Re: New Annex Coilovers or...Old faithful TRD Blues etc..

This thread has been active as hell! Good to see! The Annex kit will be more compliant than the FA kit and includes several proprietary features that help in both noise reduction and increase in ride quality WITHOUT a sacrifice in performance. P.S. The red hatch back doing track duty in all the Anne...

Do you have a picture? The T50/T51 rear output bearings are different. For a T51 (ae86) it should be shielded on the back side.

On one of my 4AGE motors I just used a standard pipe plug and gasket sealer. Should be able to get one at your local hardware store. If it is a real tight clearance requirement, you could get a pipe plug with a Allen Socket Head. Davew7 This is probably your best solution. Similarly I needed to cha...

Re: Aukword1's Beams Swapped AE86

Going to the altezza slave shifting was definitely not as smooth as when I had the oem slave installed. A big difference in our set ups thought is that I'm 4age -J160 via SQ adapter. I might have sorted it this afternoon though. I had a slave push rod from some w58 equipped car that was about 3-5mm ...

Welcome! I'd rethink forced induction. If you want a power car this is the wrong chassis. BEAMS swap can be drop in and A LOT less headache than trying to go turbo.

Did you have to do anything special to bolt the ae86 slave to the J160? I ground part of the bellhousing away where the 86 slave fluid ports hit, but I guess I didnt grind enough because last time I tried to reinstall one of the ears cracked and broke off. But likewise I dont feel like I am getting ...

Got my driveshaft back today (Shout out to South Bay Driveline in SJ). J160 and W5x input/output shaft (38mm 21 spline trans yoke) measurements are the same so if you needed a clutch alignment tool or dummy tailshaft to plug up the trans, any W5x should work. https://i.imgur.com/QdWwJGol.jpg I splic...

He used rubber bands with the theory being the gear oil will soften and disintegrate them at some point. I would agre...
