Re: Another 87 Gt-S Daily Coupe

Cloud-- Thank you!!! I was thinking of just throwing it all in a giant washing machine and dyeing if necessary.

With these JDM Gt-apex sets, although they are comfy, however I like the look of the kouki GTS seats much better. Want to trade?! :?:

Re: Another 87 Gt-S Daily Coupe

Jay: definitely. This one only cost $20 from the pick and pull. And the harness hooks right up!!!! The sound is even better too because I believe it outputs a little more power. I recently saw a buddy of mine take out Lexus 6x9s and set them inside where the stock speakers go. The grate looks good a...

Re: Another 87 Gt-S Daily Coupe

So I have been dealing with the high idle issue of 1500 and getting fuel cut as well. I cleaned the IACV and still nothing. Both coolant lines were hot going to it. And when I put it in hot water it did move. Maybe it's only partially opening and closing. I also pull a VSV line and the RPMs go down(...

Re: Another 87 Gt-S Daily Coupe

This is the best $20 I've ever spent. https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1838/30172400088_5b1399d567_z.jpg Extremely bright. However, I did not retain the dimming function for some reason. It's fine because I never drive that much at night. So it won't bother me long term. Looking to do suspension upgra...

Re: Opinions on Sr5 20v swaps vs GTS 20v swaps and conversions and everything else

I do admit, I should have just rebuilt my current Beams swap when it was still stock motor. But I was dumb and got starry-eyed by the Beams swap and took a bite that I wasn't ready yet. Mainly with time. It sucks being an adult. My current daily 86 will likely either be rebuilt or 20v swapped though...

Re: Another 87 Gt-S Daily Coupe

It is an authentic GTS that I got from Texas. I haven't had much time for building this since a majority of my time gets sucked up between work, school and the Beams build. So ive only done small things like oil changes and I'll be rebuilding the shifter soon as well.

Well, after a lot of working, school and moving 3 times, I have finally bought another AE86. This one will be my daily driver as it is overly stock. Here are some pics, more to come! I don't have many plans but to drive it. The previous owner sent a laundry list of what he has done to the car. Repla...

im actually not 100% sure however, most people order the entire SS kit once one fails. May be your bes bet to knock it out all at the same time.
