My new car, Hachi love.

Ghost of Duluth · 04-05-2007, 07:11 AM

So I sold the RB Z car and got into a Corolla. Just picked it up.

85 GTS
4AGZE Turbo
Megasquirt and SAFC
5 Defi gauges with playback/control unit.
Full suspension with camber plates, not sure what but at the time and what I paid, I wasn't asking too many questions.
New Longchamps
Full Vertex body kit
Kakimoto exhaust
New paint

The story is the guy that built it drove one while stationed in Japan, knew thats what he wanted and started stockpiling parts while he was there. The kit, wheels, gauges and other stuff was brought back by him. He built the car into what you see here and then got called into service. He let my brother know the car was for sale, named his price and I didn't hesitate and paid what he asked.

I'll pop engine shots up later, the intercooler piping is raunchy and the engine bay needs to be cleaned up but other than that the car is perfect. Interior is pretty much spotless. I'm stoked.

Oh little 8 pound 9 once baby Jesus. That's hotter than a clam bake.

Brian · 04-05-2007, 09:44 PM

Lower it about 6 inches and it will be cool.

Ghost of Duluth · 04-06-2007, 11:52 PM

Yea, and for $4500 bucks, it was a steal.

I love the East coast.

I've seen this car in person and six inches would put that cool *Censored**Censored**Censored* Vertex kit under ground.

Ghost of Duluth · 04-10-2007, 05:35 AM

He is slammed, hard to get in touch with him. I'm usually around if you need something relayed to him or whatever. Supposed to get put the new pump in today and hopefully have it ready for you guys event.

Lol, I live in GA, we don't have the luxury of all the smooth flat surfaces that you guys do in Cali. The car is hardly 10 feet off the ground, but whatever floats your boat man. Now when I go to events, i'll drop it down but tearing off my front ground effects on a trip to get some beer is hardly a fun time.

YEAH RIGHT! If you're lucky enough to even find one! I've seen only two of them, one a GTS and an SR5. And it seems like all the ones on ebay tend be centralized in Florida for some reason. The only time I saw a decent one was at Formula D in Atlanta. So maybe GA is the new secret to finding hachi-roku's eh? Hell I wouldve easily given him 5 or 6k for that car. (hint hint)
