my v8 ae86 out for test drive

[jcoupe]

love the v8 power, 1st gear ws no use had to start off in 2nd

 

[Stavros]

That is fucking awesome!

Light car + Light V8 = Fun times!

I'm hoping/expecting my FC to weigh fuck all, AE86 weight, so hopefully the 1UZ in mine will be just as much fun!

 

[jcoupe]

yeah its the torque is unbelievable, you fire it another gear expectiting it to die and it just seems to want to bash the limiter happy times

 

[Stavros]

Nice big spread of torque from low to high revs.
I hope the big cams I have don't make it too peaky and ruin it lol.

 

[JMorton]

That looks like fantastic fun

 

[crazyae86]

its more fun with v8

 

[DORI STYLE]

That look mental

 

[1N5_N15]

[Dantagonist]

Nauuuuughty.

 

[jcoupe]

it just feels so rude and wrong but so right

 

[jacksheps]

Didn't want those tyres then lol sounds good! Any other vids of it driving?

 

[t3nhp]

Sounds and looks great, always liked the 1uz but never having driven one I assumed they were a bit lazy, clearly not!!

 

[kam]

Sweet. Don't think I'd ever use 1st gear with a decent V8, no point really!

 

[crazyae86]

more vid from beast ??

 

[MrBaron]

[jcoupe]

[jcoupe]

[Dantagonist]
