First 86er DD/HPDE weekend warrior
Well I'm one of the first 86 contest winers. I took delivery May 8th 2012, raven/stick shift. Other then taillight condensation I've had no problems to date. I recently got hooked in the track/hpde band wagon.
Delivery day at my first 86 party mods exterior APR front splitter Driveway labs rear diffusor LED switchbacks Rear fog light DIY Red hella rally horns Perrin short antenna Red crystals eye tail lights LED license/reverse lights Smoked jdm sidemarkers 8k HIDs Red Rally Armor mud flaps Factory front towhook install w/ towhook cap drilled through. Sparco red towstrap installed rear driver side interior Schroth rally 3 harness Kenwood touch screen/DVD player Back up cammera Radar detector Defi oil pressure gauge Led interior light swap Broadway rear view mirror JL audio sub/amp Cusco Gas pedal Team voodoo piano blac shift knob Weather tech floor mats with frs (red) logo suspension Eibach sport lines (waiting to install) performance Mishimoto oil cooler Grimmspeed brake cylinder brace Hawk HPS brake pads Radium catch can Intake heat wrapped gold HKS drop in filter Weight savings Shorai 4.8lb battery Video of me doing advanced drivers course at PIR to be cleared for solo HPDE. This was while bone stock, stock brakes/tires ect [ame]http://youtu.be/EuOE9re3Xyc[/ame] pics Updated pic 3/3/14 My other addiction, is detailing her! This is my door Invisible lol I'm undecided on adding know shocks to the springs I already have in my garage or go coils. I don't want more then an 1.5in drop. My driveway an most of Portland is to steep for that shit, even with going up/over stuff 1 tire at a time. Also can't decide on a set of rims I want. Has to be light weight but I want a crazy color like dark purple. Anywho, more to come.

I love the video. I really want to get into that stuff this summer, but haven't a clue where to start.
Careful with tracking the lowered cars, if you do that. Those axles

Ahhh. Okay. Love the Berk setup with that deep rumble! Made a few videos on youtube with just the muffler delete and then with that and the front pipe from Berk w/o the cat.
Tomei sounds good too but really expensive and I prefer dual exhaust. To each their own I guess.. Looking forward to your future builds!! [ame]http://youtu.be/azHcNOtbiAw[/ame] [ame]http://youtu.be/b9Bm1f-ECmI[/ame] |

Needed help getting it out of the drive way but once I got her to the main roads driving in the Ice was easy. Love how controlled drifting is in the thing. Also installed my catch can. Pics when she thaws. Hks filter and intake heat wrap coming soon.

Love the build, it's cool that you're willing to modify a relatively significant car (2nd sold ever in the US). How are you liking the APR front splitter?
