to be honest, IF both regular & G's come in production and perform as same as GT5. I'm still gonna buy regular FT86. Cuz stock FT86 perform awesomely over G's. Yes, Turbo ver have more hp and can make more hp... but something bout lightly tuned NA FT86 that I cannot resist.

I could see them making it a special edition (like the Nismo 370Z) or offer the kit and some performance parts as TRD options.

Only difference is TRD parts are hella expensive... but it's just that good.

Both the factory Nismo and the Nsimo S-tune options seem to be pretty popular, so no reason why Toyota couldn't do this as well. |

My wheels are an example of the old TRD awesomeness. Forged monobloc by none other than Rays Engineering. Does that still apply to TRD wheels today? Not bloody likely.

500 people pre-ordering a TRD dry carbon hood. Oh my! That's a lot of rich boys and girls! Christ, that would be like a $1.5M order!

It happened in Japan. My cousin's friend was one of those 500. I can't remember how much he had to pay, but he told me that he borrowed money from several friends & family members to get that cf hood... but in the end, he actually sold it (too chicken to actually install it in his 86). He made good money out of it (so I heard).
