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

because they're cheap.

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,

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.

>>13943053
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

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
