1986 Corolla GTS - bulletproof $6500 DFW TX

Post by mexellent »

This is it guys. Here is my baby. I would love to keep her but I got to let her go.

The bad: This car is not a super model. If I had to rate its appearance I would give it a 6/10. The paint is faded in some spots, there is rust in others, the interior is ok, the dash is cracked, the two front speakers have been removed, the seats are worn, etc. And that’s ok with me because I don’t really like cars that I like I have to worry about.

The good: My goal was to make a bullet proof car. And I succeeded. I spent a considerable amount of time, effort, and MONEY making sure no matter what I threw at this car, it could handle it. Whether you want to drift, autocross, track, street, etc. this car can do it. Everything that could break has been replaced with either a brand new component or a refurbished component. I will let the list speak for itself. The only weak points I was not able to take care of was the T50 and the e-brake cable. I bought a T50 that was in good shape, but it’s a T50. The e-brake cable I never got around to changing. That’s about it. You can buy this car, confidently drive it 1500 miles, drift the crap out of it, and drive it 1500 miles back. That’s how awesome this car is.

-OS Giken Super single (At LEAST $700)
-NRCA ($130)
-Coilovers with tokico shocks (?)
-T3 tension rods ($200)
-T3 4-links ($360)
-T3 shifter rebuild kit
-T3 nylon shift knob ($200)
-tien camber plates
-Cusco Front strut bar
-TRD springs in the rear
-TRD adjustable shocks
-Sparco Racing seat
-Kaaz LSD ($925)
-solid pinion spacer
-replaced diff bearings when Kaaz was installed
-replaced ALL wheel bearings
-stainless steel braided brake lines ($120)
-all calipers have been replaced with refurbished parts
-rebuilt engine with ACL bearings (bought two sets and used the grooved ones only)
-engine powder coated gold
-new oil pump
-new water pump
-new oem radiator
-carrier bearing ordered and awaiting arrival for installation ($260 ordered from toyota)
-Nardi steering wheel with custom spacer
-TRD header
-T3 cat delete
-HKS exhaust ($510)
-240sx brake master cylinder
-cd player
-XXR 002 with Federal Tires (595’s)
-JDM front bumper
-JDM rear bumper
-Seibon Carbon Hatch ($640)
-3 additional sets of tires (one with falken azenis)
-Powdercoated valve covers
-Powdercoated intake
-I’m sure I forgot some stuff


The price bellow is what I am selling it for. I think it is very fair considering the amount of awesome parts it already has on it. Ive easily spent $6500 on getting the car where its at right now!
Price: $6500

Thanks guys!

Yeah, I am really bummed about selling it. But I am starting a business and I am going to need money to get things going. Sad thing is I had just gotten it where I wanted. After breaking in the engine, took it out to mineral wells and put it through its paces. This car was a beast! It was out there AT LEAST twice as long as any other car there! The only time I gave it a break was when I needed to change tires. Once the tires were changed, Id do a quick check of all the fluids and get back at it again! It was amazing....

*sigh*

Nah, I really dont want to start parting out stuff.

I will even be willing to come down in price just to get everything out at once!

I'm sorry to see you let it go Alex but if anything, this car needs not be molested and go to a good home as a whole.

Here are more pictures of the exterior and interior. I know it doesnt look that great but you gotta remember; Ive put a butt-load of money into this car and the only modifications I've done to the interior are to improve my driving. This car's sole purpose in life is to be driven, not to look good. Even though it does.... hehehe

doesn't look too bad and if so it wouldn't be too much to get it to look that good if someone wanted
