bill is right but to someone just getting in to one the differences dont matter at all and prob wont even be noticable.
i have a 16v 4age if u need it.
if u have an sr5, u have the 4ac single cam, carbed motor. making like 80hp to the crank.like 60 to the wheels. correct me if i am wrong mark or bill
u dont have an lsd, or the rear disk brakes either.
point being it will be a fun car to get started with, but it will be expensive to catch up to at least gts specs. it'll be hard to drift in this condition too. dont get me wrong it is completely possible but alot harder than learning with a 240 or sumthing like that
but corollas are the best if u put the time into it you will love it.

Ae86 coupe is 60 lbs lighter than the hatch and the body is stiffer because of less open area in the rear. And they look better. I'd say go for it!

well i got the perfict car for you.scince you cant drive yet. you could work on it till u can. and lemme tell ya. it needs all the work it can get,its a 84 hatch ae86 corolla. ubt its sr5. so it needs to all be converted if you were lookin for the gts at least. its gutted. but i still have all the parts.has its normal rust spots. motor runs decent.sokes like a bitch.i can let it go for under a hundred. way under.ha
Marksaccord has a Hatch prepped and ready for paint. Hes taken a lot of time to prep it, he even has a body kit for it too. If the hatch was done right it would be pretty fucking mean... I think it has all you need on it already. Just needs an engine. Ask him what he wants for it. ~ Mike

I've had mine converted over. I didn't want the hatch just because It was so popular. Everyone is right on the differences. My rear end, brakes, and sus is changed over. I just have to change the tank and lines. But if you have some bigger plans in mind, buying an SR-5 doesn't really kill you since you'll be upgrading those pieces anyway.
I bought mine with the intention of stuffing a KA24 in it and then turboing that. So the engine issue really didn't matter since I will loom my own harness and do my wiring. The car is great though stock, although the engine is so anemic it's not even funny. It's a far cry from my old blacktop 240, but that's the price for change.
Buy the car if you like it, but know it will take work to make it a competent drift machine. Good luck.
