Agree 100% with Supra 2 . I ran a 18RG in a RA23 ( GROUP A RALLY CAR ) the more money we spent the less drivable the car became . Eventually we blew the engine and with a limited budget just put a stock balance 18RG in and bugger me if we where not quicker. Gen 1 3SGE is the way to go and you know where youcan get one built.

Yeah the second ones are a bit dog poo ( opps sorry if any one running them ) . The 1st one is the go. Reckon I will powder coat the rims gloss black and a nice dish chromed dress rim will look the goods on a dark toyota red ( early AE86 SPRINTER COLOR ) . Funny enough the same color as sons AE86 and the present build AE86. That way I can have a farther and son thing happening with the cars as well. This the color I am going to paint the KE15

Suppose I should start a build thread . Even though I am probably not going to start the build for 6 months or more . Plenty of time to collect the bits I need. In the middle of a AE86 RESTO so it is taking all my time and money. So here is the plan , I am going to build it to peroid goodness , but not going to be anal about KE15 Exactness . She already has had a 3k engine and a later 4 speed gearbox fitted. Plus the horrendous , non adjust drums have been replace with KE17 disc set up. Car is only going to be a weekender on Historic Rego , so I will freshen the 3K , mid cam , twin asian and reco suspension and diff and drive line. Back to bare metal respray , a few rust area,s to fix ( good excuse to get a better Welder ) . Re-do interior , carpets ,rear seats ,all new rubbers , roof lining etc etc . Already found a great set of AW11 MR2 seats for the front . It came with a set of Mazda 6" x 13" steelies . Thinking of stripping and powder coating and adding a nice set of chrome dress rims. The major thing that are missing are ---- no dash pad , no intrument cluster , and a few badges missing. Anyhow early days yet ,will update post as things develop.
