JAKARTA - There is something interesting in this 2023 US-based international modification exhibition, namely the Speciality Equipment Market Association (SEMA) Show 2023, which is again exhibited by Toyota 86 which was modified with an LS3 engine which was in the spotlight of last year's SEMA exhibition.

Toyota 86 is a compact sports car from collaboration between Toyota and Subaru which went globally on sale in 2012 ago. This time at SEMA 2023, Toyota 86 returned with various improvements and improvements that made it even more stunning. Unfortunately, even though it can be driven, this cool modified car does not get a driving license on the highway.

The Toyota 86 on display was built and owned by Cameron Cocalis, a 22-year-old young man and is Cocalis' first project. And he modifies being powered by a Chevrolet LS3 V8 engine. His achievement is to put such a large engine into the limited engine space at Toyota 86 is an extraordinary engineering feat.

Last year, quoted from Carbuzz, November 3, this car uses a black wheel with a glossy silver coated rim. Cocalis noted that he managed to add a special touch to the wheels. In addition, the car is now using a custom widebody design from Street Hunter Designs.

"This car still maintains the same essence, only smoother, with more carbon, better aesthetic design work, and a better overall. I am very enthusiastic," Cocalis wrote on her personal Instagram.

Behind the familiar body display, there is an extraordinary design. Cocalis has documented the process of building this car on social media, which of course attracts attention to those interested in unique engineering. For example, this young automotive fan created a rear tube frame for a custom back suspension and even created a new front end of the tube to support the heavier engine.

This modified car with an LS3 V8 engine was not revealed, but it will certainly be bigger than the standard engine found in the original 86 coupe. This small Toyota was never known as a fast car on the straight track; even the latest GR86 could be left behind the Prius Prime.
