Did any ADM sprinters come with a 4age from factory?
Im pretty sure mine is a ADM but on the compliance plate it says the engine is a 4age.

Would love to see a pic of your compliance plate.
It'd be great to finally see one of the myths being proven

I have a feeling something isn't right, I will put a picture up tomorrow afternoon. What do the vin numbers usually start with on the ADMs?

But the vin on the plate and firewall match unless the whole firewall was changed?

Hope its just gonna be a track hack. Essentially the shell is worthless unless you can find a wrecked ae86 with plates redo it

Front panel swap.
Sorry, it's an adm ae86 with an ae82 twincam firewall swap.

That's some good lateral thinking to get your 4AGE AE86 registered without hassle. It's just an RWD AE82. Who's ever going to know the difference.

... now I'm off to find a ST185 firewall so I can easily rego a 3SGTE Sprinter.

Some of the pits guys are pretty cluey.
we used to service a charade 3cyl turbo. Nice car.
it ran out of registration and the owner took it to the pits.
the inspector noticed something odd about the firewall atound the comp plate. And he got a hammer ana screw driver and started bashing it ( lucky he was correct !!!) And it had a fake firewall section. So the car was taken by forensics and they ended up catching the guy that did it, as there was a finger print on the backside if the fire wall plate !.

Was a nice lil car too.

No doubt it is illegal. No doubt it is possible to register this vehicle. I wouldn't want to be caught by the police though

No there were never any sold thru Toyota Dealerships in Australia with the 4AGE, there were a couple GTV from memory brought in the early days
for rally etc and were given road rego for rally use. I nearly brought one about 15 yrs ago.

Didn't they need to bring in 100 for homogulation like they did with the 32. Or were the 4ac ones sufficient to meet the requirements
