Close, but not exactly. As Mr. Williamsen noted in the article I wrote for Kaizen Factor, they started with an AZ6/J160 (basically the same), but went and changed 80% of it and renamed it the TL70. The RA62 reference was an error by whoever put together the Scion FR-S Long Lead Press Presentation Outline.
