The Scion tC is a 2-door coupé made for the US market and powered by a 2.4-litre DOHC VVT-i engine with 118 kW (161 hp) in standard form.
This particular Scion tC, however, is an entirely different proposition altogether after aftermarket tuner RS*R work a
As a front-wheeler from the factory, one of the first things RS*R did was convert the tC into rear-wheel drive plus fitting a BEAMS-built 3SGE engine and taking advantage of the Toyota Avensis/Caldina all-wheel drive chassis on which the tC is built. On top of that, a HKS GT3037 turbo and intercooler, Blitz Dual SBC boost controller, and AEM EMS engine management system and has been added to boost power up to more than 294 kW (400 hp).
Other specifics include a G-Force five-speed sequential transmission, Tilton triple carbon clutch, Project Mu brakes, RS-R coilovers, Sparco Corsa seats and a custom concept wide body kit.
The RS*R Scion tC is piloted by Ken Gushi, the youngest driver ever to compete in the D1 series.
