After driving it in Gran Turismo for a bit I’m able to get lap times similar to an S2000. The S2000 is ultimately a hair faster but the GR86 is easier to be consistently fast with.

The GR86 drives very similarly to the 2015 86 in the game, just faster. It’s instantly recognizable as a twin. I’m able to shave 2-3 seconds off my time on brand’s hatch between the 2. The engine sounds very similar too, a bit smoother but not as different as the Ken Gushi drive-alongs suggested. Sounds like polyphony turned the fake engine noise off.

Based on the VR video, it looks like he had to shift into 3rd at around 55~ish, which seems to suggest the gearing hasn't changed from the 4.3 ratios of the 2017+ models. Am I right about that?

Also, where is the ducktail Sony?

2017 GT86 vs 2022 GR86 (they have the years labeled incorrectly)

0-60: 7.27s / 6.62s -- + 0.65s
0-100: 18.85s / 15.88s -- + 2.97s
1/4: 15.62s @ 90 / 14.73s @ 95 -- + 0.89s @ 5mph
1 KM: 28.25s @ 118 / 26.67s @ 126 -- + 1.58s @ 8mph
1 Mile: 38.92s @ 130 / 36.90s @ 140 -- + 2.02s @ 10mph

Will be interesting to see if these match up to the real world. The 0-60 for the 2022 GR86 in the game seems slower than what Toyota has been quoting, but there are notable improvements considering the relatively low power gains - more top end would help but that isn't how they tuned the engine; I'm assuming it might be a tad faster in the real world, but probably not by that much.

*** P.S. The trunk looks to be the same size. I recall there being some discussion about it shrinking, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

The game is using the final drive of 4.1 for the new car, using the same gear ratios from the og model.

I customised it to run at the 4.3 ratio with exact same gearing at the 16+ model (going custom messes with them all so you have to configure it all separately after setting a max speed), and apart from the custom whine and the clear improvement in gear change time, I got to admit it feel a lit more like it should sit at 4.3!

I wish I could just change the gears instead having to install a full sequential gearbox so I could compare them better.

But yeah, its excellent.

Its just a game, but boy it felt right there.

This guy buys the car and instantly pull a 8:12.12 run on the ring.

Thats a very decent time on Sports Hard tires.

It's not likely they messed up the ratios in the game, right? We are probably looking at 4.1 gearing for the production model.

Correct.
