Selling my 1986 Corona which i purchased recently as a runaround car while i was deciding what car to buy for my project.

Well, i have found a car which i would like to purchase so i need to sell this car first.

The car is in very good condition throughout, no rust or damage.

I have all the reciepts and log books for the car.

100% reliable, will start first time every time and run perfectly, no problems with car at all.

The car is manual and is fantastic on fuel.

Just had the car serviced and tuned.

It has : 3 1/2 months rego, exhaust, K+N Filter, full alarm, new radiator, hoses, lifters, brakes and carby (all with reciepts), 4 speaker radio/cassette.

Looking for $1200.

What more could you ask for in a $1200 car ??

Contact me here or at [email protected]

I'm in Sydney.

Thanks for your support INASNT.

Maybe your cousins Corona isn't in as good condition as my one or maybe it hasn't got as many features.

If i don't sell it, i'll keep it, it's the perfect runaround car, nothing wrong with it.

      The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow

      Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
