Have an 86? Want to drive fast?
You're in the right place.
In 4 years, I've broken almost every single part of this car - the engine, the transmission, the steering rack, the brakes, the suspension. Uncountable sets of tires. I've done a lot of dumb, expensive stuff, but I've also won TTs, set records and generally gotten pretty good at driving.
I was tired of how inaccessible good information was online, so I built this website to help other Toyobaru owners get up to speed the easy way. No AI content, no paywalls, no ads, no dropshipped merch, no paid courses. Just sauce.
