The three-cylinder car was hard changed to "Thousand Horse Monster", and this outer eight-character Toyota steel cannon is a model of playing a pig and eating a tiger
The 2022 Tokyo Tuning Auto Show is about to open on January 14, and recently there have been many eager exhibitors to debut, and Japan's tuning culture is indeed very developed, in addition to some professional tuning factories to participate in high-profile exhibitions, but also some riders and small teams to create modified cars. For example, recently has seen a very cool Toyota GR Yaris modified car, this car was originally a 1.6T displacement three-cylinder small steel gun, belonging to the Toyota GR Sports Division to build, its own performance is indeed in the same displacement is very strong, but after all, 1.6T displacement limit, it is impossible to have too high an upper limit.
However, after the transformation of Taigo Saito's drift driver team, the car has been completely transformed, and the main style of the appearance has not been greatly changed, maintaining the figure of the small steel cannon. The front face of the front of the car is a very low-key honeycomb air intake net, with the addition of a lower carbon fiber front shovel, which can clearly feel the hood high and bulging, as if the front of the car is bulging a large bag, which of course is to tuck in a larger engine.
Who would have thought that a small steel cannon model would be equipped with a classic enough 2JZ in-line 6-cylinder engine, which was the 4th generation of Toyota Bull Devil King Supra classic engine, which was limited by the Gentleman's Agreement at that time, and the maximum output was limited to 280 horsepower, which was obviously not the upper limit of the engine. The engine power parameters installed on this Toyota GR Yaris can already reach 1,000 horsepower, so this is a complete thousand-horse monster, which can be a model for playing a pig and eating a tiger.
Because it is a modification scheme designed in favor of drifting, the unique style of the drift car can also be seen on the side of the body, and the wheels adopt a very exaggerated outer figure eight angle adjustment, which can greatly offset the centrifugal force during the drifting process, and the models exhibited use semi-hot melt tires. There are also more exaggerated carbon fiber tails at the rear of the vehicle, of course, the entire wheel spacing is also greatly widened, and the large side surrounds are installed in the form of riveting, which is a pure wide-body low-lying scheme.
Since the front engine compartment is still very limited, the modification of the hood will not help, and this large displacement engine needs a strong heat dissipation, not to mention the engine after the modification of a thousand horses, so the radiator module is directly arranged in the rear of the vehicle, and the rear is directly exposed to two oversized cooling fans to ensure heat dissipation efficiency.
In addition to the obvious modification kit on the surface, it will be more shocking to look down, the entire chassis of the car has been replaced almost completely, and the team has independently designed a more powerful track-level suspension system, whether it is structural design or welding process, it looks quite high.
The interior should also be professionally modified, the drift car must first ensure safety, but also as light as possible, so directly dismantled the less important decorative kit, only to retain two independent racing barrel chairs, the rear directly customized high-strength aluminum alloy roll cage, even if the drift failure rolls over, the 6-point seat belt and roll cage system can also ensure the safety of the driver with a high probability.
The question is, do you want to have such a car modification culture in China? Welcome to leave a message in the comment area, let's discuss together! Spend a second to pay attention and make good friends for a lifetime! Some of the pictures come from the Internet, it is not easy to write an article, welcome the majority of car fans to like and share.
