Hey all love the forum, got my 86 a month ago and loving it, it's one of those cars you find any excuse to drive.

Do you guys ever do any outride or breakfast runs let me know.

86 + Skidpan =

Almost sad my girlfriend booked us a holiday this weekend...

Tip 1 - hold the TC button until all lights come on before you sliding as it will disable the safety net and rescue your clutch

Tell her it is fun - if she gets carsick for goodness sake leave her at home! Getting the smell out is something I wouldn't attempt. You will be a lot more confident with your car afterwards especially when you see how easily it can swap ends and how to properly counter it...

This is advanced training - with a bit of hooning thrown in...
