    well today i went engine shopping for my truck.. just a 22r.. but drove an hour to get one and i get there and its in a million pieces !!! so i was like man i dont want this pile, i dont know whats missing or there... so i went home.. passed my cousins house and saw a yota in his driveway..same place its been for a few months lol so I stopped and said hey i got 300 let me get that and he agreed so i drove it home and let my friend take the titan... tomorrow im taking the engine out of it and putting it in my 89. anyways does anyone wanna buy a rolling 86 ?? reallly cheap lol either that or im scrapping her...

    also do any 86's come factory with well..idk what its called but the lsd or posi? that makes both wheels spin ? im taking that out as well since both wheels light up...

    funny thing i noticed was the key comes out of the ignition with it on and you can start it with anything that fits in the hole !

    pics will be here tomorrow.

    ill try and be back more, ive been really busy these past few months, I actually have a job now so I can stop taking freebies from my mom which is hurting her, and Ive been busy at the gym for hours a day trying to bulk up but mainly get lean and healthy. but now that im getting my truck running again I probably wont mod it any more other then, darker tint, new corner lights and head lights (mine cracked), systems.. I FINALLY picked up my fiberglass interior ! the guy lost my number and didnt remember what color to paint it so he just gave me a chrome front bumper and euro tail lights for free which are for sale by the way.I will have it painted soon and pics too.


    well you have my myspace Im always on there ! lol.

    actually im keeping the titan but I will drive the yota 90% of the time. I put on about 1500 miles a month on it and its expensive, already killed the tires on my 22''s, need new brakes, and shocks soon so I will be saving up for those things while I drive the yota


    idk what the question is but its not turbo and im trying to keep the motor stock and fuel economic.. I still check tampa forums every few days for those rims for ya.



    Also I already sold the 86, took the motor out and sold the rest for 100 bucks no title yesterday, and sold my old engine for 200 just now so I got all my money back but its all going into it again with tag, and small parts i need to get her running.. I have one pic of it though.

    as for the swap, I have everything I need but the throttle cable, can anyone help me out with that ? it only took us about 2 hours to have the engine out of the truck and on the mounts of my truck. Thats as far as i got because it got dark and I did not have time to work on it yesterday but maybe today or tomorrow I will have it done.

    and by the way, the dude under the truck is my best friend Gilbert, hes my master mechanic and whenever I need him hes got me.
