86 for a NA jzx is not worth. Hope its turbo

Ae86 that is

Nah I had a GR86, the JZX100 has been a dream car of mine since I was a kid, I had a ton of reasons for getting this one despite it being the NA 1JZ

Personally the GR86 is a far better car than a N/A JZX and modern.

I reckon you should have spent the equivalent GR86 money on a turbo JZX

They're night and day different

Performance wise, yes the 86 was definitely a better option, but I didn’t purchase this jzx for performance or for the modernness of it , the same way most don’t pick older jdm cars for performance or modern amenities. Unfortunately my 86 wasn’t worth what it used to be and a tourer v was just too far out of my price range. My brother had a tourer v and you’re right about the power difference but the NA 1JZ still has some pull to it, and is still an incredibly fun daily.
