--- Quote ---For AE86, you have to look around in the historic showroom for a used one.  I have one, but I don't know how to get it to drift.  The settings I had in gt3 don't work now, so hard to get the tail loose in corners.

They've got the trueno and leven originals, and then they have a special edition that popped up and I bought on September 23rd (first year) in the used lot... It is a Sprinter Trueno GT- Apex S. Shigeno Ver.  Made in 2000 apperantly... 825kg (stock one is 940kg) and I guess 190hp (dirty oil) 210 (after oil change), don't know if it is at crank or wheels, but it could be very comparible to the AE86 we know and love... Same design as the new one, carbon headlights, carbon hood, same rims, same paint...

And from comparing pics... Im gonna say that Bunta's subaru is the 98 22b STI... Or a 99 Type R version 6.  more similar fenders and same rims....  Go figure..


Anyways, I got this forum membership so I could thank LE for doing their subs... They are who got me hooked on ID and they have quality second to none, thank you for supplying us with this free gift/service.

CooBlue you were close on the make and model of Bunta's WRX.. Its the 98 type R version 5.  As for the Shigeno tuned Trueno, Shuuichi Shigeno oversees the technical aspects of the show.  He is a drift king (visible in season 1 when the Akina Speedstars are watching TV at the gas station) and he also tunes all kinds of 86's.  Takumi's 86 is based almost entirely on Shigeno's real life drift car.  The engine is also completely real (and does rev to 11,000 rpm) its from the Atlantic series race cars of the early 90's.  Don't know if anyone really cared to have all that information... but ah well.... keep up the great work L-E you guys are superb and I only download your subs.  Well worth the wait.

uhh... from my understanding, Shigeno is a motorbike fan/rider and he's not as big into cars.  His passion is two wheels and doesn't do much with four.
