Delivery vehicles don't come any better than this! At first Takumi didn't realize how special this 'old Toyota' could be, but we're sure you already do. The black and white 'Panda' Toyota Trueno GT-APEX originally owned by Bunta became known as The White Ghost of Akina, or more simply as the Eight-Six (Hachi-Roku). Takumi's journey from unwitting delivery driver to late-night touge racer is already well known, so on to the car itself.
After Takumi blew the original 1.6L engine in a battle with Kyoichi Sudo, it was replaced with a 20 valve Silvertop 4A-GEU (carbureted with dry sump oiling system) that Bunta had sourced. This engine was originally from a TRD Group A AE101 which had 240HP and revved up to 11,000RPM. Other notable modifications include RS Watanabe eight spoke 15x7 F8-Type wheels, TRD racing seats with Takata 4-point harnesses, and TRD carbon fiber hood with carbon fiber headlights. As a complete package, its one hell of a way to deliver tofu.
Complete with opening doors, hood and trunk, as well as working lights, this is the best Initial D AE86 model you'll be able to find!
We've also got a wide range of Initial D t-shirts for all the real Initial D fans 😁.
