WRC Impreza performance on snow

Snow and racing. Wild combination, no grip and no traction (I know, I broke my front front rim a week ago:)

I posted a comparison video some time ago between stock Subaru Impreza STI and Impreza STI WRC version. It was something for imagine the difference, but what do the experts say about WRC Impreza performance? Here’s an old video of WRC champion Tommi Makinen as a guest in Touge Showdown Special, driving around Keiichi Tsuchiya, Nobuteru Taniguchi and Manabu Orido. See what they have to say about it.

Techno Toy's Corolla AE86 with F20C Swap

Toyota Hachi-Roku with Honda's F20C engine? That's right, complete swap with all the accessories taken out from Honda S2000 and installed to AE86. Video from Hot Version: US Touge, Keiichi Tsuchiya and Manabu Orido are impressed. Car didn't make it to final because it has no LSD installed.

Comptech Honda NSX @ Willow Springs

Hot Version International 2007
NSX tuned by US Comptech. US tuners are known for their use of superchargers, unlike NA tuning that is mainstream in Japan.
Comptech specifications:
engine swap: Honda C32B (290hp in stock condition)
Comptech mods: Custom Supercharger, 3.0L head, headers, exhaust, Pro Shock suspension, brake kit and 4.23 final drive in 6-speed transmission.
Out of 6 US tuners, Comptech NSX got maximum points from drivers Tsuchiya and Orido although lap time 1:05:00 wasn't the best. But respect to Comptech guys, perfect setup of suspension on mid-engine car is the hardest.

J's Racing S2000 on the touge

How does the 1st generation of J's Racing Honda S2000 handle on the touge? It's designed to be a daily driver car with stereo and navigation system. Keiichi Tsuchiya is really impressed with cornering abilities of J's s2k. When he's suspiciously quiet while driving any car, that only means he really enjoys the drive. Taniguchi and Orido are also impressed with J's s2k, is it better than Amuse S2k?

Engine - F20C moded by J's racing - 280 horsepowers
ECU - J's Racing
Headers - Mugen
Exhaust - J's Racing

LSD - Cusco RS

Top Setup EG6: K20a engine swap from Honda DC5, n/a tuned with JDM parts... It produces 220hp and it's 910kg light. Drivers are Keiichi Tsuchiya and Manabu Orido, US touge by Hot Version. Could this US tuned EG6 be better than JDM Spoon?

Mine's Nissan R35 GT-R vs Spoon Honda NSX-R GT

Just some videos of new Nissan R35 tuned by MINE's in battle vs. Honda NSX-R tuned by Spoon, great video, great comparison of 2 very limited JDM tuned cars. Drivers are Daijiro Yoshihara (Mine's GT-R) and Tyler McQuarrie (Spoon NSX-R GT). Which one of those monsters would you prefer? I go for NSX-R :)

Amuse Supra vs Mine's Skyline BNR34

The new Toyota Supra project is also cancelled due to the financial crisis... it just sucks, it would be interesting to see battles of new Honda NSX, Toyota SUPRA and Nissan GT-R, looks like only GT-R is hitting our roads. I'm posting a video I just can't get tired of watching, although I've watched it 100 times. It's the battle of AMUSE SUPRA and MINE's Skyline GT-R 34. Drivers are Manabu Orido and the legendary drift king Keiichi Tsuchiya.
