Hey wassup all! Names T, I'm 20 and live in Melbourne. And this is my 1983(4) Aus Spec Sprintaaaaaaaaaah!
I Picked it up from a very nice chap in Yarraville the other day. It's a 'stocker' but its basically an unfinished project car (Which I plan on finishing in my owner ship! ;oP ) And I got it for a STEAL considering the condition of everything even the sh*tty 4AC. The body is in GREAT condition with no rust. Have a few things to fix here and there, but nothing too major, and planning on getting it on the road sometime in December when I come back from my holiday @ the Palazzo Versace on the Gold Coast http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/cool.gif . Any comments pos & neg are welcome!
Planning to go with the usual mods like suspension etc etc down the track after I get used 2 manual again, but planning on dropping in a 4AGZE and perhaps turboing it down the road! How much do those conversions go for anyway? (The 4AGZE engine swap I mean). And I think i need a wheel alignment cause I'm getting a bit of 'steering wheel shake/shudder' @ 70k's+.
Anyway I hope ya'll like it.

wow thats a beauty!! hell neat! good find! dont wanna sell it do you lol jkn! you can get an entire half cut for about $2000 to $2500 depending on where you go. if you haggle a bit you should be able to get the gearbox thrown in for free cause sometimes they sell the gearbox seperatly. the conversion you should do your self or with frind hell cheaper than gettin an enginer to do it

Do you have spacers on the rear wheels?
Cheers

21st October 2005, 09:10 PM
lol yes the stickers are telling many lies atm, going to be removing them. They may come back in future if i'm that way inclined but i'm not really too keen on them. Alan I don't think its running any spacers.
There will be many a status update on it in future.

Mine does that, i have had wheel balancing and alignment and it still did nothing. I'm going to replace the wheel bearings when I finish moving house. Hopefully that is the problem.
