im sorry but my AE92 takes the cake

Sorry to go off topic, but whatever, my Sister was considering an AE92 as her first car, which I am all for, I cant count the amount of ppl who praise the name of these corolla's.

The only thing that I wasn't overly thrilled about was the fact that it has a carby.... is it worth spending a bit more for the AE93 to get fuel injection??

Any advice appreciated :)

haha no i didnt mean it as a bad thing... well.. i dunno :)

i bought my AE92 off a female owner who had it involved in several minor crashes.. she had owned it for 5 years and NEVER serviced it... I paid $300 for it with rego, and i changed the oil.. which was like sludge, changed the plugs and various other things.

Ive owned it for over a year now and its never let me down apart from a front brake line splitting and causing me to hit a tree and unable to stop.

all in all ive spent 200 on it. and it is THE most reliable car. its got fantastic air con, heating, power steer, and its efi.

however it looks like the biggest heap of shit on the fact of earth :)

I thought the AE92's were all carby.. and the AE93 had the EFI ?

nah. the Diff between a AE92 and 93 is trim spec mainly.

theres the base model, carby with drum rears, then mid spec, which is 4afe efi with drum rears, and then ae92 seca which is 4age and 4 wheel disk

    • It's been a little over a decade since I bought the S15. As I did on my socials, I'll share some of my favorite pictures from over the years further below. If you haven't realised, pretty much all the pictures in my posts are ones I've taken.  In terms of updates, I don't have pictures, but I acquired a near-perfect pair of fog lights from a friend of mine, so those got swapped in for the pair I already had. As for the JZX110, I just got it back from being fixed. A few weeks back, I was on the highway when I suddenly drove over something with very little time to react. It was probably the size of a soccer ball, but it went under the car and banged into the underside pretty loudly. I pulled over and realized the fluid leaking was fuel, and of course, it was right near my exhaust. This required replacing the fuel tank. If you happen to be in the same predicament, thankfully this car shares a fuel tank with the JZS171, IS200, and IS300, so it wasn't too painful to replace. Enjoy some pictures as mentioned above, including the carnage from the fuel tank and a bonus picture I came across which shows how ridiculously shiny the Bugels are on the 110. So many more pictures I could share of the S15 but this will do for today, enjoy.
