I have a two door 1985 Tercel thats my daily driver. I love it, have had no major problems with it, but I would sell it in a MINUTE if there worth this:

My tercel:: Goldie is a 1986 SR5 attualmente con Weber/also owned the first T4WD in STL in late '82

This is a ludicrous price for a two-door, even were the mileage a lot less. This would have bought some of those clean SR5s a bit ago. I guess the key is the "collectible" tagline the seller used.
Wonder if it'll sell - for anything near $6K ?

Try the 94 Tercel rotors and the Paseo calipers?

I want to put a 4age in my sisters Corolla Tercel (1982) as there is massive room in the engine bay.

No, I didn't know about that swap back then. We just did the rear discs.

How much of a difference did that make?

No difference at all, but they looked cool. :lol:
The drums are more than adequate for stopping a Tercel. Vented front discs would be a much better upgrade than rear discs.
