Nice! you got any pics of your AE86 too? I just sold mine last year.

GTE swapped 1GS for your AE86? I think you got the better end of the deal.

Thats pretty cool.. did you have widened rear fenders also? Kinda looks like it or I'm trippin. I sold my hatchback last year and I miss it. Been thinking about getting another AE86 as a beater, but coupe this time.

Don't you wish you kept your AE? saves a lot of gas compared to the GS. (thats the reason I'm looking for another beater)

Here is the reason why I bought my GS as a daily.. I had a flashy red AE86, with a big FMIC chillin out front.. Cop magnet.



But after a few months, I couldn't keep my GS stock.. lol. Ended up boostin the GS as well. lol

damn.. 14x10 -42?? sick lip. Nice! Thats wsup! I had SSR Formula Mesh, but nothing like your size. The last set of wheels I had on the AE86 was some SSR MKII, 14x8, -12, and 14x8.5, -7, rollin with stock fenders, just rolled.

Lol thats right. I had a full 20v swap in the works before getting rid of my hachi since it was getting ridiculously expensive to get parts. With the money i invested in my hatch i could've have a nicely built s14... i miss it but wouldnt get one again.
