What kind of Toyotas are they??? The rear shots make me think it's an AE82 Rolla cause of the lights... But the front shots with the circle lights??? Hmmm...

From what i have heard it is very hard to convert the 4E-FTE to RWD (which is the real fun part of these cars). If it is possible it would certainly help keep the weight down and maintain the handling balance. Had to shift my 3T-GTEU about 3 inches through the firewall to help balance the extra weight, especially with a W55 hanging off the back.
The EP70 would probably be a better candidate for this conversion, came with the E series motor standard and I believe it is lighter than the later EP80's and EP90's.

Now I see the legend of the Starlet. I've got a pic of one in the same MOTOR mag as the AE86 (nov '83) and w/ Sprinter clover leaf wheels and it looks... bad. It was annoucing the new shipment of the starlets to NZ. I think the wheels making it look really crap.
Pity we never did get them, they do seem to have a huge rally following overseas...oh well, we did get the AE86 by some miracal cough! bathurst! cough! cough!

I linked pics from one of our domestic rally web pages. They are unaltered - no Photoshop magic.
Here are more samples on hard cornering hazards to further assure pics being unaltered.

i think those cars have a camber problem, they seem to be leaning to one side? or was it just that the angles are funny

Maybe the drivers were just real fat?!
I wonder how that last one went?
