![[SHORT FILM] TOYOTA COROLLA GT-S AE86](/img/n.gif)
Man! This was my very first car back in 2002 after my late dad owned one brand new from 1984. As a kid I was so in love with this car that I knew I had to buy a similar one as my very first car. Now that my dad passed away 4 years ago I want to get one and restored it as a tribute to him. Oh and while watching this video I cried like a baby... Miss you dad!
shout out to jorges dad! we all know hes rippin his 86 up there missin you!
@@yuhz8954 Man! This comment brought tears of joy. One day I will find one of these and named it after him.
@@boricuadude26 sounds like an awesome tribute brotha!
This car looks sick, I want a SR5 because there the cheapest ones
True
This was the first car I ever wrecked when I was 14! Mom was getting a new car and neither of us knew what it was. That it was such a rare rwd beauty
Holy crap it’s so clean! I’d love to see more 👍
I keep coming back to these videos because Im in the same position as you but your more steps ahead of me, barely getting a hold of manual transmission going to be doing a swap in the summer since my 86 is a daily
Very nice transformation! A couple of months ago I picked up an AE86 in identical color/options to yours as a project. I'm really liking your choices for the body kit/lip/wing; it's very tasteful; just the look I want for mine when it's back on the road. :)
I remember your z32 vid from back in the day, your mods are always tasteful.
What a nice corolla, i just love the 80s/90s toyotas those are bulletproof with manual even automatics are bulletproof they can run forever,just take care of em
nice! can’t wait to see what’s next!
Great video. Looks amazing
Very nice! I was extremely fortunate to get an excellent condition Zenki AE86 (which I think is much rarer in the US as they only started importing them in '86 IIRC). She needs some work but is generally very clean except for some rust on the side panels, a little bit in the door well and a bit in the trunk but nothing aggressive.
Bro how is your channel not blowing up...you got some dope content...you got my sub
Dawg I'm 16 and just found one thats identical to the version you bought, automatic, mold growing on the paint, SR5, but the dude selling it has got everything needed for a manual swap in the back seats of the car.
Cool video digging the music and the white whale of a find
I agree with you choice to keep the original color. I think the panda paint scheme is cool but everyone has it.
Awesome story! I have a very similar story with how I picked up my 1984 Celica. This makes me want to put out some videos of my own! The thing is that it takes twice as long to perform whichever action I'm doing with my car as I film, so it'd be nice to have a dedicated cameraman
Slow Car Salon Yeah it will take at least twice as long to finish whatever you're working on and then you have to do all of the video editing after that. Definitely slows things down
what a gem
I had two of these in high school. I absolutely loved this car! They were both super reliable and fun to drive! Easy to work on, cheap to fix, and awesome on gas. Both of mine unfortunately were wrecked by idiot drivers. It didn’t take a hit well unfortunately so easily totaled and finding body parts was practically impossible in 2006
You sound like Elliot Smith and your car is amazing
Beautiful
CLEAN!!!
That is an amazing car you have there, sir.
Thank you
@@MemoryLaneGarage I'm looking for one myself, where's the best place to get them? I would prefer the GT-S model, but it'd still be nice if it was the SR5.
I wish I knew. Depending on where you live Craigslist may have a couple. There’s really just not many left and most of the people that have nice ones aren’t going to sell them
@@MemoryLaneGarage It's a bit of a shame, but they're great cars and their owners should be happy with them.
goddamn that car is clean!
Well done
I hope you still have this beauty. Tell me more about the wheel and tire setup, looks simple and effective.
Sick
Love the car hate those new rims. The last generation was my favorite though
Then swap it with watanabe rims
Gd job brother
Remember me when you hit a million subscribers :)
Wow that's a nice one..my story is very much similar to urs🙂 I saw the same but it was a trueno lisse and it was in its original red factory colour and mine has the 3A carburator engine... and done only 47000km 5speed manual. Do keep ur videos coming😙
ghalibabubaker88 Abubaker Very cool! Do you know how many Trueno Lissés were made? I've only seen pictures of a couple of them so I'm sure they are pretty rare.
Hey bro, well not sure myself and yes they seem very rare as there is a other Utube channel called wasabi cars he does videos of classic cars in Japan and he mentioned he has never seen one in Japan but he mentioned that they wer but they kinda went extinct 😁 mine has done only 46000km everything original including interior would u like to see pics?
Hehe in between 46 & 47000km😄
Sounds cool! Isn't the Trueno Lisse the luxury version of the 3A-U equipped Truenos? Amazing though!
