Nah man, we picked it up from auckland a couple of weeks ago and it's been here ever since. You must be trippin fool!

Thanks . Pics up with the flares on now.

It's not me selling the kit man, it's a previous owner... If it came with that kit I would have kept it! Although it does look kind of cheap but there is no real need to spend that money...

^^ and the one on trademe happens to be the one that came off it as well!

Some pics from today. Still need to get riv-nuts to install the flares.

PM'd you Pues!

Soon... I do REALLY want to go for a drive though....

WOW! Rick from Toyspeed had some pictures of it racing at manfeild! This is how it looked las time I saw it:

Yep. Really keen for the flag to drop soon!

Took it in for a dyno run today to make sure it wont blow up at the track. Need to work on the sloppy curves. Probably cam timing and some playing with the link will give me a smoother curve and peak power and torque sooner. But this will do for first testing. And this is the picture in the logbook from a few years ago:

^^ Yep De walt aren't bad but they get really hot in the transmission and are pretty average to work on. Plus the company is AVERAGE at the moment for parts delivery and paying their warranty agents for work they have done .

what event? Winter series man. You will be able to come to the test day on the sat and run the 7 if keen?

Don pies. This shed is so sweet, would almost consider moving down to have that space .

I can do you a good deal on a good one mang, PM me if you are keen.

Sounds sweet, I have a brazier and a BBQ that we can lend out, local as well. Also, this is the weekend I'm aiming to go racing for the first time, so will be testing on saturday and racing sunday. If you's are keen to come out for watches on sunday it would be aws.

I vote against listening to anything lowlancer says.

Haha yeah I'd love to keep the AW and do that as well but it's not prectical.... race team would be awesome though.

Yip black flares, with silver bolts for UJ . kyteler: Nah the AW11 race car project is canned now, this was too much of a logical decision not to make. Might get a free 4age and get it going as a roadie again though.

Silver on red it is!!! /Nah.

It used to have TRD style box flares and red bumpers but I like it better with the current set up TBH. And yes the flares are a simple bolt on. Black it is. Roll on OS trackday in march .

It's going to be mint dude, just get an engine in and go ASAP!

If you want to talk about it then do it here. Should the flares be red or black? I reckon black. *****PROJECT THREAD*****

*****DISCUSSION***** History behind the car: This car was our Family AE86 back in the early 90's and is the first 86 that I remember ever seeing. It was originally a 1984 AE86 GTV with no rust. Completely standard. We had this car (Robin) and a black 280z which we called batman/ the batmobile. So that's where the name comes from. Then one day an Engineer friend of my dads offered big money for it, so we sold it to him, and he turned it into a race car from there. He probably spent $25k with all his own labour back then. It still had a 4age, t50 etc Then it went on to someone else who changed the tunnel and mounted a 3sge in it, leaning over, open quads, cams, link.

WILLWOOD SUPERLITE II 300 x 32mm front Discs So the plan is to get the car ready for the Manfeild winter series, which starts in june, but I'm aiming for July or August for my first round. All that needs doing it bolt on the flares, check everything and run the engine up on the dyno to make sure everything is so sweet. Now, which colour should the flares be? Red or black? I reckon black.

LOL that door isn't huge ... The fronte is just tiny and awesome: Awesome car mike.
