Hi

I want to introduce my project . All started in 2007 when i bought my first car - ae86.
It was a stock hachi with 2,5inch custom made exhaust. I didn't know anything about motorsports. Now i know much more but.. sometimes I need some help.

I sold my first 86 to Vilnius in Lithuania and bought another one in Poland.
The new one was better but still need a lot of work.

Generally, I've been having bad luck with this car.
The previous owner of the car hadn't told me that there was water inside cooling system. When temperatures under zero appeared... You know what happened...
I decided to change radiator (to much bigger from newer corolla), water pump, water lines and cooling fluid.

The next problem was overheating... Why? - Radiator cup was broken. I replaced it.

Then, everything seemed to be ok, but unfortunately, I had overheated the engine a couple of times...

About 2-3 months later my diff started to be very noisy . My car was useful for 6 months! because I had to earn money for the repair.
I bought new 4,778 R&P, new diff bearings and washers to make lsd stronger.

At last I became a happy ae86 owner but... not for long... ;p
I went on holidays with my girlfriend. Hachi made about 1.5kkm. 100km from home.. the headgasket blew up ;(
Then I thought: "what to do? should I buy an engine or repair this one?"

Finally, I decided to make a bigger upgrade.

I'd like my ae86 to be a bit for drifting but more for street racing and track day.

Present plans:
- repair my engine
- new exhaust
- new suspension
- new brake rotors and pads
- strengthen shell a little