@@ghalibabubaker88abubaker87 The Trueno GT-APEX Black Limited was a 400 unit "finish off" for the RWD Corollas and Sprinters, and that was limited to 400 units.
Where were you able to source the trunk decals? All I see are the ones for JDM, I'm trying to fine Kouki decals (with the dots in the letters) like you have. Great find!
Just love it! Same as mine! But tell me, what lip is that? Trueno kouki? And the bumper is the gts or sr5 version?
Great find! I like your style. ;-)
Hey man, I am looking to manual swap mine as well and keep the 4ac. You said you got all the parts you needed together to do the swap, do you mind sharing that list?
Nice, i just happen to inherit a Sport DX AE86 damn similar to yours, only that the paint job is black with red stripes, plan on doing something similar, pretty nice though!
@Andre Arce Sorry but i don't plan on selling it
Japanice cars are the best. Since 80s japanese engines are the best because their metallurgy technology is the best which allowed them to build high revving, long stroke engines even back then in 80s. And even to this day their engines, typically, have longer stroke, which can only be achieved by using better materials for the crankshaft. And result - God like smoothness & better reliability, cos of thicker and tougher cylinder block and better heat dissipation, cos of higher block. Also in the 90 the perfected the use of electronics electronics in engines transmissions and awd systems.
The car exists.. thats what matters.
Are those 13 in or 14 in wheels? really nice, just got a zenki like yours i am following the same route
You got good taste
Melc Zelaya These are 13s
10/10
Not a big fan of the SR5 rear bumpers but it makes it unique from the GT APEX model.
So nice!! What parts exactly did u get to swap your tranny n all? I have a 86 I wanna swap to manual but don’t know where to start
Is that paint code 8C7? Looks amazing!
I just subcribed to your Channel right now bud but what exactly you should definitely do is install a 4sgze engine from Japan bud because that would be awesome bud
This is the car Kristen Wig was driving in Bridesmaid, Same make / model , color was bordeaux
My babysitter had one with a stick shift, she misses it. She bought it for $650 back in 2003. I remember her hotrodding the hell out of it, it needed a new exhaust system.
Had one of these with factory moon roof
It was A FREE car not sure of the year
The front bumper was all plastic and on the ground
Cost me 35 bucks to have it towed home
Drove it till I rotted out
AE86 LIFE
Nice! Did you paint it yourself? How much did the paint job cost?
Wow.. I had a "86" . Mine was red. My ex had an accident with her. They couldn't repair her. I'm looking for another one to purchase but having trouble finding one for sale.
Where did you buy your front lip? 👌🏻
May I ask what lip is that? Been looking for one
What did you do to restore the bumbers Back to Black. 🎸
glad you ddint treat it like shit even thought it vaguely looks like shit great build hope I can drive soon have fun
Hey. I love the usdm front bumper with that lip. Do you mind tell me where can I get a lip like that please ! Love your videos !
Ta Kumi The front lip was made by a company called Retro-spec. It will fit zenki and kouki SR5 bumpers. It's a direct bolt on part, no modifications required other than you will have to paint it
Chase Smotherman Did you have to drill holes? I did for mine.
Zenki Trueno No, it came predrilled with holes that lined up with the factory bumper bracket bolts on my car
Chase Smotherman :| mine didn’t, might have to talk to Paul from RetroSpec
Shinji's AE86 coupe
I used to have this car in silver loved, would have kept it till today until wife crashed it 😭
Hey! Im inthe same boat as you are in. Bought the same car and havent done much to it except wheels and minor exterior installs. Mine is an automatic as well. Quick question though, do i need the manual driveshaft or will the automatic stock driveshaft work in order for me to convert from auto to manual?
Hmong American Life You will need a manual driveshaft
Chase Smotherman thanks man! Keep up with the videos. You’ve inspired me to keep mine stock w/ minor upgrades.
What lip is that i built my own from another lip video sooN!
Where did you source your aero from?
Hi, so i found one a 1998 sr5. The guy is asking $3500. The car needs breaks, new head gasket and the oil pan/gasket need to be replaced. I was able to talk him down to 3000, is it worth it?
Where did u get the bumper and side skirts
How difficult was the manual swap? Did you have to take the dashboard off? What did it cost you?
It was not very difficult. You don’t have to remove the dash, just the center console. Finding all of the parts was more difficult than the actual swap. As for cost, I have no idea. I would guess somewhere in the ballpark of $500 total to do a nice swap but it really just depends on the price of the parts you are able to find.
@@MemoryLaneGarage sounds good to me!
Where did you find the clutch pedal & other parts ?
