Front Bumper Spoiler

  • Inheriting the look of successive HKS time attack machines, it gives the GR Corolla a powerful impression.
  • Carbon fiber barge panels are attached to both ends, providing ideal airflow streamlining and a subtle racing look.
  • With an additional 45mm extension, the GR Corolla looks even more powerful.

●Performance

  • In terms of performance, the approach from the front to the under-panel streamlines the passing air.
  • Various shapes and projections were considered through CFD analysis, resulting in a shape that reduces drag and improves downforce.

Side Skirt

  • Simple side skirts are designed to balance with the stock body design.
  • While the concept is simplicity, the front is stylish so that the balance can be seen when standing next to the vehicle.
  • The rear area is shaped to affix the HKS emblem.

Rear Spoiler

  • A simple rear spoiler has been installed to balance with the stock body design.
  • While keeping with the concept of simplicity, a diffuser-shaped fin has been installed on the underside, creating a design that is connected to the stock diffuser.

Wing Rear

  • An impressive wing is set to match the stock wide body.
  • The beauty of the design is created by one-piece molding of FRP.
  • The wing also aims for low drag and high downforce, with its position and angle optimized through CFD analysis.
  • It is designed to be lower than the stock shark antenna so as not to change the overall height.

●Performance

  • In terms of performance, various positions and angles were considered and selected using CFD analysis to ensure that the air passing through the roof could be effectively directed under the wing.
  • Smoke was used in a wind tunnel test to confirm that the wing shape was in line with the design intent.

Checking the rectified flow visualization with smoke.

●Product Test (comparison with and without Body Kit) at FUJI SPEEDWAY

The following are the differences with and without the Body Kit:

  • Stability during braking is improved.
  • Understeer is suppressed and the effect is milder.
  • Rear stability is improved.
  • Controllability at the limit is gentler, making it easier to drive.
  • Repeated tests at speeds of over 200km/h have been conducted to ensure strength.
