The price of RWD parts !!!

[matt dunn]

Holy ##%*^*

Is this really what these bits are worth?

I know RWD stuff is expensive, but maybe I should dig my bits out of the garage and sell them.

HA!! no fricking way
Buy the lot new from Toyota for the price of his water pump!

That is $&#$% mad!

New AE86 (RWD) pump with rear housing $100ish last time I bought one but will check again on Monday!
Any AE82 thermostat housing (lower radiator hose pipe) fits and are a little longer.
The pully is the issue I think as they are different offset from memory?

Top pipe maybe hard to come by but are they serious!

As you say Matt, I might have to have a dig out and sell some stuff too!

geez, i thought I was doing pretty well to sell an entire genuine rwd waterline setup, including the sensor block on the back of the head for just under $200 a while back...

NZ_AE86 - you can use either pulley, so long as you use the waterpump to match, so don't even need a rwd pulley or pump to run on a rwd setup. also pretty sure you can use the top outlets from other models too, ive seen a few different types which work.

Parts might not come up too often too often due to hoarders Half of which are probably toyspeeders

You can use either pump with the coresponding pulley but must use RWD pump if you are using an engine driven fan as they have a larger bush to take the load of the fan.

What other models for the top outlet? I need one to modify for my next engine but don't want to chop one of my AE86 ones up!

seller was just lucky there where a few suckers looking for those parts,
those are crazy prices,

the engine sandwich plates use to be like $50. now jumped up to $80 and even $100 just for a plate, i got like 5 of them in the garage some where,

[rollaholic]

more dollars than sense eh, holy shit!

makes you wonder what some of the parts you actually need the RWD version of might be worth

[rx7guy]

Haha yeah that was my flatmate selling those he was stoked when the engine turned up with the rwd bits on. Crazy money

I dont even like cars. It's just a great hobby if you love to hoard things.

My Supra's waterpump cost me about $76 from R&B. Somehow I think that guy is dreaming....

[Dell'Orto]

Takumi didnt drive a Supra though

[frost]

[Dell'Orto]

It more flattens than goes up

They're used to bulldoze the tracks through the mountains
