Blue
When Chris got her, she was in really bad shape. Her rear quarters were banged up from the previous owner hittin guardrails and the motor blew it's head gasket a few days after buying it. This car was a turd, painted a nasty puke green, and was dinged up pretty bad, but Chris was stoked to be back on Okinawa and buying another 86. So he banged out the panels, smoothed her out, shaved the head and slapped the motor back together and she ran like a beast. She was the one, I fell in love with old Blue. Eventually we made her turbo and enjoyed her some more, but eventually rust got to her frame and firewall and she had to be put to sleep. I stripped her down, chopped up her frame and put her frame pieces in the ocean off of Okinawa. I didn't want her to rot in a junkyard or be recycled into a soupcan.
The White Girl AE86 Trueno
I saw this car sitting in a lot while I was driving to work. After a few days of
passin by it, I stopped by and looked at it. The car looked great and was only
$1900. I looked over the car and saw it was in decent shape. I asked the owner
if anybody had looked at the car and the owner said "just a bunch of high school
kids", so I gave him $500 and after a trip to the ATM I got him the rest. I had
seen too many Y-plate 86's get crashed up shortly after purchase, I wasn't going
to let some dipshit ruin her. I picked her up a few days later with my boy Kaze.
Driving off the lot and hittin the gas we noticed that it was underpowered, so I
advanced the timing a bit and it was a little better, but not near enough to
have fun so we pulled the head when we got home, I ported the head and had the
head shaved 1.2mm and slapped on a .5mm gasket along with some 264/272 cams.
Also added TRD short strokes, coilovers, front lip, seat, TRD F/R sway bars, 9mm
FET wires, header, new plugs, negacambs, Cusco diff, Trust exhaust, P Fcon,
testpipe, and a few other things

The Battle Brand 86
The BB86 started of as a Garage Cartis drift car. She had a 4ag turbo motor in her with a tiny stock SR turbine. He body had been twisted by the previous driver rolling her. When we saw her in a drift comp Chris drove in, the previous owner of this car once again crashed her pretty bad. I felt bad for the car, cause that Garage Cartis driver couldn't drive for shit and was killing her. Well, a couple of months later my Hinga brother Jay says I bought another 86. I went at looked at it and it was this twisted 86 that Cartis had given up as junk and sold to Jay cheap. Jay had it stored at his fathers house under a tree that was killing the paint. The paint was moldy and the body was falling apart, so we towed her to my house. Jay had already pulled the janky ass turbo motor and threw in a blacktop AE111 4ag. I got started on the body work. Since this car had been rolled, there was some serious body work that need to be done, so we decided to fix the minor rust, leave the dents (adds character), and paint her. I pulled off her ugly Run Free fenders and hung a different Levin front end on her, the first time Chris painted her, he painted her like a police car, which looked funny, shortly after Chris painted her Hinga Blue and started driving her in comps
