The new GT86 CS-R3, developed by Toyota Motorsport (TMG) marks the Japanese brand return to its rallying roots with a rear-wheel-drive car to entertain drivers and fans alike, following in the wheel tracks of cars such as the spectacular Celica Twin Cam Turbo (TA64), a rally winner in the 1980s.
The GT86 CS-R3 conforms to the FIA’s R3 regulation, which allows modification of its two-litre boxer engine. Changes to the software and hardware, such as cam lift and compression ratio, are part of an extensive development programme and the final car is targeted to deliver 240-250 hp.
Throughout the development process, TMG has focused on reducing weight whilst delivering safety, reliability and fun. The car has been fitted with a sequential shift six-speed transmission and limited slip rear differential. A FIA-homologated safety cage has been designed for weight optimisation.
