2017+ (kouki) 86 GR at Fuji Speedway - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

mav1178 · 10-14-2017, 07:30 AM

I'm at Fuji Speedway for the WEC 6 Hours of Fuji, and given that Toyota Gazoo Racing is one of the top teams in LMP1 all the GR cars that were announced last month are on display.

In case you wanted a refresh of the polarizing opinion: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=122110

A complete 86 GR is on display here, with a very good looking rear diffuser on the car. The diffuser is completely different than the 13-16 zenki model.

Specs include:

"performance suspension" with 10mm lowering
big brake kit 6 piston front / 4 piston rear
Rays forged wheels
215 tires front 235 tires rear... Michelin Pilot Sport 4
front/side/rear aero w/ rear diffuser
center exit exhaust
Recaro seats
GR-spec torsen diff (not sure if it's more aggressive or different final drive)

Anyhow, here's the pics. I'm headed to Mega Web on Monday, if there's another car on display I will get more info.

Great pictures, thank you!

Brakes aren't the same as TRD though

Thanks for the catch, I took a pic of the spec sheet and it doesn't have any branding on the calipers.

I should note that neither TRD nor Gazoo Racing makes any of their own brakes. These usually are some type of OE supplier rebranded, but definitely not Brembo.

IMO, the Rear muffler area has a 3 out of 10 design rating, looks like going back 20 years as far as design goes

Are there any Japanese speakers in here that can translate Zenki and Kouki?

Zenki - pre-facelift
Kouki - facelift.

Even more interesting is the factory Michelin Pilot Sports.
