Will FT-86 pull 1g on skidpad stock?
Or will that be left for aftermarket suspension and tire upgrades?

Nope, never had that pleasure in being in a car that can pull 1g.
The 370z I believe pulls 0.99g, the Cayman pulls just over 1g, even a FF Mazdaspeed3 pulls 0.89. Ultimately it will probably come down to the tires Toyota decided to stock these with. |

with good summer tires, i'm guessing .96g stock. my MR2 hits over 1g with the slicks on (duh), and when i race karts, sometimes i'll get >2 lateral g's.

I had a privilege of ride in Crawford's STI (Driver was Tarzan Yamada) one time. While he was driving he said "Give you a heads up. Next corner, we'll prob hit 1g or more so be ready" (in Japanese) That was hellova fun!

Hahaha awesome thread
way to OT Ichi :pOn topic my 323f could pull .95g on Streets (street tires) but with the d2 coilovers and wider tires. Never measured it on the track tho ![]() Will measure the rx8 next time I think the 86 will do that with Mayb semislick and stock suspension. Well at least it should.
