Those who had seen the car prior to the restoration knew about the huge rust holes and missing rear quarter

[Redlyne_mr2]

Nice new rear arch

[Redlyne_mr2]

[Redlyne_mr2]

coupe and hatch

[Idratherbsidewayz]

:drool: Wow this car has the potential to be beautiful, what color is it getting painted? One more question, was all the work done yourself?

[crazyning]

Paint it white and black and put the "tofu shop" japanese writing on it.

i see you attempted the mirror fender trick.. that rear quarter arch use to be a front passenger side fender eh?

[littledan]

looking good... can't wait to see it with some fresh paint! :thumbsup:

[hjr]

glad to see the progress.

in the 2nd pic, did you replace anything there?

Anyways, good to see folks taking on their own bodywork. its truly not as hard as it seems, just very anoying and time consuming.

who about this color? i think its quite snappy!

I always liked the datsun 6 spokes..

[shadowz]

Tight all you need is some Truneo bumpers

[Danger_Mouse]

huh... was this thread dug up from the dead??? Cause I saw Redline_Mr2's AE86 at a beyond meet and it looked mint.... unless he has 2?

Anyways, looks nice, but the one at the meet with the Trueno front bumper is :bigpimp:!!! Post some pics plz Ryan

[Lo)2enz0]

every time I see a ae86 i regret not buying methods when I had the chance. nice 4age you have there though. damn, I don't even know what to say but this is one hell of a ride.

laurier

[illeagle]

do white, The color white hides alot of paint defects ie. dirt, dents, sand scratches

[choweyt3t4]

[Dj_Stylz]

Since its a 4age meant for rwd its all the same, I retained the stock intake manifodl, injectors and ecu as I was having troubles sourcing out another ecu

Dark colors also show all imperfections, the lighter colors really help to hide things..thanks for all the kind words guys

Hey chowey,

It looks like Redlyne used the stock TVIS largeport manifold. How'd you get that to fit?
It will fit if he has the crappy ass redtop from the usdm ae92 which is the least powerful 4age (9.4:1 compression). . . or he made a conversion plate to fit the TVIS manifold to the smallport, hi-comp 4age (10.3:1).
Otherwise, it's not the hi-comp smallport motor. . .maybe he swapped the blocks and retained the high-comp bottom-end?

[Zephyr]

nice job......but what about the mr2?

[Redlyne_mr2]

Hehe no one sees the mr2 until its near completion or perhaps even finished

[compaction]

Ta,Takumi?

[Cueman]

If the engine is from Vickers car, it's a later model large-port TVIS.

Looks good Ryan...

[dj ambiguous]

hey, could you get more pictures of the rear arches and how you got the fenders to fit?

[ninspeed]

Hey man, Looks great.. I have to admit, i really like the look of this car in red with the black two-tone (yours stock)... look at jeffs after i painted the lower part of the doors and rockers.. i think it looks nice

I had the fender pics but my gf deleted them by accident. what i did was a cut the top layer of the old arch out and tucked the new arch into the top layer of the car body. I then used fiberglass bondo to smooth things out. the fender arch doesnt go right to the bottom of the car. It stopped about 4 inches from the bottom I then cut the lower part of the front fender to use as a rocker. I like the look it has a small amount of flair that works with my rims

[cocoabrova]

Car's looking good man. Every time I see a restored AE86, I regret getting rid of mine :(
BTW howz that AVC-R :D

[ramminghard]

^^^ how much did that sell for. I am looking to buy one right now and just wondering for comparision.

[James]

looks good man :thumbsup:.....gonna have to take me for a rip when its all done :burnout:.......damn i want another MR2 or an ae86! :D
