Hey Guys,

Here is afew pics of my newly acquired AE86 Sprinter 1983 ADM model.

This is my 3rd Sprinter over the past 5-6years, 1x4AC, 1x4AGE 16v, ive also owned a 4AGE 100kw TE72 T18.

I picked this up pretty cheap with 4months rego, runs well and has an excellent straight body, although paint is faded badly, No Rust in body at all, (excuse the tailgate! lol )apart from one small 5c piece near rear taillight and small surface rust new petrol cap, both of which have been sanded/filed down and repaired.

It bought this bog stock, and requried afew thing for a RWC. It has 177,000 and interior is fairly clean.

-Windscreen, brake hoses, tyres(just bought rims instead), steering rack boots, and afew globes.

Ive only owned it 2 weeks but i got stuck right into it and started pulling it apart, needed to bin the old hatch and spray a new one which was supplied with the car.

so far these are what ive purchased, or had from old cars, and am in the middle of installing:
- Whiteline adj front strut brace (from old car)
- Whiteline adj front swaybar (from old car)
- Tokico adj Illumina shocks (from old car)
- TRD springs (from old car)
- Black - japanese made lightweight "Black Racing" (rs watanabe style)
- T-series TE72 rear end drum to drum
- T3 RCA's
- Tein Upper Pillow ball mounts
- Redline Taillights
- Kouki Parkers (ordered just waiting)
- Custom plates (from old car)
- Momo black fixed bucket seat with AE86 rails (from old car)
- Twincam steering wheel
- Pivot Shift Light (from old car)
- Dash matt - AJPS http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/tongue.gif
- Stickers lol

to come in the next 4-6weeks, Jap Spec RWD 16v 4AGE, Levin letterbox grille, some kind of front brake upgrade to JDM or RA60 calipers with slotted rotors. Then later in the year a new paint job in a slightly darker metallic blue.

Ill add some more pics next week when its rolling again http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/smile.gif see below before and after http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/smile.gif Excuse the AE82 parker! lol waiting for the Kouki ones

thanks guys, yeah i almost regretted buying it when i picked it up and drove it home, i just had to pull it all apart that night. Afew guys how have had and seen ALOT of AE86s said they have never seen a hatch so bad, and amazed that it didnt rust out the inner boot.

Looks 100% better now hard to match 20year old faded paint :/ but it will get a re-spray in afew months oct/nov, thats after the engine conversion though http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/smile.gif

at least u could just get a new panel/boot, my rust is on the shell http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/sad.gif major repairs to be done, but youve done a good job though.

thanks, yeah the seller supplied a new hatch different colour with only minor rust so i dodgy painted that with a can for the time being, it can be a bitch to find them 2nd hand with no rust.

There was only a 5cm hole above tail light which i fixed by filing it out and filing with metal filler etc.

Well here it is the finished result!! minus redlines, i sold them, now the car is gone too! as seen on toymods 4sale section http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/biggrin.gif

I need a newer car for a daily http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/sad.gif dont worry another hatchi will be on the horizon next year, this was my 3rd and my 4th i think i will just buy it all modded, too much hassle i dont have the time anymore like when i was at Uni http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/sad.gif

I stripped the car of most parts, it came with only the shocks/springs and wheels, the rest has all been sold seperately http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/biggrin.gif

WHEELS WERE SOLD WITH THE CAR!!!! god damn ive had like everyone that owns a fcken sprinter ask me to buy the wheels, im in the worng line of work, selling sprinter offset wheels is where it is at! lol
