My little (not really...) The 4AGE 20V part has started!!!

PROJECT part one:

- All rust removed (it has quite a bit Sad

)
- New panels (all four)
- New doors (might be able to fix them)
- A fresh layer of paint (Color: TBD)
- New bushings which completes the suspension (for now that is...)
- Install newer 4AGE (~170 kkm, now: ~344 kkm)

PROJECT part two:

- New more powerfull engine (4AGE 20V or 4AGTE)
- New gearbox (type depends on the engine)
- Perhaps new rear (depends on the engine)

Some of the project has been discussed in this tread: http://www.aeu86.org/viewtopic.php?p=262#262

As it looks now:

Ive started to gather some parts for my 86 project Smile

Some days ago i got these in the mail:

Today I went to my local toyota dealer to pick up two brand new rear quater panels Cheerleader

Here is one of them:

The other lies underneath... Ill take a better picture later Smile

They are both zenki panels as I could only get a hold of a left kouki panel... The front panels are going to be zenki as well. I dont know if I would have gone for the kouki if it where possible as I think zenki panels gives it a cleaner look eventhough its not the original look...

Sorry, but can someone show me the pic of the arches ? I cannot understand what are "arches" ? This is not a fender, but only the border part of the fender ? If yes - my friend uses VW Golf 1 ones and they make the car wider by ~3" total. I buyed and plan to use Golf 2 2-door ones - these will make the car wider ~1 1/2" total. Mine two rear arches cost ~25 EU.

Yes a arch is only the last couple of cm of the fender. Ive heard that arches from Golf can be used, but they doesnt fit as well as the ones from Starlet. So if you want the car to appear stock, its the Starlet arches you want. And if you want a wider body (and hell of alot more work) it Golf arches you should use.
