Hi all, thought I would finally post my car here. I've owned it for about a year now but have been very slack in my efforts to get it track worthy. The specs of the car are as follows:
Metalic Blue AE71 still with stock unstripped interior, chassis has no bracing. Rear guards have had the hammer treatment, fronts have been cut, bent upwards, fiberglassed over and filled. Front and rear guards are still unfinished and looks ugly, but looks don't really phase me.
Front suspension consists of the following... AE86 struts with coil over kit put on, normal length koni yellow adjustables (adjusted to almost full stiffnes), 10kg/mm springs, cusco strut tops, whiteline RCA's (25mm I think), whiteline non adjustable swaybar, rose jointed adjusteble castor rods, lower control arms have been cut and had rose joint taken from camry rear control arm adapted and welded in so as it has adjustable length (thanks Kluiso) these rose joints are sealed. RA40 tierods, steering rack uses home made shims, power steering knuckles, Running -2.5' camber, +6.5' castor, 1mm total toe out. Running 14 by 7's, 0 offset with yokohama AO48's 195/60 R14, 26p.s.i.
Rear suspension has... Kings super low 8kg/mm springs, koni RA28 red adjustable dampers (set almost full stiffness), rose jointed four link, whiteline adjustable panhard rod, RA28 whiteline non adjustable swaybar, 14 by 7's tyres change, madisons on there at the moment, Nankangs going on next week, street tyres on back most of the time running from 32-36p.s.i. T-18 early diff without swaybar mounts and TRD 2-way center (thanks Johnny Rochester) set pretty loose at the moment. Will get it out and shim it up soon.
Brakes are Aus spec AE86 fronts with RB74 pads, rears are T-18 with stock replacement type shoes. Only using dot 3 brake fluid. Drift button on handbrake.
Bigport 4A-GE recently had new rings and sand paper hone. Stock except for Kei-hin quad carbs 38.5mm ($100) on home made manifold ($15 worth of material) equals cheaper than webers but more tuning required. Modified a 4k dizzy to fit, 267' duration cams, adjustable gears, stock exhaust manifold, 2.5 piping without mandrel bends, single rear muffler. T-50 gearbox. Will fit 4A-GTE soon, will run W series gearbox.
Feel free to comment on my car, good or bad. If you see me out on the road, feel free to invite me for a drive down your favorite road, will come for a drive most of the time. Cheers, Ash.
