Hello, my name is Cody and I am new to the 86 world, this is it pretty much. I got it for my wife to learn to slide at some of the events and for me to drive to work everyday, not much to it right now just cut springs, bluetop, welded sr5 rear end. I bought it like that, but do have a good bit of things ordered to slowly make it a little better. PBM coilovers should be here monday, plus some other small suspension bits. The 16v is burning oil so I got a fancy silvertop for it, it's not in the condition I thought it was in, neither did the seller, so I am having rebuild it. Thought I would join here since everyone up here has been around the block with these a few times and I can learn a few things
New to the 86

Welcome to the forum, man! Hope you find what you are looking for.
There shouldn't be a day that goes by where you don't learn something new.

Re: New to the 86
Got the coils in and slapped them on the car, I like how they make the rear a real coilover. I need to stitch weld the shock housing to add some strength seeing that it isn't really designed to handle a coil spring. The car is purple right now, haven't finished because I keep buying out the hobby shop of paint and 3.5 oz of paint doesn't cover much. Waiting on my T3 tierods, steering arm, and panhard bar.
