    Haha thanks!
    Took ages to clear everything out & get a good shot
    (Running out of space :p too many old parts laying around)

    appreciate it though!
    Rhd japans the only place ive seen who stock them, other than that they pop up on yahoojp rarely
    Pretty uncommon from what ive seen

    Best of luck!

    You can buy them from the company that makes them, power craft japan, you'd need somebody like jesse streeter to do the dealings though

    Been busy the last week or so

    Pulled the diff out, it is infact a tomei!


    Few parts arrived
    Braided brake lines - adr approved which is sweet
    Golden eagle vacuum block
    Rear wheel bearings


    New h7 bulb connectors for the fogs arrived & wired up
    Alot cleaner than terminal connections


    Flywheel machined by ABS Auto


    Ajps order arrived finally!
    - lock spacer
    - shifter rebuild kit
    - traction brackets
    - adjustable panhard rod
    - new hardware



    Went down to an automotive paint supplier to see what i can do about the orange colour
    I can mix paint at work but colourspec have a small colour chart with a handful of oranges
    None were even close

    The guy at the paint store pulled out his colour chart - 2 full pages of orange shades

    I narrowed it down to this colour, bought the fuel door along & stood in the sun

    Its virtually dead on the colour
    Got it mixed up & painted the inside of the fuel flap & the inner part on the body, where the fuel neck is?
    Painted this evening so i'll have a sus in the morning, looked real good already!

    Got a hydraulic press too so i can do my bushes, ball joints, rear wheel bearings & uni joints
    The LCA bushes & ball joints are out & gave the LCA's a good clean & paint up
    Fitting new parts tomorrow hopefully

    Alots been going on

    first off paint
    The colour i had mixed up isnt the right shade :/
    very slightly off
    Took the doors off & painted the jams & fuel flap
    Its close but aint perfect


    I'm going a different direction now & will be getting it professionally resprayed, everything will be painted other than the bay & interior - will have full trim so will never be seen anyways

    I want it to be perfect, i have a colour decided but you'll have to wait & see
    Heh heh :p

    Some parts arrived too
    New engine & gearbox mounts, clutch slave, shifter boot, fpr adapter, Jdm kouki a/c decal, braided fuel line, jdm start up guide for the drivers door




    Got some smallport injectors + rail - had a set but sold them many months ago derppp
    Gave them a thorough clean

    Found an a/c button at a wreckers off an ae82 from memory
    Car doesnt have a/c though but i feel it will finish off the look nicely


    Been working heaps on suspension

    Now going to run suzuki sierra rear shocks in the rear
    Left is sierras, right is standard stroke 86 :o

    They are so small!


    Up from im running st185 celica shocks
    40mm shorter than standard 86 struts

    After smashing the hell out of the rusted gland nut i found a set of trd yellows!
    Sweet as!

    Ghetto as spacer work was going on though :s

    Left celica, right trd's


    I then measured up the strut & worked out how much i needed cut out
    Got it cut - dont have access to a drop saw
    Then started welding


    A while later they are done!


    New wheel bearings arrived too so fitted them up
    As well as the lca bushes & ball joints



    Smallport dizzy to run coilpacks


    Made some internal filters - credit goes to a member on ae86dc & club4ag




    I dislike the 'sock' style
    So thought it was an awesome idea

    I got some low density foam from clark rubber - can see your hand through it say easily
    Fly screen from mitre 10 - again see though & the 'stronger' stuff
    Hard to explain but doesnt bend easily
    Then some gasket sheets cut to size

    From throttle to trumpet it goes
    -gasket
    -fly screen
    -foam
    -fly screen
    -gasket

    Will use some filter oil of some description to trap the fine dust particals later down the track

    In theory it should work quite well
    Fly screen will capture the larger particles
    foam smaller particles
    Then the second fly screen for safety

    Also the stronger fly screen would prevent the throttles from sucking up the foam

    Im hope it doesnt choke the engine too much at lower rpms but see how it goes
