Speedcore ... Bill Sherwood has described them on his site as having a thermostat of some sort to monitor the temp however, I can just say that with the brackets I have, there are 2 smaller hose tubes that connect to the radiator hose as far as I can see that then connect to an iron bracket with a spring mechanism to open the grill itself. I'll have to take pics and show you. As I said, I've yet to witness the grill open on its own accord however once you hook this grill up, you can't change it for a normal one unless you change the radiator hose as well. I've asked people on Club4AG on how these operate and whether I've hooked it up correctly but NO ONE has one to be able to help. When I get around to it, I'll also pass you some Initial D episodes on tape or something so you can see what all this craze about the 86 is about. Least I can do in return ... btw, I dropped off your spoiler with Ken today so make sure you push him for a discount or something in return. Widowmaker, the grill does fit in place of the stock australian grill so you don't need to get JDM Levin Headlights BUT the existing brackets have to be cut to fit it in as well as mounting the brackets + joining it up to your radiator hose. As for selling it, Fergo's already put $500 as a price. I'm not parting with mine but I can tell you that these grills are so rare they are almost non-existant. Many are probably ditched as they seem to impede airflow and in my life, I have only seem these on 1 or 2 AE86's in Japan out of all the myriad of pics you find on the net. Also, chances are if you find one for sale, it won't come with the hose brackets to connect them up. I believe that Fergo's one might be the 2nd one that Toby Hunt (Aka T on these forums) had sold. If so, I doubt if Fergo's got the existing connecting hose pipe as T only had one available however I believe you can make one up. Good luck finding one but I doubt your chances though. No harm asking T though ... [Report message to a moderator]
