The
2013 Tokyo Auto Salon was larger then ever
(over 280,000 visitors) thanks to the popularity of the Toyota 86
(Scion FR-S) and Subaru BRZ. So large in fact, there was a special
86 & BRZ WORLD exhibit.
(according to SpeedHunters there were 91 86/BRZ/FR-S at the show) In addition to exhibiting the newly revised
GReddy FR-S with it's
T518Z Turbo Kit.
GReddy was involved in some very special builds for TAS 2013. Below are a few
GReddy highlights from the show...

The talk of the show was definitely the GReddy Twin
-Turbocharged,
BenSopra 380SX. The car is being built to challenge the the infamous
Nardo Ring High Speed Challenge, in Italy this March. The 180SX chassis has twin GReddy TD06H-25G turbochargers as well as a host of other
GReddy R35 RX products for it's VR38DETT engine. The 380SX aero is designed by Mr Miura of
Rocket Bunny.

Some other stand outs for us were the
BenSopra Drift R35 GT-R in the D1GP booth and the ultra clean Friends Racing Silvia S15.

Another exciting vehicle was in the
Top Secret, Japan booth, the classic Top Secret gold on the molded-in
GReddy X Rocket Bunny kitted 86 looked great. And under the hood was just as special, with a Top Secret X GReddy collaboration on an externally wastegated turbo kit.
