just returned from rally japan. walked around the service park and noticed a replica group b 4wd starion parked. on the demountable unit where official movie posters with this website. http://specialstage.net/ check it out. they drove it over the hump at the official rally start ceremony before the wrc cars where introduced.

Good find and good to see it up there with today's supercars (in the trailer at least).
I think the shovel-nose is starting to look less weird.
Now can you tell us what they are saying in English?

and someone on another site said

The story is (I think) about an old rally driver who found a street legal Group A Starion and drives it around mountain passes. The story is fairly similar to Wangan Midnight, especially the relation between Akio and his Z. Special Stage revolves around rallying instead of highway racing

looks interesting

Nice :) this will bum up the price of Starion he he :)
But as I am only Croatian driver of Starion in Croatia, this will be fun :)
When Tokyo Drift was popular, my old Toyota Corolla Ae86 gti was also very popular hehe :)

There was some footage of the movie and the Starion in promo mode durung the WRC Japan coverage on SBS today. I'll have it on DVD if anyone gets desperate (but no way to get it onto the interwebs).

It's based off of that manga/comic someone posted up a little while ago, got the pic at home somewhere. And apparently the comic was based off of a real rally driver...

That's NOT a replica , it's the ex 555 Racing Group B car lol . I've been in that car .

If he said it was a narrow body with a kit , of course it was . That's how the Group 'b' cars were made . The Widebody road car was made 2 years later .
