    hehe "save" for an ae86, thats what sux about these cars you shouldnt have to save for a 1980's jap car, you should just be able to place 3 teeth under your pillow and wake up ontop of an ae86.

    well my ae86 cost $1600 to buy so there was no saving needed, just wondering what did you wont to spend on an 86 did you wont one thats already been played with?

    $10K

    The < $ 6000 sprinters are too Aus Spec these days for my liking, pre-tinkered = win

    Sad cause my first real AE86 cost me $2900 and had a 100KW 4A-GE, Coilovers and Strut Brace

    Wish I had never sold it now...

    Love the tooth fairy comment BTW!

    didnt save at all. sold the last car (XC falcon) and bought an ae86 and had cash to spare (cash to spare was spent on repairs). then sold that ae86 and bought another with that money+other cash saved

    Awesome stuff, great to hear you're on your way mate

    I had the money already saved when I bought mine, that was before I got a credit card, mobile bills, uni bills....

    I have to agree with what you want Nick, one with all the goodies done is as simple as pick up and drive. The happiness that follows when driving it is the reward
