Whoa, AE86 in GTA4

[firehawk]

I picked up Grand Theft Auto 4 for PS3 today and after playing for a while, stole this beautiful rear wheel drive Karin Futo with a 20-valve engine. Look familiar?

Sorry for the blurry photos - I'm projecting the image to my living room wall and took photos of it.

Edit: of course, I crashed it after just a while and blew off the bonnet. And what do you know - there's a 20v silvertop underneath it!

OMG are you serious, i'll have to play till i get this car

[banpei]

LOL
Want to play it as well, but no PS3 or Xbox 360...So I have to depend on colleagues then.

BTW: Levins never reached Liberty City IRL.

Sweet

I got to get that game as fast as possible. To bad there is no AE86 in GT5 Prolouge. I sure hope there is when the final game arrives. GT4 had both levin and trueno

yeah, i saw it as soon as i got the game. i was really amazed. there are more car lookalikes though.

[kungfumaster]

LOL, is it fast ???

I just realized the 20v is placed longitudinal...

In GTA Vice City stories (on PSP) most rwd cars have engines placed transverse... Even the Testarossa lookalike featured a transverse engine in the front.

its a really cool car in the game, has an sr20 with throttle bodies, (crashed it abit to find out lol)

its more of a touge car in the game, doesnt drift amazing, but its still amazing fun

[banpei]

sr20 with 20 valves?

There is actually an GT version of the Futo. It has a carbon fibre bonnet, an small black spoiler, an GT badge on the grille, the drivers seat has been swapped with a bucket one, the passanger seat is from BRIDE(i dont know if it is like that on the original one), but the word BRIDE is changed to DRIFT, and theres an added tachometer in the gauges area.
It doesnt say futo GT when you sit in it but you can see the difference.
