Kinda Old school,

[eraser4g63]

So I just picked up a new project car after selling my RX-7, This is my 1986 Toyota Carolla GT-S Sport Coupe. Has 218XXX mile on it.
Sorry these were taken with an iPhone.

The rule is that if that generation were produced before the cutoff you're fine anyways.

You sold your turbo II and got that? :crazy:

Yeah, Its a little rough around the edges but give me a little bit and it will be back on Par if not nicer than the T2. Plus I got sick of spending $300-$500 a month to keep it running.

Yeah, unfortunately those Corollas do fit in the OS mold.

But glad you joined us. Later, QD.

Wow, I am picking up a bit of animosity towards the AE chassis from you, Its ok mine is not going the typical route you see with these.

Hahah! It'll never be as good as the wagon, though.

Not necessarily animosity. Those cars are way too common for me to really enjoy. I'm not knocking the car. I think it's a bad ass car from the 80s for sure.

And I'm sure yours will be cool as fuck. As long as you bring it to our meets. Later, QD.

so... you went from a fantastic car, to a pure shit ride because why?

[quickdodge®]

^^^ We don't need that in here. Later, QD.

[eraser4g63]

so... you went from a fantastic car, to a pure shit ride because why?

Because I had almost 30k invested in my rx7 and not too much to show for it. Plus it was time for a change.

[JITB]

Thanks man, and no engine swap for this car unless it is a formula atlantic engine/drivetrain.

lotus motor?

[eraser4g63]

lotus motor?

No there was a formula Atlantic motor based off the 4age that spun to 12k and made 240 na hp. Cost around $30,000 new from a company in Cali.

[dragoncelica]

^^^^ I say to much money for 240HP and way too much for a 4ag IMO, Damn a 900 HP V8 dont even get up to 18 G's for real whomever pays that much for a 240 hp 4AG got to be stupid as FUCK! but again that is my opinion!

[RollaAce]

Thought they were $10-15k at most. My 3tc in starlet is 240 whp n/a and only cost $4k. It's blued/bal, revs to 9,000, has 45mm webers. venolia pistons, pauter rods, 306 cam with 518 lift, 13:1 comp bored to 2.0.

What scared me bout rotaries is fact that the apex seals and gaskets cost up to $1000. Had an 84 rx7 but i gave it to a friend who helps me with my cars, still runs good, doesnt smoke and has less than 80k miles. Those cars are ok til u have to fix them. And not many people know how to work on them.

there is a formula atlantic motor, that comes from lotus, and looks EXACTLY like a 4ag. thats what i was thinkin of.

[Big_Dave]

lotus motor? Shut up Rob! Lol!!!

[Glides]

yea me to. ill have another someday

Dude. Gimmie the damm title for that thing and i'll go get it out of hock before you fuck up and let it get sold or crushed. Cause if it does and you don't try to save it or let someone else try to save it, I might just crack you in the eye next time I see you.

[z32smurf]

looks like a good project I want one so bad!!!

[imbatman]

nice switch:goodjob:

[87 Turbo II]

nice switch:goodjob:

not really. TII > stock AE86

HOWEVER

potential of AE86 > potential of TII

[eraser4g63]

not really. TII > stock AE86

HOWEVER

potential of AE86 > potential of TII

the only thing stock is the engine and body panels. This car has already beat my Turbo II around little tally by a full second with me driving and 150% less horse power ( I am mediocre at best.)
