Subaru Tecnica International to Race Subaru BRZ in 2012 Super GT Series


The 2013 Subaru BRZ sports coupe may have debuted only a few days ago, but this fully race-prepped version sat alongside the stock car at the Tokyo auto show. Having already driven the BRZ in Tokyo, we can say that it packs some serious cred in production trim, but the race car assuredly will be on a whole different level. Subaru charged its STI motorsport subsidiary with creating a BRZ eligible to compete in the GT300 class of the 2012 Japanese Super GT series.



Subaru hasn’t released much information on the BRZ racer, but we do know the car will retain a boxer four: Scope the “Proud of Boxer” decals on the front and rear bumpers. The civilian BRZ’s four-cylinder makes 200 hp, and as for the racer’s output, the “300” in GT300 refers to the class’s maximum allowable horsepower. The extra 100 horses should make for some serious speed in this stripped-out track version. Until Subaru announces more details, feast your eyes on a few photos of the BRZ GT300 from the Tokyo auto show.
