I was going to post this in the garage section but I guess you want to keep the newbs out..
Perfectly understandable (You can move it there if you want) Cool

^Plz Do not take that as cockyness^ haha

and I figured since longgrain's ae86 build was on this board you might want to see mine as well?
__

Really Boring stuff:
I lived in IL for the first 18 years of my life.
I had an Lowered green Zenki S14 for my first car.
Still my favorite car.

Totaled that when i was on the highway and hit the brakes hard right after they salted and hit a big patch of it.. (Not street racing or any dumbshit.)
If I was a good driver I could of saved it, but i was a bitchass high-schooler who never went 60mph+ sideways before haha..

Sooo I moved most of the s14 parts into a s13 shell i got for 350$
Powertrain, leather interior, front five lug, blah blah..

I moved out to Arizona and it got stolen out of my apartment complex =[

Didn't have much money so figured I would try getting into hachi's since they are cheap on the west coast..

Got this:
My Introduction/History. AE86/Ka86 Build Photo14
Salvaged Kouki GTS with suspension for 2250 from Cali


I learned the basic's of drifting with this in the parking lots of phoenix industrial district haha





One Night we were at the spot when forrest showed up in his old s14:
My Introduction/History. AE86/Ka86 Build Photo-15-1

I'm not gonna to lie and say "we busted sweet tandemz together yo'z!"

But he did with some of the better driver's there.. haha
He crashed into a dumpster to the right of this picture (out of shot), on a later date.
Just to then come out with his s13.4 race car on the trailer a few weeks later right after it got painted that black/grey color..
One of the fondest memories of my life..
...
meh..

anyway..

I found my current shell when i was looking for a shop to do a cage and buy a bunch of other stuff for it, like a manual rack.
It turned out to be alot cheaper to just buy this car. So I sold my car to a friend and then the current journey began Rolling Eyes


1985 Corolla GTS Hatchback Toyota Super Red II

Boring stuff:
Kouki tail lights,
Kouki hatch (no wiper, no wing),
JDM gas door (same as USDM but with kanji)
Kouki JDM front bumper w/ zenki lip,
SR5 manual mirrors,
H4 Conversion headlights.
Jdm kouki bumper with zenki lip that use to be on Chase Goodman's AE86.
Yes, that Purple "Silvia Saint" Chase, but we don't consider it such a good thing haha

Better stuff:
TRD Japan Springs 8kg/mm front, 6kg/mm rear
KYB AGX in the back
Blown Stock Shocks in the front >_<
custom steel braided brake lines/ clutch line.
Energy suspension bushings in the rear,
TRD bushings in front
Kouki rearend (bigger axles),
rare manual rack with manual tilt column.
Custom underdiff 2.5in exhaust,
Walbro 255lph,
Koyo 2 row radiator
Suspicious Garage sr/ka kit (engine cross member, trans cross member, downpipe, and driveshaft)
Custom Fully Tig'd 4 point roll cage built to NHRA spec.
Vertex Knock Off kit
S14 Auto KA with S13 cams, egr removed, single belt conversion
?Peakboost? KA turbo mani
Celica supra rims
Bride VIOS 3 Seat
Random Seat bracket
5 point harness
Everything on a custom switch panel wired with relays and fuses blah blah
Battery Relocated with box..
Momo hub + Nardi Taniguchi wheel (Momo pictured)
Curcuit sports quick release
T3 Negative Roll Center Adjuster
T3 Panhard bar
Welded Diff
Exedy clutch
*First SR86 and KA86 in the state of AZ*

I drove 3 events in AZ
Half of two events and a full 2..


In my second event I got to what some might call "tandem" but it was more like follow..
1. The other car's have an rb20 on more than stock boost and a built SR
2. It looked alot closer in the car lol hahaha

Also keep in mind my front stock front shocks are blown since i bought the car and still are.. Embarassed
(and have a heavy ass KA to control) =P

Bad quality Vids:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A4hTqY0doO4
-Ls1 FC George actually "Tandems" with someone in that last vid lol

Linking that longer straight between 3-4 is all that matters on that track =/
__


Things ppl may say:
What's with the flat black?
Previous owner "Panda'd" the car..

Speaking of the previous owner, here are the pics of when he had it:

My Introduction/History. AE86/Ka86 Build IH0J8635L
^Didn't come with the car when I bought it Crying or Very sad
__


Next Question is, So this car is bought not Built?
I wish haha. The car didn't come with the rims, Power train, any swap wiring, any cool Interior..
It was a caged version of the car I already had.
With sr/ka mounts =]
And I've taken everything off and put it back on/replaced for some reason or another during the car's life.. Rolling Eyes

Why did you put in a KA instead of an SR?
SR was 2500
KA was 250
Didn't have money for the SR regardless of that =[
Learning to slide this POS with 140ish hp before 200+ hp will come in handy in the long run =]

So you street drift?
Not anymore, Keeping my driving record clean.
I'd still be down to spectate but can't be caught participating.

Why is it so high?
I've never owned Coilovers and have already cut the trd 8 and 6k springs that everyone and their mother usually runs on ae86s down quite a bit..

Getting coils soon
Even at it's current height since the KA is a much taller engine the bottom of the oil pan is still pretty dented. 0_0

Why Does your fitment suckass?
I had slip on 5mm spacers all around that brought the front together nicely since the Negative Roll Center Adjusters effectively give you you around 10-15mm front track.
But I gave them to my friend in trade for a Bar Tap shit knob that matched my car haha

In the rear I had a 25mm bolt on project kics spacer that had nissan thread pitch on top of the aforementioned slip on 5s for +30mm in the rear.. and I sold those =[

Haha, it was good for celica supra's at least
My Introduction/History. AE86/Ka86 Build Photo3-2=/


Spacing out 14 by 7 wheels isn't really worth it to me, I'll just get some sportwacks or some diamond racing wheels after I finish the suspension so I'll know what offset i need.


Anyway, Hope to maybe meet some people on the board..
Maybe drive a few events?
Maybe even post something worth while on this forum?

Who knows..

1000+ miles back home to IL and during the snow storms even:

My Introduction/History. AE86/Ka86 Build Snow2

This is was taken before I had to clean it off to go to work >_<

One of the few advantages of being so high I guess.
_________

Those long champs are 14x8.5 and 14x10.5 I believe?
Negative offsets.. Would almost of costed as much as the SR haha..

I prefer 15s ard 16s personally but they looked good.

He got those wheels in a straight trade for some 14x7 positive offset rotas 0_o
Guy didn't like how the Longchamps fitted/rubbed.. Suspect

Wooowwwwwwwwww.. right?

I was trying to get megans for the ae86 for the last few months.. but they were sold out everywhere, I had more than enough money..

Then I got an interveiw with a dealership in michigan that was gonna pay some of my school tuition if they hired me..

Ended up getting the job and I am now moving to michigan for 2 years.. all my coil money is going to my deposit and rent and a bunch of other unfun shit..
fml

Owell, at least my car is at the same ride height already as everyone there =/
