beautful car........................do something with the wheels please.

umm no. those rims are sexual chocolate. k thx.

edit: good find on the car. very fun car to drive.

[Eklectrick]

Man, I am jealous. my brother has been looking for one for a while now. almost flew out to a couplea places to pick some up but they always sold too fast. now he seems to be giving up. I'd look for one myself, but I'm pretty happy with my s13. When you decide to sell it in a few months let me know and I'll have my brother fly out and buy it from you.

[drifter]

Really? Awesome, I'll keep your bro in mind Eklectrick....I'm just worried about once the odometer reaches 300k miles....I'm scared it won't retain its value in a couple of years, but I've heard that it's actually still going up. Weird.

[lessthanjakejohn]

put in a 20v!

[drifter]

Nah, I like the 4AGE....too much power in a hachi makes it lose driveability.....

[lessthanjakejohn]

its like 10 extra hp > and its a 4AGE

Editok ok so maybe its 150 claimed and 160 claimed but realworld crank is supposedly lower (140 actual) versus 130 or so

[drifter]

Oh crap, my bad, I keep thinking the 20v is the TRD super engine that came in the AE111....oh wait, yeah it is....ok well it runs 160 stock, but I don't wanna swap out my redtop yet.....

[Megaseth]

the TRD engine is the "same" motor, kinda. its the same motor with about $10,000 worth of work. drop in a 4AGZE 20v, that'll be fun to drive.

you guys talk like these rare toyota engines come a dime a dozen and that they're simple drop ins. not the case for a 4agze. if you want a direct conversion, you'll need a ae86 levin clip from japan (supercharged of course). that costs $$$. the cheaper, yet harder route will be a more attainable fwd s/c clip or an mr2sc clip. the 2 last options will have you doing extra work because those engines are in a fwd configuration (buying new or custom fabbing header, intake mani, water piping, s/c hanger etc...)

stick with your stock redtop for now. it has plenty of power. if you're wanting to do a swap, i'd say a 20 valve would be your best option for cost to performance/ease of installation. just make sure you have the smog hookups .

you can pm me if you want more info about this or other swaps.

[Megaseth]

I know about the 20v TRD motor. its not a simple find at a junk yeard, its a racing motor designed for atlantic racing. the 20v itself comes in only the FWD cars. so either way, a 20v 4AGE or 4AGZE is going to be a pain to install.and they dont cost that much to pick one up. and even if you want a 16v 4AGZE, they came in the AE92s, also FWD.

[Onizuka]

http://www.jspec.com can do anykind of special order you want for parts, but they wont do engines. You can get special order engines from Jarco, cause they have a dude in japan that hand picks the motors for their company only.

[lessthanjakejohn]

jarco...I hear thats a real good places for toyota engines

[Megaseth]

Venus-auto is also a good place for motors of all brands.

[Onizuka]

i dunno about venus, i have heard they arn't the greatest place for quality motors....

[Megaseth]

i havent heard too much about them that is bad, but the pics of their engine yard looks like just piles of motors, no real quality clips.

[silviaDRAG]

cool ride!!!! I still love how the ae86 looks and the engine is one of the most realible one to. hope you a great time with the car. and if you sell it i'm willing buy it from you.

[drifter]

Dang....I've already gotten a couple of offers on my car....crazy stuff man....

[Onizuka]

here is jarcos inventory

http://www.jarcoinc.com/inventory/

where else can you get a AE111 blacktop motor with less than 10,000 miles on it? only $4,000!!!!!!

[lessthanjakejohn]

wow, this gets me thinking about a MK1 MR2 again

[Onizuka]

i love old toyotas, new ones just suck *** in my opinion (with the one exception of the MR2)

It seems the only way to find a good 86 is to get one from a old person that just used it as a beater.
