    Hi Chris, yeah it would of been nice to see the engine apart. The pipes are very good condition, the tig welding is very neatly done, genuine TRD N1/Group A, I got them out of Japan, I also have the front part of the second part of the exhaust as it's a slip joint and has the lugs for the springs holding the exhaust together to catch onto(if that makes sense), unfortunately I'm not interested in selling them as they are part of my 'old school' 4age/ae86 header collection, as for the initial data I put up early on in this thread, that was a few years back, I'd have to have a hunt through my files to find all those runs. I've just put two and two together your car is the one from the museum, currently in latest Real race cars.

    I will take some pics before it goes back in tomorrow.
    Since buyiing this I have found two TTA R-dot blocks, TRD spec head and 304 cams for spares. Thought I might need them for this build but the engine was in real good condition.
    I blew a head gasket due to an overheat becuase the big plugs between the spark plugs were leaking.
    Back in the mid eighties I worked at Ferguson Toyota and I am still good friends with John Smith who was the first and last driver of this car during its competition life between 1986 to 1989, then it was parked at Toyota head office for years then disappeared up to the museum.
    If you get a chance to find the sheets, that would be great.
    Yeah, Real race cars did the photoshoot back in January and story a few months later. Nice guys and is a good mag, I hope it goes well for them.

    Chris I will definately look the dyno data out for you, just can't promise when. Many years ago I had a really good chat to Bob Holden about his 86, the detailed he remembered was impressive. Nice car I'd love to own it

    that's neat thanks, to the right of this pic do they taper down before increasing back in size like a venturi?

    Sam, no, they merge into a constant diameter, I guess this was the mid 80's The pipe diam sizes are 2 x 42mm into 51mm.

    Yep 2", The exhaust is much shorter overall than you'd find on a road car though. Sam, I also have a number of exhaust headers(HKS, Trust, RS*R, RS Yasu) and they are all 2" after the collector. What is ALSO interesting that between the standard ex manifold + TRD secondary pipe AND all the other headers, the overall length of the pipes whether they be 4-1 or 4-2-1 is nearly the same.
