    Default Rhys' 86

    I bought this in january of this year (2009) and sold it roughly 5 months later to buy a 180 and have now bought it back again.

    Here's what was done when i bought it:

    JDM 4age 16v
    T3 Coilovers with adjustable kyb agx shocks in the rear
    T3 panhard rod
    T3 camber tops
    JDM efi fuel tank
    JDM ECU
    JDM Exhaust Manifold
    Cat-back Exhaust with twin pipes
    Rebuilt t50
    New radiator


    This is how it looked when i first bought it:





    Then added some Konig Rewinds:



    Sprayed the bumpers flat black and got some twin pipes:



    Got rid of all the tacky interior and sprayed most of it flat black, added a dish wheel and el cheapo bucket:




    After this i sold it to buy my 180, which i got bored of and bought my old girl back, the guy who owned it beat her a fair bit so i got it back with smashed gaurds, lights and the paint is ruined, so now im thowing some money at her..

    It now has:

    *TRD 2-way LSD
    *Hydraulic Handbrake
    *Rear Rotors and Caliper set up
    *New front gaurds

    Some time this week ill be fixing up the rear gaurds and it will get a full white re-spray.

    Im also fitting a full DMAX kit tomorrow so i will update with photos.
