not on this forum....thats the really annoying thing. You ask a question and 1st thing someone says is do a search. have you perhaps given some thought to the fact that most people would actually search and if they cant find the info then post a question...sounds logical doesnt it
i've searched and found nothing relevant....if anyone cares to point me in the right direction it'd be appreciated. The only info i could find was gt apex vs gtv....is that the same as kouki vs zenki

well not quite.....
GTV vs GT APEX is the difference between the mid range and upper range model..
zenki vs kouki is the difference between the revisions..
zenki(83-84).
kouki (05-87).
mechanically, not much difference. (small revision to the motor).
the kouki also has a different LSD center.
front bumper bar and trimmings got replaced (both levin and trueno). same with the tail lights.
interior is different color and styling.
All aus specs look like a zenki levin SR.
takumi drives a GT Apex trueno.
Tsuchia drives a kouki trueno.
thats just to get the ball rolling.
rock on.

ALSO....
in japan... ae86s come under two names... either the
SPRINTER TRUENO or
COROLLA LEVIN.
in australia.. there is only one kind of ae86, so they are all called sprinters (simply cause of their trueno tail lights).
for aus spec vehicles, kouki vs zenki does not apply.

Hey Shcao,
Is the aus-spec sprinter tail lights exactly the same a sthe truenos besides the redline and whiteline ones?
And would a JDM centrepiece that has the numberplate lights fit between the aus-spec tail lights without a problem, and dare the lights wide enough to fit standard NSW yellow num plates?
