Re: AE86
Arkadia Racing Developmen Wrote:I just bought a 86 and i have been tuning it up but it dosent seem to be that good of a car. dont get me wrong it is a great begginer drifting car but after a while you need a lot more power then the 86 can ever put out. does anybody have any ideas i can do to my car to make it up to my specs. 2'sThe hachiroku is a bit underpowered but with some nice suspension mods people can do amazing things with it. Check out the homebrew media and drifting sections on this forum for movies and you'll see what I mean. So I would suggest, if you really think the hachi is to underpowered to drift properly, maybe practice a bit more  The driver in the end,is more important then the car...Offcourse if you do competition, to keep up in speed with some of the big boys, well you're gonne come up short. Well unless your name is Ueo (search for that name on youtube) As for engine tuning, look around in the technical and project sections of this forum. Plenty of work being done in that area. IanG's project thread is interesting, he's swapping an S2000 engine in his car. To much power really. Also PNut and TE71Corolla both have gone blacktop route, which is nice to, though TE71Corolla is now putting some nissan junkin there :lol:. Also take a look at some of our australian friends threads, really some nice stuff going on there. Finally, look back in the old history of this site for a project thread by some guy called Zax. He's now drifting a S13 but before that he was very active with stock warn down engined AE86 with just a few suspension mods. Some crazy movies showing a hachi roku can definately drift... And there is plenty more
Greetz, Bastiaan "mux213" Olij Moved down under, no more hachi
