Do we know how many gears it takes to get to 62mph? Say you need to take 3rd at 59mph thats going to be a big contributor to the 7.6 secs.

Pistonheads GT86 Thread
The Pistonhead's thread is actually quite a good read as it is far less Interwebz then this one.
Many of their members have actually been out and driven one and commented.
A handful of them have bought one.
Found it a good read and they have linked some good videos as well.
Just seen the TRD effort and it looks immense, no engine tuning though.

600th of a second, so 6.9 to 59mph looks better

And a set of 255 rears for extra grip from the lights?

to be honest it would be so much better with 400bhp and 255 rears

true.
i love the front end on the subaru, but can't get on with that weird boot spoiler thing or the rear lights.
never noticed that bit in the roof before, that's a nice touch.

50bhp more and you'd spin off at the first corner you came to

well that's blatant lies and i have 228bhp and always have the dsc off, yet i'm fine.
i'm no elite driver either. imagine how capable it would be in paul j/steve's/ojc's hands.

Don't be silly Jim, in the 90s everyone would have been saying it was too powerful and it would be dangerous to look at its reflection.

Are you on drugs? Toyota made the supra and that was a very nice car back in the day.
Even today it still looks fantastic.
