MikeN Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 My Glanza got picked up an hour or so ago, so it's a good time to introduce my new car. Since knowing my Glanza was sold i was looking for something RWD or maybe a 4WD. Cars i was looking for where an S14, Evo 4, Impreza type R, Mr2's. Untill i saw this car on Driftworks. It was for sale before but the guy selling it wanted to keep it. I told my brother on the phone that if that car would ever be for sale again i would buy it, what would you know, the next day it was for sale again I always had a soft spot for Trueno's since watching Inital D, like most people Altough i found them way overpriced and stated i would never buy one with these ridicoulus prices i found one that's just perfect. So next week i'll be in Birmingham picking it up. Some pictures of it now in the UK:Specs:1986 ae86imported it my self was a grade 4, 69 000 miles, done only 8000 miles in a yearfujisubo exhaust manifoldhks air filterhks spark plugs trd leadsoil filter relocation kitcusco brake master stoppernew clutch master cylinder recently changed brake disksproject mu D1 spec brake padsBraided Brake Hoses6 point roll cageomari gauges oil tempoil presurewater tempexhaust tempRSR exhaust decatedwax oiled underneathnardi steering wheelquick release steering bossTRd gear knobJUBRIDE fenders (genuine not copies)RUNFREE side skirts and rear bumperEASTBEAR mirrorslate spec front bumper with early lipHIDs 6000kTRD wingHAYASHI STREET wheels 15x10j -25 allround (i bought these brand new) the only set in this size in the countryFalken tyres allround 225 50 15 JIC magic coilovers on frontPOTENZA JIMKANA rear shocks ajustableTRD rear springs not sure of ratingajustable panahrod not sure of makeCUSCO strutbrace front and rearsony mp3 player and vibe subCan't wait to go and pick it up.

Pav Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 how much does an example like this go for?About 6-8k depending on spec and condition. I cant remember how much Mikens was up for.Either way, its a lot of money for a 1986 car (thanks to the drift culture and Initial D), but very much worth it! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pav Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Thanks guys! Can't wait to pick it up.Glad you didn't buy it I would never forgive myself if i damage it, so i'm still not sure if i'm gonna drift it.lol I bet you are! There were some other minters around when I was looking but they were asking upwards of 9k for one!It'll be very tempting to drift in it but Im sure you'll exercise discretion on that one Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Probably have to get some different wheels for that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Probably have to get some different wheels for that.6k is a good price for what you got there. I would love a black one but the white looks just as sexy.hmm you might have to find a set of thin wheels to use one day a year lol. What about some steelies? Unless of course the police are very strict on this in Holland too Quote Link to post Share on other sites
