That AE82 is gorgeous.

Quick shot of mine from the weekend.

Just realised that I haven't posted my Corolla which I bought 2 months ago. So here he is, Paddy my Toyota. A 1.3 1998 i, so it's basic as hell. Which suits me - less to go wrong!

Bought it for £250 and it's done 98k miles, and tomorrow I'll be changing the timing belt, giving it new oil, filter, a good clean and a wash. Eventually I'll paint the black bumpers and wing mirrors white, paint the mud flaps red, and put some vinyl on it so it looks like the rally car of 1998. It'll be replacing a crappy Peugeot 3008 that has failed me for the last time until I can buy a Land Cruiser.

My 2 Deer Hunters.

2002 T-Sport on the left just finished being rebuilt; handily found someone breaking a T-Sport the same colour in Glasgow! (The bumper was repainted but the Lacquer didn't work too well)
134k Miles

1999 G6 (Lost the grill in its Bambi incident); never bothered getting a bonnet the right colour.
171k Miles it's high mile club Badge sitting where the tax disc used to.
 

 

Now I'm back on the road the green lighting was annoying me with it sitting below a Blue, Red and White display on the mini-disc player; so

Had a look around and took my centre console apart, discovered the base colour was Orange which was a start to the improvements...

Bit of thought and...
Blue T5 for the clock and mode display
Red T4 for the buttons
Amber T3 for the Hazzard light button

What can't be seen in the picture is:
Blue LED 286 bulb used in the "Ashtray" for lighting.
Blue LED 286 bulb used in the 12v Socket... Despite being "Wide Angle" it doesn't produce enough throw, so have ordered some standard 286 bulbs for use in here, but decided to go with Red to fit with the other smaller areas.

Now the Green lighting on the window switches, TRC Button and Headlamp leveler were a bit out of place.
No pictures for this; 
The Headlamp leveler uses a soldered in bulb with a green cap on it; some Humbrol Clear Red varnish on both the bulb and the clear light carrier sorted that one out/
The TRC switch has a side on T4 bulb; great I have red LEDs... except they aren't that wide angle, so took a green cap off one of the ones removed from the centre console and loaded it up with that Humbrol; looks great, just a pity the mirror control doesn't light up at all.

Had the Window switches in bits tonight and this is a different problem; they have green leds on the PCB; so tried out the following to see how well they work:
N/S Switch, painted the clear window on the switch body on the inside - Result, pretty rubbish, light very dim and orange
O/S Switches; painted the green leds - also rubbish, loss of viewable angle and quite orange although my dry better.
If I can be bothered I'll look at any way of changing the LED on the PCB or getting another light source in the unit.

Hello, Hi, I'm from the Czech Republic. This is my Toyota Corolla Compressor, 165Kw.

And winter setup :-)

My two Survivor, extremly rare in Germany today:

 

1987 Corolla Liftback 1.6DX

mileage: ~125000km (my daily-driver until summer 2017)

One of the last produced E8 Liftbacks with 1.6l 4A-L Engine, complete rebuild with support by a official Toyota-Dealer.

 

1983 Corolla Liftback 1.6GL

mileage: ~73200km

nickname: Goldi

In Germany the last 1.6GL with a lot of rust..... also supported by a official Toyota-Dealer.

Goldi is a Jackpot for me, its one of the first ever produced E8 Liftbacks: Datecode 6/1983 (toyodiy.com)

A third E8 Liftback will be nice, but it must be a 1983-1984 1.6DX in "surfing blue"!

[maciek_dm]

Hello Everybody,

I'm Maciej from Poland - this is my E8 liftback from 1986; owned in 2014 from Sicily with 87.000 kilometers. Now is 101.000 km.

Best regards,

Maciej

Looking for mod recommendations - 2017 SE

[Ilakis]

Hi there, I'm from Lithuania, but currently living in Denmark, here's my 99' g6r hatch, with 1.6 4a fe with 6 speed, bought it half a year ago and did some serious mileage. 20k km or 30k miles, traveling all around Europe, it doesn't have serious mod list (for now, I hope) here's some pics. It's my first car and I'm going to make her a second car after another half a year, main plan is 4agze or 1zzfe for starteRs, 4wd and ofc WRC bumper. The last picture was done in German autobahn so no rules were broken;)

[john webley]

my hatchback reached 100,000 miles today

 

 sorry it needs a polish,but still runs well,much appreciated car !!

[MaciekTS]

Hi Everyone,

Last week I bought PFL 04 plate Corolla TS, got it from first owner, it has leather seats..(not as bad as some say ;) ) 107000 miles on the clock and growing :)

 

[KennyKen1988]

Very nice Maciek, seen a few black ones come up for sale recently, none about when I got mine.

My car is actually quite tatty on the outside as it has the infamous lacquer peel of doom !

I've had my car since last spring and I really enjoy it, need to do a few things like renew the exhaust manifold and perhaps new shifter bushes otherwise very happy :-)

That colour is so pretty! Always liked the SR's to be honest :)

[morgan___97]

My T3. Full T-Sport exterior conversion, lowered 40mm on Apex springs, and has an eBay short shifter.

[KennyKen1988]

Switched up to a set of SSW Trex 17x7J wheels, they are a bit tatty but came with a good set of Dunlop SP-9000 tyres and will serve well over the winter. I'm keeping my Original wheels in tip top condition for the Summer ! Riding quite high I know although with all the hills and pot holes I I like the extra ground clearance !

Do you know anywhere that might sell the SR front lip? And T-Sport Compressor rear bumper insert? 

[KennyKen1988]

A quick photo I've got the whole exhaust system done in stainless now very happy with the results.
