Hi guys,

Haven't been on ina bit,most you should remember my EP91, then I switched to an EK9 to try out the Vtec y0 hype.

While impressed with the EK9's build quality and handling, it was quite boring...
To this day, I still regret selling my EP91 as I spent so much time and energy into it!

Anyway, now I've traded the Honda for another Toyota, so have a look and tell us what you think ;)

Yup its an AE86 Trueno with some tasty mods too like TRD 2 way diff, Mani, 5Zigen exhaust, OS Giken clutch to name but a few!
My first RWD and I'm loving it, however, gotta be always on your guard especially in the wet! As the back end comes out so easily! Haha

love it :) I fear you may have upset some of the Honda fanboys but I am sure they will get over it.

thats the chance you will take with another one.
you still got my red recaro lying around?


Nah, couldn't get it to fit even though I was told it was straight bolt on -_- Well I did after some modding but it was way too high, so sold it on and got an EK9 recaro instead!

vtec n/a does get boring your not wrong.. but turbo vtec wont ;););)

looks nice, one thing though.. does it not feel like a step back having a car that old after driving semi modern cars like the civic/starlet? kinda like driving an old capri or something? always wanted an ae86 but dont think it would do me for the daily commute

I wouldn't say a step back but something totally different! However, was surprised the first time when I drove it and how pokey it is! And I love the sound of the 4-ag on full blast!

Personally i like the look of the Levin better but that is nice. a few small bits and it'll look great

Ooo nice, always wanted a ae86 but finding good ones are hard now, unless your paying silly money for them, your next next mod is twin weber carbs, then have a sex wee at the noise lol
