I've been around Japanese cars for a few years all of which stemed from a honda engine conversion I did in my mini when I was 17.
Here are some of my other cars I currently own.
This is my first experiance of ae86 ownership but after few patient years I thought it was about time I made my dream a reality.
At the start of the year I started scowering the japanese auction sites for a sutible 86 to import. After a few weeks of searching id found a car that I HAD to buy! So I got in contact with OPJP who had just started importing cars for customers here in the uk.
After 6 long weeks she finally arrived!
She needed some TLC!
I got straight to work.
A few more jdm goodies some expected and some unexpected
a few coats of underseal later
A little clean before the first drift day
Shropshire drift day
Dropped a headlight
so bought some more raybrigs.
split my ssr mesh wheels ready for rebuild. Thought about reverse mounting but after some thought i kept down the safer route
A small hint of whats to come in the foreground!!
Extended my lcas 25mm and strengthend them along with some battle version 2 spacers.
Wheel centres painted.
Wheels rebuilt, lips polished, new hardware and all sealed in carbon collecting wheel sealant
After a long few months of waiting, confusion and mistakes from hmrc my car is finally on the road.
Heres a little hint of what the future holds for this little corolla (excuse the face)
I'll be watching this quite closely!
