Default One serious aristo...

http://page8.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/h39825096

while looking for a second aristo for my Fiance, I came across this. It's got the works, 900ps (close enough to 900hp), 6 speed - the lot!

This is a car to aspire to!

Default pic of a custom down pipe 4" coated.

great link! wish it can be translated. it would be nice to know the technical specs. courious if this is a fully built bottom half, ported head and valve size, fule injectors, and ecu. AND EXHAUST.

thats the hks T51 SPL sames as the one on mine. We think we can get 800+ on pumped gas 93 oct, w/race 110 close to 900 rwhp w/a 3sp race at tranny. were getting close. with spay no question 900+ can be reached.

check out that hood it looks like carbon fiber. nice paint too. the kit looks like HIRO

hood is unique and its the first I've ever seen one for the JZS147.

raceone in Cali was inquired if there's a demand for the CF hood but didn't get much response. I'd want a custom one that allowed air flow to keep the engine comparment cooler but no holes on top that would allow water to pass into the engine bay or collect in pools.

I just noticed no sun roof on that car either.

my hood may look like that soon.. I can get that vent from Kure Intl for about 100.00.

Right now i have a vent cut in the hood about a foot up from the frt grille. it is necessary for my current setup.

The driveability of that car would suck. Look at all the ignition drop outs on the dyno chart. It's missing like crazy until the boost comes on. I always admire hard work, but that particular ride wouldn't be my cup of tea.

open the link, right click on the page and have it translate for you. it kind of works and give you an idea of what they are saying...

plenty of translators out there, as okiaristo says - I have a couple of translator extensions in firefox where I can just right click and translate from jap to english. Otherwise, you can go to translate.google.com and put the url in and then hit translate
