Skib tinkers with a yoda

[Skib]

got this in the garage a few days ago :D

 

an AE86 coupe with a black top 4A-GE, 20 valve/ITB's/11:1 comp

 

 

 

 

did a major engine bay clean up and fix the rats nest tweaker wiring job :mellow: the sad part is that the swap was done by a shop for the PO and they where lazy as shit about it :rolleyes: cost the PO 3k to do too :eek: the WO was still in the glove box

[izzo]

how much was it, and it was at a garage sale??

[Skib]

the AE86?

[izzo]

ya, those dont usually go cheap

 

 

it looks like a go cart, i could run it over with my 4x4 (if i could catch the fuckin thing :D)

[Skib]

he offed his ugly ass turbo honduh hatch for it :fu:

 

hes a an AE86/MR2 guy and got stuck with it in a trade lol i made fun of it non stop :lol:

 

 

I dont make him park around the corner now :lol:

[bonvo]

what shop did the swap so the rest of the world knows not to take the car there i would have to say that i preffer the coupe over the hatch when it comes to the ae86

[Skib]

the WO was for Ground Zero Motorsports in Portland, not sure of the complete history but the wiring is terrible, the ECU is just sitting under the pass carpet, some of the stuff looks like they used extra stuff they found around the shop. lol on the WO theres a charge for a coolant over flow tank and hose for $35, its a stock honda tank :rolleyes:. there was a fan temp control box mounted in the grill area, right in the middle fot he lower rad. support. great idea to have electrical components right where your going to be getting all your outdoor elements of driving and 5 in off the ground :mellow:

20valve!!! if that motor was put together right, it alone would be worth more than that stupid honda! I used to drive my brother's 4AG powered GT-S 86... low power, but soo fun!:D

put a little nitrous on that 20v and it'll come alive. Still slow, but a lot of fun!
