SARD MC8-R
Category GT1
Engine Toyota 1UZ-FE 3968 cc twin turbo
Transmission Hewland VGC (1995), March (1996) 6 (1995), 5 (1996)

The Sard MC8-R was a modified and lengthened version of the SW20 built for GT racing by Toyota’s works team SARD (Sigma Advanced Research Development). The MC8-R housed a twin turbo version of the 1UZ-FE V8 giving out 600bhp.Eligible for the GT1 category, the MC8-R lacked pace against the new generation sports cars and homologation specials such as Porsche 911 GT1, but did compete alongside a similarly modified Toyota Supra. Later that year the car attempted the 1000km Suzuka, this time managing to finish. The MC8-R made its first outing in the 1995 24 Hours of Le Mans where it retired after 14 laps. It was replaced for the following year with the GT-One.

One MC8 road car was built in order to meet homologation requirements, but its current whereabouts are unknown.

Ummm… Que yo sepa los MR2 mas exclusivos que hay son los 10th Anniversary Edition de los que solo se hicieron 250 ejemplares en 1996, todos en gris plata y solo para el mercado japones. Traian llantas pintadas en gunmetal, suspension Blistein, volante MOMO, asientos Recaro, los amblemas en negro y un llavero muy molon en cuero.

-Catalogo

-Detalle de logo con su numero de serie

Luego en UK sacaron tambien otros 10th pero esos eran Rev.3 normales con cuatro pijadas colocadas en el mismo concesionario, aun asi solo añadiriamos 150 mas…

Pd.: El llavero del 10th esta wapisimo, yo he pedido uno y esta al caer… pero como siempre hay que pagar cantidades absurdas de dinero por ello.

A sus órdenes

SW20 TRD2000GT
In 1998, Toyota Racing Development offered an official kit body conversion and tuning program for MR2 owners to transform their existing SW20 MR2 into a widebody TRD2000GT kit replica car. This was to pay homage to the wins by their TRD2000GTs in the GT-C Japanese racing series, the TRD2000GT racing series cars were based on the SW20 floorpan. Toyota also did the same with their Supra Twin Turbo model, offering a conversion service to transform these cars into a TRD3000GT.

TRD2000GT. Notice the wider, more aggressive stance.In order to ensure exclusivity, a high price tag was charged and total of just 35 factory car conversions were completed by Toyota Technocraft Ltd. Each official Technocraft car converted was made using lightweight fibreglass components (in place of heavy steel original parts: front fenders, trunk lid extension, rear quarter panels, gas door, front and rear bumpers, 3-piece wing) and re-classified as completely new cars (with their own specially numbered TRD VIN plate riveted to the body to indicate their authenticity and rarity).

The Toyota Technocraft Ltd. TRD2000GT had a 60 mm (2.4 in) wider front and rear track (due to the addition of wider wheels and tires) which improved handling considerably over the original equipment. Virtually every car converted also had other TRD parts fitted too including extensive changes to both the suspension and engine. Most cars left the factory making more power due to TRD bolt-ons, some cars even left the factory boasting up to 500 PS (493 hp/368 kW) and less than 1100 kg (2425 lb) for a very impressive power to weight ratio. While TRD Japan only offered a small number of kits with all body parts required for third-party conversion, Toyota Technocraft Ltd. offered complete car conversions.

Only 3 complete Toyota Technocraft Ltd. cars are known to have been shipped into Europe with only 10 complete cars allocated to TRD USA for the entire American market. This makes these officially built Toyota Technocraft Ltd. TRD2000GTs the rarest of all MR2s and ultimately the most sought after and difficult to find. It is unknown how many original Toyota Technocraft Ltd. cars still exist today, but it is known that a small number of conversion kits were imported from TRD Japan into the US for USDM Conversions. Now there are officially no more TRD 2000GT body kits sold on the TRD USA website, so finding one may be difficult (The alternative to this kit is said to be the TD3000 bodykit by Extreme Dimensions). In many respects the extended body can be compared to that of a Porsche Turbo widebody. The car track width is extended and body dimensions dramatically changing the cars overall visuals, giving the car a “supercar” look, and also better handling and weight reduction. Very little is known about these cars outside of Japan.

Xzibit · 9 Febrero, 2009 17:13

Menos mal que no cambiaste ese verde “feo” cuando pintaste,si no ya solo 999 premiun edition,jajajaaja

alex · 9 Febrero, 2009 20:15

No lo cambies, Lento!!! Ese verde “feo” es precioso!!! Uno de los colores mas elegantes que conozco para el SW20.

javierMKI · 9 Febrero, 2009 21:21

No creo que lo cambie, además le pega todo al dueño: elegante pero cañero jajajaja

Xzibit · 10 Febrero, 2009 08:23

“Cambiaste” es pasado,el coche ya esta pintado en el color original,y no se va a cambiar,pero creo que en su momento hubo algunas dudas.

EL_LENTO · 10 Febrero, 2009 10:36

Supongo que fué lo típico cuando vas a pintar el coche entero por primera vez…y si lo pinto de otro color???. Afortunadamente me hice caso a mí mismo y lo dejé en su color. Y no sabía que era un modelo tan exclusivo!!! jejejeje

Isra · 10 Febrero, 2009 19:38

Creo k Alfonso me dijo algo sobre k mi coche tb tenia algo de aniersario y eso. Por el color azulado con reflejos morados y las llantas pulidas.

alfonso · 10 Febrero, 2009 21:01

[quote=“Isra”]Creo k Alfonso me dijo algo sobre k mi coche tb tenia algo de aniersario y eso. Por el color azulado con reflejos morados y las llantas pulidas.[/quote] si señor, tb es un décimo anievesario solo venian en dos colores, gris con llantas oscuras y en azul caribe con llantas pulidas.

ThE_GhOsT · 11 Febrero, 2009 14:17

Entonces tienes un 10th europeo (solo 150 unidades) o por lo menos las llantas y el color coinciden, tambien deberia llevar el volante que aparece en este folleto y la insignia con el numero de serie en el capot

alfonso · 11 Febrero, 2009 14:42

Eso ya no lo sé… no he visto el coche enpersona.
