Description

The TYPE 12 and its Swan Neck variant (SN) are precision-engineered aerodynamic components designed to fulfill a specific and demanding niche: delivering substantial downforce with lower drag than larger wings, particularly for lightweight, agile platforms like the Toyota 86 and Subaru BRZ. When these cars are equipped with high-grip tires and underbody aero, the TYPE 12 provides the exact balance needed. It utilizes an efficient, time attack-derived airfoil shrunk to a compact size, and features a unique “Gull Wing” end tip design—chosen over small end plates for aerodynamic advantage and styling. The Swan Neck version offers reduced aerodynamic interference for even cleaner performance.

Product Highlights

🎯 Fills a Precise Performance Niche
Engineered for drivers of 86/BRZ platforms with high-grip tires and underbody modifications who need more downforce than a TYPE 10 but with less drag and bulk than a full-scale GT wing.

✈️ Efficient, Compact Time Attack Airfoil
Uses a scaled-down version of a proven time attack wing profile, maximizing downforce generation while minimizing frontal area and drag—ideal for momentum cars.

🕊️ Gull Wing End Tip Design
Employs a swept, integrated end tip instead of a traditional end plate. This design maintains aerodynamic effectiveness while allowing for a cleaner, more integrated appearance on narrower wings.

🦢 Clean Aerodynamics with Swan Neck (SN Variant)
The SN version utilizes a top-mounted swan neck bracket to eliminate airflow disruption under the wing, further increasing efficiency and providing a premium, race-bred aesthetic.

Remarks

🔧 Fixed Bracket Height (TYPE 12)
The standard TYPE 12 uses vehicle-specific dedicated brackets with a fixed, non-adjustable height. Ensure compatibility with your desired fitment and vehicle stance.

✅ Ideal for Prepped 86/BRZ & Lightweight RWD Cars
Specifically developed to address the aerodynamic needs of modified lightweight rear-wheel-drive cars where balanced, efficient downforce is critical for lap times.

⚠️ Optimization Requires Matching Vehicle Mods
To achieve its intended performance benefit, the vehicle should already have supporting modifications such as performance tires, suspension, and often complementary front aero for balance.
