Earlier I featured the AE86 GT-Apex Digi Dash and obviously it raises many AE86 enthusiasts hearts. This time I’d like to feature the normal AE86 cluster versus the AE85 cluster.
If you ever owned an AE86 (or watched too much Initial D) this cluster should be quite familar: It is the standard JDM kouki AE86 cluster for RHD cars. Difference between the kouki and zenki cluster are the the white vertical lines and white needles that replaced the old orange needles. Difference between JDM and UKDM gauge cluster is the speedo that reaches 150mph (240km/h). Unfortunately I haven’t found a picture of that cluster yet…
Difference between JDM and continental EUDM gauge cluster is the mirrored layout and speedo that reaches 240 km/h. Read the rest of this entry →
This kyusha wheel collector seems to have found the best vintage bed imaginable! He seems to have a favor for the TRD Tusco and TOM’s Igeta design. Maybe they are softer than others?
Some time ago I posted a really nice Carina GT Coupe TA45 which I found at Japan Vintage. I also found a Carina GT-R Coupe AA63 on their website but never actually posted it…
Exhaust is not that special, but you can see from its bumper and taillights that it is the late type model. You could also have deducted that from the fact that it is an AA63!
I also uploaded the video that was on the advertisement:
Nice TRD sticker on the side, but most probably only the springs and shocks are TRD.

However there are some dashboard parts missing: Right speaker cover is missing, pedals and steering wheel have been swapped, an ugly foglight switch on the center console and an ashtray has been mounted on the drivers door… Not as immaculate as the interior of the TA45 coupe…
All in all a very nice looking car. Obviously this car has been tuned for street usage which left its marks on the car itself. The price is 4300 dollars which is way too much for a 24 year old 168000km car with powersteering and aircon.
