AE82 & AE92 Gearbox..

Quote:What about gearbox from Celica STi 4A-FE...

Hmm, only the 2-litre Celicas were sold here in Finland so I don't have any info on the 1.6 ones. I think I'll need to look around if I could find anything..

Quote:What suspension modification you have on your AE82 ??

What do you recomend and from were do you get parts? I know only Whiteline in Australia that has stuff for AE82 ..

Well, we have made our own coilover struts and use Koni yellow shocks (for an Opel Astra, I think), Eibach 60mm ID coil springs and SuperPro polyurethane bushings.

The shocks, springs and the coilover sleeves are all quite generic stuff so they're available pretty much anywhere. The bushings we ordered directly from SuperPro;

They have bushings both for AE82 and AE86, as well as a whole lot of other Toyotas.

Here's a few photos on making the coilovers (the body of the coilover is the same 2" pipe we used for our exhaust );

Quote:Sorry about so many questions but here in Cro, in all country are 3 AE82.. And on the net isn't that easy to get some constructive thing's on AE82 ..

Yeah, I know - it's really hard to find info or parts specific for the AE82. I guess it just isn't a very popular car anymore, despite it still being a pretty quick and light (ours weighs under 900kg WITH fuel/oil/etc) little hatchback. It was used in N2 endurance racing in Japan alongside AE86 and even Tsuchiya himself has raced one!
