It was an AE86 Foolio. Maybe you should watch the moviej_garcia said:Corolla GTS = not RWD (current gen). THAT is why it was parked...

Yeah I saw that. Although the mustang would have been better with a domestic V8, a skyline motor is no slouch.Haoleb said:I saw the dvd the other night, Im not sure which was worse about it. The motor they stuck into the mustang, or the NISSAN emblem they stuck to the back of it. Its just WRONG to see a nice mustang like that, only to hear it going Baddbdaba daaaaaaaaa Weeeeeeeeee!!!!
Did anyone else notice the tabasco bottle flying in the air (slow mo of couse) when the hick was rolling in his first car. Talk about product placement.![]()

the tech that was driving really stomped it.
a truly wild "pin your shoulders to the seat" ride
ruined a perfectly good pair of underwear
Yes, it still had the owner manual from Ford explaining the differences. I just thought that the Police[CHP] will modify a few things on their own. Then again you can't outrun the helicopter, so they don't have to be that fast.Matt34 said:They remove the fuel cutoff(speed limiter) but other than a few electronic upgrades for the extra lights/radios and a beefier suspension they are stock....and slow.

??? I think you are confused. These cars have an extremely low curb weight and very solid motors that only take a little tweaking to make some very good numbers. They have a solid chassis and a good f/r weight balance that makes them very good for any kind of driving. Yes, they can be found cheap, which makes them great for building a cheap track car, but nice ones can still pull down quite a bit of cash. The fact that they are popular means there is still good aftermarket support for them too. There's a REASON why cars like this are STILL poplular....Datsun 510, BMW 2002, S13 240SX, 1.8L Miatas....dvyi83 said:86's are pretty weak, and very slow, and not that cool. very ugly. only reason they are so popular is cause they are cheap and easy to drift. and of course.. initial d.
no one that is any good at drifting, or has any money buys an 86 anymore.
Slow? Weak? So you've driven one right? A bone stock GTS had me pinned in the seat going through 3 gears.dvyi83 said:86's are pretty weak, and very slow, and not that cool. very ugly. only reason they are so popular is cause they are cheap and easy to drift. and of course.. initial d.

You can hitch up to the back of my Dodge anytime and give it your best shotClint DeBoer said:I'll hook any one of you up to my Jeep Liberty's tow hitch and see if I can't pull you backwards while you give it all you got... lol.
