Dome 86 GT300 in Development - Page 2 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

I have the same thought as @The359. The current cars, such as the GT300 BRZ, seem to be very, very highly modified street car chassis with the front and rear subframes being completely new but the central tub of the chassis remaining a very modified version of the street car. There's something cool about that. Unless my understanding of that car is completely off.

What a beauty

Mr. · 06-06-2013, 09:21 PM

Why they copying the brz? Like two years late? Still, sweet racing will make cars better.

86 shell does not an 86 make. Technically, this car is any car you want it to be if you have the patience to make a replica shell of any other car and slap it on.

I didn't know GT3/GT300 cars have CF tubs. This is more like GT500 car to me. Aren't they supposed to keep the body behind the A Piller and back?
I like the steering linkage. Hydraulic assist, I guess?

Unfortunately the more money involved in the race series the less the cars resemble the manufacturer's original product. Just look at the Drift cars with their engine transplants and reworked chassis for a halfway house example. That is why I prefer the Club Sport type events.

I prefer how it looks without the shell on.

It's not the first domestic car to start stretching the bounds of the rules. It pretty much started when they allowed a Lexus IS running a V6 in the back seat! Now they have a Prius with a Formula Nippon V8 in the back seat!

Very Cool! I wonder what kinda price this will realistically go for

cum everywhere.

Not to be that guy, but do these actually have any relevance for us? In some ways, I'm more impressed with the Griffon 86 and Evasive's FR-S, since they are actually based on our chassis and engine.

These seem more like NASCAR "Toyota Camry" or "Chevy Impala".
