I think the levin and truenos saw the same production years. between 85-87. They were both availabe as coupes or hatchbacks.Originally posted by BumpinTalon
That is the exact motor that is in the Initial D AE86 ... the anime is picture-perfect to real life. Now, what I want to know is, what was around first -- this car, or Tak's?

20V Distributor doesnt clear the firewall, our corolla we have at the shop here had to do some big modification to the firewall for his 20V to clear
With all the time and money you would think they would cut the firewall and resculpt it to fit properly. Make it look like it was supposed to fit.

Ive got the 30 minute buildup videoof this car its pretty incredible what they do to it. They take it out on the streets afterwards...its unreal. Almost every component in the engine was replaced with something aftermarket, mainly TRD Japan$$$$

"A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. The traitor is the plague.”

Iida Akira's car was built up around '98-'99, whereas Initial D seems to have debuted about 2001-'02. (Going by when the UofC anime club started playing it, that sounds about right.)Originally posted by ~$eanith~

So Takumi's highly tweaked AE86 would appear to be based, at least in part, on the Iida car.

Initial D came out in 98.

The manga...not the arcade.

I guess in initial d it was awhile before he got his new engine put in, so i'm thinking it was based on Iida's car?Originally posted by blinkme_210

My bad - never really paid attention to the manga. (Altho I was talking about the anime, not the game.)

those are Advan Neova tiresOriginally posted by Ferio_vti
I was wondering the same thing...
Advan debut them at the D1 grand prix
from what i read in young magazine, Shigeno Shuichi has a car very similar to what takumi is driving in the anime/manga.
it's supposively tricked out and has a 11,000rpm redline as well

I seem to remember a shigeno tuned 86 in gran turismo 3. It looked remarkably like Takumi's 86, even with the black CF hood. If I had to guess I would say that the shigeno car is the car the anime/manga is based on. It sounds like the Shigeno car and the Iida car are remarkably similar, the major difference being that one is a trueno and the other a levin. Old throwbacks to the Atlantic series race cars. I wish I had one...
