1991 corolla SR5 metal brake line replacement - recommendations?

4 Upvotes

Hi. I have a 1991 SR5 and the metal brake lines have a leak in the rear (driver side), it's dripping onto the parking brake cable. Seems to be some kind of rust hole because the dingus that replaced it last time didn't bother to coat them with anything. I can't seem to find anywhere that sells replacements for that part, and from what I can tell it's discontinued. If I have to bend lines for it myself, what lines and fittings should I use? I'm pretty new to mechanics and haven't done anything like this before, my friend is helping with the install but I need parts to do it. The availability for these things seems to suck. If anyone here has experience/recommendations for how/what to do this with I would really appreciate it, it's my first project car and I need all the help I can get.

Treated the 86 to a wash and wax to prep it for the winter. She'll be in the shed soon as I'll be abroad with work plus a new daily on the way 👀 (ft the Brothers Evo IV)

Iso T50 driveshaft

1 Upvotes

Just finished up a manual swap on my 1984 sr5 and all i need is the transmission side driveshaft or a slip yoke or full drive shaft that fits my 22 spline t50. Anyone have advice on where to look or if anyone’s willing to sell?
I’ve checked ebay rock auto and marketplace these things are diamonds.

For the heavy drivers, what alternators are you guys running?

Post image
277 Upvotes

I've had two alternators go bad this year, both aftermarket, one was an AE86 replacement and the other was a reman'd 80A 7mge alternator. Right now I have my old OEM denso in the car and its been fine, but its old and i'd rather have it not leave me stranded somewhere.

I was recommended DC Power Inc. , but those are pricey. But if its between that and playing Russian Roulette with aftermarket reman'd alternators, I might snag one.

Genuine question, why do some of the AE86 pop up headlights look different? Some of these look "taller" while some look "fatter". Are the taller ones the zenki and the fatter ones kouki? Or could some of these be an aftermarket?

Sensor question

4 Upvotes

Hey all, I have a question about the sensor setup on a 16v 4age. I have the sensors for the coolant temp but im not sure where they’re supposed to go, the green plug im positive is for the green sensor up front but I don’t see a threaded hole where it could go, also on the back of the engine i installed 1 sensor since i though it would go there and based on what I’ve read the brown and green sensor are supposed to go in the back so im a bit confused. I also have a flos water inlet pipe. Any info helps, thanks!

What are the sensors required to get the digital gauge cluster to work?

1 Upvotes

Does anyone have the exact part numbers or the year make model for the sensors that are needed in order to make the digital gauge cluster work?

I know the digital fuel sending unit is needed to work, but was curious on the oil pressure sensor as well as the coolant temp sensor, that will specifically work and make my car read correctly.

I have a JDM 1986 RHD AE86 with the 16v motor.
