Always register my Toyota GT86 is fantastic Tokyo Auto Salon, here's another set of four concepts (in fact the GRMN is not part of the 4) and not the less wicked. TOM'S N086V this effect has exchanged its 4-cylinder boxer all a nice big flat six-cylinder V And some say officially that there is no place to install a turbo under the hood ....



The TOM'S N086V is exposed on the Toyota stand with the concept 86xStyle seen and Cb proposal Modellista and TRD Griffon. The particularity of this model pictured here with the guys Autoguide. Com is not so much the look generously expanded by carbon wing extensions, a low shield wiper, side skirts and a diffuser impressive thick, no interest is under the hood where it becomes difficult to slide a finger.

Indeed, engineers and mechanics TOM'S (a racing team but also a manufacturer of kits for the road like any other almost) managed to bring nothing less than a V6 under the hood where we explained to launch self that there was not enough room to put a turbo. The V6 is obviously genuine Toyota as this is the standard 3.5-liter that develops 400 hp here.

Regarding the preservation of the delicate balance GT86, it will probably be less looking ...
