Pls tell them to put the GR86 drivetrain in the GR Corolla as a "Joke" for SEMA 😂😂😂
Modern RWD drift corolla with the Initial D AE86 livery would be kinda cool tbh
That would actually be awesome 😂
Sure, everything except the flat four.
@@PiDsPagePrototypeswould be cool with the flat four if it weren’t for the problems we’ve been seeing with it on the track
@@PiDsPagePrototypesbut that's a "Joke"
Boot up the Saturn and pop in Sega Rally Championship.
my man
GAME OVER YEEEEEEEEAAAHH
Heck yes
This comment makes me feel so old 😂
@@d34thby1337 hahahaha best comment ever
Next on Toyota's Radar, An all new GR Celica with a new 2.0 Turbo. This is just a preview
And it will still suck, Team Toyota is garbage right now
I’ve heard abt their new 2.0 Turbo engine. Seems promising. I hope there’s a GE N/A version that 8k capable for the next 86. I don’t think the car needs a turbo
@@VividTape Not really.
@@VividTape no they don't. the GR products have been all pretty good.
@@VividTape Toyota has always been better & Far Superior than Anything American Made.
Nissan did the same thing with the now current Z. Swapping a TT VQ into the 370Z back in the day. I’m assuming Toyota initiated this project to gauge public interest on a production version.
I have an FR-S and my co-worker just got the Corolla. We were literally talking about this like 2 days ago lol. She's gonna freak out when she sees this.
Cool 👍
Toyota using evasive as free R&D for the next gen gr86
Kind of a thing in the industry. There was a 370Z at SEMA that was the 3.0 TT setup before we saw the new Z. I'm sure if you look you'll find lots of other examples.
Evasive can just sell a convo kit and make huge profits from all sensible 86 owners.
I think the word he was looking for is “Transversely” mounted.
It slipped my mind 😅
@@LarryChenPhoto most rally cars today have their engines mounted tranversely which makes sence. this car was competing against some stupid fast hatchbacks. and most rally cars now (if not all worlwide) are hatchbacks anyways
This is a step backward. Please install north south not transverse. In rally now days is transverse because of the cheap cars they are based on not because teams would not rather do north south installations.
@@Taktko why? It works as it is, and the technology is already there. The only thing they'd accomplish is increase the development time
@@TaktkoThere's nothing about a longitudinal awd drivetrain that's better than transverse. Most awd drivatrains are assymetric anyway (unless you go the Audi/Subaru route, which gives unnecessary understeer and makes the chassi longer in the front)
The only real advantage of longitudinal is the aesthetics, it "looks" better.
How about a Celica gt4 bonnet vent on it, allowing to bulge the bonnet and give more clearance. Would be a nice nod to the old school look.
100% The hood, wide body and large rear spoiler were so signature to all the GT-Four/All-Tracs
I hope they put the GR Corolla's Triple Exhaust on it as well! it's gonna freak people out!
This is a fun little project, I can't wait to see it rip when it's finished 😎 the fact that Toyota sanctioned this is a good sign of things to come. 💯
I always wanted them to make the Scion TC (clearly the Celica successor of its time) into a GT4. This is like a wish come true
The only thing in common with the celica it had was that its manual and fwd. i dont think thats enough to call it a successor
It filled the same spot in the lineup as the last Celica did, being an affordable sporty-ish FWD coupe with economy car underpinnings. It was more of a spiritual successor.
the Scion TC was the successor to the last Celica, you can even see it in the styling of the TC
Finally, a motor that fits this chassis. They should've dropped the boxer engine for the 2017 revision.
The GR86 becomes a Corolla again.
Or a Celica GT4
Mindblowing but what a great engineswap !
Nearly all Generations of Celicas shared a lot with Corollas in general. To me makes sense if they made the Celica based off of a Corolla Coupe chassis, but restyled to look like a Celica.
Thanks for getting into weeds for us Larry, Nerd Alliance member here loving the details!
