LFB= Left Foot Braking. It is when you accelerate with the right foot, and use the left foot on the brake gently, which stops understeer, and gives you some oversteer when cornering. A bit like using the handbrake, but way more controllable. Though I don't know much about it, as I haven't driven much of FWD cars. If you want to know more, ask in one of the other forums.
@Hoon: I just bought a JA starion for a bit under $5000, with only 147000km's on it. Fun car to drive, though the JB might be a better get as it has a LSD (would be very useful in the wet and dirt). Anyway, it has leather interior, power windows, AC, much stiffer (and better) suspension than my old RA60, 4 wheel disc brakes. Easy to drive below the turbo if you want, and if you need more power and torque, there's plenty above 3k rpm. There's a few around for around $4000. One thing to keep in mind is that they are expensive for parts. From what I've seen, they seem to have WAYY less rust than the celica's and supra's of that age.
If you go to www.starion.cjb.net there's a few in the FOR SALE section of the forums (not the for sale section on the main site). I got reply's from 3 of the people there, and they sent me pics, and some of the cars looked very good.
