kyteler Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 It's such a race car. "Took it out, something broke, fixed it. Took it out, something broke, fixed it" Good stuff man. Must be a blast to race. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vintage Grumble Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 Looks mean, wheels look nice and retro. Been round Taupo in it yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toucan Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 Not til the 21st, ay markku Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truenotch Posted June 5, 2009 Author Share Posted June 5, 2009 Yeah should be at taupo on the 21st (provided the tow car is going )... Looking forward to it! I've done track 2 in dads 86 road car but suspect this might be a bit different. It's such a race car. "Took it out, something broke, fixed it. Took it out, something broke, fixed it" Good stuff man. Must be a blast to race. ^ Thats been my life for the last few months.... Phil - the wheels weren't 8's and 9's (they were 7.5's and 8.5's) and the offset wasn't as aggressive as claimed, plus they didn't clear the wilwoods. Didn't end too well...

xsspeed Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 At least you now have those simmons, they look so sweet Just had another look at your thread, fuck I love this car. I need to start finishing some projects and save up so I can get one. Always wanted an ae86, ever since I had one of those squashed up looking toy car versions of them when I was a kid lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkle Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 wheels look way sweeter, poss better with grey centres? (such an o.s cliche thing to say I know) Or maybe black. Still fucken sweet though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truenotch Posted June 5, 2009 Author Share Posted June 5, 2009 Yeah might re-paint them one day... they're almost brand new so no sense in ruining the gold. They'll probably go gunmetal one day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vintage Grumble Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 This is prolly a stupid question, but this cars running a hilux rear end ayy? so the front diff of a 4wd liteace has the same CW&P as a hilux? not a AE86? I thought I read somewhere that the liteace 4wd front CW&P would fit in a std AE86? I must be trippin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honda Ass Dragger Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 This car has t rear Lite ace vans have t series so put them together and wollah t series c&p supply Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spencer Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 yea those vans are T series front diff, F series rear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vintage Grumble Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 At the start in the specs its got "RE-SHIMMED Toyota Hilux Diff(LSD) with Disc brakes. Ratio =4.8" I dont know jack about this stuff, but dont hilux's have a G series diff? has it got a hilux head in a ae86 housing or some shit? (T = AE86 dont it?)

Spencer Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 ^ well he'd be doing dam well to smash a hilux CW & P with his 3S and liteace vans have a t series front diff, so I'd say that's incorrect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honda Ass Dragger Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 Pretty sure Marku has made a typo then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 I think he copied and pasted those specs off the Trademe auction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truenotch Posted June 9, 2009 Author Share Posted June 9, 2009 Previous owner had no idea what was in the car really, some of those specs are from previous owners and some are invented I think. It's a T series rear end with floating axle setup, parallel 4 link mounts etc... I should probably edit that first post. Hilux diff would be far too heavy .

Vintage Grumble Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 Ohhhh, ok, thanks for clearing that up. How much do those liteace diff heads go for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toucan Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 The floating axle setup is damn cool too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
