Totally robbed off Driftworks,
Mental,
Wouldnt be a fan of this kind of thing, but I have recently dabled with "The Dark Side",,, so I am tarnished....
The car was built in Cyprus by C.Christou Racing, not only they swapped an RB26 in a Corolla, but an s14 rear subframe and used a 5 speed gearbox. They didn't cut the floor but they had to extend the front and added an R34 front end too

stupid build things like this, an engine with that kind of power is insane in a car like that.

the rear end is s14 so no hicas on that I guess.

But I thought the S13, S14 and S15 had hicas as option in Japan... Wink
Anyway, this is insane! Not only did they swap a RB26, but also they chose the RB26DETT! That's "officially" 280HP in stock form! Imagine what this tuned version does! Huh Yummie! Yummie!

I hope the R34 front is only a joke! Banging head

With a after market exhaust and clutch, boost controller and ECU change my R32GTR put out 400bhp. It ran a 12sec quarter mile and 0 to 60 in 3.7 seconds. I expect a RB26 powered AE86 with drag tyres fitted to be quicker.
