Now theres a man who's fixed a few bent corolla's in his day
hey man are you having issues with too much camber on one side and not enough on the other if so the rails are bent to one side as the engine xmember will hold them together (if that isnt bent). you could pull the rails of an 86 with a block and tackle and a car and a tree easily, they are weak as piss and you wouldnt have to take anything off-out, just losen the engine xmember bolts. if u want help on figuring out if-where its bent and how to fix it let me know!
AE86 THE BEST

Thats exactly the problem. Was told it had a rail replaced... if it's been hit since well.....
Drivers side - Sigma LCA with cambertop @ full pos - 5 degrees negative
Pass. Side - sigma LCA with cambertop @ full negative - 4 deg negative...
Thats a pretty big difference. So Ill either get the rails pulled or just rock some adj. LCA's...
More than welcome to come have a look if you like eddie.
I thought the exact same thing![]()

More than welcome to come have a look eddie. Im hoping it's not as bad as I think It'll be...
Im up in modbury, whereabouts do you haunt?
After some careful though and consideration, Ive put up the entire driveline for sale, to buy a 3SGE beams and 6 speed, and YR22 tarago diff.
It'll make more power and torque than my 4AGE ever will, and should be pretty bullet proof. It'll have better drivability too. I will miss the cams and quads though LOL.
Ill be fabbing up a single throttle plenum, getting some custom headers and a new 2.5 inch exhaust made, Using the Current model Adaptronic ECU with a patch loom, Also going to a RCI alloy 43ltr fuell cell, with a 2.5 ltr surge tank and external 044. Shaun @ Boostworx will also be tuning the car again.
Looking to run a Super-single clutch, probably cusco or ORC, and the diff will be locked.
While the motor is out, Ill get the car put on a jig and have it straightened, and hopefully have enough spare cash to get a full cage done. Ill seam and spot weld at the same time, then put my F+R guards on and respray the car. At work we have our own spray booth, so Ill be doing it myself with a little help from the painter.
However... it all hinges on me being able to sell my current driveline, so fingers crossed. If it doesnt sell, Ill probably re-ring it and start driving the shit out of it.
