ae86 trueno

hey guys, havent posted for a very long time. here a bit of a project ive got going during the holidays. hopefully one day ill finish it. first i guess i need to know what to do....full turbo engine, or stock looking?
i think turbo will suit the drivetrain mods and such

a few quick pics to give you an idea. i need a new body btw, this one is ruined form too much painting.

better pics when i have time to take them

nice project, but where did you get one? how much was it and who makes it?

i'd go for drifter style, stock exterior(maybe carbon fibre hood), interior: stripped, rollcage, racing seat. engine:full turbo engine

keep it up

Cool;) This reminds me of mrceej for some reason:lol: Where has he gone?

IMO, since its an AE86, i'd say keep it N/A:)

I'm still here, but not for much longer. Looking good by the way, good idea changing out the rear to independant suspension.

i say FULL TURBO! woot. but it depends on what you like. build for yourself!

yep, im thinking ful turbo too. i can always make another stock one as a replica. so now to get it moving again..
and btw, this is a fuljimi kit, i cant remember how much it was, ive had it for a long time, and are they out of production now?

Lookin nice. Good luck on the engine. Nice icon. Is that you?
