Hi gurus, been a while since I posted here.!!! Don't have time plus life matters etc ;D, hope you understand. Also wish every1 in this forum a healthy and happier new year! =DD So what I came to ask here is this if somebody knows about it in the first place ee =)............A Toyota Corolla AE86 had the nickname hachi - roku..........Now I am interested to know if a nickname to the Toyota Starlet EP80 was also given? Any hep, would be highly appreciated! Many thanks in advance :cheers:
hachiroku means 86 in japanese. It was an amazingly successful racecar, and street tuner which gained huge amounts of popularity with car enthusiasts. The starlet AFAIK was never really used much in racing, never had much popularity and definitely not nearly as much as the 86. example of a tuned hachiroku;
this, my friends, is a real man car http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MGYGSqGz3gM&feature=fvst AE86 vs R34 skyline "your ride's too big for touge moron, take it back to the farm " :banana: (IRL Drift King at the wheel ^^)
