The Turbo II can be driven as a daily driver, rain, snow, sleet, hail.
There are guys that have the conversion available, but for the most part I would say you can pick up a J Spec engine/trans and do the install. Finding a ecu, harness, and rear assembly may be a bit of a problem, but they are around, unless you go with a standalone unit.
Depending on what you want to do with the TII, many, many dollars can be spent.
If your not overly familiar with the conversion, best to buy a TII if you can locate one.
If the 86 has the 4 bolt wheels, you'd probably want to do a conversion on that also.
My suggestion is to get the '86, fix it up and enjoy the car. After a period of time, and when you become more familiar with the conversion, then make up your mind.
