In this Larry Chen video, Gordon unveils the g16 three-cylinder turbo all-wheel drive gr86 Toyota SEMA car, a magnificent creation born from the gr team's ingenious idea. Inspired by early '90s WRC Toyota rally cars, this beast pays homage to the golden era of rallying. Gordon's extensive rally experience shines through in every detail of this project, showcasing his deep connection to the sport. The car's unique Michelin Tex Tires, sourced internationally due to their scarcity in the US, add a touch of exclusivity to this already remarkable build.
From the Speed Line wheels to the custom exhaust with 3D printed components, every aspect of this car exudes precision and performance. The modified brakes from the gr Corolla and the rally-style spoiler further emphasize the rally heritage of this machine. Under the hood, the engine setup, expertly integrated by Chris imer and the evasive crew, mirrors that of a gr Corolla, ensuring top-notch performance on and off the track. The rally-focused interior, complete with a fire suppression system and rally computer inputs, highlights the car's purpose-built design for the toughest of rally stages.
As Gordon walks Larry through the car, the attention to detail becomes apparent in every feature, from the polycarbonate rear window to the Sparco mud flaps. The rally-specific elements like light pods and oil coolers add a touch of authenticity to this modern rally masterpiece. The car's aesthetic appeal is further enhanced by the CNCed aluminum mirrors from evasive, showcasing the blend of form and function in this rally machine. Overall, this g16 gr86 Toyota SEMA car stands as a testament to Gordon's passion for rallying and his unwavering dedication to creating a true rally icon.
