RE: Matching locks...
It would require a locksmith to disassemble the barrel, swap the pins and reassemble the barrel again. If you already have the ignition lock, he/she has to do this three times to make a set of four equal locks. This probably costs you quite a lot of money in labor.
I think it would be far cheaper to source a set of matching keys and locks from Japan. You can find a set for somewhere between 150 and 200 dollars. Including handling and shipping you probably pay about 300 dollars.
Here are two auctions I found:
Complete set with two keys
Complete set with one key

If you need to search additional AE86 key cylinders, this is the phrase that I used: ae86キーシリンダー
Probably a set for any Toyota from the same era will fit.

1983 - AE86 Sprinter Trueno - import project
2013 - Honda Civic sport - daily driver
2004 - AEU86 dot ORG - daily domain
