56K NOOO!!!
A ton of photo's on every page.
So I've decided to stop being lazy and start writing my own build thread for my 1987 Gay Blue Hardtop. I picked this car up from my buddy with a clean title N/A, local previous owners, and being only the 5th owner. This car was an automatic that came with the 3.91 LSD stock. I also picked up a set of JDM power folding mirrors and a set of JDM bubble markers with the car. On top of an uber clean set of stock grey mats and an almost flawless grey interior, including new grey leather e-brake handle cover.
I'm going to be swapping almost everything from my 90 to this 87, including the 1JZ-GTE, R154, 1-piece aluminum DS, and 91-92 turbo black 5-spokes with Hankook K106 225/50-16 tires all around. I already have installed an ACT clutch kit rated at 405 HP/ Ft. lbs. torque, Brembo drilled and slotted rotors, a 935 Motorsports 3" catless exhaust system with Megan Racing GT muffler (that has a 5" tip), cold air intake, JIC Magic front lower strut bar, reverse glow guages with brushed aluminum bezel cover and new clear guage cover, and of course a battery relocation kit.
Here's the pics of my 87 as it sits now.
I didn't swap the other pair of 5-spokes today because I am going to unbolt the subframe, motor and tranny still attached, and roll it under the 87. When I do the subframe swap, the propper wheels will be with the appropriate car. Part of my interior is in my 87, the rest of my interior as at a friends house in his 87. This means that I have a bunch of interior parts just sitting in my car, unbolted and laying where ever.
I ordered a black and blue Greddy Full Auto turbo timer and harness this week, a Megan Racing rear strut bar. I'm working on trading my mint condition 89+ clear corners for a set of pre-89 clear corners, and my new flushmount headlights are on the way (only 1 of 2 in existance). John Lozado (the guy who made my flushmounts), is the other guy. When I'm ready, I will order 4 55W H7 projector lights to use, 2 per side.
I have a lot of work to do.

), I cleaned off the duct tape residue (after almost 2 years of owning the car, the duct tape residue came with the car), and I changed my spark plugs too. I feel as if I got a lot accomplished today.
