90 and 2nd blue EE90 project.

I will gradually update you guys.
Stay tuned and also a little surprise is on the way.

May Allah forgive ur dadi and give her highest rank in Jannah

So after june 2020 mostly the car was driven in city for house chores/ school duty and Friday trips.
Completed 10000km in December 2020.

Cleaned the fuel tank and changed fuel pump in December as it was not replaced earlier.
After replacement

Got fuel pump for 1500 and 1000 labour.

Also the rims colour was getting on my nerves from the first day so finally took them off and painted it silver.
Costed Rs2000.
Took 1 day.
