Not sure I like the new front end treatment on the 16s.

Looks like the FRS took the Kylie Jenner Challenge

I know it's just speculation, but it doesn't sound too far off when compared to other reports about the 86 refresh. I wouldn't be surprised if this article has more truth than fiction.

continuecrushing · 05-12-2015, 06:39 PM

wait, so does it come with a turbo or not.

208hp with a turbo doesnt seem like a lot, but I dont know?

Maybe its de-tuned from factory? Oh Im so excited.

it doesn't sound far off from the other reports because every single effing clickbait shitposting car "news" website is citing the same motoring.com.au article that was bullshit to begin with.

The cars have 195 NM (Newton Metres) of torque. Which is the standard measurement outside of the States.

So technically you're correct. Or at least off by 5 NM.

But yeah it's 151 in lb-ft.

Part of the refresh will include a slight bump to power and torque, an increase of about five percent. That means you can expect somewhere around 208-hp compared to 200. This boost comes from a new intake manifold and improved engine internals that will reduce friction and help the coupe improve fuel efficiency by about seven percent.

That sounds about right. New Intake could net around 8hp at the engine.

Quote:

But as they say in infomercials, “that’s not all!” The upcoming coupe will also get updated suspension that will enhance ride comfort while still delivering the sharp handling that the FR-S is known for. A reinforced rear suspension subframe will also help to retain stability.

Hmm not sure how I feel about that. Sounds like more weight.

Finally, the report suggests that the car will get an updated look, starting with a more aggressive front bumper, new headlights and hood, while the rear end will get a new diffuser and exhaust outlets.

More aggressive usually means busy as fuck. Don't like the sound of that.

Another great find! So looks like there will be three different models for 2016. One convertible, one sti, and the yellow track model!
