Yo, Sup!! Im Zac and this is my new project. It's a 1983 ae86, it was pig as fuck when I first got it. When I bought this car I had the exact amount of cash on me at the time and I drove my mate Chris (ae8620v) and I down to Byron from Cooly to have a gander at it. It was night and the moon wasn't so bright so I was havin a stab in the dark as far as rust and the sellers honesty is concerned (he had mentioned in the selling description a whole lot of performance upgrades done on it, he was talking shit. All I knew for the test drive was that it had stiff suspension and that it was drift ready). But I was keen for an 86, after seeing my mate Chris's 86 and how bullshit, awesome it is, I was pretty much gonna buy it not matter what. After all, paying forty five hundred for an 86 with a 4age (just a big port at the moment but I can work with that) already installed and mod plated, your not gonna get one thats to clean for that amount. So, I jumped in and bought it. Only minor things were needed for a roadworthy but there was to many things to list. So, out of frustration I stripped it, witch was an extremely liberating experience. While stripping the car down, I found lots of rust and nuts and bolts that were tightened to finger torque. I was like "this is fuckt". It had a garage shanty sticker on the inside of the roof (some of you might recall me and ae8620v talking shit about the whole garage shanty boys thing "Oh how I wish I was shanty boy", nice build you guys did.... Not!). Anyways, I am currently respraying the shell and making minor improvements on the engine and gearbox/drive train.

I have a lot in store for this car and Im not gonna stop until its completely the way I like it. I always look in performance import mags and see the cars that are professionally built and look absolutely awesome and I think to myself "I want to build something just like that". I plan on having this car road legal so I cant go to far with that motive but I will say this, its gonna be low, its gonna be loud and its gonna be one bad-ass skidder
