Well in the US market they kept the chassis code AE86 across all the models, in Japan the models were differentiated along with the AE86 and AE85 chassis codes, which is why I said AE85 when you noted it was an SR5. Yes the plate on the firewall says AE86 in your pic, so you've been spared by whatever reason Toyota decided to just use one chassis code across all models stateside lol(I say laziness lol).
winning lol

Okay so i got the engine in Last weekend but only one mount came in from Toyota so now i am waiting for a mount to come from Japan they said 2 weeks :/
I still need to put my fuel pump in the tank and put the tank in the car.
I have also been to lazy to paint the inside of the car. I need to get some extra time to work really hard on it. I have never built a car before but its a lot of work for one person.
