after initial d (the dvds), fat chance.
after the movie, good luck!
ALL of the ricer, rather wanna-be-a-drift-star kids have scooped-up many of them and many have also subsequently been wrecked.

take a tip form me dont even start on the engine you best start looking for that rear end cause as of right now you have drum brakes a no way of putting in an lsd cause finding and installing a 4ag is easy and its not a hard swap at all for you to do yourself to gain alot of experince

thanks for all the advice people

i'm not looking to race, so i don't need the speed. my question was how fast could someone do it.
i also know that it would be better if i swapped it myself, but i'm lazy and i got the funds, plus i'm out a car for a good month if i do it in my garage

so if anyone knows someone with the experience and the speed, let me know

oh, and it's not an AE86 if it's an SR5.
Sorry Tony, but I have an SR-5, and it says directly in the VIN, AE86.

wats, the problem is you need to salvage all these other parts, its not jus buy the motor and drop it in. it will prolly take u 2-3 months to get those parts.

...stock...fast...no
w/ mods yes...and yes it is a great motor...i do agree to that

Your exactly right, but that's why I want to pay someone to do this for me. And there are people that will. I'd just like to know if any of you mechanically inclined individuals would do the honors. Pretty Please!
