According to the Top Gear article it has a Corolla engine that's supercharged as well as turbo charged?

If its a 3SGTE I thinks its very wrong of them to say its a corolla engine, its just as much a GT4 engine!

the weight of this car is 2314lbs 1 kilo is around 2.2 lbs. so the car is much lighter then the average celica gtfour, its weight is around 3042lbs(from the sources i found) while a standard celica ST is around 2400 lbs. but i dunno if my gt four weight source is correct seems a bit high, 600lbs heavier due to awd? dont make sense but maybe im wrong.also seems like the race celica is using a custom built fiberglass front end as its clearly one piece...

Bigger brakes, super charger, twin turbos, awd, reinforced tranny. All of it adds up.
My auto GT stock weighs 2,315 lbs. |
