you have obviously been living under a rock for the last few years, its the fensport corolla, they also built a 6th gen celica with the same type of setup.

Blimmin' heck - those are some pretty serious mods! Not my sort of cars, but you can't deny numbers like that.

I'd like to see that Corolla racing some Lambo/Fez/Porsche fodder just for the most bizarre video since *insert vogue meme*.

This car was on my old max power dvd i briefly watched before binning.... very fast, it raced a aston martin along a runway.... 1/2 mile possibly and won by a long way.

hasnt this car been on fifth gear as well with a Sierra Cosworth with about 700bhp?
It was when Tiff bought a Lotus Esprit turbo and was trying to turn it into a 200mph+ car for about 30-40 grand.
I think on fifth gear it did or got damn close to 200mph, st pants quick car right there...

Didn't the clutch give out after slaughtering a Skyline at Redline's ten of the best 2002? Legendary car. Perfect for the school run. smile
