My 7th Gen Rolla, it never stops.....Are you Rolla guys ready for Adam? lol

No, I've not given up the camry by any means.

I;ve learned WAY too much about the 7th Gen over the last couple weeks.

I got the car a couple months ago from my Nana (Grandma) in FL, who sadly dies a few days after she gave me the car. But it was good that I was able to see her. One of the last things she said to me was I could sell the car if I wanted, an dI told her I was not going to.

It;s a BASE (no options, not even clock) '95 AE101.

So far I have added:
1: Rear Speakers
2: 60/40 Split Folding Seats (Need to weld on the side brackets still)
3: Center Console storage box
4: Kenwood HU
5: Tilt Steering Wheel
6: Variable Int Wipers (It only had Hi/Lo as a BASE model)
7: Trunk Light
8: Drivers lower Dash HVAC Vent (I need to add rear floor ones still)
9: Clock
10: Instrument Cluster W/Tach (Fuel guage is messed up so need new one)
11: Power Mirrors (One done and installed, need to finish painting the other)
12: Power Windows and Door Locks

Right now I;m changing the struts/mounts as at 23k miles (Yes, Car has an original 23k miles) the struts are dead. I blame it on the speed bumps where the car used to be. Also changign the ball joints and outter tie rod ends.

Also adding a front sway bar.

Money dependant, I'll upgrade the suspension late this year.

Then 1-2 years down the road, I plan an engine swap. Not sure what engine (Bouncing around 4 or 5 possible engines). Either way, it will be a factory OR TRD boosted engine no matter which one I choose. And likely swapped to a 5-speed to save on weight in the front end.

I'll be following your build closely since this could get interesting!

Glad to have you aboard the Corolla crew.

All it needs is a 3S-GTE swap.

Well, of course thats one of the bunch I;m debating. :-P

I've been working on my friends AE86 GTS in town and that engine is quite easy to work on. Well, the 4AGE anyway, lol.

Nice! The GZE isn't much more complex and it packs a nice little punch. Plus its an easy swap.
