To be honest the only way l can see an issue with what they charged is if they didn't adhere reasonably closely to a written quote. I don't know about the US but in the U.K there is a distinct legal difference between a quote and an estimate. I guess thats the problem...I never received a quote and...

I supplied all the parts and got hit with a $5000 bill

Are you saying £1400 + £2000 = £3400?

Hey there. I bought a BC stroker kit with 83mm pistons, MRP crank girdle, Kelford 193C cams, dual valve springs, titanium retainers, bronze valve guides, etc. I sent it to the machine shop to get head and block assembled on a 7 rib block. Here is what they did: Steel shot blast block Align hone main...

I’m trying to fit some center caps on the front wheels but the dust caps protrude a lot so not sure if there is an alternative. Let me know!

I am curious to see what is the "OEM" option for the fog lights for a JDM AE86? I have seen ones that say Halogen and I have seen ones that say Toyota? Anyone know? Also, does anyone know how to "refurbish" these? I was looking online for decals, and potentially may want to take ...

Any thoughts on either of these options? I know the Fujitsubo is ~2in exhaust and the Reinhard comes in either ~2in or ~2.25in. https://shop.battlegarage-rs.com/products/fujitsubo-legalis-r-s-tail-exhaust-muffler-ae86 https://reinhard.jp/en/shop/dual_muffler.html ---- https://reinhard.jp/en/shop/pdf...

Has anyone seen this?

Has anyone purchased this setup from T3? Any pro's and con's of it? Especially just for refreshing the steering rack in the car. Thoughts?

Great information, I appreciate it very much. Will keep this thread updated as things progress forward.

Keep in mind though, if the shop doesn't do an excellent job installing your sleeves it could turn out very bad.

I may have asked this question…but is this worth getting?

Hi everyone! Giving a quick update. So the BC stroker kit is still pending...ordered in April 2022 and targeted to deliver end of August 2022...so lets see. Have purchased some good engine bits along side this kit: 1) Kelford 193-C Cams 2) MRP Sump w/ extender 3) SuperTech Dual valve Springs 4) Supe...

For higher than average HP builds or higher RPMs (9k+), is a harmonic damper worth getting? Does anyone know of reputable brands that sell one? Google search only found a couple, but have no clue which one to get: Ross Performance Parts https://rossperformanceparts.com/product/toyota-4age-rwd-harmon...

What’s the best head gasket for this setup? I’m assuming cometic or something, probably at least a 1.0mm right? 0.8mm may be too high compression with the pistons being 12.5:1

I would suggest a crank girdle for any engine spinning to ridiculous RPM. Most would stop at ladder caps to strengthen the main caps, but the girdle will cut out a lot of the flex in the main bolsters at high power and/or RPM. In a stroked engine the crank gets pushed sideways more than with the st...

Pissed off jondee? no. I'm disappointed that there are still peeps out there that refuse to accept our eccentric, eclectic "brotherhood". Just 'cause you drive a Lambo doesn't mean you're too good for the guy in an MR2. Slammed, stanced, donk, aero, bosozoku, drag, drift, trailer queen, a...

Yeah, doing two tone. The car originally came with it so just putting it back the way it came

I purchased a new windshield but it was a RHD one…so hope it works well. https://i.ibb.co/HdPgDGh/0-E31-DEA2-E2-FA-45-F8-869-E-32-F0377-F8219.jpg https://i.ibb.co/CK4xkN5/BE9-E6-B11-4772-432-E-8-F56-F8-D3-D3-C8-A1-BA.jpg https://i.ibb.co/gwV0Zjx/E190-E078-88-EA-49-E6-B400-B700-E6-B22458.jpg

It is kind of interesting, and not related to the OP's question, but since this thread is already f**ked I'm going to add my own comments :) Why is it that every time a topic about a high power 4AGE build comes up it always degenerates into a debate about 7AGE builds versus the world ?? Why does ev...

So I have a question. I have the JDM front and rear bumper and I just want to restore it to the same way it looks, with that SEM trim black color that it has on the lower part and the white paint on the top. My question is more on the black polyurethane part…what’s the best way to paint it? Very cur...

I was wondering if anyone had the full details on a specific question I had related to the head cc volume for the 3 rib blue top? Let me know! Thank you.

Hmmm...but this would be the AE86 JDM version compared to either an AE86/AE88 VIN [SR5 vs GTS] US version comparison right? I saw that post from earlier but not sure if that really helps to answer my question.

Hi there, just like the title says. I keep hearing that there is a difference between the two and for the life of me I cannot figure out how it would be different. Can anyone help shed light on this? Thank you!

hey there, can you explain this a bit more to me?

Just like the title says, has anyone ever built one and if so…what was the experience. Any pitfalls, any things to think about?

Little bit of oil ??? I guess that is a little bit in Texas :D Looks like someone might have had an OOPS when filling the oil and spilled some.
