GT Coupe 4A-GEU (JP)

AE86 · 1986–1987RWD

The late Japanese GT coupe is the base two-door grade, with the 4A-GEU twin-cam at 130 PS and 149 Nm and rear drive. This version carries the changes of the 1985 update, which brought new bumpers, tail lights and alloy wheels. An automatic was offered on the later GT and GT Apex, though this car has the manual.

STORY

The AE86 was built from 1983 to 1987 as the rear-drive Corolla Levin, with fixed headlights, and the Sprinter Trueno, with pop-up lamps. Both used the 1.6 litre twin-cam 4A-GE. The Japanese version was rated 130 PS gross (JIS), the European version about 124 PS (DIN net) and the North American 4A-GEC 112 hp (SAE net). Keiichi Tsuchiya helped make drifting known with the car, and the manga Initial D, which began in 1995, put the Trueno at its centre. Toyota's 2012 86 coupe took its name from it.
