hrm, well this SS 86 does not rev to 11,000, even on full everything it hits a rev limiter at hrm, 10,100-10,200 still, it gets the power, and is a really fun and good car to drive.

My mistake... Shigeno is not the drift king. However, I dont think it would be incorrect to say he is in the drift scene. As for the car in GT3 and 4 I have read in quite a few places that it is modeled off of Shigeno's real car. They could be wrong though. As for the rev limit that could have just been a decision by Polyphony Digital to limit it, or perhaps the show is a little exagerated... who knows? As for a real life super hachi-roku, this is worth checking out: http://www.club4ag.com/faq%20and%20tech_pages/IIda%20AE86%20project.htm . Dont know if it has been posted on these boards before (67 pages is a lot to go through) so i apologize if it is a repost.

Yeah I read that before, Iida Akira's AE86 is the god of all 86s, even the drift king himself doesnt have a 86 like that (thought he could easily get one if he wanted). Over $100,000 was spent on it, and thats not including the special engine which has been locked at only 9000 rpm for realibility reasons. Anyway anyone intrested should read that article.
