hi, i have just picked up a corolla GXi.. think its called an ae102...
its got a 7a-fe engine in...
going to break the car...

what i wanted to know was.. how hard is it to to swap the disks of that and put them on my car?

thanks

((also just seen that its got an oil cooler... how hard is that to put on?))

not too sure about the oil cooler man, but the discs ara fairly easy.

take off the FULL hubs with handbrake cables, they have to be swapped over.not too sure if the GXi and xli radius rods differ, I got a 20V rear axle and the rods were thicker than the standard xli ones...

and yes, thats all that you have to swap over (just full hubs mainly, including hubs, brake discs, caliper, pads, carriers etc)

You'll need to get ahold of a Levin... the have all the parts needed to swap it over.

Is the front lip cracked?

Can't really tell by the photos. I might be interested in that if the price is right.

EDIT: PM me.

if its going to get scrapped, can I get the bare hubs with ABS sensors, maters cylinder, front barke lines and ABS unit?want to fit them to my turbo corolla, hate the locking front brakes lol

and the skirts, strutbrace and good back light too...PM me price or if we can swap parts from mine

you could also sell the doorcards and backseats, clocks, arm-rest centre console (which it has) on ebay...I like the way GXi's have the footrest beside the clutch pedal, add comfort on long drives...
