Hey Folks. just thought id post to introduce myself. I'm a forum lurker mostly.. and tbh, the other toyota forums shit me to no end (dc and toymods) So reading all this corolla love is nice :)

 

Have an AE86 which consumes most of my time. A KE30 coupe that is waiting back home for me to get round to bringing it over her to brisbane. My first autocross car was a KE55 coupe. Which I turned into a ball :(

 

Its not like many other sprinters.

 

 

it a couple of years ago.

 

 

it currently. Actually its in a few more pieces than this now!

 

 

obligatory donk photo...

 

No pics of the ke yet. Its back in Perth sleeping... Thats my new project.. Ive always had competition cars, I want a loud, fast street car next. Pending time vs money it might be getting a 13b :)

Welcome to the board mate, could not agree with you more on the other forums.

Welcome mate..!

Welcome. Nice to see another 86 on here. They seem to gravitate to DC. Got some more specs for us?

oohh nice! Welcome in!

 

How do you get the car so high for those stands? I'd love a 1ton jack that lifted a good meter high in one hit.

 

..and some details on that sump??

Hey Guys, Thanks for the words.

 

Ive never written a spec sheet for it. It forever changing. I havent actually driven the car in over 26 months (had a rather big crash in rally victoria 2010 :(

 

Its 90% complete again, final additions to wiring, putting Wilwoods on the back, MCA shocks.

 

off the top of my head (and fast enough to not get the boss looking over my shoulder at work)

 

1983 ADM AE86 - Started building in 2005 as an apprentice. First rally late 2008 (was pretty stock then)

 

Currently it stands with;

• AW11 MR2 7 Rib Bigport, Tighe 304/304 11mm lift cams, Completely blueprinted, main cap strands, standard 100kw rods and crank shot peened. Wiseco .5mm overbore pistons, heavily ported head and inlet manifold with 20v throttles. 155mm Trumpets and Martileus R1 Manifold with a 2.5" exhaust. Speedflow 200 series fittings every where (no rubber lines in the car)
  
• Autronic SMC v1.94 Running 4x Prius coils, GZE CAS, Launch control (hehe :)) Racepark GPS logging dash with fuel and oil pressure/ oil temp sensors.
  
• Wiring loom made by me.
  
• Carbon door trims, roof scoop, spoiler, mirrors, centre console and switch panel.
  
• Fibre glass front gaurds, bonnet & boot.
  
• T50 with albins gear set (silly tarmac ratio 1st gear of 2.3:1)
  
• JDM Tseires with Kaaz 2 way and 5.375 ratios (with 2 spares)
  
• Pedal box, full braided brake lines from firewall to hubs. Front brake 262x27mm hi spec 4 pots. Rear brakes (tba!)
  
• Wheels, used to run 14x6 starion. leaning towards 13x7 RS 4 spoke items now.
  
• Vinyl wrap every other colour except blue :)
  
• tower to tower cage. normal rally stuff, trip metre, peltor intercom.
  
• did have DMS struts. all bent now. Leaning towards MCA if funds allow
  

I can go on and on

 

Motorsport is drug and the only benefit is poverty.

And the stands sit 550mm high. I scored a 1700kg 800mm lifting jack. Its the best thing in my garage!

Nuts. Subscribed. Check out our rally car build! :)
