Hi, my name is Ben, im 18 and im new to this forum well kinda of lol, i just bought my very first hachi roku yesterday and i thought i might aswell share with you how i got it lol.
Before own the 86 i owned a ae82 seca with the ae92 map 4agze in it when i was 16, i bought it off a guy who upgraded to a fully worked r32 and was tellin me he wanted to get into drifting (not knowing what that was then). I learnt who to drive on the gze (meaning getting tought how to drive on L's) and when the new p plate law came out i was stuffed. i turned 17 on the 10th of july and at the year it was a sunday and the RTA was not open so i had to go for them on the 11th (the day the law came out) so i had to sell that car.
Moving on from the ae82 i went to a ae92 sx (so i am familiar with the 4ag family) and owned that for 1 and abit years going through 2 rebuilds (bad rebuild by first company). I was getting bored with the ae92 and fwd cars (as you do when you go from boost to n/a) and i started to look around for a ae86 and after 7 months of looking i finally came across what i thought was a bargain.
I got my ae86 off a member of toymods and they guy before him that owned worked at castle hill toyota, for the money he was asking i couldnt say no, so here it is.

Its an 1983 ADM AE86 with a rebuilt bigport motor with balanced crank, trd metal head gasket, 4-2-1 extractors with a 2 1/4 inch system all the way through, new clutch and lightened flywheel, lovell front springs, a momo wheel with extended boss kit, still got the factory radio cassette in it and recaro seats with fish net headrests which the guy thinks they are out of a hilux surf. The paint is not too good because someone has resprayed it and its crap, its cracking and what going powdery. But i couldnt say no for $4200, so here are the pics:

Thanks Ben.
