Another nice 86 from NZ!
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
