My te72 sedan

Post by Overdrift »

Let my ae86 go to a higher bidder today... so I decided to spend a little money on getting another rwd toyota.

Paid 400 for this autotragic 3tc corolla.

I'll get some more pictures when I get my camera cable 8)


A new condenser will be installed soon and the a/c WILL be working. I put a charge of r134 and it was blowing cold at the vents but was leaking slowly out of a crack on the condenser.

hahahahaha

Hopefully you sold yours to somebody that knows corolla's very well :lol:



I've worked on the factory carb, took it apart and fixed a few problems it had. It now idles at 1100 rpms, but its not perfect. Current MPG is 11.3 , I have a friend that is going to trade me a 32/36 for my gt-s wiring harness and a few other corolla misc.

I put 80 miles on her today. Thank god I have the Paseo until I get the weber 11mpg +3.90 gas = hurt. I am hoping to have the a/c working next payday (i'll go to the junkyard or source a condenser from a member)

I get damn near close mileage as alex in the fc, but I pay it because the car is soooooo much fun to drive. It pops fireballs, the exhaust sounds amazing, you can do some insane drifting..... and its got flip up headlight <3

I've got enough people telling me how to live my life, I'll put your helpful info on page 424.

This is car number 37 :)

I'm shooting to get to #45 by the end of '09



The Paseo will go to the first person that offers a Toyota truck in decent body shape, running/driving.
