Goddamn I love Super GT. As if there could be nothing better than a Japanese sports car anyway, they go and build them all out of CF, make them wider than Rosie O’Donnell’s arse, tune the engines so they’re putting out the same power as a small star and then race them a super high [...]

As if the R35 GT-R couldn’t get any more insane, Nissan decides to go on and develop a V-Spec version. And that’s a good thing because as we all know, you can never, and I mean never, have too much power.
They’re currently testing the car at the infamous Nürburgring in Germany, where Nissan have set [...]

This is the new aero gear that Deck debuted for the Evo X recently and as you can see, it’s very subtle. Almost a little too subtle if you ask me.
All up there’s a front lip spoiler, carbon wing mirrors and a teeny-weenie rear spoiler (if you can call it that), which you can nab [...]

Sorry to any of the Evo X fanatics who read this blog, but I always have loved the CT9A series Evos and I can safely say I’d rather have one parked in my garage than one of the new series 10 Evolutions. Hey, that could just be my own misguided personal opinion, however its examples [...]

Though they’ve created a whole lot of body modification products for the new R35 GT-R including some stunning dry carbon parts, they’ve only just begun releasing some of the more nuts-and-bolts perfromance gear including their new engine computer for the car.
This is Amuse’s Hi-Tech ROM for the R35 which acts to raise the rev-limiter from [...]

This is Zele’s R35 GT-R demo car, showing off the new Zele body modifications they’ve produced for the machine. This orange beast is currently being shown at the Option Exiting Car Showdown (Banzai!) in Nagoya.
The colour of this thing is absolutely phenomenal and is almost identical to that of a 180SX owner I used to [...]

Got Evo? Want some pretty carbon things for it to make your brand new toy seem just a little bit more hardcore and JDM-ish? Well snap yourself up some of these CF extras from Ralliart.
At present you can get carbon replacements for the aircon surround panel, shift panel, a rather righteous single-din slot with space [...]

JUN have just stated on their site that the new range of aero parts they’ve developed during their extensive testing of the Evo X of late should be released soon. I don’t know exactly what time frame ’soon’ references, whether it be days, weeks or months, but I can only assume that soon does not [...]

Every so often you see a tuning house go semi-psychopathic on a car and rip it apart only to create an end result which barely resembles what they started with. Top Fuel’s carbon S2000 is one such result of over-engineering and insane levels of tuning, and a car which I have a whole lot of [...]

This tidy S15 is one of the demo cars of the Japan’s SunLine racing; not exactly a tuning house with the prestige of Top Secret, but well-known enough that they have a large enough following in Japan.
Extrenally, the car sports a C-West widebody kit, carbon GT-wing and set of beautifully-simple 17″ SSR Type-C wheels. The [...]
