    Dude is asking $2.5k. Not bad, IMO, for a neat looking old-school Toyota with a bit more JDM flair than similarly priced *E7*'s.

    that's pretty good, i know people on this forum don't like ebay threads but there should be some exceptions, someone off here buy it and turn it into a project!

    Yeah I thought that was just ebay links. So I excluded the link, and may have in the process discovered a major loophole in the AE86DC forum rules.

    But seriously, this car is only worth so much, so I highly doubt it will initiate a dastardly 'bidding war'.

    would have been even better if you left ebay out of it all together and just said it was on the site that shall not be named :lol:

    I've seen one of these in a Kyusha Kai type magazine with some widened T18 steels and shiny trim rings, really low...very tough.

    IMO would only be suited for a period style project, not some 16 year old hacking up for skids.

    That Carina TA31 is not to be compared to KE70s from the 80s, it is to be compared to RA23s from the 70s.

    If it was a Carina GT, with 2T-G, I would probably buy it. This one is the normal spec with 2T-C it seams.

    Well, technically, no. But in terms of value, they are comparable.
