Spark Model's 1:43 replica captures one of the more distinctively backstoried entries in the 2025 Super GT GT300 grid: the Anest Iwata Racing Lexus RC F GT3, number 26, shared by Brazilian-Japanese driver Igor Fraga and veteran campaigner Hironobu Yasuda. The corporate blue-and-white livery of industrial equipment manufacturer Anest Iwata Corporation makes the car immediately identifiable on track and on the shelf.
The Lexus RC F GT3 is built by Toyota Gazoo Racing and TRD on the Z10-generation RC F coupe platform. First homologated for the 2017 season, the programme received the facelifted RC F body from 2019 onward. Power comes from TRD's GT3-prepared version of the 2UR-GSE 5.0-litre naturally aspirated V8 — an unusual configuration in a class dominated by turbocharged units — running under GT3 Balance of Performance regulations. The RC F GT3 is the sole Lexus model competing at international GT3 level, making it a singular entry for any Lexus or Toyota Gazoo Racing collection.
Fraga, Yasuda, and the Anest Iwata Livery
Igor Fraga brings an unusual duality to the Super GT paddock: a former Gran Turismo World Tour champion who crossed over into professional circuit racing, he now contests the GT300 class with a genuine competitive record in Japanese domestic series. His 2025 team-mate Hironobu Yasuda is a multi-season Super GT campaigner. Anest Iwata Corporation — a Japanese manufacturer of spray guns, compressors and coating equipment — has maintained a long-standing presence in Super GT GT300 as a team sponsor, and its blue-and-white corporate scheme has become a recognisable sight in the class across multiple seasons.
Spark Model in Resin at 1:43
Spark Model is a French manufacturer whose annual Super GT releases are among the most comprehensive in the 1:43 motorsport segment. The No. 26 entry is part of the SGT25 series — Spark's 2025 Super GT run — and follows the maker's established approach of resin construction with race-accurate livery decoration. The SKU convention 43SGT25026 encodes scale, series and car number, a system that makes grid-completion collecting straightforward. No opening parts are featured, consistent with Spark's standard 1:43 motorsport format.
Placing the No. 26 in Your Collection
The No. 26 Anest Iwata RC F GT3 sits naturally alongside other Spark Super GT GT300 releases from 2024 and 2025, where the Anest Iwata livery provides a thread of continuity across seasons. Collectors building a Toyota Gazoo Racing or Lexus motorsport shelf will find it a complement to the Toyota GR Supra GT500 entries. For collectors drawn to the Fraga crossover narrative, pairing this car with any of his earlier Japanese single-seater entries creates a coherent driver-focused display. The resin format and consistent Spark finishing standards ensure it sits evenly with the rest of any 1:43 Super GT grid.
