lol, that will make a huge amount of drag. I wouldn't think that thing could do more then 115 mph with all that down force

I think that I have a few more pictures of that laying around. Pretty funny looking. Nice find though! Can anyone translate the page?

I can for some of it. The car is running with a 13b and was formally a gt car which was converted to drag car. the ad says I think ( a couple of the Kanji are confusing me) that the car can do about 150 mph... also I looked at the car closely and found that the huge body on that thing is a kit, you can tell by the original body still being intact underneath....

Thats right boys and girls. I speak Japanese, so if you've got some really cool rare stuff that's JDM and are trying to figure out something specific give me a ring, I will help if I can.

Sweet! When I was at RE-Amemiya I got a chance to talk to a couple of the biulders and found out that they really like the 2mm seals. They say that the reduced friction is essential for enduro events and overall reliability. They HATE heavily modded bodies, say its to detrimental the the weight/rigidity of the body...

cool, japan would be neat to see...



those two cars in the links are the lemans cars from i think 82? so they need the long tail for the aero.



PP 13b.... they ran the SA until 82-83
