Sup C4AG, I'm Monte, and I picked up this after moving to PHX from Hawaii...
I'll keep it short since most of u like pix better than text, unfortunately half da pix will get cut in half but wtfe. So it was all stock, tow truck backed into the RF fender n headlight which I swapped out 1st, but it already came with THIS!!!
Supposedly a JDM AE92 redtop small port hi comp, identified by...
And the oil drain back...
And the chop n swap intake manifold...
Sooo... I've had it for 8yrs, got it running but could never get it to idle. It would jus surge from 1300-1800rpm unless u were on the throttle. Compression tests - pass, 190-195psi front to back. Leak down tests - pass. Removed IAC to clean n reseal, no change. Pulled countless vacuums on the cooling sys to remove any trapped air, uh uh. A ton of other techs over the years, have tried their hand at it, fail. Took it to Akina Motorsports waaaay back when, fail... I went back thru everything I could think of, threw a few parts at it, fail. Met owner of another local import shop, dropped it off at Suspicious Garage, fail. So I came up with this idea...
Twin Weber DCOE 45's, linkage, and a big port carb manifold but being that she's got a small port, I needed one of these...
Tried using stock pump and return style fpr...
Fail. So I picked up an in-tank Carter HVLP and a Holley LP dead head FPR
MSD tach asapter, MSD 6AL2, stripped down n modified GTS (I'm an idiot i kno..) harness, wired to a new bluetop dizzy and came up with this 8)
Scored some 15x8 +0 and 15x9 +0 from 2tone86...
Threw on some Espilir's I had and came up with this...
The rears were literally sitting on the virgin fender lips, so after snapping these pix I threw the stock rear springs back on...
Still got a ways to go and tons of things to buy but she's getting there.
Goals: Clean, track capable street car, like these...
Current list of **** I still want (and ordering)is huge but includes:
- rotors, pads, front bearings, races, n seals
- new rad, fans, n T3 shroud
- Mocal oil cooler, lines, n sandwich plate
- Innovative wideband
- arms, links, bushings, bars, coilovers (want Greddy's REALLY bad but probly going T3 complete suspension front n rear)
- more street tires, Diamonds wit track stickies
- get a/c lines redone, condenser redone, and a new comp n accumulator
- tint n interior n paint last
Blah blah blah, that's all I got, here's how she runs right now...

Re: Projekt 8086 (PIC HEAVY!!!)
Nice start. Is that cruise control over by the brake master? Never seen one of those set-ups.

HAH! I recognize that carb setup anywhere! That's my old setup! Wow, got shipped halfway across the country, but yeah, definitely looks like my old rig. How's she treating you?

I'm not sure what 808AE86inAZ used, but I know people use the brake booster heat shield from a TE72.

There's a few AZToyota.org guys on here, toywagon (no 86's but a Yota hoarder for sure), duece cam, flowisode zero, sideways, and not to forget haymaker. The header was $180 from eBay seller Horsepower Freaks. Even tho Pace Setter is here in AZ, it was waaaay cheaper of eGay.

Hey thx! Flowisode Zero sold me that booster heat shield for like 10 bucks. I dunno what it's from originally tho. Bought it, cleaned it up and hit it with some aluminized high temp paint. I got a dizzy heat shield from him too but it don't fit cuz it's for a FWD/MR2 style dizzy.

Re: Projekt 8086
UPDATE:
- pulled engine and fan harnesses out again and redid a few things
- tuned ECT gauge to runs fans properly
- set ride height with intended wheels and tires
- installed strut tower bar
- cracked windshield while installing dash mat
- tuned and retuned carbs (AFR's ~12.5 - 13.5ish)
- tuned ignition timing as best as I know how for now (12deg BTDC 0-1500rpm curving to 37deg BTDC from 3500 - redline.)
- put 20mi on er today after work, recheck for leaks - pass.
It's funny cuz all this time, I've either been under the hood or under the car but never behind the wheel. Now I get to find out all the other shyt that's wrong with it...
- need a headlight switch, as my interior and exterior lighting work intermittently
- annoying ass buzzing from passenger footwell, seems to match eng rpm (suspect MSD tach adapter)
- obviously need a new windshield now
- everything I touch crumbles to dust i.e. top seatbelt trim things, door cups, seats, etc

Re: Projekt 8086
Did another shake down run with er today. Not bad, carbs need more tuning. Either that or more ignition timing tuning. O Snap!
