The GT500 Lamborghini Diablo that also competed in the 24 Hours of LeMans |
A drift RWD converted WRX | The Wedsport GT300 car | A drifting Hatchi |
A Group N Civic racer | This really cool S2000 was in the Mugen booth; unfortunately I didn't get the details of it. |
LMP1 racecar Mugen powered |
This is a special Mugen model Civic that will be offered for sale | JUN EJ20 Subie motor with an angle mount T88 turbo with external wastegatecar | This privately owned Supra has a functional GT500 inspired bodykit |
Clean S15 | A nice example of an FD. I could not belive the strong following the FD has here even after more than 10 years have passed since it went out production. I bet every FD ever made has been modified |
Mildly tuned NA RX-8 | Privately owned Subie |
I almost walked right past this MR-S | But then I noticed the ITB equipped K20A in the back of it. I bet that this is a really cool swap that matches the capability of the chassis with a decent engine. |
RX-8 time attack car. The RX-8 has not developed the same following as the FD | One of the few Z32's I saw in Japan. The Z32 is not a popular car here. |
Another really nice FD with a V Mount intercooler | A close up of the engine compartment |
I can't for the life of me remember what this car is called. It races in GT300, I think it's called a Veryion or something. |
Another FD with a V mount intercooler. The V mount is supposed to improve cooling by allowing an unobstructed flow of air to the radiator | A time attack RX-8 |
Attack of the killer B Segments. A Toyota Yaris with a turbo Celica engine in it | A tricked out Fit |
A drift Z33 | I liked this really clean and understated time attack EVO. I guess if you look closely it really isn't that understated. |
Nice WRX | The Varis ASSO EVO. No kidding it is really called this. ASSO must be something else in Jinglish |
Look closely at this Toyota Starlet | There is a turbo Nissan CA18DET in the engine bay |
Cool Products
These are some of the cool JDM trends I noted while dodging camera boys. It seems that only a few people were actually actively pursuing the booths for CAR stuff.
