    Default New Here from Gainesville, GA

    Hey, everyone

    I'm new here, I believe someone told me about this forum a year or so ago, though I have been active in another forum, but I figure I might get to know people around here. I'm a Toyota/Subaru fan. I hope that I can learn more and also be able to help others here. I also figure it would be easier to find other AE86 drivers here.

    Haha, no. I didn't know there was anyone that did that swap around here. I've actually only met one other 86 driver around me.

    Well hopefully sometime soon, maybe when I rebuild the rearend, I killed the LSD at around 350,000 miles. I was thinking of going with Eibach springs and AGXs

    I know at least two people that are on here and I know of one other 86 driver that lives south of me. Maybe I'll meet more of you all, since I'm planning on going to the old school car meet.

    I'm already going to go to the Japanese Old School meet in Cumming this Saturday. I would definitely be interested in going, especially with the finally decent weather.

    Thanks, I figured it would only be a matter of time before I saw someone say that, lol. BTW, I'd like to know where you got the short TRD license plate.

    I got the TRD plate from teamcelica but the site went down a few months ago. There is a guy on newcelica.org that is making them right now for around $15 shipped I think.

    No, my name is Daniel. More than likely it was me going by on 53. I've seen a Zenki 86 around me but it's in pretty bad shape. The video I did in one take, so I didn't get a better chance to do better for the video and I prefer the T-handle shifter, though I'm running the stock one for now.
