- The Corolla FX16 GT-S is getting closer to being the ultimate touge monster it deserves to be! I also take the AE82 steering rack to Techno Toy Tuning to be fitted for custom tie-rod ends. Plus, I find out how bad the door hinges were and how I fixed them.

Door pin kit: Dorman 38688
Fender Braces: Ultra Racing UR-FD3-114
Lower Control Arm Brace: Ultra Racing UR-LA4-1191
The new steering rack is from a ZZE-110 with a steering pinion from a JDM MR-S transplanted into it. (KOYO rack) It seems to shares the same width as the AE82 steering rack so the factory tie-rods should bolt right on. But keep an eye out as Techno Toy Tuning might stock upgraded tie-rods!

I truly love seeing this car and platform given the love it deserves.
The part you're all looking for starts at 10:19
I love the "90s" chill Vibe of your videos
Another great video and inspiration to keep restoring 'near classic' Japanese cars. I wanted a AE82 FXGT or AE111 BZR.. but found a DC2R for a crazy low price and currently fixing up all the small little bits like yourself. Thanks!
BZ-Rs are amazing cars
How TF did you even find a DC2 Type R for a low price?
When I see a new video I go prepare a coffee and watch!
Always want to mod my steering into quick steering
Although I drive a Toyota xenia or known as avanza in Malaysia
You and your partner certainly appreciate cats. Those car seats made me smile.
Those neck pillows are photorealistic so they end up looking like two cats are sitting in the car. Thanks for the comment!
Dude - wtf I didn't get any notification from you for almost a year. Had to look you up manually - glad I have three videos to watch!
Thanks for looking it up! TH-cam algo’s are a little funky sometimes. But it also might be because I haven’t posted anything new in a few months. There will be some new content in the next few weeks.
I've been watching your channel for years. Always come back for your unique content. From the days of your touge battles with your friend's Civic to your recent ECU and COP upgrades. There's not much AE82 content out there and yours is topnotch. It's such a shame most of the FX16s have met their demise and they're so overshadowed by the AE86.
Thank you for being a long time watcher! Hopefully my videos have saved some AE82’s from the scrapyard.
No matter how much we love them they don't stop needing work
One thing leads to another. The never ending project, lol.
One of the best youtube channels by far.
Would be so cool to visit techno toy tuning
A lot of cool dudes working their and the parking lot has some sweet cars as well.
Rust removal looks so satisfying. Not the process itself but the end result
The process is such a drag. But you're totally right, the result is very satisfying.
Just the way you do things inspire me so much. I mean if I were to install some epic suspension mods and found the door hinges to be shitty I'd have never started working on those :). This type of dedication to detail and passion for your car is just awesome.
This dedication means projects take longer. This latest stint of upgrades and fixes should make the Corolla so much nicer to drive!
@@sushpants all projects take longer, c’est la vie :) the most important imho is to keep at it, then once it is driveable we forget all the hassles and could get into fine tuning.
Hey Sushpants, I can see that you have unending love for that car.....RESPECT
I own an 88 fx recently found those side braces and now I'm in love with ur channel and cant wait to see more and more
Always looking forward to these thank you very much
OMG I miss my AE82 FX soooooooo much!! Really wish I hadn't sold it.
They’ve become really hard to find. There’s hardly any good ones left.
@@sushpants Yeah a buddy of mine found one with some body damage and some missing engine parts for sale. I was tempted but I had just bought a ST184 Celica for Rallyx and didn’t have the room for another project car.
Love that makeshift torque wrench with the vise grips + force gauge. That's a good trick.
I got it from thetrick4fun on youtube. He has a really good steering rack rebuild video. I even bought the same kind of scale as his :D
Awesome video
These are awesome continue the good work
Great car ! I made fender braces for my starlet EP71 too.
Local!! So fun knowing I might run into you at an event before I move.
Awesome to see T3 too!
Great work you doing and enjoy video
It's funny that you put this video out when you did, because I just got some seat rails for my AW11 from them in the mail today! 🤣
Very nice!
Nice upgrades! Glad to see Leo is dong well :)
He’s feeling fat and sassy!
Hey i hope your going well man, miss the fx16 content alot, my 91 fx is currently on axle stands haha cant wait to be out driving again
nice.
eagerly waiting for the final outcome, especially ultra racing bars,
please mention the products which you use after removing the rust
primarily rust remover, protection and paint
7:26 Hey little buddy!
excellent video. please show more cat
Yay, another FX upgrade
This car will be a beast 😂
Must be nice living in such a climate where just putting on some paint haphazardly is good enough :)
Honestly, the rust wasn't even that bad. If something rusts out here, it does so at a slow rate. It's pretty shocking to visit places that salt their road and seeing half the cars driving around with huge holes in them. Thanks for the comment!
If my FX wasn’t as original as it was, I’d be dropping a BZ-R 6-speed/blacktop combo like your GT-S has. My FX feels too original to take apart, and the single cam is in really good condition, as in it shocked me how responsive it is.
Nice vid man, seeing you struggle and win with the bolt was inspiring.
There was a lot of cursing that didn’t make it into the video :) That bolt was impossible with out making a little room for it.
@@sushpants
TheSkidFactory had a nice tip about getting hard to reach bolts in.

