Re: Opinions? Gotta make a decision.

Well, I've started on it. The only really useful parts from AE to RA chassis are the brakes and front spindles. The rear ends are totally different, as far as the mounting points are concerned. The GTS brakes will fit with some modification, as well as the actual differential, but with my horsepower...

Re: Opinions? Gotta make a decision.

yeah, i sent him a PM earlier to see about picking his brain regarding his mods. I've pretty much thrown in the towel on getting my GTS rear to bolt up, and instead I'm going to just swap the parts over. Plenty of write-ups on that.

Re: Opinions? Gotta make a decision.

Well, the decision (for better or worse) has been made. I've decided to swap everything into the celica. A worthy(?) soul has offered a load of cash for the 'rolla shell, and circumstances have forced me to pare down my collection. As of now, my collection consists of a '75 Fairlady Z and the RA29. ...

Opinions? Gotta make a decision.

Okay, so I have a choice to make here. First, a little info. I have a '77 Toyota RA29 Celica Liftback. The liftback is tan, auto car (unfortunately, but happily easily to remedy), with a clean title. It's an auto car. Clean interior, clean exterior, minor and easily fixable rust. http://i37.photobuc...

Re: A few questions

Stumbled across fueling information. That's sorted now. Mckenney, PM me if you don't mind. Now the only thing left is wiring.

Re: A few questions

Oh I was under the impression that there was another, lower compression ratio. But alright, ill try stock settings and see how it goes. It appears that I'll be waiting a week or so to install it, so we will see how it goes.

Re: A few questions

Thanks a bunch! I'm thinking that's what I have. A 9.4 that is. The guy swears it's a "hicomp" engine, but as it's missing the oil squirters, I've been skeptical. I'm thinking I can run factory GTS injectors and either pull timing a tad or use higher octane fuel and be just fine.

Hi all

New guy here. Picked up an '87 AE86 SR5 coupe a few weeks ago. Pretty much a 'yota guy here, although I do have a '75 Nissan Z car that I'm rather partial to. I'll post pictures up sometime. Also have a '77 Celica RA29 that I'm thinking of putting my spare AE parts into. I have a complete front susp...
