you tease too much, i want pics.
Its also not technically a sedan but yair, what colour is it now?
Hey lads.
Haven't got the pics yet, but I thought I'd get a thread started, just to be ready for when i get them from my old harddrive.
So basically what we got is:
1983 AE86 Trueno Sedan.
I bought this car in 2006 with a lot of rust, HKS Mushroom Pod, FGK Extractors, 2 inch Exhuast with various mufflers as they seemed to like falling off, Cusco coilovers with cambertops unkown spring rate, trd blue 8 way shocks, with some blue springs (Yep! Blue ones!!!!), TRD 4.3 2 Way, Safety 21 6 point bolt in cage, drift button, TRD knob, Some sort of "Black Racing" steering wheel with TRD horn, and a big gay ass recliner seat.
Where is it now?
In the shed at my place, almost completely stripped slowly getting the rust cut out.
What's new?
So I've replaced the rear suspension with TRD blue 8 way shocks with custom coilover setup, which I'm told is from an N2 race car. New tail lights, D-Max 30mm front gaurds, Origin Lab 30mm rear flares, Front and rear strut braces, IAP fixed back adr Approved recaro copy, Haltech E8 with 4 LSI ignition thingoes, AE101 silvertop quads, with bigport adaptor, AE101 block and crank, spool h Beam connecting rods, URAS full kit brand new and some other shit. Also 14 row oil cooler with remote filter and DBA slotted JDM discs.
Whats next?
In the mail from Japan right now (should be here within the week or so) are brand new Work Equip 01 in 15X8.5 -22 and X9 -18, and pretty much every thing for the front end that AJPS supply.
Then I'll be building a motor with TODA forgies with an CR of about 11.8:1, modified crank, TODA main bearings, Tomei procams 304* 11mm lift, TODA inner shim kit, valve springs, retainers, collets and spring seats, TRD or TODA H/G, with the spool rods, All ARP fasteners, good big end bearings. Also maybe get some braided lines and so on.
Pretty much all I got left is:
Fuel system,
Clutch & Flywheel
Paint
Tune
FRP bonnet and boot lids
and I'm sure more will come up.
All work will be done in the shed at home, minus tune. And engine machining which I'll do myself at work.
Any ways this won't be too interesting for you guys til I get some photos, so I'll get to it soon.
Peace out ya handsome cunts,
Damien.

The colour is still Panda... but it's covered in dust, there's a seat in the boot, gaurds on the roof, flares in the engine bay, rods in the boot... And dusty.
Lots of dust.
Unsure of colour yet.
Also, I should add, it would still be on the road if it wasn't for some stubby fingered member of the local constublry.
And the gaurds were originally for a damaged front quarter on Mt Glorious. Which was embarassing since we weren't ven going fast....
Yo Daimien get some pics mangtang.. would love to see the progression on this thing since I last saw it... (when you let me have a quick blocky in kangaroo point like 2 years ago lol) if you remember that....
Niz...
