Why are there so many of these in Ireland and pretty much none in the UK?

because they're cheap.

Maybe 20 years ago.
What are some good basic mods for an AE86?
I want to keep stock height.
Thinking front and rear sway bars, and uhhh, thats all i got.
>>13943079
Still, when they were on sale, people here were buying more expensive hatches and sports cars,

rallying is pretty popular in ireland

Vent cup holder.

Put a sik exhaust, rotas and rally lights on it.

No ricer crap.
Just want better handling
>>13943161
Toyota rally lights and stickers give youa extra 20 horsepower and +2 to handling.
>>13943161
Handling is generally preference. Otherwise, redo every steering component you can and give it new coilovers all the way around.
World of difference most of the time.
Tofu car!!
>>13943090
New shocks and springs.

Manual steering rack from an Mr2, various bracing all around, shocks, TRD or kaaz 1.5 or 2 way LSD. About all you need. Lowering it 1 inch helps a decent amount and you should do it. Keep the wheels at 14".

>Manual steering rack
Literally why? There is no delay in the AE86's steering, it is just power steering. You can't even tell the difference between power steering and non-power steering when you are at speed

Gotta train your arms every day when you pull out of the lot.
Also, in my case, I don't want to deal with my leaky ass power steering ever again. Just another 30 year old component that will fail. A manual rack has nothing but a couple rubber seals that'll need changing in 20 years. But yeah, the power steering does feel fine when it works. Manual rack is a little lighter and it helps that you don't need to drive a pump for it.

Fucking Britbongs and their of AE8x.
Fuck all Anglo Saxons!
>>13943053
Ireland has a thing for rallying.
Also, a 1.6 works well with the tax regime of the time. It's still an assfucking, but at least it has the consolation of being lubed. Unlike pretty much every other 'preformance' car.

Fuckers arent cheap in the U.S either. Road salt killed most of them. And the ones that are left are overpriced.
I just want one so Natsuki might actually go out with me to Lake Akina to smooch

Don't fuck with a Daewoo Matiz..
>>13945431
Why the fuck would anyone do this? I'd run him over a couple of times more

Imagine that. Someone that isn't a beaner or a scrape 'n vaper.
sheepshagfag here looking for an irishfag to tell me how i would go about getting an AE86 back to wales without insuring it. could i get someone to trailer it to a port then send it and i pick it up in west wales and trailer it back or would it be cheaper to drive to guinessland with an empty trailer?

I like how americans on /o/ complains about drift tax for 86s, when they're fucking cheap over there. AE86s and Starlets go for stupid money in Ireland
