Re: AE86 drift mode
Ah, now comes the fun part; sanding.
 I like the look you're getting at here. I really enjoy watching 86s being built.

Re: AE86 drift mode
I guess my question should be what specific putty? Since the tamiya putties have been discontinued I have never found anything that matches it terms of ease of application and shaping/sanding. I've since went back to using Testor's and Elmer's wood filler but I'm still not satisfied. I see that you're in California so I was hoping you had a better solution that I could find locally.
PS I'm on the 4AG boards as well.

Re: AE86 drift mode
ok, this doesn't look like much of an update. but sanding the body to get it smooth for paint is a pain. plus cold weather doesn't help either for getting ready for painting.
it actually sits the way it's suppose to sit. it's on axles and front suspension. stripped the chrome off of the wheels and rear calipers. hope to get it done soon. looks like better weather here in so cali.       interior color  exterior color

I do have some questions for you. 1. where did you find your wheels/tires? 2. where did you find your intercooler? 3. what forum is this build from? thank you for your help!
