AE86 (Trueno).

AKA the corolla GT.AE86is the engine type-One of the Jap drifters favorites.Pretty rare now here as they tend to rust out esp under rear end.Also now the drifting fraternity have made them 'flavor of the month' ppl are asking silly prices for rust buckets.A couple og likely lads were asking £1000 for an old,sound but tatty one locally recently.Best buy would be one owned for years by an old gaffer who just took it out of the garage to go to the library in.
There was a buying guide/info a couple of months ago in Japanese Performance Cars mag-(can scan it if you want).

Hahaha!
Just looking for a cheapo car really!
But would probably take it drifting.
A mate recently sold his FD and bought an FC which has been seriously tweaked - a jap import that's setup for drifting. It's an impressive motor. Very tempted to get something like that for track and keep the FD for road use. Can't justify 2 expensive rotaries though!

PS you can pick up an FC for < 4k and it'll be very fast. You can probaly pick up a turbo 2 cabrio fo 4-4.5k...
