Tom_Diablo If you don't mind imporing one, Akira (Ryos brother) has a black/white Panda Trueno like I had. Maybe you can convince him to buy his old beater since he is nagging all the time over it.
DeXXter If you could get me some pics so i know what work i'd have to do that wouldn't be a Problem and i'd love to import a genuine JDM Trueno. If he isn't sure about selling it or if i'd keep an eye on the Car just show him my Garage that might convince him.
Tom_Diablo Sure It's a Kouki 86 with a Silvertop swap. He got the engine for dirt cheap, drifted that thing and killed it that way. Doesn't run that good and he lost his muffler but he hasn't registred it anymore. It has some rust but only on the surface. The motors for the headlights are stuck but everything else is working okay. You can phone him: gives number. His english isn't that good so if you can speak japanese it would be easier.
DeXXter Well if you could do the Translation i'd be happy i take it no matter what, how long would it be till i can get it here? I'll pay his asking Price just to own a JDM AE86 also you guys seem to be import experts so i'd be better of with you doing the Paperwork.
Tom_Diablo I don't know. A few days by plane. And of course Ryo can do all the needed paperwork. Akira is eager to speak with you XD He says he'll give it away for about 145,000 Yen which is about 1200 USD.
DeXXter [4 Days Later] As soon as the Plane touched the Ground i got a call that my Car arrived but i had to pick it up at the customs office they said something about the Engine Emissions, to loud and all that Bullshit so they took the Engine away and well now i was owner of a Sprinter Trueno with no Engine but srsly who cares at that point it was blown anyway as far as i got that. while the Dudes there were ripping out the Engine one of them asked me if he could have the Rims for his Toyota Truck i wasn't sure if they would fit but agreed and just rushed home to grab myself a Kouki Rim Set i had sitting around with good tyres when i came back they were finished ripping out the Engine so i put on the Rims and got it outside. I will keep it forever, well after i sorted out those small rust issues cause otherwise forever would be a short time.
DeXXter So i got it on the Trailer and in my Garage First i noticed a slightly diffrent Color on the Body so i decided to polish it abit with Meguiars Ultimate Compound annnnddd done! looks like new. next thing was the "Rust" on Plastic Parts srsly thats imposible so i also tried to polish it. and there we go perfect again might've been some water that dragged the rust down there not that unusual The fenders itself don't seem that bad at all i've seen worse but i'd say so far so good i'm waiting on my new Blue Top Engine now. Added 2 minutes later: What exactly is that Stupid shit you've done i like that car.
Tom_Diablo It was sitting outside all year long so rusty water settled on the plastic parts What do you mean by "stupid shit"? You want to offense me?
Tom_Diablo Oh, okay. Dexxter, please write "@[name]:" when you talk to someone particular. I thought you were talking to me. Sorry for that, marcus.
DeXXter It's here, not a Blue Top but 210 HP Black Top 😃 it was a "special gift" from my Engine Expert that i bought 3 Blue Top from he arrived at my Garage with 3 of his Workers and they gave me a Hand putting the Engine in. Added 11 minutes later: and while we were at it i did the typical Running Gear Update GReddy Shocks Brembo Breaks redid all the Bushings and everything that would make it handle bad. What do you and your friends think Tom?
Tom_Diablo I think you have a potential drifter there. Really like these rims. Akira agrees on the handling point. Ryo says that you can buy parts from him for your 86 and wanted to know if you could spread around word where you got the car from.
