You mean NOS? That's my guess as well. It's the same type of hose and fittings.

This is so awesome. It really shows that Toyota wants this to be a legitimate driver's car.

I also think this isn't necessarily the Toyota version of it, front end looks very Scion-ish I think.

Btw, just quietly, that spoiler's a crime against nature.

I'm not liking what I can make out of the tail lights. I'm hoping they've dummied them up just so we can't see how they really look.

Anyone else thinking it really looks like a baby LF-A here? Speaking of which that LF-A looks totally beasty.

All in all top job getting all this, 100% pumped to see more of this type of stuff.

No he means the CO2 or compressed air for the air jacks.

Ah, that makes more sense. Thanks.

chaoskaze · 10-16-2011, 03:52 AM

I think FT86 & FR-S might look a lot more alike then what we thought.
(80% alike --> like 95% alike? )

It's just what i'm thinking now.

switchlanez · 10-16-2011, 04:05 AM

^I'm guessing the differences will be of similar magnitude to the differences between the Ist and xA/xD or the bB and xB.

Akai · 10-16-2011, 04:15 AM

Thanks for the great photos of the race. From http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2011/10...-personal.html, skip to photo 29, does it look like the car's redline at 7500 ish??

switchlanez · 10-16-2011, 04:22 AM

^Yup, looks like 7400 to be exact.

Streetice · 10-16-2011, 04:47 AM

With all the questions and coments about how it looks remember this was a race so cosmetics were not the first thing the team would have been knocking heads over.
Race is proformance so it would only stand to reason everything we see is a quick put together however the one thing I havent seen yet in any of these GREAT PICS (no joke) is under the hood (bonnet for my euro friends) what was driving this bad boy and what they did to for the race!?

With that said
December! GET HERE QUICK! haha!

This car has a Toyota badge on the boot lid....

And i think the Scion version will be idential to the Toyota but just with a different badge.
