Some im sure will have seen my project car on a few other forums i inhabit but thought id make a new one for a new forum and all that so here is my AE86 2 door or how it started
Image

Spec was
- 1.6 16v 4age lump
- HKS cams
- Mikuni 48mm carbs
- TRD fuel pump and FPR
- Full exhaust system
- Fujitsubo
- HKS oil cooler
- HKS oil filter relocation kit
- TRD 2-way diff
- TRD clutch
- TRD Short shift kit
- TRD front coilovers
- KYB rear shocks and TRD springs
- Cusco adjustable arms
- Cusco upper and lower braces
- Nearly all the other suspension bits uprated aswell!
- Full rollcage (dash dodger)
- K Sport bucket seat
- OMP wheel with snap-off boss
- Stripped out rear

I was having fun with it got to the odd track day and just generally getting used to it after my S14 but after a year or so of ownership it went bang. The engine had been getting starved of oil due to the last person rebuilding it using silicone everywhere he didn't have any gaskets for :roll:

After mulling it over i decided an engine conversion wasn't for me so i set about a rebuild. I managed to snag a AWT prepared head for good money and some Cat cams in with the deal.
Image
It would of been rude to mate all this to a standard bottom end as the motor will need to rev up to and maybe beyond 9k to get the best out of the set up so a full bottom end build was done.
Toda pistons and Midwest Rods
Image
The block was machined for the new pistons , painted , and then put back together with a new Oil pump , water pump and baffled sump.
Image
Toda flywheel back on , Helix paddle and TRD plate
Image
The head put back on
Image
Shims adjusted , Cat cams in with Toda adjustable pulleys

While everything was out i decided to tidy up the engine bay as it was a dirty shade of white , wanting to keep it simple and clean i chose to do it black. I know it will be a nightmare to find leaks but it will stay cleaner longer and looks stealthier IMO wich i like.

And the engine back in
Image
Had the Double pulley made into a single and then machined in order to mount the trigger wheel for the Ignition system
Image
Image
I got a whole megajolt set up from trigger wheels to run the ignition

Cooling will now be taken care of by a DW rad , all the shitty old hoses have beem replaced with Samco's in black of course and i have a Mishimoto Fan shroud with twin 12 inch fans to replace the old mechanical one.
Image
This is what was left for the new loom to be built off
Image
Carbs back on and TPS fitted

On the suspension front the TRD fronts and rears were pretty tired out with a few weaps and the bone shaking hard ride sort of confirmed that. Unfortunitly at the time DW didn't have any CS2's in but i managed to get hold of some equally good Greddy Type S coilovers for a decent price.
Image
These went on with some 30mm NCRA's up front aswell as a battle version lock kit with PAS knuckles so should get some nice lock aswell.
Image
For the rear end a full K-sport arm set was purchased and put on. I know K-sport don't make great suspension components but at less than half price i think i got a bit of a bargain.

Styling wise not much to report , I have some carbon front wings to go on. There 25mm wider than standard so will negate a chunk of the NCRA's 25mm extra track but i intend to run wide low ET wheels aswell.
Image
Image
I have a Seibon Carbon bonnet to go on aswell to tie it together and the rear bumper will be painted black to so it will all tie in i hope. Im thinking It will be a sort of Anti Panda hmmmmmm :lol:

I needed a new exhaust aswell as the last owner had put a quiet and very restrictive exhaust on it. I managed to get a Kakimoto exhaust to replace it with though
old
Image
New
Image
Image
Image
It had to be cut and extended to meet the Fujitsubo manifold and delete the CAT but i think this should give a lot more noise from the once quiet rear end that was dround out from the carbs and make for a free flowing yet not to low exhaust.

And this is how she looks at the moment back rolling on her own feet and just waiting for a complete wiring loom to be sorted but hopefully very soon she will be fired up and back into life. To be honest i can't wait as its been getting worked on for 2 years now :(

Camber check :)

Nice build man. Be nice to see how much power it makes when it's all up and running.

Cheers mate :)

Yeah im interested to as ive seen people run similer set ups but nothing 100% the same as what i have so its always going to be an un known. Im thinking somewhere between 180 - 200bhp would be nice with a good torque figure to back it up.
