Toyota Corolla AE86 Drag Car Runs 8s on Dragstrip
Though the production car will almost certainly bear a different name, the Toyota FT-86 pays big homage to the rear-drive Corolla AE-86. These Corollas are regularly spotted at drift and autocross events, but this drag car is the most interesting one we've ordered eyes on in a while.
This car apparently started with the 2JZGTE 3.0-liter, twin-turbocharged inline-6 from the Supra, but has reportedly been modified to deliver about 800 horsepower — 80 of which come courtesy of a nitrous shot. Now it's said to be capable of running a quarter-mile in the 8s.
Speedhunters is running a room of the images originally posted on the Spanish-language blog, Boostiao, and either site is worth checking if you want to see more photos.
