hey everyone
I am new to this forum
Im sure i will be searching the forum looking for tip hints and ideas
I have an ae90 corolla that started out baby blue and i have now resprayed it voodoo blue.
It started life with the 6afe 1.4 carbie and i'm in the middle of putting a BT 20v in it, i don"t know how hard it will be, only 1 way to find out
I picked my baby up for $1 and a hand shake so i thought it was a good deal.
I will post put some pics when i work out how to do so

Looks awesome, be sure to keep the thread updated with your progress on the conversion as I am planning on doing the same in my underpowered ae90

hey dan
last week i got the fly wheel machined then put a new exedy hd clutch in, gave it a bit of a clean up
yesterday i put the engine in only took me an hour, i was happy with that
in the afternoon i started connecting everything
clutch line
gear box shifter cables
fuel lines
I just need to get it ready to be rewired and exhaust so hopefully in the next 2 or so weeks it will be wired up i will post some pics when i get some updates
If u need a list of the things needed for the conversion let me know
i just looking for the sx break upgrade then i will be importing some new front and rear discs

Hey, good work so far, love the blue. I'm still a newb, doing a silvertop into my '94 CSi.
You can give Graham's wreckers in Smithfield a call, they should have the series two SX calipers and rear disc brake stuff for conversion.
I've sent a pm. :)