This is it. This would be THE car I would trade both MR2's and my Celica for. Build it Toyota!
Watching with interest. (People have already done AWD BRZ's so cool to see what route Toyota go.... Right....off to watch video)
Love your shows man, is nice and detailed of the topic. Is not like a 3 mins overview! ❤❤ Keep up the great work!
This is awesome that Toyota is thinking of reviving the Celica and keeping the all-wheel drive.
"Mounted like this... like thiiiisss (hand gestures)" That guy really knows his stuff.
he don't word good, but he build car good 👍
st185 owner of #69 AU delivered here for the GT4 content
This guy is an absolute encyclopaedia of automotive information!! Incredible!!
Man having Garage Yoshida completely restore his R34 GTR in response to a GR Corolla engine in a GR86: "This is my dream build".
Flippin’
Larry was not buying the idea that the hood would close 😂 Larry probably thinking of the GT4586.
Looks like another awesome Evasive build!
I hope Toyota follows thru with this - you'd get my money!
Toyota Japan, through Rookie Racing (Akio Toyoda's own racing team), actually built a GR86 with the G16E as its engine but they put the engine longitudinally to make it RWD only and use it to race in Super Taikyu.
Damn Larry that is a sick build. I’m glad you got this story too.
gosh, this would legit be my dream car. what an awesome project. the GT-4 is one of the coolest cars of all time.
Hopefully it pulls through and we this engine in the GR 86!
The fact that they are making this concept for SEMA is proof that an actual production version will arrive for the next generation. Especially when you consider what the rumors have also said about the next generation GR86 having a de-stroked version of the G16E-GTS.
that engine rwd in the 86 would be sweet
Toyota please make the 3 cylinder turbo motor standard in the next gr86 !
*_They better sell a base model version… 😭_*
That's the money making recipe. Three versions, base FWD model, upscaled FWD model and then the GR version AWD Turbo.
I came across a 1993 Toyota Celica GT4 that was being sold for $25K here in PA., and my mouth hit the floor. 😮😮
The shop owner said it was used as a daily and a race car for Pocono Raceway. 😊
This is a pretty dope project!
This is going to be such an exciting project.
Sick beat!!
I cant wait to see more of this
Love to see what they'll do to get the handling right with a FWD engine and trans in a pure RWD chassis
Ironically, it’s an AWD chassis, turned into a RWD chassis, being turned back into an AWD chassis.
@@DBtwoz when was the gr86 chassis awd?
@@RadonCharger The front is based on Subaru GD chassis and the rear is a Subaru GR chassis.
@@DBtwoz it can be based on whatever, the chassis itself isn't awd
Holy smokes this is going to be awesome. I'm going to be following this project
For a second I thought this was the Assetto Corsa mod that has been our for a awhile. Cool to see that concept come to life.
Toyota please make this a real production car!
This car will be amazing ❤
Very exciting. I love to hear the creative design work these guys are doing to build what is going to be a highly customized drivetrain.
Larry, you need to follow this build, and make up dates vídeos,that would be cool.
Love this project. So much goodness.
I wish it wasn't so exciting when someone puts a Toyota engine in a sports car with a Toyota badge on the hood. Great content Larry!
Have been playing with similar in video games lately and really like it, very cool!
Dude this is gonna be awesome 👌 👏
Awesome project! I wish they would offer the GR86 with the GR Corolla engine as a production model. I love my GR86 but that turbo 3 cylinder is insane.
This is an awesome build. I love custom fab work, and this fits the bill. And as a ZD8 BRZ owner, this is even more interesting.
ZD8 gang 🫡
This is ultra cool and I love the philosophy of the project, keeping the Corolla drivetrain and 86 body very faithful to the originals. I'm hoping they add some cool oem feeling exterior parts like the high wing that aren't just off the shelf wings and splitters. The high wings on the 90s GT4s, Supras, etc., are so iconic, and it'd be cool to have some high spec factory parts like that floating around. Excited to see how this turns out and I love the idea of a potential production model. Toyota seems to really be killing it these days
That’s sick 🤘
Now turn the gr corolla into a boxxer RWD, best of both worlds
I love u Larry Chen!!!
beautiful
Goshhhhhh i cant stand how many sickkkk asssss cars have become so ffffffun to watch and envy
Been waiting for this since I seen the gr swapped ae86 in Japan 👌🏽
Love this livery
Isn't That Dai's Fabricator, That Build The BRZ, And He Is Also On His FD Team?
