Ekanoo Racings GT86

[Matt]

Ekanoo Racing is a workshop situated in Bahrain that have a reputation for building fast cars. A supra they recently built did a respectable 6.7 second quarter mile, and I have no doubts that their GT86 won't be too far behind.

Like many others before them , Tuerck Aasbo etc. the guys have ripped out the FA20 engine, and replaced it with a heavily modified 2jz.







In its first outing the 2jz GT86 ran a respectable 11 second quarter mile, and recently has been clocked at 256km and recorded a 10.5 pass.

More recently the car has been tuned further and has a respectable 1086 HP at 740NM of torque.



Other impressive things regarding this build is the factory cluster / gauges all work along with the air conditioning. Whilst it isn't exactly what i'd describe as an OEM feel, it is still impressive.

I'm sure the car will continue to get quicker and quicker, but it is very good to know that the chassis is capable of handling such power.

I wonder how it would feel to drive not in the straight line.

I'd be like the Mercury motorsports Nitto R32 a PIG, but bloody fast.
