A few weeks ago, Toyota unveiled the Toyota GR86 «Cup Car Basic» sister model.

To participate in the races most of the equipment of standard cars are not needed, so in Japan, automakers produce special factory modifications, which are already from the conveyor belt adapted for conversion into full-fledged racing sports cars.

The last novelty of this type was the Subaru BRZ coupe of the last generation, for which the Cup Car Basic version was presented.

A similar version is available for the two-door Toyota GR86.

The 232-horsepower 2.4-liter opposition engine with a six-speed manual transmission and self-locking differential in the rear-wheel drive coupe remained standard, but the differential housing is equipped with additional ribs for better heat dissipation, and the engine received an air-cooled oil radiator.

All the equipment has been developed by Toyota Gazoo Racing and Subaru Tecnica International.
