Hello my name is David out of Hawaii I own a 87 ae86 sr5 for about half a year now!! I am very new to the toyota game I have a 05 infiniti G sedan which yall will know alot different for the Corolla! My plans for the Corolla is full blown time attack/touge. I have a long way to go since I will be swapping a SR20det from a 4ac!! But i just thought i would throw myself out there and say hi!

I thought I'd re-introduce myself.

Though I've been kicking around the traps a while, I lost interest in the whole car thing for a while and started getting into 4WDing and Fishing. Now my fishing gear is worth more than my cars.


I have / had an AE86 Trueno Coupe, which I embarked on a massive build on about 4 years ago after being defected, but after moving to Rockhampton for work without owning a computer I stayed away from the forums.

Any ways, my folks are into me about getting "rid of that fucking car" from their back yard and after catching up with a few old mates from the car scene, I have decided to buy a new Coupe and put all my good bits in that and bin my current shell.

Can't wait to get involved again.

Oh yeah, I live in Brisbane again.

Peace,
Damien.

Heya, my name is Simon. I've been in QLD since 2009. My old man got me hooked on cars when I was a young fella, his pop did the same for him - it's in the blood. I'm a panelbeater by trade but haven't swung a hammer n dolly or slapped on the bogg for awhile. I've turned my hand to a few trades along the way mechanic, spray painter, car body restoration, custom body/ engine work, racecar crew member / test driver(speedway), hydraulics etc and have ended up as a Maintenance Engineer on the Sunshine Coast. I bought my first AE86 in my last year as an apprentice, gave it the once over and drove it all around NZ for the next 4 years. I've owned/ driven many a car (my uncle owns a classic car business- I worked for him for 3 years) 2,3,4,5,6,12,16 cylinders, but I had to go back to a toyota sprinter. There is a front wheel drive equivilant Pug 205 gti, it specialises in 4 wheel drifting, same power to weight ratio as the AE86. So, finding this site was a blessing the information here and contacts are endless, I wish my bank balance was as large. My 86 is my daily and has all the goodies attached, but as per normal needs tuning and parts to keep it hauling. I have limited amount of tools but a wealth of knowledge, so if any information or help is needed get in touch. Cheers.

Welcome Simon. Your knowledge and experience sound awesome. I'm hoping to organise a cruise later this month so hopefully you're able to make it along.

Cheers
Matt.
