    Default Project 86!

    Edit* New Pics 4/1/10

    Ive always wanted an ae86 and after crashing my 71 I decided to buy a shell and chuck all my gear into it. So last week I picked up a non rolling shell (which is actually not hard to transport). It has a bit of rust and is only half painted. lol. But i plan on cutting out the rust whilst it in in shell
    form so I wont have to do it again.

    Anyway here's some info and plans!

    Its a 83 ADM sprinter, has a modplate LA1option3.

    Ill be chucking in a JDM 4age bigport, T50, Jasma stainless extractors, 2.25 mandral bent exhaust system, and hopefully a T series Diff (if i can find one for a good price), front and rear strut braces.

    For suspension I have some 8kg front coilovers all the way from jdm land, probly some Corona lca's, 6kg ajps rear springs and some agx shocks. Ill be also chucking my Superlites on unless I find some epic rims i like better.

    Will be keeping interior pretty stock but will be chucking my obx recliners in the front. And eventually getting a cage. Got a pretty different looking front bar aswell (possibly JDM levin).

    And after it all gets up and driving Ill paint the rest of the car. Atm it only needs roof and rear quarters done. The paint colour looks sorta like phantom purple. But not sure as I dont have the colour code. Will probs keep the car purple but Im gana have satin black bumpers with a gloss black bonnet.

    Ill post up and update more when I work on the car

    Not much of an update, but I stripped the interior and gave it a good wash. Carpet and rear seat came up mint as.
    Oh and I have a pic of my front coilovers.

    Picked up some seat rails so I can chuck my bucket seats in. Also got a pedal box as mine didn't have one.
    And hopefully tommoro picking up a diff.

    Took my rooflining in to get re-done, getting it done in black. Should I make all interior plastics black also or would that be too much black?
