So my celi's head is about to blow on me amd ive been figureing how much it would cost to replace my head or get it fixed. So its gonna be up around $2000 for a new head, cleaning, rebuilding, gaskets and installation and then duin the timing. So i found out i can get the threads on the one spark plug that is messed up replaced/recut/coiled for around $300. But it would still leave my head a ticking time bomb. So i got an e-mail from my friend Renato who is living over in japan. He had his AE86 for sale a few months back. I was thinkin of buyin it but my dad refused. Any ways, i was thinkin of sellin the celi again and buyin his AE86 and throwin a silvertop in it. His AE is absolutely mint condition, comes with 2 sets of rims and 3 sets of tires. 1 for drift, 1 for street and 1 for winter. Any ways, heres the pics of the AE as is now.
    he has the trunk plastics just not installed cuz they arent cut for the strut bars   Mods: Sprinter tails, JDM badges, KAAZ 1.5way LSD, KGMM springs, 45 way adjustable Tokiko shocks, TRD suspention bushings, bigger sway bars, stainless braided break lines, Sparco rally wheel, momo shift knob, 2inch stainless mandrel bent exhaust system, and he has the pieces to make a short ram or CIA for the 4age. Motors got 156xxxkm on it. Car is like a street legal go-kart. And im Sept, im goin back 2 school and im gonna be livin alone. IE im gonna b drivin to work and to go shopping only. SO im thinkin of gettin somethin a lil better on gas and somethin that would be fun to run around. Plus if he still is selling his car for as much as he was b4, i could buy the car, do a silvetop swap and buy new brackets for my other sparco. What do you think??
