But moemoe was worried about damaging his s13, wouldn't it be worse to smash a JDM ae86? I think it would.
Q) Which is easier to get parts for, JDM 86 or S13?
Q) Which costs you less to modify NA or Turbo?
AE86Drift is right saying the 86 is a mad car to drift, but its totally different to drifting a high power car in terms of technique and skill required, need i say FUN x 100.
MoeMoe, if you really are dead set on an ae86, find a JDM one for sure. But if its money your worried about I would find an import S13 and not register it like EVOSTi says, or buy a cheap aus spec, lock the diff and wang a turbo on the 4ac (not recommended haha)
