Levin Coupe from Croatia - NOW SR86 with IRS

[ZaX]

2 nohachi: good point. I on purpose didn't slam the rear end of the car too much because i still don't have tracktion brackets and adjustable panhard rod. I also read that it's easier to drift without tracktion brackets.


Fog lights instaled and connected. Old skul InitialD style

Very nice!

Since my last driftday i was working on my car, preparing it for winter:
- changed the gearbox, previous didn't want to downshif from 5. -> 4. and 4 -> 3.
- replaced the oil in LSD (was in for cca 1000km), i found small spring on magnetic drain plug
- removed adjustable coilovers, RCA's, camber plates, wheel spacers
- instaled AE86 Koni's with h&r springs
- replaced rear springs with softer ones, adjusted koni's for less stiffnes
- fixed the mufler because it went woobly from excesive off-road trips on drift day
- replaced the rear lights with tinted ones, i broke rear right in contact with fence on driftday
- drained the coolant, cleaned the engine wiht some kind of acid, drained it 3 times, pour in fresh anti-freez coolant
- i think i fixed the leakage of water to the passanger foot area.

Went for a ride, car is very comfortable after 3 months on 8kg/6kg springs. But, it won't drift that easy, lot of grip now.
Next month i'm buying some 13" winter tires. I should make some mud flaps, too!

By looking at your car setting, person can now which time of the year is, or wich part of the year is soon to come

I'm thinking of puting some over-fender flares on my ae86, like CBY car has.

Here are some "demo" pictures.





I would also need some wider wheels.

That sure does look nice, there's nothing that touches my heart like a widened AE86!

You got a contact for these parts?

Just kidding. Found flares on a junk yard.

Rear springs were like 66€, custom made.

Since i live in croatia, i have friend in US who buys everything for me and then send stuff to me.

I buy most stuff online.
Ivica aka pero buys stuff directly from Japan, so he kindly offers me if i need something from time to time.

Current bill for my AE86 is above 5500€, including the 2200€ i paid for the car.
I own my ae86 for about 1 year, so i spent around 500€ every month on my car.

ok so can i then order by you :-) custom springs here where like 150 euro's per spring :-( and what i need is nowhere to be seen
