Ae86 Rwd

[eg5ferio]

I notice people that looking for the AE86. I know is quite rare now & handles good but why are they so expensive if they come up for sale?even ones that are not so good condition, it occasionally comes up on eBay & goes for much as £3 - 4k!

Whereas on other hand rear wheel drive cars like s13 200sx are newer & not as expensive or £3-4k can buy you a mkII MR2 that is much newer.

expensive now bcos: Initial D, Buller Proof Twin Cam 16 Engine, LSD, awesome drift machine and will always be sought after because of their rallye history...

I would edit that if i were you! haha!

In std form they handle like a heap of !Removed!! Ive had 2 and as soon as i get them i put a decent set of shockers and springs on it! And even then the handling has alot to be desired!

Ive spent about £1500 on suspension to get it to handle well for track/road rallies/drifting! And that isnt even with coilovers!

:o

No, No ,No Sir :o

A drift car should not handle well...

....... where is the fun it that

An ideal 'drift' car is also anything such as a Rear Wheel drive 70's car : Capri, Manta, Celica RA28 or MGB GT ...

... and an early frosty morning with an icey car park or...at work...on the Military 'parade' Ground with (in my case) a 'clapped out' MGB GT with worn shockers and suspension bushes

...and then you get caught by ...the Royal Military Police ...

...and up infront of the Garrison Adjutant ... but he lets you off 'cause ...

...your driving a 'Classic Car' and ... he "used to have one of those" and...

..."don't do it again!"

..."No Sir"

the reason why they command such prices is because they are becoming iconic.

they are the the perfect drifting/dohnut machines.

there are simply loads of them over here in ireland and they go for anything

between 5,000 euros and 14,000 euros.

people just cant get enough of them.
