    Talking Svenmate's daily skidder

    Just noticed I put this in wrong members thread. Should be in 'Other Rides' not other toyota. Sorry, Nick.


    Hey all,

    My Ae71 is slowly becoming a track only car and so i thought i'd better get something a bit more daily friendly.

    Had a look around and picked up a pretty good deal that i'm happy with. I've had it for a while now and thought i'd create a build thread.

    Its great for sliding, a bit underpowered but at least it's RWD. Has awesome brakes that lock the rear up real easy especially at unusually high tyre pressure .

    Plenty of steering lock, cool chrome mirrors, nice luggage space and a good pair of semi slicks.

    I haven't done any serious mods to it as it is a street daily. I installed a clock and radio for obvious reasons

    Just gonna keep it how it is. I love it.

    Pics and more info coming soon.

    Cheers, Svenmate

    Had my first drift accident the other day with it. No real damage though, just a few scratches and dents

    It's pretty different. I chose my words very carefully as to not give it away immediately. I'll put a pic up tomorrow.
