There is no other video on You tube that is this detailed. Thank you brother for answering so many questions that I've been needing for so long ( details are sparse on UA-cam. I am a huge Honda Civic EJ1/EJ8 fan and I also have great respect for this generation Corolla Sprinter/ Levin. If I ever bought a car from a rivaling class as a Civic it would be one of these. I would choose this over any other of the larger legends because low weight is important to me and since RWD is so good this car would be perfect. I have the same model Civic as the one in the opening scene of the Fast and the Furious 1. Hopefully.ome.day I could drive one of these cars just to see what it feels like. Maybe own one as well a dream because of ↗️💲 great video and personality 👍🏾🔰🏎️🔥🇯🇲🇺🇸
@sheldonlamey7010 thank you for your kind words 🙏 I also love the early hondas, especially the EF civic. The 86s are great fun to drive and very simple to drive due to such great engineering from toyota. If you ever get the chance take one out for a drive 🙂👍
The love of AE86 and me go way back to 1998 after a few Option videos. They were cheap and plentiful, and can be purchased for $500 then. I had 6 over the years. I owned many other faster and better cars, but the AE86 is fun to work on and so rewarding to drive. It's my time machine back to the glorious bygone era where things were simple and sexy.
And that is way i love these cars. A pleasure to work on and so rewarding to drive 👍
Awesome mate look forward to more vids.
I love the condition of yours, it's odd you have the digital dash but you have a GT-V, I was under the impression they were only on GT Apex under optioned to not include it. I won an auction on Friday in Japan for a panda Trueno GT Apex with the Initial D Fujiwara tofu shop livery too haha. 20v blacktop, and the interior is v good condition so I'm very happy. I'd loveto clean up my engine bay and interior to make it as clean as yours! Especially that red special steering wheel - seeing as I have the Initial D livery I need to get that wheel and the cup holder haha
Thank you for the kind words buddy 🙏 it's amazing that you have one coming, they are brilliant cars! My car is an apex model. I had the apex decals by preferred the look of the gtv so had those installed instead lol. The steering wheel was a little project i came up with a couple of years ago and was only achieved by knowing great people with incredible talents 🙂
Wanted one my whole life but sadly I just cant afford one Nowdays
Ya people do want to have a race and I do abilge them ..hav beaten a few diesel remapped golf and audi A4..they were salty after..lol..Nice car mate really clean
Unfortunately I never win if I do decide to give it a go lol. Thank you 😊👍
@@ukautocollective put in high lift cams pulls a lot harder.
@@maxrocatansky5516 that is something I have wanted for the car but unsure what set to buy. I wouldn't want to run a piggyback ecu.
Hi. I am in the process of buying an ae86 just like this one but before i do i wanted to ask you if you regret buying yours? Also the car im looking at has been resprayed a horrible colour but originally it was silver like yours should i get it resprayed back to silver or white and black? Any chance i could get some pictures of yours just to see the colour
Hi 👋
I have never regretted buying any of the cars i have owned but mostly regretted selling them. The 86 is the best investment i have made yet. I am lucky that i paid a small amount for this car considering the current value of them. Being silver over black is a bonus due to rarity as it was a short lived colour option so i would keep the original colour on your car for sure 👍
@@ukautocollective thank you for getting back to me. Im really looking forward to getting it. I hope you dont mind me hassling you when i get mine 😂. I think your right i might just take it back to original colour as its rare
@@helpmehowtochannel4715 i think that's the right choice imo. I think they look great in silver 👍 The Toyota colour code for the silver is 147. I don't mind helping you where i can buddy. Message me via my Instagram if you need anything @Spanner_86 🙂
Are parts difficult to find?
It depends what parts you are looking for. There are people i have met worldwide which can offer parts which you will find difficult to source. The price can be high though. It can take years to find a particular item.
