TRD Griffon Update
Not sure if this has been posted yet. Updated version of the TRD Griffon will be shown in the Tokyo Auto Show this year. Looks meaner and more badass than before with its new aerodynamic upgrades. According to the new specifications page, new parts are currently being tested/developed. As of now, the Griffon makes approximately 230PS with the new parts installed. For those who can't read Japanese, here are the list of items that are shown as "In Development".
http://www.trdparts.jp/86concept_2014/index.html Development Parts Include: TRD Pistons TRD Connecting Rods TRD Cam shaft TRD ECU TRD Front Lower Arm TRD Cross Transmission Set TRD 4.8 Final Gear TRD Reinforced Clutch Cover TRD Metal Clutch Disk TRD Monoblock Break Kit & Pads (Possibly new version?)

If it weren't for the 2013 Griffon I'd probably still have the ugly factory fender garnish I've hated since day 1 instead of the TRD aero fender fins....
This 2014 one looks even better, both in aero and paint job!

Where can I get the 4.80 diff (or equivalent that costs less than $1,200+ for the TRD part)?

Here's the site translated and for those wondering 230ps is roughly 226hp. |
