Here in the good old US of A... MY 86 is gone, but my 83 AE71 is just an AE86 in better clothes :wink:
Although not worried - not sure WHY I'm not worried - things have been tough here too. The wife sold her IS300 (Gita) and she now drives a near pristine AE86 because it is MUCH less costly then the IS300 was to operate.

There is some exciting news on the edge of realization... an Irish company, LEEN, is just about finished with development of their adapter to mate the J160 (Toyota's AZ6) to a 4A bell housing

Very interesting - just ran the figures through a gear calculator and the 6-speed would be lovely along with the oem 4.3 final. Almost like a quaife/trd cose ratio box but with an additional low first gear for queing and traffic jams
