How can Truenos suck if they are identical to Levins... :roll: Same engine, gearbox, drivetrain etc... c'mon, what's the point :?

By the way I do not own either types.

I voted Levin, they're sexy. I am not biased, I just think that Levin's are soooooooooooooo hot. I heard when girls get in my Levin they have instant orgasms. P.S. girls, PM me for a ride :twisted:

well i thought it was just the truenos that had the 4age engine in it, guess im wrong, so wat is the difference between them? everywhere i look on here it always turns to a little bitchfight over what is better, present the proper facts about them, the levins ive seen have all been 1500cc????

The front and rear ends are kinda different, but thats it. Some people just don't like the look of the trueno as much :?

they are both exactly the same, apart from the nose
there were two sub models for the old skoolers the low spec AE85 and the sporty AE86
AE85= k-series driveline, 1500 sohc, low spec
AE86= T-series driveline, 4age 1600 dohc, higher spec (unless gtv then lowspec)
ae85's and ae86's were available in either the levin or trueno shape
they are exactly the same thing, but anyone in the know :wink: (im talking out my arse) would say the levin in far better and truenos are for butt monkeys

They are so many kits, wings, mags, and so many different colours I reckon they can both look awesome OR crap.

I personally like the ae101 levin over the trueno coz the trueno bonnet comes right down to the bumper between the lights.
86 and 111, I like both of them! :)

Well for me it really depends on the model,

if we talking AE85/6 then I say Trueno

if we talking AE101 or AE111 then I say Levin.

If we talking AE92 i dont give a shit as both are butt ugly IMO

The engines you can get

Postby BZG820 » Fri Feb 20, 2004 9:36 am

I don't know about the pre-AE101 (before '92?) Levins and Truenos, but here are the engine options for the later models:

pre-'95:

S = 5A-FE (gutless 1500)
SJ = 4A-FE (mediocre 1600)
GT APEX = 4A-GE silvertop (quick, revvy)
GTZ = 4A-GZE (quick, smooth)

95+:

FZ = 5A-FE, with the old AE-101 shape
XZ = 4A-FE, AE111
BZ-G/BZ-R/BZ-V = 4A-GE blacktop, AE111

Both Levins ("Corolla Levin") and Truenos ("Sprinter Trueno") come in all these versions.
