Re: [WTB] Searching for unicorn..

If I can find a "collector grade" example, then yeah, I could pay more. I'd love to buy the "baddest AE86.." add :) but I would have to mess up all the great work done to it to get it registered here, so thats a no, sadly. But I'm "only" asking for one with a near mint ...

Still, not the one. Btw. Is there a way to search all of Craigslist in one go?

Re: [WTB] Searching for unicorn..

Yeah, I've already owned 3 over the years, but none "perfect", all imported. But each with their flaws.. Rust mostly..
And yes, they are pretty damn fun in the winter ;)
Thanks.

I don't like the interior from the zenki. But show me and I'll consider it. Not like I'm swimming in options. :-)

[WTB] Searching for unicorn..

Looking for a mint (or as close to it as possible) kouki hatchback GT-S, with no rust, kouki interior (black/gray). Must be pretty close to stock, or easily put back to stock with parts included preferably. Extra bonus for non-sunroof, w/AC and cruise. Maybe power steering too. Yep, basicly a unicor...

Re: Shaking/bouncing rear when dropping the clutch to initia

The only thing that hasn't been done after changing all of my rear suspension is the alignment, which, fair enough is important, but to my knowledge shouldn't be able to cause this problem.. And it's more than a "buzzing", like mentioned, it feels like the whole rear is bouncing.. (one sid...

Braking, as in when the rear wheels are engine braking/locking up. That is when the bouncing occurs..

Re: Shaking/bouncing rear when dropping the clutch to initia

Sorry about the very late reply, been busy with other stuff lately.. The links are adjusted to get the pinion into the right angle against the gearbox.. sort of. :) And I have traction brackets so the length can't be the same as stock. I very much doubt that, but I will have a look the next time I'm...

Re: Shaking/bouncing rear when dropping the clutch to initia

The only solid joints I have are the panhard bar.. everything else has poly bushings in the back. In the front everything is mostly stock except for the dampers, but they of course have poly bushings.. The u-joints have probably had minor changes in angle, as I've been adjusting the 4 links and ride...

Re: Shaking/bouncing rear when dropping the clutch to initia

Ok, so you don't think the clutch/flywheel could be the culprit? Good to hear, bacause thats a crap job to have to redo.. I'll check the rubber on the engine and transmission mounts, not sure if they have ever been changed. But shouldn't the shake feel like it's coming from the front if the mounts a...

Re: Shaking/bouncing rear when dropping the clutch to initia

No what? :) I actually retightened one of the engine mounts when I was searching for the cause of the rpm vibration, so those should be tight enough. Not sure what you mean by U-Joints.. I'm gonna have another look at the gear mount the next time I have it off the ground though, one of the bolts had...

So the car has new adj. 4 links (w/poly bushings) and a new panhard bar, heim joints.. New sway bars w/polys. A Kaaz 2 way, and new MCNSport coilovers all around. (not overly stiff). I've also been having trouble with an rpm dependent vibration that shows up at around 2.5-3k rpm when coasting/brakin...

Re: Starting problems.

Oh I forgot to mention one last symptom that was there since the problems started.. The ignition switch won't turn off sometimes. As in, you turn the key back from the start position, but it keeps cranking. You have to turn it back and forth a couple of times to make it stop.

Shouldn't I get an error code from the ECU if that were the case? (the "running ok boss" part) ;) But yeah, I suspect there to be a grounding issue, but I don't know how to locate it, and it has to be a major wire thats burned properly to make that kind of smell.. I do not think its a burn...

Re: Starting problems.

I thought so too, but I cant seem to find any, can someone tell me where the different wires are located?
I ohmed the engine block, and the intake manifold to the ground on the battery, and they check out as a solid connection.. Though the hook did NOT work.. :)
Where should I check for continuity?

I could use some ideas here, my friends ae86 just wouldn't start the other day, ran fine the day before. It just cranks forever without a hint of firing.. (except a tiny little attempt the very first crank after it's been standing for a long time). Checked that it gets fuel, and spark. Yes to both.....
