Re: opinions on coilover spring rates for daily/ light stree

I run 3.5 front and 3 rear with TRD dampers on a tarmac road rally car so Andrew ^ is right, you can go softer. This suits all road conditions in the U.K and make for a very nicely balanced car. Most people would say these rates are too soft for them though. ok i would like a nice balanced ride whe...

power door lock actuator mounting location.

i was curious where people mounted there power door lock actuators since the door panels in the ae86 are flat and the location of the lock rod is on top of the door handle rod. it kind of makes it a little tricky. =/

Re: w58 trans swap questions.

ya it was a 88 4runner. with a 22re. and it fits perfect. i was surprised also. he told me they used the same one and showed me the computer screen that the part # was the same that just the plastic gear was different. but some had the 31 tooth that i needed. i can take a pic and post it if you want.
