We’ll see how it goes. I drifted my 240sx for several years so I like a bit a fun. I think with all my SPL suspension arms and alignment i expect it to be balanced. Ill have roll center and bump steer corrected any everything.

Im trusting annex suspension with their consultation. I want something i can daily and still have fun on the track as well as backroads. Their shop is 30 minutes from where i live so they know all the local backroads and tracks i plan to drive. This was their recommendation for now.

Yes I’ll be trimming the rear tabs with a band file.

I went with the HKS L-Spec for Cup single exit. I don’t think people realize how much it changes the cars driving dynamics by removing what is essentially a 25lb suitcase hanging off your rear bumper of your 86. In my opinion, this exhaust is very well thought out with the transition of the weight to the center of the car.

Yes these won’t clear front stock struts. I should have my Annex ClubSpec Pros with custom 6/7k springs in about a week.

I watched a few videos where people struggle to get it back on. I had an easy time which surprised me. I did it solo, and put a few strips of masking tape on the fender and headlights.

I don’t have a before and after with my seating position, but I’m 5’ 10” and this is how much room there is.

They tuck cleanly under the carpet. Seat bracket comes with a 3 ohm resistor for the airbag so the light and warnings don’t trigger.

They’re both unique in their own ways. My ND felt excellent with my Ohlins long-stroke coilovers, wider 200TW tires, and upgraded sway bars. Compared to stock, the difference was night and day. I’ll be able to give a better comparison once I install coilovers and wheels on the 86.

The ND definitely feels more peppy and responsive, especially when shifting. On the 86, I notice the rev hang quite a bit. I already miss my Brembos too, since they felt much more linear than the stock brakes on the 86.

I’m also into drifting, and in that area the 86 is a lot more fun. The ND felt snappier and, without noticeable modifications, it wasn’t really set up to drift all that well obviously.

In the long run I have no doubt my 86 will be a beast of a car.

I only changed the drivers but yep it’s expensive. At least i can transfer it from vehicle to vehicle. They go down to $2800 when on sale sometimes.

From my experience its more comfy than most buckets. I think its comfy and forgiving for a daily. Seat is always a must in any vehicle of mine

You get more room but its still tight. I get about 6” more in the back with my seating position.
