  1. what exactly did you want us to reply to this thread?

     

    what could be done to make it stand out? spinning hub caps, fluffy dice, twin turbo, NOS, extra cup holders(at least 4), neon lights in foot well (ones that flash with you subwoofer), oh yeah..5 subwoofers, paint it pink - bright pink.

     

    what i think should be done? a set of wheels, no bigger than 16", good suspensions, almost every "option" off the twincam version (colour coded bumpers especially, steering wheel, interiour, rear hatch wing, etc) and of course a 20V 4age engine.

     

    unsure on your license type, 20V might be out.

     

    what i think you should do? dunno, I'm not you!

     

    to get ideas on your car, you don't just post up asking for ideas. you spend days and weeks and months trolling the internet seeing what others have done, forming your own oppinion on what you think is good and bad, and eventually forming your own ideas based on what you have previously seen.

     

    now thats gangsta lol

  2. they stand out on there own every hatchback that was made since the ae82 looks like it was made for a girl! the ae82 is a good looking car

     

     

    need a gearbox someone read my wanted adddddddd

  3. Nice, my family had a 4wd wagon one of them, it finally died all together at 610+ tousand k, original 3a never opened.

     

    Look afer it and it will look after you :wink:

     

    nice I'm glad its turned out to be a good buy, I can get within an inch of the gutter without touching it.

    It has p/s so it pretty much spins on the spot lol

     

    I nearly made him buy a VK Holden just because I miss my old one

  4. Hey guys picked up this car a few months ago for my brother now I wish I kept it because its fun to drive and when you can't find a parking spot you can just put it in your back pocket and walk around

     

     

    seems to have near new interior, Air Con works well, cd player, handles like a mini, 3au motor is gutless but I'm sure it can be tweaked. unfortunately its an auto

     

    the bastard is drawing power when its turned off and kills the battery overnight and the speedo doesnt work but other than that its great... I still want to put my 4age in it one day but I don't know if thats possible, it was covered in betty boop stickers when we bought it

     

    theres no rust, I'm so sick of finding rust on cars but none here

  5. Sorry, I was assuming you had a 4AGE. If you don't, make sure you get a 4AC engined car as the donor.

     

    Comment re pulleys stands.

     

    yeah it is the 4age in there, it sounds very complicated, I really don't know what to do with this car. I love this car so much but its becoming a hassle to drive as a daily.

    maybe the bank will buy me an old wrx

     

    thanks for the info all

  6. maybe the glass rubber? run a hose around all the seals and the window rubber and see wheres its coming from then seal it

     

    or you could put a hole in the wheel well and let it drain. noone will ever know

  7. These computers can't be chipped.

     

    You can get a piggyback fuelling computer (various), or a separate ignition curve module (icon). Both are expensive and limited in capabilities. You can pay mega bucks occasionally for Jap tuning house modified ECU's on Yahoo.

     

    If you really want to go this route you need to invest in a local aftermarket computer with tuning capabilities and support.

     

    You can still install bigger cams with the stock ecu. Do a search on this as it has been covered lots. Realistically you can run about 270 degree duration (like me). It is unlikely you would go more aggressive than this unless it was a race engine (i.e. not a daily driver). If you get too silly with lift, requisite valve train mods can get expensive.

     

     

    thats all I needed to know, I'm gonna put it on hold until I get the body resprayed so I have a good base to work with, or a nice looking car for sale

  8. I'm going to upgrade the computer system in my ae82 so I can eventually get bigger cams.

    Anyone know what type of money ill be needing to get one? its a 4age twincam 16 fwd

    also could someone tell me about extractors? should I just get extractors for now or go with the computer system first?
