Cool nice to hear ill have some followers.
So I have a question Im looking at this oil cooler and it says the fittings are AN 6 to AN10 Fitting i dont understand what that means and i dont know what my car is. Engine came with a oil cooler adapter so all i need to do is just pug in a oil cooler and lines.
Also looked at the engine yesterday and its a FWD engine but it will still work I just need to mod the intake mani and buy a header.

SR-5? He pulled an Itsuki and got an AE85 lol, carb engine and rear drum brakes. You def got a project there, may you enjoy it, I'm a bit jealous as I haven't found a decent one without a taxed up price.

Yeah its pretty hard to find a GTS not all rusted so a lot of people are doing SR5 to GTS swaps. I got the car for $400.00 Plus a 4age block with head it just needs to be rebuild trying to sell that one off. I just want to get it moving on the road and do some burnouts ill worry about all of the lil stuff later like that rear end and suspension to make it sure GTS.

Fuel pump Assembly and pump but mostly the assembly GTS fuel tank if you have it.
GTS Throttle Cable
GTS Master Slave Cylinder.

Okay guys i found most of the parts i need going to be ordering this weekend.
Im also going to try and drop in the engine this weekend also.
Im going to relocate the slave cylinder lines to the other side of the car clean and paint the engine bay black today before it gets dark. I only have a couple of hours of sunlight to work on it so i guess we will see how much i accomplish today.

Okay so its a lot of work painting the engine bay. I got it all cleaned up and sanded and painted half before it got super windy so i stopped going to finished painting today.
Got the fuel pump for a good price a NAPA. This is what i came up with. Going to wire maybe today or tomorrow and see how it works.

Why does everyone say its not an 86????????????
The firewall on the VIN the first thing it says is AE86!
Im going to take a picture and show you. I cant find anything on the car that says its an 85 WTF? There is 3 places on the car that say 86 so im pretty sure thats what it is.
Any ways i got the engine bolted up to the bell housing and gear box going to try and drop in tonight and block it up. Some how i lost an engine mount and have to order one
Thanks for all the followers and support Im going to try and have the car running before the 24th this month. There is a drift even i want to get on the road and drive already.

Well in the US market they kept the chassis code AE86 across all the models, in Japan the models were differentiated along with the AE86 and AE85 chassis codes, which is why I said AE85 when you noted it was an SR5. Yes the plate on the firewall says AE86 in your pic, so you've been spared by whatever reason Toyota decided to just use one chassis code across all models stateside lol(I say laziness lol).
