Hi From Coquitlam

[PandaHatch]

Hi everyone my name is Alex I'm from Coquitlam and I've been lurking here for a while and thought it was finally time to post. I've always liked older Toyotas and ever since high school I've always wanted an AE86. I currently have an 84' SR5 that's been GTS swapped. This is my first AE86 and I love it! This is my project car and I've been fixing it up and modding it overtime and can't wait to build it into an awesome car.

Here it is when I got it:



And here it is now:



Thanks for reading and I'm looking forward to learning new things and being a part of the community!

Hey, and welcome you got a sweet looking AE, And while your reading this may I ask how you have wired up the front bumper lights and how you have them working. Cheers

There's a few ways you can do it.

The most common way to do it is to just clip off the connectors from the USDM signals and solder them onto the JDM ones.

Alternatively you can try sourcing the correct connectors that fit into the JDM signals and soldering them onto the chassis harness. Most 80's and 90's Toyotas use them in the cigarette lighter plug. I'm pretty sure I got mine out of an X7 Cressida.

Thanks I appreciate it! And sorry I'm not 100% sure how the bumper lights were wired up because I bought the car with them already installed and working. But I took a look at the wiring and it looks like the USDM connectors were cut and soldered onto the JDM ones like Brandon said.

Yeah I've been reading non stop about it, and the only thing I can find is from 2008 to 2011 is AKJ with the relays on the turn single wiring just don't understand how it works really, To have the white side ones/ Clearances lights work as you single.