There’s not really one place in particular, it just took months of continuous searching and collecting all the parts one piece at a time wherever I could find them.
Are you going to put a 4A-GE in it?
Doriftomaster My goal is to put a blacktop 20 valve 4ag in it but I’d like to put a gts rear end in it first. However, after two years of searching for a complete gts rear end anywhere remotely close to where I live I still haven’t found one. Lol
Hi I am close to purchasing a 85 SR5 it’s also automatic, so I was wondering what we’re all the things you had to do in order to convert it to manual? If I had to be honest this will be my first time doing anything like this but my grandfather, step dad, and father-in-law all have the tools and experience to do this. I really want to do most of it myself without there help lol but I’m lost and would like your input on this. I would greatly appreciate any help thanks.
You will need complete transmission, flywheel, complete clutch kit, clutch pedal and manual brake pedal, manual driveshaft, clutch master and slave cylinders and the lines between them, interior trim around shifter, brake fluid, and transmission gear oil. I’m probably forgetting something but that’s the bulk of it.
Chase Smotherman thanks man! What was the cost roughly. Sorry to keep bothering you I’m just really excited.
It’s impossible to say. Some of these parts can be extremely difficult to find depending where you live. You might get lucky and find everything you need for cheap but it’s kind of a deal of you just have to pay whatever somebody is asking for it when you find it.
Chase Smotherman yea I figured but what would you estimate l? Sorry for being a bother last question.
what song is it
what lip is that?!
Isnt the SR5 an ae88, since it doesnt only say ae86 on the reg but rather also says ae88?
No, the SR5 doesn’t say AE88 anywhere on it, only AE86. The GTS model is the one that has both AE86 and AE88 on it
Chase Smotherman do you plan on changing the bumpers to the jdm bumpers?
No
Where could i find that front lip?
Did you find out?
Does anyone know the soundtrack?
All around these cars look amazing but the taillight design just don't do it for me. Everything else and the shape of the car is awesome
Nice is originally
Imagine finding a 4age engine and replacing it
My grandma had this car in red... until I bought it 😈
Yo tengo.uno.86.
What engine came in the car ?
4AC
@@MemoryLaneGarage Tough little engine .
I've got the same engine in my 1983 AE71 Corlla Wagon .
Congratulations on your build .
Is the 86 is rare ?
Kind of
The SR5 is more abundant than the GT-S in North America. GT-S has the 4A-GE(C) (1.6L Twin Cam EFI) SR5 has the 4A-(L)C (1.6L Single Cam Carburated). The JDM ones are the AE85 (1.5L 3A-(L)U) and the AE86 (1.6L Twin Cam 4A-GE(U))
Nice bro got saint car manual than one look new bro nice tray see whatt happens my reverse no work church fuses it ok friend tell me need change the reverse switch can fine it the tramicion you no got any links can check it let me know please thank you video
Bro
I got
Some suggestions
First you gotta change the
Back to the original ae86
And then you gotta paint it black
And white like takumi’s from
Initial D
Is it RWD or FWD.
RWD, 1987 was actually the last year of rear wheel drive Corollas
the AE86. ever heard of it?
(SR5 AE86, GTS AE88)
Look goog got my saying year got it for 12 year still runing like new love old school car iam us see it want noted $6000 dollar for it
Paint it white, put japaniese gibberish on the side & start deliverlin tofu!
ae88
Elykus first, It’s a SR5, so it’s not 4AGE powered, instead 4AC, thus not a GTS. Second, if you want to refer a 4AG powered 86, please use the term Corolla GTS, since the “ae88” code was only used on the VIN, and the serial number says ae86, meaning it a ae86.
Elykus this is a good video by progression D stating the reasons of why it’s a ae86. czcams.com/video/F6s9l6a_f5Y/video.html
Hold up that's not an 86
Call it what you wish. There’s a lot of misinformation spread by uninformed people on the internet, but the fact of the matter is that the VIN and model code stamped on this car both say AE86 (like all other 1984-1987 USDM SR5 Corolla Sport models).
Chase Smotherman though it looks like an 85
The AE85 was never offered in the US. It had a different engine (AE85 has a 1.5L 3AU engine, SR5 AE86 has a 1.6L 4AC engine). The AE85 also had less factory chassis bracing and a cable operated clutch among other differences.
Chase Smotherman huh, makes more sense now.
@@fordgalaxie3695 the 86 also has pop up headlights the 85 does not, they are in the grill.
It’s not an ae86
Yes it is. Stop the nonsense.
The narrator.....😪😴😴😴😴
Who tf would leave this car sitting for years? What a sob
