The base car is built at Takaoka in Japan, but the turbo, intercooler, heavy duty brake pads and clutch are added at Shinmei near where the cars are loaded on the boat to Australia. T-CAM in Sydney then fits stiffer springs, alloys and the locally-developed bodykit. T-CAM did much of the development work in Australia before it was all signed off by headquarters in Japan. The Sportivo's twin-port installation process is a first for Toyota, and the company says it could have global potential.
