Carbed AE86

Postby ogdougynutty » Sat Apr 20, 2013 11:09 am

I have a build log set-up on D-series but figured you guys would appreciate it to right? lol

Just a quick over view, i bought this in Aug last year and have loved it ever since. Its a GTS-R5, done quite a bit of work to it but still have plenty to do. So with that, PICS

First day i got it, Got it for 2k with a bad throwout bearing.
Image


Ordered the bearings the same day and a week later trans out and replaced.
Image

Cleaned and put it back in
Image

A week after that, i realized the front end was very soft. Well it turns it was on tokico blues with cut oem spring. So it blew the front shocks, bought replacement front shocks and some springs
Image
Image

Battery tray was pretty rusted, so battery was moved to the back
Image

Not where the battery sits now, but just a picture in the back
Image

Also being a 20+ year old car i got to replacing all the bushings with this.
Image

So it stayed like that for a while, till i came upon the almighty Carbed thread on the old Club4ag. I seen that and knew thats what i wanted. So i started doing my research, and tried to accomplish it as cheap as possible.

Ordered fuel line and fitings
Image

Some carbs
Image

Made my own flange
Image

Had this fuel pump lying around
Image

Welded up intake (its different now)
Image

Then got to work. Dropped the tank, pulled all the lines, mounted everything up.
Image
Image
Image

Quick FPR mount
Image

New set-up for the tank
Image

This is how it sits today
Image

I just sold my civic yesterday so i have some more money to play with. So i just put in an order for a megajolt set-up, cant wait to get that on there

Thought about using some bellmouth stacks on the end of the carbs? Will really smooth the airflow going in, definitely helps with making power.

I've always thought that carbs needed to be horizontal/leveled to the ground. I guess it doesn't?

90% of the time you would be right lol. These are downdraft carbs, you look at the floatbowls when you are holding the carbs straight up and down. The bowls are about 30 deg away from being flat. On a bike they can be mounted normally because the engine is already slanted at 30 deg.

I've seen other instances with these carbs mounted slanted so I've wondered why, but thank you so much for clarifying it with me!

Please keep us updated with the build, thanks!

Thanks, there is plenty more to come.

All finally assembled
Image

Work i did in the letter for the valve covers
Image
Image

Even did some work on the oil cap
Image

I got it started in the garage, found a couple coolant leaks on the block and had a vacuum leak with one of my injector plugs. Fixed those things and the car idled beautifully. I let it idle up to temperature, shut it off, richened up the idle screw and the needle jet and then took it for a spin.

Going down the street i have my eye on the temp gauge and it was reading a little hotter than normal, which was to be expected with higher compression and thinner cylinder walls. But soon after it kept on climbing, i immediately shut the car off and popped the hood. Turned out my radiator developed multiple hairline cracks that didn't show in the garage. So i let it cool down and got it home safely.

I already bought a new radiator, a bigger one at that, and i have a dual fan set-up in the garage. So that will be put in for better cooling, other than that mishap the car ran great. Bottom end is already better than it was before, i had to order another set of main jets, have to go a little higher than what it is now.

Are you going to run any kind of filters now? Would be a shame to kill the new engine from eating dust and road grime.

Yea, i have been running filters. Just a little filter sheet i cut up and zip tied on there. I always ran filters, specially around my town, we have mostly horse trails instead of sidwalks and it gets very dusty. I finally found some cheap little pod filters, those are on there now.

Just curious if you had any more detailed pictures of your fuel lines in the engine bay to how you connected them to the carb setup?
