Greddy Set to Build Scion FR-S for Ken Gushi in 2012

We have more information on this Scion FR-S build happening with Ken Gushi next season! It sounds like RS*R is taking a backseat like we posted a rumormill of earlier and they have a new company taking over building of the Scion. The Toyota GT-86 has been everywhere this weekend and we documented some production photos of what the car looks like as a production model. With a relationship already in place between Scion Racing and Greddy (see the Scion tC above) it sounds like they are going to call on them to complete the 2012 Scion FR-S build for Ken Gushi. We cannot wait to see what they will cook up for the new drifting season.

Lol, I can see a Greddy turbo kit for the FR-S coming in the near future.

So full of win

Damn can't wait for that!!! will be sooo awesome...

But don't they normally mulest the car more then just a turbo kit ie but in huge V8s...?

There are still a bunch of turbo 4cyl cars in Formula D.

I seriously doubt a V8 will fit under the sloping hood, but i may be wrong.

By a bunch you mean barely a handful right?

You must be thinking ProAM.

Probably about 10-15 cars, so I would say more then a handful. Most of them are sr20's, with a few f20 swaps in the ae86's. Lol I could go count if you wan't, but no big deal. The last few years most went to Ls swaps or Vq's.

while i wouldnt doubt greddy making a turbo kit for the FR-S (although it would need low-comp pistons to really be practical, or some crazy ethanol injection)...

im pretty sure with the unlimited resources and no need to comply with federal/state emission requirements, they will most likely just drop a WRX engine in a competition drift vehicle.

and i've been asking on the scion racing facebook page when we will start seeing some testing with gushi. nice to finally see some results! :thumbsup:

btw ken if you're reading this, thanks for the zipties on my camaro at adams. :happy0180:
