ae86 is nice as a project car...like the crx...if u have some extra cash and wanna throw it on some cheap but fun car...ae86 would be a nice pick. but someone mention ae86 own downhill racing...ehhhh...r u actually go downhill racing? i m sure most of u don't take ur evo to go rally...so forget that downhill racing...i don't even know a downhill area in NJ that's good enough to actually try. BUT...AE86...NICE PROJECT CAR =)

some people need to realize Initial D is fiction. An AE86 is a nice car and can be a good racer once tuned properly. It'll never be a high class competitor though. If I had some spare cash lying around, I'd buy one right now.

btw, I love initial d, but some people need to learn it's not the end all bible of auto racing.

But for some cheap RWD car fun, few cars can touch the Hachi Roku

A friend of mine has one, he has all kinds of drifting fun in it! He hasn't modified it much but he's got some big plans.

I can def tell that from the car you drive

That's also a plan for us...too bad the price for SR20DET has been jacked up over the last couple years...at least in our area

thank you joe now i wanna go practice kanji for a bit.

The price hikes on any imported Nissan engine enrages me! I want to do a fronte end silvia conversion to my car, but now it's gonna run me around 1000 bucks just for the junkyard parts

if your getting an s15 front clip for about a grand, thats not too bad. if everything is in good condition, then thats pretty good. the last time i checked on new s15 headlights, they were running 400-500 a pair.

I was not trying to start crap but I just wanted to know why people want them so bad for, my folks used to have one and it was a nice car and all but why a over 15 year old car? Was it in a movie or something or is it part of the new "Drifting" deal? Like these 240's popping up everywhere?