YES!!!
Currently been sourcing parts to rsx 5 lug and disc conversion with CRV AWD. Getting together piece by piece...
I've always wanted someone to do a 2ZZGE engine swap with the 86/BRZ! Especially if it's the Lotus supercharged varient.
That would be so good!!
A gr86 altrac would be cool
My dad had a celica altrac turbo which for the st165 generation, the US market altrac turbo and the japanese gtfour were the same exact car. I think each dealer got like only 1 or 2 cars. Anyways.
This is dope, would love to see Toyota make something similar
Making the GR86 with GR Corolla engine is cool tho making such more reliable.
this is going to be the coolest damn thing ever
OUTSTANDING!!! In all honesty and my opinion, that would be my favorite car. I love the GR86 just NOT the Subaru engine. Does anyone remember Fensports AWD 03’ Celica? Extraordinary build!
86/FR-S/BRZ is and has always been the new celica imo
They’re essentially roundabout Celicas.
toyota has an identity crisis, they've had so many mishmash cars they don't know their own heritage
@@VividTapeyup.
@@VividTapeLexus got it worse
The words you both were looking for were longitudinal and transverse.
Money builds happiness 😊
Managed to put it in a aw11 chassis.
Hair of the Cheny Chen Chen!! ✌✌✌
New favorite build! I always thought Subaru wouldve done this with the STI drivetrain but this is WAY better!
Subaru been trippin’ lately 😢
My two racing sense. The engine being so far forward, beyond front axles, this is going to be a off balance monster.
It's a good day when the upload is a Toyota Episode! How awesome would it be if Toyota actually made these changes to production?
A mini ecu standalone behind the digital gauges a pico size ecu
I so want to do this!
Toyota need to make this. They could brand it as the GR Celica 86 . Price point at $40k starting and top out at $50k?
These guys just doing what literally everyone has been asking toyota to do to the 86 since day one.
Hells yea
Restrictor plate go brrrrrr
This was my goal as well with my GRC/ZN6 combo, but just can't decide if 4WD or RWD!
This is interesting, we will try to recreate the physics for this car!
First awd gt86 was build 2013-2014 in Finland @ tommi mäkinen racing.
I really hope the upcoming Celica will be a turbo AWD monster 😁. And accessible too (price/availability)!
I would literally buy this in a heartbeat if they actually make one irl
I truly hope when Honda makes the next type r i hope it's awd. Preferably no hybrid but it looks like it will be hybrid. But i would still take an awd type r with rear driven by pure motors. & front is same ice.
If it doesn’t have a faulty air box.
I don’t want it 🤣🤣🤣
Massive love all
Almost makes me wonder if Toyota, with the success of the GR86 and relative failure of BRZ sales is considering taking the GR86 in house with GR Corolla style drivetrain. I doubt it, but doing prototyping as a SEMA car would actually be very clever.
Let’s go
For as much car content and the level of people Larry is around, i really thoughf he would be way more knowledgeable than he is
please correct me if I'm wrong but ...wouldn't it have been easier to put the 86 body on the GR chassis?
Make this happen, Toyota, this is what the people want.
Toyota should make GR86 alltrac official!
Sign me up. Want to add the AWD GR86 next to my GRY Rallye 😊😊😊
they should also put 'restrictor plate' to its turbo intake
I wonder if the Avalon's AWD system would have bolted in.
This would be awesome to see a full-production rally car for the American Rally Association.
Im curious what the weight distribution is going to be. Being too front heavy is not good for handling.
The G16e is considerably lighter than the FA24.
