Time For Saving Methinks **PICS NOW ADDED**

[VTRelite]

Story goes my mate at the garage has acquired a Corolla GT DOHC 1588cc 16v 122BHP (poon a VTS :p) and he is restoring it and is mine for £1500 when he is done. Is group 12 insurance but is cheaper than my VTR. Good times

EDIT: 7700rpm Redline - Yeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh Booooooooooiiiiiiiiii

EDIT: it's not an 86 it's the FWD hatchback with the 4AGE Toyota engine in (same as mk1 mr2 and the 86 fyi)

[JCs_VTR]

A Corolla GT doesn't have VTEC as its not a Honda.

To the OP- nice little ride, very rare they are nowadays.

[MiniGibbo]

ae86's are imence if its a gooden thats a steal theyre worth 4-7 depending on spec and detail.

Why do i listen to every vtec video as well just makes me want one :( even though there taurqless noisy sheds ;)

Engine is a minter for 140k however the 4AGE engine is one of the few engines renowned for being bulletproof and being a mechanic will get regular maintenance and heard it start today couple of squeaks and rattles but nothing major and the T-VIS (Toyota Variable Induction System) sounds NUTS. Basically just needs a couple of bits painting and paint restoration and wheel refurb

"this will decimate all, after you put around 10 grand in it or more, if we have to overnight parts from japan" ;)

Will like to see this finished :y:

[LeeM]

not a fan, looks like an old shed

[Ashleyp]

nice project on your hands.. body work looks like it can be sorted with a little hard work and cash, deffo looks salvageable

what kind of conditions the engine in?

[Paul]

Also not a fan.

You wont be pulling any pussy in that mate :n:

[Chin]

I quite like that mate :y:

oldskool ftw tbh, slammed in orange with dished black rims woop.

[JamesR]

Respray, and tidy the body work up, nice set of alloys, lowered, few bits done to the engine and interior etc will be a scorcher ;)

[VTRelite]

Also not a fan.

not for pulling pussy my friend

if you hear one you will understand especially with the T-VIS

nice project on your hands.. body work looks like it can be sorted with a little hard work and cash, deffo looks salvageable

what kind of conditions the engine in?

a little? quite a lot me thinks and the engine is mint had a problem with starting due to fuel system but started straight up after and then had a little play in it and just had to take off the induction piping onto bare throttle body was niiiiiiice

[BenjaM]

Gash! As said it looks like an abondoned shed.

[Robin91]

Yeahh right not looks like a shed tbh, but with a bit of TLC could look 'alright'. And like other Jap Hatches (Pulsar, Glanza), they may not look great, but they go and sound laaavely.

[JoshB]

AE86, or non at all. Its the only one you can get away with.

Otherwise its just a 'Toyota Corolla innit'

[mike_gally]

Also not a fan.

[Tony]

[LeeM]

[VTRelite]

AE86, or non at all. Its the only one you can get away with.

mmmmmmm not really i would like to see a standard vts stay with a standard one of these

remember rust is lighter than carbon fibre

[goodall3518]

its disgusting.

and if it was on Top Gear... it wouldnt be cool. Cool wall ftw.

As long as its fast thats fine, but u look like ur a pikey driving it ftl

[VTRelite]

each to their own i suppose

love it or hate it

i love it

[goodall3518]

its a marmite car ftw

[VTRelite]

if you heard it you would change your mind :p
