Well hes selling his silvertop for $200. I looked at ebay and online junkyards and they go for 1200. Id figure id just take the 20v somewhere who rebuilds it and slap it on there and save some money for a turbo kit.

I need to know whats more worth it. I have a buddy whos selling his silvertop but it needs to get clearance checks because it was dissembled. I want to boost it but havent read a lot about people boosting 20v and if so how much boost before the motor explodes. Should I buy it or just get a 4AGZE? I ...

What's with all the beef? I thought the point of club is helping And support. He wants his car like that. What's your problem with that. Everyone wants there car a certain way, and so what if people do jdm follow a "hype" or what ever. I don't see why it even gets under your skin and to a...

thanks man i appreciate it. I'm sure i'll hit some road bumps but when the pieces make the puzzle it'll be one nice car.

"Yeah what does a shelby and ford have to do with replicating something that cant be bought in america?" Who says you can't buy a JDM RHD Black Limited in America? You want one? I can make a phone call and have it delivered to your front door, if you want to pay for it. Doesn't matter if ...

"Shelby is part of Ford not in a sense that theyre the same company but Shelby uses Ford's mustangs and modifies them to sell them as a Shelby Mustang Cobras. So i don't understand what it has to do with this situation." Look at it this way. Ford built all the Mustangs. Shelby customized ...

'they are now classics" You and I may think so, but ask Hagerty's or one of the collector insurers and they are pretty clear about "riceburners need not apply". Period. Not classics. Taking a US market car (and really, whatever-Densu-Motors, have you ever found any reference to any s...

You're right. I'm still dancing with the one that brung me. JDM is as original as its going to get has down. Yeah we hve USDM parts that fit our regulations for our roads, but these cars are 20+ years old. Im sure theres people who still use them as a daily driver but these cars are meant to sit in...

My car is a head-turner and gets attention all the time. "Look at that crappy corolla on the tow truck again." Paint it some weird dumbass color and you'll get all the attention. My paint job cost me less than 30 bucks, and half of that was for PBR. I dont want my car being a head turner ...

I want to keep my manual rack. Its not going to be full black limiteded in the inside mainly just the exterior. And its not going to be repainted by maaco or rattle can'd. Ill be taking to a professional auto paint where itll be professionally painted to look brand new. I could careless about steeri...

i guess if you dont have enough of a sense of style to build a cool looking car on your own. have fun drawing in the sea of replica ae86's that is the entire USA. I dont understand this statement. Why wouldnt i have a sense of style in building a cool looking car. Notice how majority of people who ...

Well it'll look JDM stock from the outside but upgraded in the inside. I don't see a difference between doing a BL build then a usual panda Corolla build other then price on parts, but like I said its going to look Bl outside since im not to concerned with the inside since im going to reupholster t...

Honestly. I would not listen to what these guys have to say. If you wanna make your car look like what you want, then do it. Its your personal car and all that matters is if your happy. Dont build/design your car to meet others expectations.... build it only to fit yours. Sure it may cost a lot and...

Dude, those are PART NUMBERS not color codes. You're going to build a car and you don't know what a part number looks like? And they are part numbers for a "JDM" aka Japanese Domestic Market car, that never was sold in the US and would not meet DOT/EPA regulations if simply brought here f...

You're trying to build an authentic right hand drive car? Or just a lhd "tribute" car? AFAIK anything that says "Trueno" never was sold in the US market although a black Limited was sold here, I vaguely thought in the '87 model year. Decals and stickers are not likely to exist s...

Thats for all the support guys. It's going to come out super clean. Im not going to half a$$ anything. I have a buddy stationed in japan hes good with the corollas. He brought back a rhd one when he was stationed in japan before i had met him here in usa. He left cause japan's US bases was better.

Right on i appreciate it

Ok so I decided I want to build a clean Black Limited corolla. I need as much information as I can obtain for the build. -So far I know: -only made in 1986. -kouki front and kouki rear bumpers -power windows, remote side mirrors, power steering -redline tail lights What I want to know: -what wheels ...

Well i dont want it sticking out.

Efff ya.

I was talking about nitrous.

Whats the advantages of manual rack anyways and why do ppl prefer it? The ae86 in japan do they have manual rack.

And what do you mean almost everything comes out is retro

yeah i guess i should stay without powersteering. Im just from the generation thats been spoiled with all these car features. Sticking old school would be a rare thing in my generation.

lol cause i see where a power steering pump would be but its gone.

if i do turbo i want to put a intercooler of course. What if i get forged pistons with turbo? Is there more ways I can beef the internals without a swap?
