Race Use Only full TRD supercharger released!!!!
So my parts manager walked up to me with the release form to order the Race use only TRD supercharger kit. This bad boy shows its $26,000 and a minimum purchase of 2 kits. And yea that's the correct price so you have to pay $52,000 minimum. I sure hope the street version isn't as pricy. Part number is PTR29-00086

Does this kit come with a life time supply of gas?
|
in for more info!!

Group buy?
:bellyroll: |
Hahahaha YOLO!!!

Maybe if we get a 1000 person group buy we can get it for under 20k.
|
For the price for one, I can buy another FR-S to use to push the first one faster.

:eyebulge:
$26,000 for 1, MINIMUM ORDER 2! |
For some odd reason when I saw the price, I pictured a FRS with two more FRS's pushing it. LOL:bonk:
|
Was exited to get trd parts after switching to a toyota. Ive now come to realize they're no different than the ridiculously overpriced euro parts I wantes but would never spend money on lol, 26k for an ugly ass SC? Fail TRD. Fail.

Only other information I have. The kit includes only the housing manifold, rotor group, intercooler core and low temp radiator. Mounting/fitment details are the responsibility of the race team purchasing the kit. Engine management software is the sole responsibility of the team.
Pretty crazy doesn't even include pistons or ecu |

Pirelli World Challenge Supercharger...
I found this while going through Toyota's systems today looking for some information on the taillight TSB for a customer.
Per the rules of the World Challenge, Parts must be available for sale. $LOTS OF MONEY per kit with a minimum purchase of 2. (edit). Wow. edit: thanks to Jeff for posting the edited version. |

Ridiculous

Well this shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone following the other thread about this, after all, it does delete the air conditioning. No street car owner in their right mind would install this, much less pay for it now that we know it costs more than the car in some cases, and comes with basically zero support.

That's dealer cost. I'd take that PDF down ;)
Here's an edited one |
It probably comes with a fully built engine/transmission/ecu/wiring harness... at least
|
So essentially Toyota wants it out there for racing homologation, but they don't really want too many people to have this bad boy. Maybe it is pretty powerful and touchy to operate correctly to keep all the engine parts where they belong. Unobtanium, makes me want it even more after writing this.

You could probably get in trouble for posting that online, since it looks like its a dealer price; and I don't want to speak for everyone else but I think everyone already knew parts used in the world challenge have to be available for retail.
|
26,000 dollars sounds like a bargain to me.

This is available for the public only to make it legal for the race car to run it. The engine on that car is fully built and most of the drive train components are upgraded. This has been done by other manufacturers in the past.
|
I think everyone here got excited when they heard there would be an FR-S entered into the Pirelli World Challenge knowing the rules that all the go-fast parts had to be sold to the public, according to the rules.
Only to find out that they kinda streched the rules and the parts they are "selling" are ridiculously expensive and not at all applicable to a street car. |
