I sent my AE86 to have its gaurds done, doesn't look right!

Do you think they should do it again ??

It says on the window that you're the co-driver... does that mean you still sit on the left-hand side? :twisted: :lol:
We know that four-wheel drive doesn't work in a racing car, and I proved to myself that it doesn't work very well for rallycross. I'm absolutely convinced that it has no future in rallying, either, even if the regulations allowed it. - Roger Clark (rallying legend), circa 1976

Looks OK to me - especially with the number being 897. We're 703 so a different class thank goodness!
See ya

Mate, they've totally done you over.
Heres what you should do: Go back to them, tell them that they've ruined a rare mint condition AE86 and demand a replacement.

And me being the good bloke I am, I'll let you give me that 'monstrosity' so that you don't have to be associated with the horrific work they've done.

No no, its alright, I'll take one for the team.
Motorsport is like sex. You could take it to track and have a long, enjoyable session, or you could take it to the strip and get it over with in less than 20 seconds.

Looking tidy!

But i think you should ask for your money back because in like a year the 86 will be worth way more than this :lol:

Yeh sorry about the moving roadblock... :) There were enuff slow (road) cars there - me in the MR, couple of 944's, MX5's and a tasty 968CS - to warrant a separate session imho. Quite scary out with the fast boys when you're only doing 17's - especially those NZ V8 things. Were you keeping up with Mr McIntyre and co?

Saw a 996GT3 there as well - pink and black livery - how does the 997 compare?
