A60 Daihatsu Charmant

A3A's seem to suit that car, looking good.

It looks great!
You can tune the 4AC a bit to make it a bit more interesting. 84hachi on Youtube has some nice videos about his endeavors.

Thanks!
Yeah i saw some people modding 4AC's. But may as well just put a 4AGE head on it to make things simpler to find, already had some trouble finding certain parts for the 4AC.
And I really hate the intake/exhaust design on these engines

Picked up a pair of Celica Supra MA61 seats last week.
Have to modify the rails a bit but think they are going to look awesome in it.

I feel like an idiot for asking, but what does this handle do?
The US spec AE86 seems to have the same handle, but I've never seen one in real life.

[DarkSupra]

Thats for the inflatable lumbar support

[banpei]

Yes indeed. On the AE86 it was only available on the kouki Japanese GT Apex and also the US GT-S. We didn't get these here in Europe.
But we did get them in the Celica Supra A60 and Supra A70.

The supra seats are awesome. Same colour as the ones I bought from banpei too, though yours are a bit more complete with that pump bladder.
Replaced mine with a BMW lumbar support pump, am currently in the process of adding in the wiring to the rear body wiring loom (there is a
very convenient unused fuse marked 'seat heater' on J/B1 that's routed to a connector of that loom).

There's a Charmant parked at an office on the industrial area I work at (Dordrecht), I pass by it on my lunchtime walk sometimes. Has to be owned
by an enthousiast since the last time I saw it it had SSR Starsharks (or similar) fitted. Not yours by any chance is it?

[DarkSupra]

Good to know if I ever need to replace the bladder!

That is probably Cherokee's Charmant.
I live in the south and mine hasn't been outside.

Well long time no update again..
While working on it I found out it was still missing some small parts that I couldn't find and wanted original parts for, so was very unmotivated for a while again.


I did find a JDM license plate surround in the meantime.



Then somehow a Charmant ended up at a junkyard and i saw it just in time.
Ofcourse I went the next day.

It was still untouched when I arrived.





At the end of the day it looked like this:





Glad I took the wagon..



Couple days later I went again to take some small parts.
This is how it was left at the end.
Sadly it still had some useable parts but they weren't worth what they ask for the parts.




After this I finally had all the parts that I still was missing.

Small teaser

[decryphe]

Holy shit, that's absolutely gutted! Didn't you want to just take the remainder too? xD
