AE86 Project | Shaving The Engine Bay? Toyota Corolla AE86 4AGE 16v Swap - AE86 Trueno Coupe

In today's AE86 trueno coupe project update video, we start the process of shaving the engine bay. We are shooting for the jdm project car AE86 s found in japan. The shaved bay is going to look perfect with a 4age 16v from a 1991 Toyota trueno coupe ae92. Future videos will outline the whole process on how to shave a engine bay / tucked engine bay .We also battle an insanely stuck tie rod end. I show you how to remove a stuck tie rod and go over the process I resorted to when it wouldn't free up. What a nightmare!
We also touch base on the 4age engine swap for the ae86 trueno coupe . I am going to be swapping a 4age 16v and also doing something a little special with it to make the ae86 build a little more unique. The toyota corolla ae86 4age project is well underway and I cannot wait to get the 4age 16v in! Save the 4age 16v! ea86 ae68 corrola toyoda

when you snapped that ball joint splitter there was only one word that come to my head "Kurwa" which in Polish means "Fuck" but much stronger :P

[@TheBSRecord]

Hahaha that word sums it up pretty well! I was so mad when it snapped 🤣. Thanks for watching and supporting the channel!

[@gustavorabadan7897]

I say tackle the bay because either way it needs to get done. And the engine could be fine 👍🏽 keep up the content bud

[@TheBSRecord]

Thanks man! Really hoping the engine starts, we are getting close haha.

[@skylinegtrr3461]

That's why is always better th o buy good brand tools they are expensive but they won't brake

[@TheBSRecord]

Yeah I am learning my lesson on this build. Harbor freight does have some tools that are cheap and work, but it seems to always be a toss up. I have a couple Pittsburgh crow bars that work great, I figured this one should work well too. Oh well, you live and learn, I just hope others learn from my mistakes haha. Thanks for watching!

[@AliMECH]

Lol that tie rod was badass, but good job

[@TheBSRecord]

Haha yeah it sucked but I am glad I got it removed! Thanks for tuning in Ali!!

[@vapor4den]

One thing AT the Time, Do the engine bay and then you should focus on something else 😉🤙

[@TheBSRecord]

Yeah I tend to jump around while I build. That's probably why it takes me so long to finish projects haha 🤣. Thanks for watching and the suggestion!

[@johnmurfin]

I've got some worse rust under my brake booster I'm anxious to see how you'll be fixing rust in those areas. I'm worried I'll have to find a wrecked car n cut n reweld in that part of my firewall. Idk I haven't poked too much at the rust mostly from fear lol Also I bet if you located an air chisel that tie rod woulda been a little easier... maybe. But good job knuckle still looks useable 😀

[@TheBSRecord]

I'm not quite sure yet of how I am going to tackle it. Hopefully it isn't too bad and a wire wheel will he able to take care of most of it. Sometime you just have to show that rust who's boss and tackle it head on. If it senses your fear it will keep spreading! 🤣 but on a serious note, goodluck with your build and thanks for the support!

[@mechanicalmisadventures]

I felt your pain when that tie rod tool snapped! Good job for persisting with it👍 loving the videos mate, awesome to watch!

[@TheBSRecord]

Thanks for the support man. I swear, it was almost comical how stuck it was. And the other side just falling out....I was so heated lolol.

[@ruikazane5123]

Such a joy working on older cars, simple things but hard, stupidly hard to get everything in and out! But go get the chassis first. Rust kills cars!

[@TheBSRecord]

So true, old cars always come with their fair share of issues. I definitley need to tackle that rust and get it all fixed up! Thanks for watching!

[@antrinh5525]

man, you broke the tool twice, lol, just like i snaped my rear break caliper bracket bolt, i snaped it lol. at least u can always get ur money back from harbor freight brand( pitsbur i think). and offcourse the other side was super easy, same as for my brake job, the front was a breeze, the rear caliper braket bolts were all rusted out and snaped the second turn my wrench, luckily i got the bolt remover kit and drill it out and get new bolt.

[@TheBSRecord]

I feel your pain man 🤣 After the second break, I really turned up the heat on my welder and laid down a nice deep bead. Hopefully it is better now than new from the store. I guess we will just have to wait and see the next time I use it. I've been down the brake system struggles too, it sucks! But hey, at least we fixed both our issues 😎👍 thanks for watching!

[@callummcrae7774]

Get the motor running on the ground mate easy as with a carby setup. Although if wanting to weld up bay holes might pay to get it running in there first so you know what holes need to be kept, don't want to have to drill holes in your nicely painted bay!

[@TheBSRecord]

That was my exact though, glad you mentioned it here. Part of the reason why I want to install the engine in the bay and then try to start it first, is to make sure I have everything hooked up and mounted right. That way I know what holes I need and which ones I can weld up. Thanks for tuning in and the suggestion!

[@shobud7561]

Surely you don't call yourself a mechanic, by the looks of the mangled tie rods your a shade tree wanna be mechanic !

[@TheBSRecord]

I definitly do NOT view myself as a mechanic haha! Maybe a certified KZbin mechanic, but even that might be a stretch haha. Thanks for watching, I hope you enjoyed watching me suffer lol.

