    Default Kiwi AE86 !!

    Hey all,

    Long time lurker, first time poster

    Well im from New zealand, and thought id post a few pics etc of my ae86...

    I brought the car from a friend of mine that used to live in japan ( was his beater for a few years ) and when i took ownership the car looked good from afar but far from good..
    Dont get me wrong, it had the key elements of a nice 86' in the making ( diff, suspension and wheels ) but being from japan ( and being many centuries old ) it had its fair share of natural
    body lightening mods going on ( rust and where rust had been ) so ive been slowly getting it back to being a good solid daily / track hack..

    Its a Factory facelifted 86' with all the bells and whistles.. ( aircon, power steering, power windows, power mirrors, black interior, etc and they all work )
    bumpers, lights blah blah blah you know the good shit that we all strive to find.

    Has the usuall mods

    factory bluetop 4age
    TRD 3.2kg Flywheel with TRD CLutch and Pressure plate
    TRD 2-way lsd
    TRD Rear Wing
    TRD Shortstroke 8-way adjustable inserts in custom coilovers ( 8kg fronts, 6 kg rears )
    Nolethane Bushes throughout the car
    KE30 Lower control arms
    Cusco camber plates
    Strut braces, pillar braces
    14x8 and 14x8.5 SSR MKIII's freshly refurbished
    Jun Headers
    Bride Gias II Carbon Recliners
    Redline tails and centre garnish
    Genuine Pre facelift Lip
    40mm RCA's
    JIC Tie Rod ends

    Probably alot of other things ive forgotten... will update as i remember
