I spoke too soon. HKS had a GR Yaris (same G16E-GTS engine) pushing 475 over a year ago on stock internals. Granted, this is with a bigger turbo, running a 100 shot of nitrous and running motec in place of the factory ECU, but the engine seems plenty capable.

I still think Toyota tuned this little bitch to the edge of what's acceptable for public consumption, but the more I read, the more I see an overengineered engine with a lot of potential. She very well could give the VR30DDTT a run for its money.

Tofu deliveries are about to be interesting again.
Quick Question - Is there a center dash mount cup holder? If so, the the plot thickens !!!

Will that matter when the new Z puts bus lengths on the Corolla GR-FOUR?

As much as I like the Corolla, I don't think it'll be nearly as quick as a Z, Golf R or CTR.
Report back when you get your Z. I have a feeling people will have their hands on a GRC before a Z. Hell, we might be fully autonomous by the time the Z comes out.

Just put a $250 refundable deposit down for a Heavy Metal Circuit or Black Core with diffs. I doubt this will apply to the Circuit but he was adamant that their price will be MSRP.

From today's junk emails ...

You Might Not Get A Toyota GR Corolla
Between Toyota limiting dealer orders and its weird allocation process, you may not end up with the GR you wanted. Or you might not end up with one at all.​
Toyota has heard your GR Corolla calls and wants you to calm down. For those of you who already contacted local dealers to get in line, good on you for getting in early. The unfortunate reality is that even if you select the options and colors you want, you probably won’t end up getting that exact GR Corolla, if at all.​

They're right... if I can't get the one I want then I won't be getting one at all.

3 cylinders. Somehow I don’t see that engine lasting very long. But I admit I am no mechanic.
