I hope a corrolla of similar age live up to your high expectations [;)] judging from the way you vanished off down a strip of road on the drive home I'd say yours was pretty darn near perfect really for a 20 year old car.

no denying the corrolla do make a lovery noice though at full chat :eek:

hi just read this ,i had a 85 ae86 for ten years great car 85 model is best different gearing compared to 86 model mine was capable of 147mph with just a full janspeed and k+n filter and seven inch revoulations .now have fj silvia under rebuild.

sad to hear your braking the car up.... would you not prefer to keep your silvia as it is and use that as well as have the ae86???:confused: I have never seen your car but from what i have seen of it in pics i would say its an awesome looking example of a s12 :cool:

Don't do that, i want your wheels and engine! As for the weight of AE86, 950kg for the coupe, think the hatch about 20kg more, thats fully loaded with the interior. With a serious diet i think 700kgs would easily be achievable. As for power there are lots of options, a common engine conversions is 2.0 3S-GE from a MR2 non turbo or lexus/altezza IS200. Personally i would leave the 4AGE. With the right knowledge and money you can make them rev to that magic 10,000rpm:D with about 200bhp+ in extreme examples i've see 220bhp. So stripped out and tuned to the extreme thats a power to weight ratio of 285bhp per tonne and a 06 BMW M3 is about 220 bhp per tonne. I think you should get one, if you don't like it just put it in a garage for a 6 months and it will of doubled in value;)

Better off supercharging it and getting some torque :D

This is an old AE86 N2 cup car. Speaks for its self:eek: !

Yeah but he wants to buy one with just £4k? Tuning them isn't cheap.

Really easy to do, the 4AGZE is a supercharged version of the for 4AGE. which can be found in Supercharged mk1 MR2s, Bolts straight in;) I'd stick with NA tho

You make an appearance in this one too....
