Anyone seen the Sept issue of Super Street with the 1UZ V8 in a AE86 Sprinter??

I only got to see the article but It looks Very Very Sweeeeeeet... I will get a chance to read about the car maybe Monday but it is very nicely done it looks like...

I have heard of guys doing the swap of course but never actually seen an Artical written about the swap in a Magazine...

That swap has always been a secret dream of mine like for many others I would think, but to see it written about in a magazine is just the Best Thing Ever!!!

not the first v8 into one. Guy's dad that I worked with had done it years ago. Said it burned out alot of the time

rx7's are another one that people like to take and shove v8's into.

I know it has been done many times before but I have personally never seen a Magazine do an artical about it and also Not to say there has never been an artical written before just I never have seen one. I like in the photos how tastefully done it was. That is what I would want as well. Of course this was done to an automatic Corolla using the 1UZ's Auto. I am quite sure it would spin out rather easily but it sure would be something different to learn to drive...
