Continual Improvements, Kaizan in Motion...

Just like the IS-F Yaguchi has made it clear he intends to continuously improve the RC-F from inception to death.

“We are already thinking about some changes to make for next year,” he confirmed via an interpreter.

“The objective is to make the car more fun to drive. If you make the car go too fast then the human being won’t be able to catch up with it.

Intriguingly, he did concede there was more power to be eked from the engine, without resorting to forced induction.

“We think we can get a little more out of it,” he said.

“It’s really about increasing the rpm to be able to gain more horsepower, so if we were to increase the rpm then we would have to look at using what components to be able to meet the rpm increase… so at that time we would also have to review the cost etcetera. So right now it is set.”

good to know they're going to do that
i always though it's what lexus wanted to do with any of their cars.
can't wait to see what changes happens.
Anyone have any predictions of what we could see change with the next iteration of the RC-F? How are they going to increase the rpm?

I doubt increasing RPM is a concern for them
