Re: what tranny spins counter clockwise?
Actually Techno Toy Tuning has one as their track car. Go check out the American Touge 2 dvd as it's on there. Why is it jdm gay? lightweight rwd chassis with a light, high reving factory engine, 6 spd tranny. I don't see what's wrong with that. Yeah the engine isn't some torque monster but with an 86 you don't need that. I think it's the perfect swap and even better then a SR swap for an 86.

And, stillnoturbo? I am sorely dissappointed as you normally get ---- right. A swap into an AE86, wtf? The 4A-GE is one hell of an engine, and capable of most anything that's thrown at it with some forgings. Think of a cast iron block D16. They rock.

Hmmmm, 4AGE, I wanted to swap one of those into my 87 tercel and turbo it. Damn, I miss that thing.

You gonna use pixy dust to turn the cams and water pump? Not to mention a whole slew of other problems.
Getting the motor to run in reverse is much easier.

Then the diffs in the front and rear would 1:1. HAHA.
didnt even think about that, would prob be more reliable than just running one axle. if running it AWD i would use an LSD instead of welding it though
only problem about AWD w/ a 4cyl honda is the major lack of torque. only option, 86x95 straight LS on boost

Cut out the rear floor pan and run the car in a mid engined set up. Fitting a front end into the rear of the car. Alot of custom fabrication work, but perfectly possible for someone of your skill.
