Welcome to CL.

A great place to start is our vendor section of group buys. Carson Toyota is one of our highly recommended vendors: www.l-tunedparts.com

Some say the Altezza is the next coming of the AE86.... hasn't reached that cult status, but a very balanced and fun car to drive.

If you like drifting, you'll probably get to know the rear sway bars to dial out the understeer.

GL and welcome to the forum!
