lol 4th wife, are divorces cheap in japan? Those Okinawan birds sound fine. How much for a mailorder bride? Been following your projects on club4ag. Those t3 panels look awful, for that price i would expect them to be better quality.
Yeah, I have bad luck with marriages. Or after awhile I just want something new, really though I just need to quit getting married and just enjoy a variety. I just love women, maybe a little too much, hahahaha. I love Okinawan women, a majority of them are petite just the way I like them. Yeah them T3 panels are garbage. I will never buy from them again. Rhett(ToyCoolRolla) is making FRP panels, said he would let me test them out, lookin forward to that.
love this build and the cars you have there, if you dont mind me asking roughly how much would a 86 in need of some tlc cost in Japan ?
Thanks guys, Only thing holding me up on my car is my old 32, trying to get it out of my name so I can register it Up until a few years ago you could find them in the $2k range in decent condition if you knew where to look. But now you can find a fixer upper for $4k and up. I just paid $4k for this one. I did find two mint 86's for $6k.
Plans have changed with my build. Now that I have a 2 year extension over here on Okinawa, I'm breaking out my old turbo motor. I have everything I need to put it together, except a downpipe, which I will get made locally. It will run a gated HKS to4e on a HKS manifold. The motor has been rebuilt, head ported with 264/272 cams and SDS will control it all. Will also need bigger injectors, not dealing with ghetto subinjector setup again. I'll keep this updated I love the sound of ITB's, but miss the sound of the screaming wastegate on the old gal
These wheels were in pretty rough shape, so I sanded them and prepped for paint, I was bored I had some black, silver, panzer grey, pearl blue metallic, and some white. I decided to mix the silver and panzer grey which became gunmetal grey Turned out pretty nice Set up the gun and loaded it up The tires are garbage, so no masking needed, first of many coats Mixed quite a bit of paint so I prepped these and painted them too Still had paint left over so I shot these Wats that I will be selling soon Turned out pretty good, I like it I will wetsand the lips and clear next weekend
She is still chillin in the garage now, but hopefully will be on the road soon. My 11yo son Kaze is coming for the Summer and purchasing his $2000+ plane ticket is priority. BUT I'm also trying to get the car on the road before he gets here. Yesterday I spent all morning juggling paperwork and parts to get my 32 outta my name. That cost me around $400 because I hadn't paid the road tax on her since I garaged her 4 years ago, kinda sucked, BUT she is outta my name and now I have a opening for my 86. Thought about making her J-plate, but with my 4th marriage on the rocks, I refuse to risk loosing my car in a divorce. All that is left is to Insure and JCI her and she is G to G. I'm itchin to drive her Plus once she is paper legal, then the fun mods will begin, I got a ton of great stuff for her just sittin in my storage room
Love this thing. Nut riveter gun Gave my girl some piercings After JCI inspection, all of that grey under the overfender will be cut out. Both overfenders mounted, got the pass corner light off of an extremely rusty 86, still gotta hit it with some polish - - - Updated - - - Thank you
Dream car looks awesome and dream country too , 4th divorce? Eddie Murphy RAW popped into my head when i read that "SHE WANTS TO TAKE HALF!"
Sorry no fun mods yet, soon though. Thanks for the feedback Breathing life into some old AE86 Levin headlights I got from my bro Skrappy. The glass was covered in a thick rust film. So I scraped it with a razor blade. Was absolutely stoked to see the reflector in good shape. Ill remove n chuck the old rusty brackets then clean them up pulled the glass Beautiful, not bad for almost 30 years old Painted and sealed. Still needs a little cleaning. replaced the upper and lower eyelids A Clockwork Orange overhauled headlights installed. I missed these on my old car "Blue"