Epic
Tonyy isss thheee bboooossssssssss
Here is to wishing they make the combo available for other fx owners. Cause I need a set. Also some control arms would be cool. lol
Круто бачити що заїхав до Т3, вони ж ніби каліфорнійські хлопаки, а поради стосовно створення нових штук для ФХ16 то також буде корисно, бо фанбаза на ФХ також досить велика)
Hey dude love to binge your vids, miss driving my GT so bad 😢 would be awesome to pick your brains sometime if you free for a million and one questions
Good video! Where can i get the sway bar links?
10:12 Initial D AE86 Trueno GT-Apex.
please make the parts available T3 i need those tie rod ends for my ae82 in Aus
great mod, so if i understand correctly... you changed only the pinion and not the rack also? i wonder if this will work on the ae92 rack?
What made you make the quick steer rack with a ae101 rack as opposed to an ae82 or ae92 steering rack? Thanks in advance.
Fender braces made a nice difference on my Miata.
I hope I’ll have the same experience with the Corolla.
blew my mind on the steering rack mod, will you try EPS? I also think of it many times, may or may not do in my e8 corolla
I saw some people doing the Saturn EPS on some of the newer Corolla platforms and it seems pretty cool. In my case, I wanted to keep it hydraulic.
Pet that cat.
1st comment and a faithful viewer. You’re channel aspires giving old cool cars new life! Would you consider running it against my Subaru Impreza Wagon ( gf 4 ) ?
Quality content. But Leo was def the star of the show.
Hey question can those ultra bars fit on a ae100 wagon
Sorry to comment on a old video but do you think that door pin kit will work for a ae92?
8:00 Do you have consider tube threaded insert instead of this painful installation ? I think it work just fine for this kind of application. BTW, nice channel !
Sir, will that same steering modification you made, will it also work with a 1989 Corolla AE92?
Can you please share the link where to buy parts for the AE 82 corolla
That’s great! 1st like to video, 2nd comment and definitely a long time viewer. Each video further pushes the envelop of bringing back old cool cars with a new lease on life. I know it’s not altogether initial d but would you consider running it to my Subaru Impreza Wagon ?( classic Impreza gf body similar to gf8 sti wagon ) I need a good reference point and I feel that the fx16 is suitable considering that I can’t find an ae86 owner to run it up against. To me these cars for their time are the benchmark.
Thanks for being a long time viewer! The old cars are making a come back and for good reason, new cars have become stoic to drive. Have you done anything cool to your Impreza Wagon?
@@sushpants I’ve brought it back close to stock. When I had 1st got it, it was in pretty rough shape and it took everything to get it where it is now. I got raceland coilovers but plan on swapping it out for something idea and of better build quality. It’s non turbo and it’s still fun to drive. That being said, I’m looking to maximize it’s potential in every way possible while being able to still daily it without messing with power directly.
I know you're already done, but I would recommend a riv-nut next time you're working in a tricky area like that.
I considered the rivnut option but preferred using a bolt with a washer to give the brace the best chance to work. I was pretty close to abandoning that preference after monkeying around with it for 2 hours :)
@@sushpants I definitely understand that. Either way, keep up the great content.
Man uou shd make vedio alone to all ultra racing bars u attached and their impact on the corolla
Hi does those braces wrk on a ae100 wagon
damn you live in sonoma county !!
what paint did you use?
You live in Sacramento? I’m in San Jose with an 1985 Toyota Celica Supra daily driver!
Not in Sacramento, but not to far away. Celtics Supra’s are awesome!
And remember, stay stiff 👍
Should have used rivet nuts inserts for the brace
I seriously debated going rivet vs bolt. I ended up going with the bolt option with a big washer because it was going to be stronger than a rivet. I really didn’t want a rivet to pop out from a big pot hole. Thanks for the comment!
I was thinking the same, a rivnut would have been much easier. But using a bolt and large washer combo provides a lot more surface area for sure.
btw do you think i can Add ITBs on a 2zz?
I’m sure you could, but a 2zz flows pretty well through its intake manifold already. I think an intake and tune would make a bigger difference. Especially if you flash a tune which engages lift sooner.
@@sushpants yes. you definitely know your stuff.
I’m just going to run stock ecu until I get my trans rebuilt. The Notorious 3rd gear synchro is starting to go out on my C60...by chance do you know any reputable places around sonoma county / Bay Area for trans rebuilds 🤔 (I live in Santa Rosa)
You could have just welded in the fender brace..
How much so far have u spent in this 40 years old car
Modding any car is a terrible investment. This car makes me happy and that’s what I value most. *34 years old
1. I love your car 2. HOW'S THE NAME OF THAT STICK WITH THE HAND OF MICKEY MOUSE??? I NEED IT!!!
All angle performance building a k24 turbo fx16 ae82 on there TH-cam channel
I know, I’ve been watching! That thing is going to be wild.

The Australian accent sounds more pleasant!
@@sushpants Well, OBVIOUSLY. :D
