Women just don't understand(UPDATE!)
 
I found a ae86 for 500 bucks. GT-S and all. I need to come up with 500 bucks somehow before next week or find someone with a dealers licensce cause the dealership it's at is gonna just auction it off instead of trying to sell it on his lot. I already have two car but ---- it's a hachi!. The Volvo which is my daily driver and the Z but it must be guy thing in wanting multiple cars to which you know you don't really have the time for another car but it's just that you know when you do want that, that you can never find one or it's too much. There was a list of things in a old issue of SCC for the definition of a Automotive freak or something along those lines.

AE86's are hot cars. 500 bucks is a steal, go for it.

As in women just don't understand a man's love for cars and how are buying something now cause when you really want it it's nowhere to before then it just sits and collects dust and rust more then it is and is just an eyesore to all the other neighboors. :P But mommy I want it! *jumps up and down and stomps around* :1 Sorry wife no loving till I got the hachi in the driveway. lol. jk if she happens to read it.

I definately think there are more beat-up AE86's, but when they're done up right they are teh sex.

A nice AE86 with LSD, a 4age 20v motor built for boost and a nice fatty turbo... yum.

It's been years since the US actually got a Corolla hatch. Atleast since the early 90's if not the late 80's. It's looking pretty promising that I may get it. The wife said fine and just park it on the side of the garage. 8) Sweeeeeet.

Will post pics tomorrow after I pick it up. Wife wrote me out a check for it. Yeah now thats a wife. Didn't even argue or anything. She thought my idea of putting a door in the back of the garage so I can park a car in the backyard was pretty ghetto though. :P

Picked her up this morning. 147k on the completely stock engine. Nothing modded or anything. Woman owner and when the owner of the shop was getting the paper work he's like oh she gave me these to give to whoever gets the car. It was notes that were left on her car of people wanting to buy it from when she owned it. Still have factory floor mats, owners manual, and best of all .....ice cold a/c 8). Right now it has some big snow boggers in the rear and the stocker are in the back. I don't want to really do much to it at all cause I want to autocross it in the stock class. Only thing is just get better tires for the stock rims or something in the same size(14").

That's sexy, you could turn that around and sell for $2,000 easy, well around here anyways, if not more. Not too bad on the rust either.

stillnoturbo 05-26-2006 01:29 PM

Re: Women just don't understand
 
It desperately needs need tires are these are pretty bald and pretty tall and the car feels really floaty with them. Only downfall is it doesn't have the factory option diff. :'( I've got some cash coming my way soon and buy a worn LSD and get a T3 rebuild kit for it or have frank find me a lsd.

Haha.

Uhm, replace fuel filter/check fuel pressure... ghetto way to do this is cycle the ign key/fuel pump 2-3 times to build pressure before you try to start her up. Also inspect starter, when they start to bind up they crank the engine a bit slow.

---- a 20v, just boost what you have. Nothing wrong with one of those that 200-250 whp won't fix, and it'll still be pretty reliable.

4Aaron GE 05-26-2006 10:39 PM

Re: Women just don't understand
 
That's the older style car, so look for a yellow two pin connector under the hood somewhere. Jump the connection, and the fuel pump will turn on whenever the key is in the on position.

And just get a 4A-GZE shortblock out of an MR2 to boost. That bottom end is already built and pretty bulletproof. Unless it's beat. Which is probably is. But parts are still pretty cheap from the dealer.

And get a different steering wheel. That kleenex box type wheel that the US got really sucks balls.

i know some accord guys whod be willing to buy that flushmount for like 300bux. just go on cb7tuner and say that its a jdm flushmount and people will be over it like flies on ----.

stillnoturbo 05-26-2006 11:02 PM

Re: Women just don't understand
 
I don't mean it's a bad thing. Like I turn the key and the it turns over once and the second it starts up. Not like it try to start it once and then try again. I drove it just down the street cause I don't have plates for it yet and only titled it. Did a little e-brake action in a empty parking lot. I thought the tires were gonna fold over! lol >:D

wow nice buy! wish I was that lucky

I saw a 240sx yesterday that was painted spray paint flat black and license plate said "s13drft" It was quite humorous.

Re: Women just don't understand
 
I just figured Id add something to this thread that actually had something to do with the thread title

Im go upstairs to fix myself a quick dinner, very quick hopefully cause I wanted to leave soon. So I crack open a can of Heinz beans, throw it in a bowl, add a small layer of BBQ sauce, chop up 2 cold hot dogs and throw em in the mix. Throw em in the microwave for 2.5minutes.

Quick descent dinner right? Apprently not

I come downstairs to "WTF is that slop"

"Its my ------- dinner you wanna leave soon dont you, I could make some burgers if you feel like waiting...."

"Go ahead"

Bitch just dont understand, Im coverring 2+ food groups (I think) and it was quick and tasty. She just dont understand, so I used my extra time to come on the pc while shes upstairs waiting haha

oh my gosh, i would soooooo trade you if I had one. =P

Not the best looking car, but could be a sick ass project. I was actually thinking in the future I would like one too, who would guess. I have a sick ass concept floating in my head right now with one of those cars.

Re: Women just don't understand
 
Well I finally got her back from paint(Maaco's cause I'm ghetto and poor like that). Did the majority of the body work myself and the first time at that too! lol. It's not the greatest but it's getting fender flares anyways that are coming in a day or two. It's still jacked up since I don't get my Tokico shocks till wednesday but I have new Espelir ASD springs will should give it a nice drop and alot better ride. The Bride Ergo seat only cost me 180 from Takumi Project from where I got the wheels from also. Wheels are August Feroce's 14x7 up front and 14x7.5 in the rears. Not too crazy of a lip but after some elbow grease they look pretty nice. I'm gonna pick up some longer studs since I get like 4-5 turns on these right now which isn't that bad but I feel safer with more and I'm picking up some spacers so the wheels won't be so tucked in after the flares. It's not the greatest way of filling it up but I gotta work with what I got. I have to repaint the bumpers flat black and the the piece that goes on the headlight that they painted which was suppose to stay black but I never told them to keep it black so it's no biggie. This weekend it should be dropped and the bumpers painted and it'll be good to go. I only have less then 2000 in it so far including the car. Not too shabby. The engine is bone stock except for a new vatozone alternator but it's only going to get a header and intake and thats it. Thinking of selling the Volvo and using that as my daily driver. It's so nice to drive and alot cheaper then the Volvo.
