Re: Join Date/Post Count?

Fair enough! these things happen. There's a gap in my knowledge because I sold my car to a friend, bought it back and shipped it down to where I had moved, then immediately ended up getting a job across the country a few months later and had to sell it a second time. no AE86, no forums. womp womp. T...

Join Date/Post Count?

Ok so admittedly I haven't been active since I sold the corolla (for the second time) just over a year ago, but I just noticed my join date and post count are way off. Considering I joined in, i'm guessing, about 2000-2001 it's a little upsetting. :( Did everything get reset when the forums were upg...

Re: To Sell or not To Sell?

guys. he's gone. honestly, i'm a bit sad, but it's for the best. the kid i sold it to reminded me of myself before i bought it in '03, namely that he had been looking for the right car for years and finally happened upon mine. just good to know he's picking up where i left off :-) Also glad that he'...

Re: To Sell or not To Sell?

none taken! and honestly, yeah. i'm not expecting that much, however,hence obo. if you don't live in california or somewhere else you can get a clean car you'd be surprised what people will pay.

Re: To Sell or not To Sell?

Red! thanks for the reply man, it's been awhile! that's part of my conundrum. I can find a much cleaner corolla in california to start as a base car if i sell this one and make the space. If i want to keep this one i know i'm going to get pedantic enough to want to put it on a rotisserie or somethin...

Re: To Sell or not To Sell?

If it were "your baby", you wouldn't be asking this question haha, touche :P very true. The thought of selling this thing (again! ugh.) is killing me. Actually you don't need a garage to pull axles. I changed my diff parked on the street. :mrgreen: also very true. i've done both axels, th...

To Sell or not To Sell?

and just like that, i have a conundrum. so after all the time and effort it took to get my coupe down to Houston, I just randomly got a job in the SF Bay area. This raises a lot of questions for me, though. First off, is it worth shipping an east coast car to the rust free west coast? the chassis is...

Re: Check Engine Light is on...NEED HELP!

check your FSM to show you how to check codes (and if you don't have one there are PDF's floating around somewhere). if the jumpers in the engine bay are bad, you may be able to jump the wires from the back of the ECU harness (but don't quote me on that! lol)

Re: My Never Ending Problems (surging idle, overheating,..)

I'm going to have to second Yosh on this one. go through your throttle body and make sure it's clean, the ports arent blocked, and the plate is closing correctly, and you don't have any broken vacuum lines. I'm also wondering why you've bypassed your IAC...

Re: I'M BACK!

you guys aren't kidding, so much has changed! it "feels" the same though which is awesome. Random aside, i was driving around LA last year and saw Moto crusing around in his Scion and got super pumped...and then i remembered i was driving a focus rental car (womp womp). The coupe is honest...
