First, respect for wanting to build an A-series! Everyone wants to do a swap these days so as a self-proclaimed purist, this gives me hope! What else do you have done to your car? Does your state have smog laws? Which grades of gasoline are sold in your area? Appreciate the kind words. I know there...

How do you like it? How has it been running? What would you different (if anything)?

oh, and for 'mostly street', ask youreself how much time you spend @8-9000 rpm, and is it wise building around that For a far more practical user-friendly street torque curve, at a considerably lower cost....

Hey everyone, 2 things first: 1: I've done some searching here and have realized that a lot of the good information that has once graced us here on Club4ag has been lost. Although this is still out there regarding 7ag vs. 5ag. http://club4ag.com/faq_and_tech_pages/5A&7A.htm 2: I've been in conta...

Hey everyone,

Seeing if any of you are heading to Toyota Fest 2019 in Long Beach California.

In my recent experience, the fronts were more difficult for me to find than the rear ones. Honestly, you'll probably find them easier on Yahoo Japan auctions, then send the link to Robert at Etsuryu to have him buy them for you and ship them. His website is: https://etsuryu.com Obviously finding the...

Wow! What an incredible build! Just Beautiful!!

Thanks Aukworld. With some great info on this site, I was able to find a slightly used OEM Toyota starter part #28100-15180 for a great deal which I think will work out perfect!

In the process of rebuilding my starter but it’s a remanufactured that’s already been rebuilt before and may just be done.

Let me know if you have this exact starter, or any other starter for a 4age w/T50.

Thanks,

Bumping up!

Look what I started LOL.. and then I got to sit back and read all the great input! Thanks everyone for your passion and thoughtful responses!

Saw this and thought I would chime in because I had the same Question. I reached out to grandmighty on IG who has a YouTube Channel Corner Balanced because I saw him install one. He said that the CF hatch from Seibon did NOT come with the wiper hole or the Lock hole, but it does have the holes under...

Final bump before it goes to facebook : (

I lurked hardcore when I got my first 86 back in 2004-2005 just reading all the good info here etc, but didn’t become a member until 2013...Even though I’m on my 4th 86, that makes me a baby on here lol

Seeking a large improvement over stock without sacrificing driveability... This statement defines the Holy Grail of suspension upgrades. Often sought in the pages of internet forums and in manufactures advertising blurb, but never found. The problem is that physics always gets in the way of great i...

Rates are good, especially for a stripped hatch that is still street driven. I like how TRD blues felt but the car I drove was also on TRD bushings. Controlled, smooth but still firm enough. HTS are known to be 'harsh' on the street IIRC. Koni's are good and way more comfortable than most if you pl...

Happy new year bump!

Thought I would post a pic up of the 2 center ones. I’ve got really close lately to finding some on Yahoo auctions Japan..Still Looking though.

Aim to keep the front LCA's at the factory angles, either by using roll centre adjusters if you want to lower the car or by keeping the ride height close to stock. Use springs to absorb the bumps, dampers to control the springs and anti-roll (sway) bars to tune the handling. I would consider adjust...

Hey everyone, Bought these from a forum member here in the last two weeks and realized these were Kouki and Not Zenki. Just trying to sell them for what I have in them.

Same with the grp4. They have an AE86 section on their website. UK based.

personally(MY opinion)... anything over 6kg/4kg in spring rates is fanboy

I’ve read the previous threads here where he or someone from BGRS really chimes in on this subject..Seems really knowledgeable. I love the input here from you all too.

I love keeping the suspension talk updated and appreciate all the honesty and experience here! Is there agreement that with a 6kg front, 4.5kg rear springs, TRD Blue shocks are still just too much, as in too firm? I too don’t know much about upgrading all the links, lateral bars etc..Lot’s to learn ...

I guess it comes down to what you want from it. Do you want an improvement over stock handling ? Are you more interested in how it looks and how low you can get it with coilovers ? Thank you for your honest reply! I don’t care how it looks if it doesn’t handle well. Seeking a large improvement over...

Hey all, Got an 80% Daily that needs suspension really bad. My car is an 85 Hatch GTS factory Here is what I’m mostly sold on now: 7kg front Swift springs 4.5kg or so rear Swift springs Rear OEM type setup My two ideas: feel free to add others. Idea 1: T3 Evolved front Coilovers (just don’t want to ...

Thanks guys! I appreciate the information!

T5 Confirmed...just pull out from that tiny socket. Nothing difficult. I would consider replacing them to LED as well.
