ae86 are god cars because their a cult car in japan. Think about it, 950 kg, rwd, short wheel base. Their a classic toyota. It was keichi tsuchiya which helped bring them to glory, he used to do downhill touge with his ae86. He was able to defeat pretty much any car on the downhill ala initial d. And the sound of a na 1.6 revving its guts off is awesome

The AE86 is nothing more than just a fad here in Australia.

Maybe its something in Japan, it certainly isnt here in Australia. If it wasnt for Initial D, no one would give a shit about it.

That car is ugly, an absolute piece of shit. It belongs at the fkn wreckers. The paint scheme is ugly and so are the mags.

That is my opinion and I am entitled to it, no I am not jealous. If you must flame me, do so, then afterwards, please read my signature.

Thank You.

you are a tool

Thanks Guys :D

Obaybe, I understand my car is not for everyone. If you don't like it, that's cool. I didn't buy it for you, or anyone else and I didn't buy it because of Initial D.

You're not the first to hate it and not the last.

All I can say is see you on the street.

    • Another question sorry, what stainless do u use in the turbo external WG plumb back piping? Is it 321, 316 or 304?
    • Right, its been a while for updating this car, but I made some small but important progress today. In the end I bought an Ecutek dongle from the Australian distributor Tunehouse (for local hardware support) but have gone with a remote tune from Racebox in the US (because they have done millions of these, and I could not find any tuner where I could access the tune anyway as they are all password locked). The App is reasonably easy to work with, but the PC software reminds me of Haltech's ECU Manager that you need to use with the Plat Pro ECUs, it is a nightmare.  Anyway, I sent the details over, got back a tune file and a request for data logs. I finally got a chance to access a private test track today as they want redline logs in 3rd and 4th, and have sent them back for the first round of reviews. The main difference in the tune is going from 1.0 (stock) to 1.3 bar (19psi), although I'm sure is a lot of other stuff in the background. Keeping in mind this is a dead stock car with 125,000klm, this is what the App's performance test claimed: Before After Interesting to note that both 400m tests had the same terminal speed (158klm/h) but different ETs. And no, the speed limiter seems to be higher than that at 186kl/h. Summary of the key logged parameters for the 3rd and 4th gear runs were: Those little turbos were certainly whizzing at 200,000rpm+.  Also I'm really not that excited about oil pressure 55psi at redline so I think I'll go thicker than 5w30 (nissan recommend 0w20....) and see if that improves it. Other than that (and the big boost spike....) everything looks good as a start to me.
    • Just one more post to show the final result and the original "janky" solution for a laugh. Everything feels really tight and no wobbling at all, very pleased 🙂
