I went camping for my birthday in the Angeles National Forrest. The cats on my Bronco are clogged and I need tires on the old pickup so guess which car got to go camping. Luckily it's a hatch. The carb wasn't too happy in the cold and altitude, but since it was only for the weekend I figured it wasn't worth adjusting.

^ Nice. Like the way you secured your intake. Did you also use a silicone 45 degree elbow from the afm to throttle body?

I put in some brand new in-box bumper lenses to replace the one I broke on the freeway hitting a truck tire, and then took it up to the mountains to really get in touch with what it means to own an AE86.

Hey guys pretty new to posting here, been lurking for ages. Got my car a couple months ago, changed the rear main seal and the trans output shaft seal while I was in there. Changed the wires and plugs to NGK, changed the starter, and some smog related things and passed smog... and cleaned her up as well as I could. Everyone keeps talking to me about this car haha.

Anyway, it started to rain today, and I couldn't do what I wanted to (finish clay bar-ing the hood) - so I took her out sliding for a bit ^_^

The SR-5 is pretty capable, even with a whining rear end. Pretty sure my ring and pinion are bad as well as my bearings so I've been thinking about getting a spool. I looked up how to set the backlash and bearing preload. I could get the tools and everything for it, but I think I might just hold off to get a GT-S rear end since I need brakes too.

Sweet Car Ritz ^. Replaced my slave and clutch master cylinder. Sore back after getting the four brake booster flange/nuts off from the inside of the car. So much better but very annoying task to say the least. Pic below is the booster moved out just enough to get the flange nut back on while balancing it on my two fingers :lol:

^If you slightly trim the nub at the end of that clutch master fastener there's enough room to get a ratcheting wrench on there without having to loosen the booster. I was even able to trim the fastener with a pocket hacksaw while everything was installed, but it was a pita.

Cut out some patterns of this insulation stuff, I don't think it will do much for sound but I have high hopes for it helping with the heat. Only had time for a mock up:
