[K_mac501]

[Danny]

congragulations on joining GTplanet, and may i be the first to welcome you. That's quite a nice car.

 

[K_mac501]

Thnx man, i just borrowed my friends ps2 and im pretty hooked, im thinking of buying one just for gt4.

 

[Danny]

do it. Sell your family on ebay to get extra cash if you must, but your life is poorer without a ps2 and gt4/ gt3

 

[Driftster]

Well here's my sudgestions....
Get some chassis stiffening modifications, because the Hatch version isn't as solid as the coupe......Next get a nice diff if you don't have one already....Then I sudgest goin for the 20V swap.....if you can't do that....a 3sGTE should do fine....

 

[azndrifter318]

geez, u are one lucky mofo!

 

[XzifT]

No offense, but the stereo has gotta go...

 

[K_mac501]

lol, come on now gotta have some thump, i got super lock lsd by os, hks air filter, trd header, custom 2.5inch exhaust, fart can tip which has come off, thats all you need man it actually drifts quite well. im thinkiong of selling it tho and getting an rx-7

 

[K_mac501]

o and last night somebody broke into it and stole my cd player but not my stereo but they cut up my seats wich really piss me off, but i just ordered a mint pair off of ebay =D

 

[Driftster]

Trust me, K-mac the chassis stiffeners will prolong the life of your rear axle by a couple of years. I used to own a AE86 SR-5 with the 16V swap with 200,000 miles on the car, 90,000 miles on the rear axle....and my friends AE86 GTS axle died in 75,000 miles because of the lack of support.

 

[K_mac501]

damn, thnx for the input, got any suggestions for any particular kind, sr-5 are pretty nice but fwd sucks

 

[Driftster]

Sr-5's are RWD guy..... and doesn't matter the brand...just get some reinforcment on the rear, even by just welding some rod iron bars to the frame under the carpet on the hatch.......and some upper and lower rear strut bars

 

[XzifT]

He probabaly came here expecting everyone to be noobs to real cars. Little does he know....

 

[unkn0wn]

niccee

 

[K_mac501]

o **** my bad sr-5 are the coupe model right, i was thinking of an ae92

 

[K_mac501]

what year was it

 

[Driftster]

yeah...Sr-5's the coupe....only prob with it was..it had the 4A engine.....SOHC carburated **** heap...Lol..and it knocked when I first got it sooo bad...it was almost a REQUIRMENT that I had to get a new engine.....

 

[K_mac501]

ouch good choice on the 16v swap, what you got now??

 

[K_mac501]

o and its got 180,000 miles

Listen to Drifster, he has knowledge of all things Automotive. I agree, you need to stiffen up the back, and the suspension is key on the 86 since in stock form it has a tendency to understear.

 

[unkn0wn]

arent sr-5s on the non GT-S (ae86) corollas?
the ae85s right?

 

[Driftster]

AE86 is just the chassis codes that are from....1986 to 1988 I think...i could be wrong..
But the Sr5 was a 1987 SR5 with AE86 engraved in the engine compartment and on the door insert.....so to the best of my knowledge it's an AE86


The GTS is also a AE86....just.,,.....better..

i thought they had 3As. I'm pretty sure....but o well, not that important.

Back seats, tear 'em out.
Seat belt? tear 'em out
flooring? tear'em out
audio system? tear' it out

your 86 now is light, very light..

now,
A) get a new suspension
B) get a rollercage
C)Bucket Seats with 5 point harness
D) wheels.., lots of wheels
E) LSD.. I think 2 way would work fine..

that's it for now..
good luck..

 

[Driftster]

Some did....They came with 4A-Cs and 3A-c's.....Don't worry...I know you tried to bust me.....but it isn't going to work.

 

[K_mac501]

the gt-s had 4age engines those are the 1.6 dohc engines

First off, welcome to GTP. Now, I would recommend suspension. I'm not sure what's good out there, but here I only go with TRD. You can take everything out of the car if you want that small performace gain, but my Trueno has full interior with radio (original I might add, just newer Toyota speakers) and I do fine. Everyone else basically said everything else.

It's funny how many people here try to be experts on these cars.

 

[Dark Skyline]
