  1. Next update, we sanded the front end and the doors down as seen in this picture, same outcome on the other side.

    Then we used etch primer on the bonnet and arches after wiping the panels down, will probably need another coat because we ran out :(

    And as you can see, a bit of filler needs putting on that edge.

    Just remembered about a spec list I got sent with all the goodies on my ae86, so here it goes...

    Ultra Direct Ignition System

    2 Rad Fans
    Solid Engine Mounts

    Drivetrain:

    TRD Single Plate Clutch

    Suspension Components:
    Greddy Full Tap Type R Coilovers With Adjustable Top Mounts
    Extra Lock Kit
    Front And Rear Strut Braces (front may be a cusco, not entirely sure and the rear has an upper and lower brace)

    TRD Full Bush kit
    Konig Rewind Wheels

  2. I'll try to update this post as soon as anything else happens, but I can post a few odd bits that I've done in the meantime.

    For kickstarters, these are the braces that were made up for the front lights.

    Then I took them off, I sanded them, sprayed primer on them, then painted them black and reinstalled them.

    And I also decided to clean the cam cover up (was bored a wee bit).

  3. So it's been a while since I've actually posted anything here (I didn't forget I set this up i swear).

    That and it's been a while since anything has been happening to my ae86, so i'll give a rundown and provide pics at a later date.

    So since that time, we've tweaked the front wings so the doors can open and close without actually catching.

    The front end which has been tubed wasn't exactly put on straight or made to look good, so we've pulled it back straight and started aligning the front end better, as well as add extra bracing so the light don't bounce all over the show (was a teeside drift missile basically before i bought it).

    The plan now is to mount the front and rear bumpers properly, clean the welds up on the bash bar, paint the tubing at some point, then the rest of the prep work can be done (flatted the doors and roof back ready for primer and paint)

  4. So I ordered the ukstarletowners stickers around a month ago and there's still no sign of them, just wondering if there's some kind of backlog or something along those lines

    Cheers, Kie

  5. Hi everyone, I was just wondering if anyone here has any of the parts listed below, what kind of prices they would be and where about the said parts are based

    The parts i'm looking for are:

    Rear strut brace (either Cusco/Ultra Racing/others 2 point (basically needs to mount to the strut tops, not the plates for the OEM))

    Standard 1996 Glanza V front bumper and bonnet (1AO paint code)

    Mk3 GT turbo grille badge (unless I'd have to buy an entire grille)

    Catch can with breather (without AN fittings, just slip on)

    GT turbo interior plastics (boot plastics and passenger footwell as pictured here)
    image0.jpg

    Possibly some cheap or cool 7J/195 wheels as a second set, but not sure about this one yet

     

    If possible for any of the bits I've said, can you provide pics of the part please

     

    Thanks, Kie
