Simon from UK.......HI !!!!! (pics - 56k warning)
Hi everyone,

another hachi lover from the uk.

Found my way here thanks to IanG........I'm 28 live in London and now on my 3rd, yes 3rd AE86.....I love em ! the one I got now is deffo the best though !!

After 2 UK spec levins I now have a late Trueno from japan, a Black Limites one too ! and tuned for hi spec and drifting.

So here we go with some pics..................

My first hachi when I just bought it, had an AE92 4agze supercharged engine fitted, and a few other mods but not many.

And turned it into this over while

At the time I had problems with the supercharged engine and sold it, was replaced by a normal 4age

Then I decided to sell up.

A few months later though, when I saw this I couldnt resist......

and THEN, just as I bought this one, I saw my current car in japan, and thought, I JUST GOTTA GET IT ! lol

I bought it, had it taken to a drift garage for full servicing and bodywork repairs, also the dyno run...........I'm so happy with it !

Here are the pics while it was in japan

Man thats one nice car!!Smile

btw your imagestation photos dont work, you might want to attach them to the thread instead of linking them directly.

And your camera phone pics are pretty good for a camera phone..

Hi Simon, saw your silver car when it was featured in Retro Cars a few months back. Jamey was very upset about your comments about the CF bonnet !

The black limited looks good though, nice parts list to go with it !

Jon,

If you saw the CF bonnet when it first arrived...........well, maybe you would have felt the same.

However I am not here to start controversy, obviously the bonnet ended up on my car anyway !

And as for that Retro article, only 50% of what they wrote was factually correct.........but what happened, happened.

Oh well !!
