AE86 Update
Finally! , 86 is registered!

Yesterday I took the car to do the inspection, and believe! , Approved! , Until the inspector told me "This is one of the cleanest AE86 that I have inspected", I felt happy!



Today i take the opportunity to pamper the car!



I bought a Tow Hook, the front turn signals from the bumper and some "new" wheels and new tires

Before:



After:



Now if it looks good !!!, The rims are ssr starshark 15 inch, i bought them at an auction on Yahoo for 118000 ¥ ($ 1100) and are mounted on toyo tires that i bought for 30000 ¥ (270 $), also i bought a nice towhook for 17000 ¥ (150$) and the turn signals cost me 17000 ¥ (150$)

We also took advantage and went to Ebisu!



I put my old wheels in the back and started drifting



And the car is AWESOME!



The car felt so good, the engine responded perfectly, the transmission also, the suspension although it was not adjustable or anything felt quite good, the brakes responded perfectly, and although it had 130hp, with the 800 or 900 kg it was quite fast, and apparently the previous owner (not my friend, the previous one), I change the relationship of the gearbox for better handling, The car behaved perfectly!

Although the car need several things ...

This car need a hydraulic handbrake, since having to do the maneuver to push the button and pull the normal brake takes a lot and sometimes you can lock the brake, in addition to the stock hand brake does not make enough force to block the wheels so strong as I need.

Needs coilovers, although the suspension is fine, is the original and has no adjustment, and also to lower it as it looks like a monster truck, and also has a bit of body roll.

Needs new brakes, although mine are good, I need bigger brakes to have more room for expansion for improvements, also to brake much better

I would need a bucket seat, since the original seat does not give me the necessary lateral support and I'm shaking all over the car.

I would need an exhaust, Well, not so much but I want a new exhaust, since mine sounds quite short and has several restrictions.

I need the gauges and an adjustment in the Apexi FC, since I want to try to get the most out of this engine in this setup and I need to see what happens in the engine, I would need a wideband, oil pressure clock, water temperature, voltmeter and some more.

And it seems that is all I need now ...



At least now the car is working perfectly, it is legal on the street and it is already looking beautiful! , Besides what I do, will still be comfortable enough to handle it in the city, maybe I'll end up selling the silvia, since that ae86 is being perfect for daily and the 4age is having a very low fuel consumption, perfect for the city , but with the possibility of being a very fast and fun car from 5000rpm, which does not happen with silvia, and to be a 2.0 and turbo makes me hurt a lot when going to buy gasoline lol, and it is not a car that I like it so much ...

Anything new I will let you know ...
