Older member with a new car.

Post by Bigwhite07 »

Hey guys, about this time last year I had sold my old AE86 and gotten into RX7's, long story short I had to get another Corolla. One day I was looking around on craigslist of all places and found a guy about an hour away selling an imported 1985 Sprinter Trueno GT Apex coupe. So I called him up and went and got it the next week. So far it has a lot of good mods done to it, it has Megan Coilovers, Koyo rad, Eagle Rods and pistons, GZE crank, Supertech valves and springs, full Urethane bushings, slotted rotors, and braided brake lines. Eventually I plan on doing a Levin front end with BN type 2 aero and Origin overfenders, but for now I've just been enjoying the car and driving it. But enough babbling, here are some pictures.

I've replaced those jaunty ass L brackets holding my radiator in.

Since these pictures, I've put a radio in the car, gotten an NRG wheel for temporary use, and put in the center console and column parts.

Thanks guys, I think out of all my AE86s this has to be my favorite one so far.
