Does anyone remember/own a Corollica?

[Super RA]

Hello, I'm new at this forum. I usually hang around the classic celica forum but thought I'd drop by here to see what people are doing to there Corollas. Anyhow, there was a time back when I searched on the internet and there was someone who had an 89-92 corolla sedan and swapped in celica brakes and all. He also swapped in a Silvertop 20V. Now his web page is gone and I can't find any info on it. Does anyone remember or have more details on that car? Thanks

Corollica? You mean Corolla? Everyone has a Corolla, they're almost as abundant as Civics for christs sake. Now if your talking about a real Corolla(pre-1988 rwd) then yes, I have one, and so do quite a few others on here.

read his post dude.. he's taking about someone who called their Corolla a "Corollica" because it had "Celica" parts.. get it??

Yea, someone had a 89-92 Corolla Sedan (AE92 sedan?) and they used brakes from a Celica and swapped in a 20V silver top. They named it Corollica I think. They had a whole web page writeup on it, but now I can't find it =(

^^^ pwned.

Anywho, that would be a nice thing to see.
If you find that page, link it here please =)

Considering that celicas use a completly differnt braking system than a corolla and different engines, and no celicas had 4AGE's, sounds pretty stupid to me.

celicas use a 5-100 bolt pattern on the wheels, so the rotors wouldnt fit the corolla. They also used either the S-block engines or the 7AFE on the later ST's.

Camry's are much closer to celicas than corollas are.

Not totally true.. some STs had 4x100 bolt pattern, but even then.. people are known for upgrading their hubs from 4bolt to 5bolt, its done on hondas a lot, and I've seen it done on Toyotas before too.

However the name is kinda stupid though.

'a real corolla' '4ac 4 life'......

i'm sure my FWD corolla could eat yours alive....straights & corners

with the 20v engine, its more like a corolla GTS or a mr2 than it is a celica.

[toyotaspeed90]

^^^ well, except that the celica ST's did have 4/7afe's...... i know someone with a 6th gen celica that has a 20V swapped into it.....

[Tommy]

BLEH...4AGE's are crap, 20v or not.

woooo 112 hp!!! 90lb tq...

or the 20v's 160hp and 120tq. woopty freakin dooo!!!

in a 2600lb celica thats crap. expecially since none of that power is made below 6k rpm.

My 200SX will eat your Corolla for lunch, straights and twisties. I wasn't talking about racing though, so you can come down from your podium now.

[SpeedballTrix]

^^^ Well said.

[toyotaspeed90]

well.... if the corolla were to lose (which i doubt still)..... then i would bring out the much faster & better handling mr2.....
