AE86... WTF?

124 HP, 7500RPM, 950kg, RWD, LSD, 50:50 WR, Oil cooler ... still wondering?:)

- 124HP ... is it much?
Not much, but enough;). Talking bout 950kg car it compares to 200HP mid-class limo;). The car participates often stock in rallyes.

- 7500 RPM ... isn't this normal?
No it isn't. This is a sports engine, optimized for responsiveness and high revs. Usual (sports) engines die at 6500 RPM.
(Anyway computer limited to 7500 - more than 8500 without big torque drop possible.)

- 950kg - so what?
The power is not everithing;). Thans to low weight & 50:50 weight ratio extremely low inertia and high corner speeds.

- RWD (Rear Wheel Drive) = FUN NON-STOP! Very predictable road stacking car. And classic drifter;)!

- LSD (Limited Slip Differential = Sperrdifferential) = RWD²;)

- Oil cooler - why?
No it is not standart:). And yes it is neccessery. Expecially for rallyes;).

P.S. Still doubting?:)
There is a simple reason - it is a classic;).
