Any shops do refresh electrical looms and plugs?

Hello, I have an RHD converted AE86 and I was thinking it's time to get the electrical refreshed. There are 3 JDM looms that I need refreshed, which are remarkably similar to the US looms. 1.) Engine bay loom that controls the lights and other accessories 2.) Under dash loom controls all the accesso...

Re: Front Windshield Question: Difference between LHD and RHD?

I have an RHD converted AE86. The cowl needs to be swapped along with the firewall. The wiper motor is also different, and you'll need to bang the metal a bit on the passenger side or else the motor will get caught when it's rotating.

Re: LHD/RHD Fuel Tank Differences?

No difference in fitment. I had both the LHD and RHD in front of me and they looked identical without cutting them open to see inside.

Right now, everything is in storage and I plan to go through it while on quarantine measures at home to see what I have. Has anyone installed these to their AE86 and did a minor write u...

Thanks I will start on this project this winter. The wiring is aging and there are too many little things popping up all the time. Fresh wiring will help ensure everything is working properly.

My RHD conversion was a front clip. But I went over board I wanted a full internior so I get JDM black seats, sun visors, power windows, etc. It looks authentic.

Re: WTB Zenki Axles (ASAP)

Peanut,

I'll message you in a bit, I don't mind trading, but I would appreciate we talk first because I just put brand new bearings on both axles, haven't been driven a single mile yet. I have the receipts as well to prove.

I'll send you a PM later so we can talk discuss!

Re: WTB Zenki Axles (ASAP)

BBoy34, thanks for the reply but that doesn't make much sense. Using fake numbers, lets say LSD axles are 300mm long, and open diff are 315mm long, cutting 15mm would make the open diff axles the same length as the LSD axles. I don't see why an aftermarket LSD would even notice the difference? If th...

Re: Swap to Electrical AC Compressor

Jondee86,

Sent them an email just now!

1.) If you had to guess what alternator should I think to upgrade too, currently have stock 20v BT
2.) Will this effect the idle up/down? Seem since its not belt driven at idle I wont have to worry about this?

Just emailed RetroSpec as well, they didn't have them on their site, looks like only Trueno which makes sense since US didn't get Levin.

Re: Is CXRacing 20v Exhaust any good?

Mine is RHD =) This CXRacing with downpipe didn't line up to the cat, it was way off. I ended up cutting the down pipe and re-welding the flange to line up with the OEM cat. Very annoying something so expensive doesn't have proper alignment. It also didn't fit the 20v BT with a water line block off ...

Help Recommend HID for Levin lights

Hello,

Has anyone setup HID lights in their Levin or know what kit would fit Levin Kouki lights? I got the light but no bulbs and though it would be good to just got HID.

Any links to kits that would fit would be very helpful.

*Side question = what bulbs normally work in Levin head lights?*
