    Took her camping and she liked it. She saw Zachs trailer though and wants one. I'm fine with that.

    Shadows and a phone screen made the rear tires look smaller for a second.

    8 wraps. They honestly handle weight pretty well

    Really? My experience is opposite with LC coils. How much rear weight in that pic? I was going to go to ome 861s when I add the tire carrier.

    Only ever driven the FRS, but it’s the same car.

    Very fun! The Lexus dealer in Bev Hills just got a guy who traded in his 17 with 3k on it for a 2018 because he wanted the spoiler on the back

    Mine have held weight just fine when the back is loaded. Almost wish they sagged a little more. I was worried about adding 861s when I go to a swingout but I don't think I will. I'm pretty rakey right now and wouldn't mind a little less.

    Never driven one but know a few people who own them. They all say they're really fun and easy to get sideways.

    My brother just bought a new Civic and that thing's pretty comfy. He got the Touring package so nothing sporty but the MPGs are nice and so is the dependability. Kind of want something like that but during school, I don't drive but 50 miles/week unless I take a little road trip in which I'm taking the 4Runner regardless.

    Never knew they had a turbo until the other week. He certainly doesn't drive it like it has one either.

    The problem with me getting an 86 would be I'd want to do shit to it. And that's not the point of me having a DD haha. I'd need something like a civic, non SI, to keep stock and reliable

    The 86 platform kicks ass. I drove a friend's BR-Z for a few minutes and I autocross with a bunch of them. The never-ending modifications that exist do make it hard to not go crazy...but with a few little things (intake/exhaust/tune, wheels/tires, sway bars) it's just about perfect without going forced induction.

    Honda's making a damn good car these days too. The Civic is shockingly nice, and the Si is great. Should run forever too. The Sport is a good compromise between a N/A lower-trim Civic and the Si.

    Rear drawer setup with tools, 2 spare cvs, my spare tire is 110 pounds alone.

    @LTDSC i do need to crank the front, but I need to get some new body mounts first. I think they’re sagging
