Project Jap AE86

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well Folks,

Firstly this is my first ever project car so go easy on me when I am looking for answers of stupid questions . I have been wheeling an dealing in cars for ages now and have had most jap imports out there really. I have always been an AE86 head at heart so I was on the look out for a good base to start off with for a while now. Money is tight at the mo so most of the jobs I will be doing will be sponsered by the dole an what ever money I can muster up. The only real money I would be willing to spend on would be wheels for now. Will post full spec when I get time to think of everything. So here it goes..........

As I bought the car ..

Next up is an oil change (diff&engine), plugs filters etc, sort out ride height and I think I will go with 20mm spacers for now until I source my new wheels. Will keep thread up dated as I go along!

I dont mind paying decent money for the right wheels but its even hard to find them when they are expensive never mind cheap haha. I am considering a set of Custom Image wheels ta fuck. They are pricey but I am only goin to be buyin them once and I want them to be the shizzle :D. Looking at 14x8-5jj -20 or so :cool::cool: Not in a mad rush so might wait an see could I get my hands on some ssr's first. I have a load of other jobs that I want to get done. I plan to leave it exactly as I want it. Manual steerin is annoyin me at the moment. i know it gets better reviews than p/s its just annoyin me at the mo but I will get used to it haha.....

I wouldn be a fan of 13's on a cam. They are ideal for a starlet alright. Y e call down any evening. Just give me a shout. I am thinking of goin with set of ssr mesh now.
