Toyota has presented the GT 86 TRD Griffon Project, which will make its official debut at the 2013 Goodwood Festival of Speed.

The car is modified specially for track driving. It comes with a TRD mechanical differential instead of the stock Torsen unit, while the final drive ratio has been shortened to 4.8:1.

Other modifications include new oil cooler, coilover suspension and TRD monoblock calipers with race-spec brake pads.

The car has gone through a massive weight reduction. Overall, 277 kg (500 lbs) has been shaved of the vehicles weight. This means a curb weight of the GT 86 TRD Griffon Project – 1,034 kg (2,279 lbs).

The exterior features carbon fiber doors, hood, roof, rear wing and boot lid, while the rear diffuser, front wing and bumpers are made from CFRP. The stock glass windows have been replaced by lighter polycarbonate units. The GT 86 now sits on 18" alloys wrapped around in Yokohama Advan performance tires.

The interior comes with a bucket seat, MOMO steering and other TRD upgrades like gauges, push start switch and gearshift knob.
