^what he said. Although, I would own AW11 if one could be found for reasonable price.. but their prices are usually pretty high since most of them are owned by enthusiasts who have taken good care of them.

 

[Bram Turismo]

Perfect in all ways 👍

Prices aren't too bad over here. You can pick up ones which need work (mostly to change rusty panels) from about £500. Decent ones are just over £1k and a mint one is nearer £3k.

 

[Leonidae]

well, our prices START from 5000€..

 

[Time_Attack]

Mine ran me about $2,000usd.

 

[Azuremen]

What? That surely must be a joke... I could get an SW20 for prices like that, in US dollars. Hell, I've seen MR-Ss going for $9000.

 

[homeforsummer]

We can also pick up SW20s in the UK for about £800 Yer... I'm not smug at all...

 

[Leonidae]

nope, sadly it's not a joke.. Cheapest I could find.

[Azuremen]

Oh damn it's Yoshi.

And Leonidae, that '86 you linked is stock. The front bumper looks different, at the very least.

But still, I payed about 4 grand USD for an 87 with a 20Valve 4A-GE, suspension, brakes, lines, shifter, Momo seats, and such.

Spoon everything + Mugen twin-loop = FAIL.

Surely he was just trying to set the weigh distribution slightly more rearward instead of just showing off......dot......dot.......dot

Having owned both a Spoon N1 and a Mugen Twin Loop, amongst others, I can tell you why he went with the Twin Loop. Aside from the fact it's utterly loud, the piping is also very small, and if you happen to also have the Spoon B-Pipe, full of bottlenecks.

That is correct. It is stock, and only new thing it has is the rims. The front bumper seems to be either slightly customized or perhaps it's just painted.. but that's about the price what AW11s go for here. even the high mile beaters are over 3k. It's cheaper to get E36 coupe here..

 

[Small_Fryz]

what is this car??

Very nice...

 

[Leonidae]

It's Corolla KE20/KE25 or younger KE30. Funny fact about these old pushrod toyotas..: they had hemispherical combustion chambers

 

[Rotary Junkie]

My school's 1970-something Peugeot powered forklift has a Hemi too.

It's not really anything special.

 

[Leonidae]

tell that to dodge fanboys.

 

[Rue]

Wow, that's a coincidence I saw one Sunday evening and I don't think I have ever seen one before that...

 

[Time_Attack]

Not bad.

What's a twin-loop?

Basically the piping goes in the muffler twice, to make the exhaust a bit quieter... The one in that picture isn't a real Mugen item, however.

Thanks 👍

Also thanks for the image Time_Attack

Pictures speak one thousand words

Quick interruption of an Italian import.

No matter how many people say otherwise, I love the Scaglietti and man have you heard those things on full throttle?!

You're preachin' to the choir bud.

It's trying to be a late 50's Corvette...

And it doesn't look too bad doing so.

Although I'd rather the lip spoiler be taller and right at the trailing edge of the taillights and lower-down bit of the decklid.

Never been a fan of the Scuglyetti, personally...
