Just bought an AE86, need some advice

[Sport1.3]

Well after getting out of cars for awhile I just picked up a cherry 85 SR5 hatchback and just needed some advice on a good performance shop to take the car to. This is my first Toyota, I mostly know VW's. Also are there any junkyards with these cars in it? I just need random parts like turn signal plastic, mirror, etc.

Thanks
Robert

What are you looking to have done at these shops? 4ag conversion? there are gonna be few junk yards with good GTS parts in them.

Yeah just a shop with some good knowledge of the car that I can trust and won't jack things all up. I do plan on doing a conversion later on but for now just somewhere I can take the car to for any routine problems that may arise.

I've already checked some yards and the only ones I come across are the fwd corollas

A good way to find part car/parts cars is to drive around the neighborhoods, take a different route than u normally take. That's how i found Barracuda and 85 sr5 sitting up, u never know, i stop anyone driving an older yota and ask questions.

I have parts from a 85 gts coupe, stripped the whole car.

well unfortunately there arent many specialty shops for that specific car let alone Toyota in general.

Remember that the AE92 and AE101 corollas have alot of useful parts on the you can use even though they are FWD.

Yeah I don't understand why there aren't any toyota specific places, I mean theres tons for hondas and VWs When I went to the pull a part the only thing I got were some replacement knobs for my climate control panel which I thought was pretty sweet. Wish I didn't live in an apt or I'd get a parts car and just use it, probably be cheaper in the long run. Thanks for the info you guys.
