Very dependable.
These two statements made me laugh. AE86's are only very dependable if you spend the time to make them so. I can't tell you how many hours I spent getting my car ready for an event. I know before the event in Memphis (2007) I spent 3 weeks before the event getting the car in order (along with getting Mike and Marlow's cars). Changed nearly every fluid before event (coolant was usually left alone, but I only ran distilled water), replaced front wheel bearings a few times, fixed leaks before they become a problem, etc. There isn't may bolts I haven't turned on an AE86. The only part I can say I haven't seen the inside of is the transmission and I was about to do that before I installed a 20v.
and dont get him started on bleeding brakes

Why do you always have to bring up bad memories? Can't you just let those die!
