i think ae86 is for thoes who really like the car for the car itself. otherwise its not practical at all. basicly because of lack of power. (if you plan to use it in motorsports) and even if you swap the engine to a big ass atomreactor, the original powertrain cant support it. -> you have to swap the gearbox and get a stronger rear axle from another car or at least halfshafts. thats a lot of resarch, work, time and shitloads of money. then comes the question: why do i start off with an 86 if i have to change almost everything in it anyway? if your true answer is: you love the 86 for no reason (maybe for its style, mood etc) then its the car for you.
othervise: go for nissans, bmws!

edit: bigger toyotas can also be an option Smile
if i were to start off with my project today with my actual experience, i would chose:

for a fun car, power is overrated, you can have a lot of fun with a stock 4age.

I use my ae86 everyday, when Im not building it furher and I have no complaints. I also take it to trackdays and have no complaints on that end either.

ae86 are more like hobby cars nowdays since their old. if you want a ae86 you will need to make more effort for its upkeep than on newer more regular cars.

thanks for your help. that does not sound like the car for me. i might change my mind but i will probably get a bmw. thanks for not making the car seem like more than it is just because you like them. see you round.
