What massive wheel wells. The motor setups is definitely unique. I see a tranny adapter. Is it running some kind of manual tranny with a sequential shifter?

Cool build...sucks that they might have painted over RSP (look at the first three pictures) could have been another blue, I can't tell.

That's something you dont see everyday. But who in their right mind would ruin an original (assuming from the pics) RSP? loving the engine setup though.

I saw this car in person at HIN Night Shift a few weeks ago and was not impressed with the body work, the wheel fitment is way off and the tires were stretched lol. Looks like they built this in a hurry. I never saw any dyno or track numbers for the last blue one they built I liked that setup much better.

I love the motor setup... do we know what mission the car is using?

All that money/time invested and ****ty wheel fitment... wheels in general. They look like tenzo's lol.

Car is nice none the less.

Nice motor not feeling the outside tho. Interior is straight track use only. I'd paint it black and get some better wheels.

I cant get over the wheel fitment like many others. You spend $2900 on the kit alone and then but a crappy set of wheels. I mean seriously volk stock Ueno spec wheels now. Ebay have better than Ueno spec wheels for like $2400 we're talking SP1's full polish with like -25 offset 18x13.

Why Fail so badly.

It's actually the same blue NOS car. It was redone. The 1JZ was pulled in favor of the V8 from the Tundra.

And I believe it was a different shade of blue not RSP.
