Toda Racing Lightweight Flywheel for Suzuki Swift
Using it’s vast experience of developing flywheels for TODA race programmes, Toda Racing has come to fully understand the most desirable characteristics required for the ultimate flywheel.
Along with a wealth of racing experience, Toda uses CAD solid modelling work stations to further reduce stress and to improve weight distribution and inertia.
The production of a Toda chrome moly flywheel is broken down into several sections. Firstly the basic flywheel shape is machined out, then the 1st of the two heat treatment processes is carried out, which hardens the chrome moly, it is then slowly cooled to restore flexibility, after which the final detail machine work is carried out. With finally the 2nd and 3rd heat treatment giving the clutch face and ring gear greater wear durability and rust prevention.
Weighing in at a only 3.5kg with 0.31 inertia, the Toda racing flywheel provides better engine acceleration and response.

Katana Supercharger System for Honda CR-Z!
We’re really pleased to be given exclusivity on the supercharger systems developed by Mugen Euro for the Honda CR-Z, which was formerly only available via the franchised Honda dealer network.
The supercharger systems have been rebranded as “Katana” to comply with contractual conditions, and we’ve also managed to reduce the price from what it was perviously.
At approximately 175hp with super smooth torque delivery, in our opinion this is probably the best supercharger system available for the CR-Z as it benefits from the heavy investment necessary to make it an “OE fit” by Mugen Euro. If you’re interested in a supercharger system for your CR-Z, this is the one to go for!

Toda Racing Throttle Body for GT86 and Impreza BRZ!
Toda Racing has just launched it’s new big throttle body for the Toyota GT86 and Subaru Impreza BRZ.
Increasing the diameter of the throttle and in combination with a tapered entrance helps to increase the amount of air the engine can breathe, giving improved performance. The internal dimensions of the throttle valve diameter are increased from 65mm to 68mm, and the tapered entrance starting at a diameter of 72mm all maximum size provides an increas in area of 9%.
With the throttle controlled via drive by wire, the throttle shaft has not been modified to be thinner ; this is to increase the life of the single throttle body by retaining a more rigid shaft. To compensate for this the throttle diameter was enlarged to be the maximum possible size.

New TODA ‘High Power’ performance exhausts for the Honda NSX from Torque Developments (TDi plc)
Honda’s NSX is the stuff of legend. Developed with input from Ayrton Senna, produced by Honda for 15 years with only minor changes, it’s the Japanese supercar that shook the Italians and forced them to raise their game.
Which means that when it comes to fitting a NSX with performance exhaust it needs to be a top quality item befitting of the Honda supercar’s legend – which is where Japanese tuning house TODA Racing comes in.
It’s just launched a new range of ‘High Power’ exhausts for both the 3.0-litre (C30A, 270bhp,) and 3.2-litre (C32B, 290bhp) variants of the Honda NSX.
Featuring an innovative ‘X-pipe’ between the two silencer boxes to minimise back pressure and maximise the aural experience from the NSX’s high revving V6 engine, the TODA ‘High Power’ exhaust features 60mm diameter internal tubing and slash cut round tailpipes boasting a smart titanium blue finish.
Surely these TODA exhausts are perfect for any discerning Honda NSX owner and they are available now from TODA Europe, priced at £2025.00 excluding taxes.
