I assume its the one in the profile. Its sounds like its got some great hardware in it! You'll have trouble cause most people most prob wont like the airbrush work. If I could afford it and it was the later version of the twin cam, I'd be at your door step right now.
Good luck with sale.
p.s. this would be great first car for someone!

thanks guys i know its going to be hard with the airbrushing but thats the least of its troubles (bearing being the big one)
Spack-depending on how u wanted to fix it and what wrong exectly anywhere from $100 for the bearings to $1200 for another engine from an importer. and sorry not interested in trading to another corolla at the moment. ive got pland for another car with forced induction as standard equipment
Nico- yes it the one in my avatar but it has more of the bodykit now cos that photo is 3 years old now. what do you mean later version twincam? an AE92 or just the ones with the revised nose?
this car has been completeley overhauled suspension wise so it is actually much nicer to drive than a newer car
BTW: car has Rattler car alarm and imobaliser intsalled aswell

WOW theres a few AE82's popped up for sale all of a sudden.
also forgot to note the car has a Davies Craig Electric water pump aswell.
If i totalled up all i have spent on this car its easily over $5K not including the purchase of the car. so if anyone out there is willing to do a bit of work and save themselves some cash this car is for you
any interest?

i spun the bearing while testing it with a G-tech. so basically i was flogging the crap out of it needles to say i didnt get any decent figures out of it before it spun it
but was showing some awesome potential amid all the wheelspin .
ill be away for the next week so wont respond to any Q's till sunday week so if anyone wants to give this post a bump feel free
