The 2024 Bridgestone TOYOTA GAZOO Racing GR86/BRZ Cup was the twelfth running of the TGR GR86/BRZ Cup, a one-make motor racing championship for Toyota 86 and Subaru BRZ sports cars operated by Toyota Gazoo Racing.{{Cite web |title=GR86/BRZ Cup |url=https://toyotagazooracing.com/jp/86brz/ |access-date=1 March 2024 |website=Toyota Gazoo Racing |language=ja}} The championship featured a mix of Toyota factory drivers, independent professional drivers, and gentleman drivers, and commenced on 11 May at Sportsland SUGO before concluding on 24 November at Mobility Resort Motegi.
Tōgo Suganami dominated the season, taking a record-breaking six race victories, five pole positions, and seven podiums from the season's eight races to clinch his second championship title during the penultimate round at Suzuka. Defending champion Takuto Iguchi finished second, having scored less than half of Suganami's final points tally, with Iguchi and Takamitsu Matsui winning one race each.{{Cite web |date=25 December 2024 |title=記録ずくめだったプロフェッショナルの王者と最終戦までもつれ込んだクラブマンのチャンピオン争い |url=https://toyotagazooracing.com/jp/86brz/report/2024/07/report/ |access-date=10 January 2025 |website=Toyota Gazoo Racing |language=ja}}
