I only just recently did some research on these cars... and found only 7000 of them were made an AE86 in disguise...

 

Anyway - If I buy the car today... Il post up pics...

 

Can also please fill me in on some info \ specs of the SPIRIT.

 

Cheers

 

 

***SO I BOUGHT IT - GOT IT DOWN FROM $1200... TO $750 ***

 

Excellent... Here are some pics (took them quickly, I will post better ones tomorrow)

So damn excited to see it - Gotta wait until 4:30pm though :)

I do believe you mean AE71, If it was a KE71 it would be a backyard engine conversion to a K series motor. You would have the 1.6L (A series) 4A-C in it..

 

Welcome to Rollaclub anyways..

theres 2 in my local town, one even has aw11/sprinter style skirts but hte rest is stock.

yea

 

i reckon theres more than 2000 made, and yes i own one too :)

 

welcome to rollaclub by the way, and by the looks of things you know your shit so keep searching brother :D

 

have a peek at my sig if ur interested....

Welcome aboard dude... and

 

:)

what he said ^^^^

 

:)

Thanks guys... appreciate the welcome.

 

This is the most frendly forum ive come across, helpful too!

 

EXCELLENT NEWS - I bought the AE71 :D

 

He was asking for $1200... and wanted close to $1000... I offered him $700 and he was like "oh...um...oh...er...geez..." - so i quickly said - "Il give you $750."

 

Next second he was like... "DONE DEAL :)"

 

Picking it up in 1 hour. I will post pics... (just quick pics) - Il get better ones tomorrow.

glad to see you got the name right.....and less smilies

glad to see you got the name right.....and less smilies

 

hehe yeah... I'm just excited - never owned a japanese rwd manual.

Good stuff on the buy there dude! :)

Now go out there and get that rolla, my boy! :D

then get a 4agze :)

 

and join the club...just me and jason at the mo with supercharged spirits :D

^^^^^^

 

...How can you be the only resident wog boy... If I am one too :)

 

Now... This will be my first project car, and I was considering putting in a 4AGE (Silvertop, 160HP)... How different is your 4AGZE (140HP) compared to the non-supercharged...

 

I can get either engine for $900-$1000 in Adelaide, and I know that they would both drop in (near) perfectly... no having to use a crowbar... hehe

 

-I would love to join ur supercharged club :D but I could use your experience and help with my project car... to get me going.

hey no probs dude, id be happy to help another wog :)

 

FWIW, i went for the gze cos its got the bum in seat pwr, and itd be easy to go turb one day....AND i reckon 20v's are just overpriced bits of poo cos there is wayyyyy more involved than just droping it in.
