Its all been lightened and balanced, mild cams i think, head ports tidied, up, but tis all pretty standard TBH.

Reason its fast and revs like that is cause its got the mega low ratio front and rear diffs.
Its fucking light, and a mega well set up track car.

Its not as if its some super response beast people think, ignore the comments and watch the rev counter, it still is sluggish as hell upto about 3.5k and is caught below the powerband a few times on the vid.

Also helps the hosts of the show TOTALLY go over the top with bullshit making out its faster than the Skyline JTCC cars they drive and other stuff.

Never let entertainment get in the way of facts eh
It was still over 3s a lap faster than the HKS VVT car . Have you got a link to some nice static pictures, I want new wallpaper for the PC to drool over ? Are there any liners to have bettered the 1.00 dead time it did on that circuit?
