New member from Japan.
Hello! My name is Robbie and I am currently stationed in Misawa Japan with the U.S. Army. I have been here a little over the year, I own a 1996 Celica GT-four that has a few basic mods done to it. I joined this forum because I am going to buy an AE86 Levin for my wife in the next few months, and I want to know what I should look out for when buying one. Such as things that typically go out and are expensive to replace, or what kind of price range I should be paying, so on so forth. I do know that the one I have my eye on has minimal bodywork needed to be done and ZERO chassis rust. The shop I will be working with will teardown and repaint the whole car to what i want (i'm thinking Midnight Purple), give it a JCI ($900 road worthy test) and give it new gaskets and pipes. All for about $8000, depending on what the Yen rate is. Here is a pic of my current ride, and the levin, let me know what you think!
