Lauren's 1985 Kouki Trueno

[Lauren]

More news. Mark has finally got rid of the bit of hand towel cable tied round the vacuum pipes for the idle ups and done it properly, yay!

Now, I can have my headlights on without the idle dropping through the floor and activating the anti-stall on the ECU. Am very glad to get this sorted now my lights are on pretty much all the time.




Also, Mark is now busy fitting an OEM illuminated foglight switch. The car is now currently in this kind of state:





Nearly there with all the jobs ticked off.

As for AE86 life, well I have to say, I'm loving it, the heater works well, it's no probs to use in the cold and perhaps even more fun is to be had now the roads are nice and greasy. Only consideration I'm possibly thinking for the future is to put different suspension on as I really don't think the TRD suspension works well on UK roads. I think the way to go with this may be to look at uprating the ARBs and then running softer springs and something like Konis on the dampers. We'll see.