[@adrianpoptart1880]

Search up gulling I think that’s what happen to your tie rod

[@TheBSRecord]

Thanks for the comment, but I'm not sure what you mean by "gulling". If you are referring to me getting tricked or decieved on how to remove it, I can assure you it was in fact stuck and a complete pain in the you know what to remove haha 🤣 I will admit though, buying that cheap tool and thinking it would work definitly got me lol. Thanks for watching and supporting the channel!

[@lowell123]

Me personally I wouldn’t bolt the engine into the engine bay but I would “prop” it there as I am sure you would want to wire tuck the harness. I have other suggestions as well.... Seeing that you are removing the heater core I would try to utilize one of the holes on the fire wall from said heater core and run the engine harness there as it would hide the wires. From then you can figure out where to route the wires. Once that’s done I would see what holes you don’t need and circle all that is being used and start welding unused holes. Then take motor out and start by taking off all seam sealer and possibly stitch weld them.(or reseam seal them) Once all is done start painting 👌🏼

[@TheBSRecord]

Great suggestions man! I am actually planning on using the heater core holes to run all the wiring just like you mentioned above! I see cars in Japan with tucked bays doing the same thing. I also plan on using removable block off plates to "plug" the larger holes just in case I ever decide to reuse them. Thanks for tuning in and all the suggestions!

[@lowell123]

No problem I just suggested that because that’s what I’m doing with my KA24 ae86 lol

[@ShedLife]

Another sweet video dude.!! Go hard on the Bay, get that done shave it etc.! Nothing like a good shaved bay.! Then chuck the engine in, 4ages are pretty bullet proof so i would be surprised if it doesnt work straight away.!! And easy enough to pull in the future too if it turns out bad.

[@Lawthugg]

Its amazing what a little soap and water will do for you

[@TheBSRecord]

Yeah it actually cleaned up the bay really nice. The paint is still in pretty rough shape though but looks a lot better! Thanks for always tuning in 👍

[@yeaung5384]

Toyota proved that it si stronger than your tools 🛠

[@TheBSRecord]

Hahaha tell me about it! I couldn't believe how hard it was to get undone. Thanks for watching!

[@kaminoshi713]

Bringing back memories of when I tore down my hachi. Forgot to brace the rear (hatch)...

[@TheBSRecord]

Oh no! Did it end up falling on your or something? I bet that hatch must be heavy!

[@kaminoshi713]

Yeah that hatch is a bet heavier in the rear. Luckily I was at the front.

[@kswpae8650]

Why dont you try to start the engine outside of the car? That way you dont have to take the engine out again when you shave the bay.

[@TheBSRecord]

I have actually been toying around with that idea too. With the bay shaved and all the unnecessary components removed, installing the pulling the engine should be a much easier task than pulling the 4ac was. At least that's what I am hoping for. If this is the case, I would rather install the engine and make sure everything lines up, sits right, and works. Plus I am itching to see the 4age in the car haha! Thanks for watching and supporting the cahnnel!

[@kswpae8650]

Oh i get you. You want to see how it looks inside 😅 well do as you please 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@gurjindersingh199]

You should stitch weld the entire chassis

[@TheBSRecord]

Definitely thought about it but haven't made up my mind yet. I will be doing that or probably resealing the seams with seam sealer, but in a much cleaner way. Thanks for tuning in and the suggestion!

[@nolanruhs]

100% want to see that bay work. what kind of plans do you have for like a color scheme (future interior and exterior)?

[@KyushaStyleTuning]

Excellent video again. Please do the bay shave first. 😎

[@ivanma206]

Lmao!!!! RIP the tie-rod tool

[@TheBSRecord]

My heart sank so hard when that tool snapped. Then the passenger side tie rod literally falling out was just the icing in the cake 😤 thanks for watching!

[@takemoto_9gt]

You really tried hard

[@TheBSRecord]

I friggin did! Lol 😂

[@FFSteve81]

You just love posting vids when I'm out of town! Tackle the engine bay and the rust first. Although I got my 86 running 2 weeks ago, your's is waaay better looking than mine.

[@TheBSRecord]

Hahaha at least you have something to watch while out of town right ? 😆. Thanks for always tuning in and the suggestions. Also, congrats on getting yours running!

[@anthonywatson3130]

I think it would be best to fit the engine and everything first, then proceed to welding up any unused holes. It'll be more work and take longer, but hopefully you won't accidentally weld up a hole that you later end up needing.

[@TheBSRecord]

Yeah I am right there with you. I would be so mad if I got everything welded up and prepped then discover a hole that I need to re-drill. Thanks for always tuning in man!

[@redrevoc]

Why-don't-you-try rod

[@TheBSRecord]

Lol I tried so hard! I'm sure that tie rod was laughing at me the whole time 😄.

[@MultiColiflower]

i would work on the bay first, i love shaved engine bays, gonna look amazing when its done

[@TheBSRecord]

Me too! I am really hoping it turns out great once I am done. I have always wanted a car with a tucked engine bay!

[@willobeard79]

New sub here and so keen to see this build keep up the good work bro 👌

[@taylorgainey4879]

Hit the bay first

[@TheBSRecord]

Kind of leaning that way at the moment 👍

I'm 1st to comment! BTW, I'm glad you're still on, man. 🙂

[@TheBSRecord]

Thanks for the continued support as always!

@@TheBSRecord Thanks. So sad that tool you're trying to remove the tie rod is broken.
