I just saw on toymods a group buy for gearbox bell housing adaptors to fit w55 box to 4a motors, so it must be an issue with the weaker T50 box as you mentioned

I may have to read a bit more on this

I was also thinking about painting the AE86 Ford blueprint to match my R33

Are going to do the same?

HEHEHE your line blueprint too? cool

yeah . i dont know for sure about those boxes .. but i wouldn't want any power going through them!

jap spec ones would be a totally different issue.

it's my mates car, but me and his brother do nearly al the work on it.. so it's getting resprayed in red.

DAYUM , rb25 with 3040 would hammer in one of those.. would love to see that car go!

apart from the clutch slave being on the opposite side they are the same. They are definitely strong enough for a n/a 20v... i have run one on my 20v for close to 3 years and it is still going strong.

cool, thats good news for Darrin ..

I am having a look at buy another ae86 this afternoon

genuine import Trueno

twin cam, P/steer, P/window, pop up head lights, disk brake LSD rar end, digital dash, white, 5 speed, air cond. complied approx 2 years ago 56,000km??

Has minor damage to front right corner

needs bonnet, head light and guard

Price $1500 ono :P

Had a look at toymods site, these things sell for approx $7000-12000.

Should be a bargin.

Even it is rough, I can always strip

Disc brake rear and LSD $1000

4age and g/box ecu $1500

Body and panels $1000-2000

interior and dash $500-800

mags $200-500

other parts $1000-2000

either way i can fix it and drive, the best option

Use the good parts in my other AE86 and sell the rest of the parts

Repair it and sell for $7000 plus

Too many options

The Trueno turned out to be a AE92 Trueno :rofl:

Never trust a women, no idea.

I have been doing some reading, the CA18det sounds like a good idea

Craved, have you got much further with yours

I have read your other posts about the conversion, It does not look too hard

Will the handbrake be fine in that location for daily use?

Why did you make a custom inlet plenum? Performance gain or install requirment.

Have you got many more pic's

Any more info would be great

other option is NA sr20de and 5 speed.

i was thinking of getting a ae86, but of course they are pretty rare here in vic, and seeing as i live about 2 hours outta melb that dont help either...

personally, i would like a sr20 redtop conversion into that beast and sha-zam! one fast little drift beast!

yeah, and i wouldnt mind if anyone knows of anyone else whos selling one eh?

-JL

Yeah there is one i found in brizvegas at banzai motorsport www.banzaimotorsports.com.au but it doesnt have a price listed for it.

y0 craved, my engine mount for the CA18 seems to be showin some stress due to engine twist. My fault I guess for doin some ghetto welds :) How much is the full engine and gearbox mount kit from where you got it?

    • This is a story of my life things, I learned eventually (thanks to someone calling me out) that my enthusiasm for discussing and sharing ideas that it came across as arrogance and I'm like... WTF?!    One thing I'm pretty sure I justifiably pride myself on is knowing that everyone will have things they can teach you, and you're always going to find out that something you think you know turns out wrong - you just don't know what it is until you get there.   Just the bursting enthusiasm that comes with ADHD when you hit something that gives you dopamine dumps can come across like you think everyone else is wrong or don't matter. But yeah, I'm a software engineer by trade and also do tuning in weekends and 100% have long had a reputation for  quickly making connections when resolving problems or forming solutions that I've sometimes had to take people form a long walk from start to end to explain how I ended up where I did when it's seemed "too simple" when I've stated my initial case, and had the "WTF" type reaction when they've realised how much was actually considered haha.   My reward is that I get all the curly problems thrown at me.
    • Wives never seem to find things funny. Especially when they're trying to sleep, and you've found the new funniest thing ever. I've never seen someone be able to get try and be cranky with me, while they're holding back fits of laughter... 😛   Also, I tell mine it's payback anyway. She has BiPolar. So the household can get quite emotionally wild at times 😛
    • I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k . 
    • Hi everyone! I’m the new owner of a 1996 R33 GTS-T, I’ve purchased this car over from Queensland and brought it to Western Australia and I’ve found that there is a hole cut out in the engine bay for the FMIC that enters into the wheel well (fender liners are in the boot). For anyone that has had to get their car over the PITS here, will this be a major issue?   
    • Yeah I've spotted this one too, whenever it's lotto superdraw week and I'm browsing car sales dot com for my new ride They must be dreaming, maybe it's worth 150k for the link to Brock?
