Toyrismo esh13 Granny Spec to My Spec

[Rice86]

Just wanting to share my new Joy rider

After a 8month build process of an AE86, it was a race to which would finish first, the project AE86 or my wallet...as you can tell, my wallet won the race and the project AE86 was just sitting there for a while...
Came down to a hard decision that i was procrastinating for a long hard month, it was time to part out the project as i figured if i spent more on the car to get it where i wanted it, i would of easily gotten myself a JDM Trueno, so that was the next step

parted out the project, got a bit more then 50% of what i spent on it which was a good sign, was slowly saving for the other half but as the weeks came by, money was going out the window, so i got a bank loan for the JDM Trueno.
Loan cleared, and looking for a complete MINTER of a trueno was a shocking wait , basically was a bad 2-3months of car searching, my importer (not going to name who as people may take it the wrong way) was only able to find me 2 Truenos that fit my preference and got both cars got checked out and both still failed under rust inspection to my preference..yes im a picky mofo since i already was driving my sister kouki Trueno everyday of the week that hardly had any rust, so i wasn't going to settle for second best =[...

here were the two:




FUCKING CRAZY??!! i was excited as shit, but reports came back and both cars were a no no..
these were the only 2 decent cars that came up within 2months of searching....clean JDMness was getting DRY!

so anyways...i lost the Trueno as my daily as my sister moved up to the Sun Shine State..thing goes bloody hard thanks to my 16V engine i had rebuilt by Sprinterman John, engine specs can be seen in my AE86 project build in my Sig =p

blah blah blah, needed another daily for work ASAP!! jumped on carsales the same day i found out the Trueno was going to another state, found this MINTER s13 CA18de within about 15min, went to sus out the car and bloody minter of a s13! dropped mulas in the owners face and 1hour later, i was driving it home, i dont fuck around when it comes to mint cars cause as we all should know, they dont come easy, and they sell fast

Modifications:none at all, pictures dont lie
Borrowed some 15x7 with re001 from a mates AE86 for the day
so heres the bad boy out at OzMazda at Wakefield 4.12.10
Best Lap time: 1.27








was a hell of a day, bad luck to Matt and his KE though =[ wanted to see that thing rip it up at wakie
Best thing about this car, i brang the car to the track, didnt bring a single tool, had my fun on the track, drove home with air con and no worries at all, and the plan is to keep it that way

Already got some 15's comming from Jland, got 180sx SR20det brakes that will be going in shortly with better disc and pads, haven't decided what Coilover type i want to use yet, Diff...haven't even thought that far as its not needed yet

Enjoy for now
