Description
Unfortunately due to mental and physical health issues I'm having to list my Toyota K-Rolla G6R. It wasn't an easy decision to make as I absolutely love the car. It's a wolf in sheeps clothing, never fails to put a smile on your face. Trips to the hospital and doctors whilst having severe head pains and migraines are forcing me to do this. They've induced me to lose all will and dedication in anything I do.
Mental health issues have also caused me to lose substantial amount of hours at work and being at university at the same time is also a challenge. Keeping an extra car isn't something I can cope with anymore. I need to focus more on my compulsory endeavours over my car. Actually shedding a tear writing this advert ???? .
I've had it on and off (went to a friend for a few months then came back) since April 2020 , even before it was K swapped I had kept it maintained to the highest standards. I 'believe' it is the only K20 swapped Corolla E11 in the UK (and possibly Ireland). My friends who own Civics have said it has a much more better feel on the road and better response due to it being lighter and lower (their words not mine). It stands out in the crowd as it's a unique build. It took time and patience to get it on road but was worth it. And I WILL do it all over again when I fully recover. Leaves behind the 2zz and 4age 20v that usually get swapped in this chassis Corolla (no offence Toyota guys).
Below is a brief spec list of the car;
K20a2 engine (107k miles)
M factory LSD 6 SPEED GEARBOX
(Mounted with custom made mounts and shafts)
Custom 3" exhaust including 4-2-1 manifold with high flow sports cat
Doctronic K pro ecu
Accord K24 power steering
Aircon and ABS delete
TRD front strut brace (needs a powdercoat)
Upgraded Levin twinpot front brake calipers (rebuilt) with Mtec drilled and grooved discs and MR2 SW20 turbo pads
Hardrace rear suspension control arms
BRD poly front and rear arb bushes
Team dynamic pro alloys wrapped in Pirelli P1s 195-50-R15
Momo JDM Steering wheel (optional extra in the Starlet GT)
Hybrid billet shifter (DC5)
Racetech speed and rev gauges (fitted in place of original clocks)
The 'K20 swap' package was purchased from Just Tec Motorsport and the conversion was carried out in Lincolnshire by CF AUTOWORKS
It made 199. 55 WHP (about 225bhp) on the dyno. Redlines at 8. 45k , Vtec just around 5k (map can be adjusted). For a road legal car that weighs 1080kg that is very decent output.
MOT Until 16th Feb 2023. All the advisories have been rectified.
(Rear brakes sorted , had old random tyres and wheels on for rolling it around and they came up as an advisory, Engine light wouldn't turn on with the first click of the key (also rectified) , rocker cover gasket replaced and horn also wired in).
I have receipts for almost everything done with the car. You can also contact the company that carried out the conversion at any given time if you have any more questions regarding the conversion.
Underneath is fairly clean compared to most 90s Japs. I've not had a chance to give it treatment for extra protection, was going to this summer. Shell is on 124k miles.
I have a few extras (some fitted and some not) which I will throw in like TRD springs, original steering wheel , TTE grill bit between bumper and grill, TTE rear Lip , TTE spoiler. These all add up to a fair bit as they're hard to get hold of nowadays.
Being the 'G6R' version it comes with its usual refinements such as side skirts, aluminium bonnet, front 2 piece lip, front fogs, red seatbelts , rear disc brakes, electric sunroof and electric side mirrors.
It has an agreed valuation of £10000 with the insurers . Only cost £712 to insure with all mechanical mods declared as well as myself and cousin on the policy (both Under 25) which is a very good price as my daily diesel car is £750.
K-Rolla returns a modest 27-28mpg on a run with mix match driving.
I've kept it as a 1. 6 on the logbook just for road tax purposes as the tax for 2. 0 Civics is about £330+.
Buyer can choose whether to register as a 2. 0 on the logbook if they want.
It's recently been reversed into by someone in a car park and has 2 dents and a mark on the passenger door/ side. Easily repairable or could just find a replacement door (which I will try and assist in doing). Overall the K-Rolla isn't a mint scene queen and will need the odd bits doing here and there which was my long term plan but a much presentable and solid car to use as a daily if you drive minimal miles or as a weekend car for fun like I used it.
I'm going to be asking around £9000 (offers) which is almost 30% less than what it costs to build. I will disclose all the figures to the potential buyer at the point of sale and give all relevant invoices with the car.
Car can be viewed from this weekend onwards in Stoke-on-Trent, UK. Test drives will be done by myself unless you're over 25, I'm not an awkward person, just being cautious and bit paranoid (as you would expect with my health). Payment via Bank transfer only.
I can arrange the car to be delivered anywhere (if needs be) with a reputable company.
Have plenty of pics of the build so feel free to ask.
