Re: Should I or not?

If its a deal that you just cant pass up, then it might be worth obtaining. But usually in life, if you dont have the means to get something, and a working plan to get it to where you need it to be, more times than none it will be a failed endeavor. If you dont already have a stable job, in which to...

Thanks bud. I can't take the build credit as Jr did most of it. But I initially bought the car only to keep the car in SoCal but ended up loving it.

Re: Favorite Modifications

ITBs. Absolutely in love with how ITBs sound. So much so, that a louder exhaust is not something I want as it will take away from the ITB snarl. Just happy with an hks hi-power, de-cat and Silk Road header.

Love the louvered grill with fogs behind. A change from the standard JDM grill that I am used to seeing, though I love both looks.

Re: Should I or not?

If its something you want, can afford, are able to put time in to get running the way you want it, and have the space and tools (or local shop) to get it running, I say go for it. But as stated already, it should be discussed with your folks so they understand they might have an eye sore on the prop...

Re: 86 carpet install debate

specs on your car? If its a dedicated track day car, and you have performance mods, and its a loud car overall... It will still be loud, but should make a difference vs. what you are used to. Having to use ear muffs is something I cant imagine. My car is too loud for a radio (though a high powered o...

You could have sold yours for $600 or more then afford one that fits. But banged up, you devalued it significantly. Well done.

Re: PIC request 15x10 Diamond Racing wheels on AE86

10s will fit fine, but it's the offset you need for proper fitting. all depends on how much poke and what tire size you want.
-32 is my fav offset for 10s in the rear. 9.5 -19 front.

Let the sale, or lack thereof determine its value. I highly doubt it would ever sell at this price unless it was used in Tsuchiya's race car and signed, but time will tell.

Re: Gauging interest: Socal Bi-Monthly AE86/4AGE meet in Chi

Too bad something wasnt organized earlier to be able to round up people for a toy drive this Christmas. A nice dealer car show or a meet with toy donations at the Toyota Museum in LA would have been a good charity event with an existing group of locals.
