Re: WTB - 84 to 87 Corolla Hatch or Coupe (SR5 or GTS)

Yeah they think a dohc fuel injected engine doesn't run as clean as the sohc carb'd 4AC lol Mine has a CA legal cat on it and will pass the sniffer if you have a smog guy that will skip the visual. Well, I'd say I think I know someone who would, but when asked, he suggested sticking to a 4AG or 4AC...

LOL! I'm sure it's an awesome car, too. Are there really no mods that can be done to bring those into compliance? I guess it'd have to be a CARB-approved mod, huh?

WTB - 84 to 87 Corolla Hatch or Coupe (SR5 or GTS)

Yeah, pretty wide open idea, huh? The time has finally come...in the next few months (say, between now and about October 2016), I am going to finally be in a position to buy an 86. I've been watching Craigslist since December and I feel like the market across California has dried up worse than our r...

Re: Looking for AE86 Advise (Buying, Technical, Local Clubs)

This is a great thread to read. I'm also pretty much in a position to purchase my first 86 and I realize there's going to be a decent learning curve coming from air-cooled VWs, but I'm eager to learn. Being in California, I'm really only looking at cars already in-state and smoggable (thanks to our ...

Re: ***SF Bay Area NorCal First Friday 86 Meetup***

Not sure where else to post this, but I finally did it...there's what I believe is a zenki 86 along my route to work that appears to have been sitting for quite a while (it's in Fremont, that's all I'll reveal ;) ) and this morning I finally left a "hey, if you ever want to sell, give me a call...

Re: ***SF Bay Area NorCal First Friday 86 Meetup***

Nice to see there's stuff going on in my area. Are First Fridays a decent place to come out if you're looking to learn more about the cars and the local culture? Yes. Cool, thanks! I'll have to see about making it out sometime. This is a whole new interest for me (you know, water-cooled, front engi...
