Mosqiton sent me these the other day... Some really nice ideas on this car. It's a TRD sponsored drift car in Australia. One of the nicest AE86's I've seen:

Love the diff / transmission cooler in the rear and the 2 rear callipers (One for handbrake, one for brakes, so there's no interference). Lots of thought's gone into this car.

Before the colour change..

You'd be smiling too if sponsored by TRD & owned a car like this! Very Happy

Its Dmax. The whole car is Dmax!

And just for the record the TRD and Silver car are two different cars. TRD use to be his daily car until it was defected. I know where the silver one is now but it doesnt look like it did anymore!!

Hehe

You're right Mr Beau - does look like a different car now I look at the engine bay, lol. Thumbsup

Even better - 2 nice cars then!

Aus sucks for "defecting" cars. Nothing like that in Japan YET, although things are beginning to change....! Shocked

oh ok make sense.

well i was thinking of using hydraulic hand brakes but cant seem to find any information on it.

wouldnt if be difficult to get enough brake power through the hand brake without a brake booster.
