yea..but cost-wise...the SE-R's are great..but the corollas go for about 1000 for a normal stock one..and 3000 for a modified one with built carbs...LSD in the rear..suspension mods...upgraded clutch..bigger brakes.. yea theyre old...but for the price..and i get Rear Wheel Drive which makes it really really fun to swing around I considred a 240sx..but theyre a bit expensive too

you not one of those drifting guys after watching initialD, are you?RWD? I would go for the 240SX or a RX-7 FC. They got tons of those really cheap.

But you do know the main story is about AE-86, right .... sorry, I just like to watch the show. By the way, it's hard to find part for that car here. As i said, go for some 89 or 90 240SX which I also owned.

Here you go:

http://www.club4ag.com

This is where I used to hang out when I had an older MR2. They're weak, but they are fun in the curves. With the right mods you can take hondas, but don't try anyone else unless you slap in the 4agze(supercharged).
