    Aus delivered 1983 ae86
    MAP 4A-GZE conversion
    run by microtech ltx-8
    front mounted cooler (from a gz20, jza70, etc.. i think u guys would know the ones)
    2.5" exhaust
    Koni yellow's
    Whiteline springs
    Whiteline front strut brace
    whiteline adjustable rear swaybar
    whiteline front swaybar
    custom made rear "between seat" brace (like aspec ones)
    cusco rs 2-way lsd, in a later model t-18 with sway bar mounts
    probably a few other things that im forgetting...

    currently being prepped for a backyard spray job, will post a few pics when this is done.

    long live the ae86... and the soarer as a daily driver

    how's the Microtec EMC go? did it make much of a difference in power and fuel comsumption? i'm about to get one in the next month or so.

    you recon it's worth the money?

    for your gze? or something else;
    personally id stick with standard engine management if possible (it depends on what the car is for man), but if u want more power then yes this will give it to you. Fuel, well couldnt tell you, id say no casue ud be more inclined to get stuck into it. Microtech's in gereral are great at full throttle, but cruising at low rpm's are not so smooth as standard.
    But they certinally let u have more power and allow future changes to engine that sticking with the standard ecu will not allow.
    Good for getting more power, worth the money, but if ur just using it on a daily driver, that rarely sees the track, i dont think id do it, unless u have engine mods planned that require it.

    no standard ecu is gone.

    also bit of an update, the car will be stipped as of this weekend to begin the painting prep. undecided on acryllic or 2pack, possibly 2pack as it wont cost much more, but i dunno if the car will last as long as the paint anyway, lol.
