 Don't do that, i want your wheels and engine!  As for the weight of AE86, 950kg for the coupe, think the hatch about 20kg more, thats fully loaded with the interior.  With a serious diet i think 700kgs would easily be achievable.  As for power there are lots of options,  a common engine conversions is 2.0 3S-GE from a MR2 non turbo or lexus/altezza IS200. Personally i would leave the 4AGE. With the right knowledge and money you can make them rev to that magic 10,000rpm

  with about 200bhp+ in extreme examples i've see 220bhp. So stripped out and tuned to the extreme thats a power to weight ratio of 285bhp per tonne and a 06 BMW M3 is about 220 bhp per tonne. I think you should get one, if you don't like it just put it in a garage for a 6 months and it will of doubled in value
