Here we go...

hmmm... I wonder how these fenders would fit/look on a Z31...?

ReaperBJJ · 01-12-2013, 10:14 AM

i love every single thing about this car... I've wondered what a spoiler like that would look like on a hatch ever since i saw their GT-R.... beastly.

ghoti · 01-12-2013, 12:48 PM

Why does that car look so angry?

What did they do to it.....

bkt808 · 01-13-2013, 01:58 PM

anyone find out what trans is it using?

s14unimog · 01-14-2013, 12:42 PM

Right the **** on. Best looking s13 I've seen in a minute. That's tough.

PeaceOnesxWai · 01-14-2013, 06:09 PM

Drools

Hopefully this is not the finished product either

simmode1 · 01-14-2013, 10:37 PM

^^^I doubt it is. We all know this thing is gonna get slathered all over magazine covers everywhere and it ain't quite ready for that in these pics. Let's just be patient.

Hands down the best S-Chassis since the Touge Factory S13, the FullRace R14 and Scorch Racing S15 , IMO.

Aroddalobster · 01-15-2013, 01:38 PM

Since D1 car makers are in love with it, my money's on a holinger sequential tranny. I think Blitz's rwd r35 also used a holinger.

gbaby2089 · 01-15-2013, 01:53 PM

Even uglier than the regular Rocket Bunny/6666/TRA Kyoto/etc. kit.

surge s14 · 01-15-2013, 02:05 PM

I hate the hood other then that I dig it.

Teddy · 01-15-2013, 02:19 PM

Pretty fucking ugly.

blueshark123 · 01-16-2013, 01:27 PM

renderings were 10x better. But still crazy everything in it.

My thoughts exactly. Why is this stuff popular?

So now there is this..
SPEED CHALLENGER: THE BENSOPRA 380SX - Speedhunters

Car of the year.

one word... DAMN!!!!

T chop · 01-17-2013, 01:30 PM

It would like it a lot better if it was gloss white instead of satin and remove the carbon vinyl from the roof. I'll wait till it's done though.

Couldn't they have used an aeromotive stealth with an extra or bigger fuel pump? Would have looked a lot cleaner and safer.

unwtdhero · 01-17-2013, 02:24 PM

It reminds me of the dentsport hatch.... i likey

jamg · 01-17-2013, 02:30 PM

i LOVE the rear end. even without the rear bumper. so looks friggin mean and aggressive.

DJPimpFlex · 01-17-2013, 02:49 PM

I like the look but its not the bees knees. 1100+ hp is rad though.

PrimeDirective · 01-17-2013, 06:23 PM

I think everything about this is cool, especially from a marketing standpoint. I love the wheels and the 295s all around, I love the engine and the power its making, but I am a little concerned about that car with that cage and that aero doing 200+ MPH. I hope they have done some CFD to verify this thing has the downforce to handle those speeds!

lewisfk · 01-17-2013, 09:56 PM

Some say its ugly, ok! I say its a fuckin MONSTER! mmm cookie

zerofighter · 01-18-2013, 07:38 AM

I think it's awesome to say the least. And yea all questions are answered about it's purpose, gearbox, mods, exhaust & lack of rear bumper in that Speedhunters article so check it out. Was going to post it but got beat to it lol.

simmode1 · 01-18-2013, 10:10 AM

I still can't wait to see it in it's completed form, but at least now we know why it doesn't have its hatch and quarter windows installed. I think they should still leave the rear bumper off. That, combined with the exposed tires from the recessed overfenders is the most aggressive combo I've ever seen on an S13.

I'm not in love with the hood, but I understand it's purpose and functionality. This thing is like the Dent Sports Garage S13 gone SSJ3...

according to the article, a hollinger.

they say that this engine was yanked from the old blitz d1 car (that afaik never made it past some early testing)

can we talk about brakes here for a minute??? if you're planning to run 250mph, ya may want a bit more rotor than just z32.... hopefully that will get resolved now that TAS is over

personally i like some aspects of the styling, but the front is

i dig the fender flares and super-minimal sideskirts.

the wheel/tire combo is amazing.

the only reason i approve of the project overall is that it is going to nardo.

PrimeDirective · 01-18-2013, 01:50 PM

They said the car is not done yet and its of those dude's old drift car. I think in the comments Dino said they had plans to upgrade the brakes.

Extreme Dimensions · 01-18-2013, 02:54 PM

Beautiful car.. I want!

cchondro · 01-18-2013, 03:35 PM

I still can't get over at how hideous that hood is
everything else about that car is beautiful except that
just my 2 cents
but that rear end is

TMShadow · 04-10-2013, 09:22 AM

All you idiots talk about this car like they don't know what they are doing. It really is funny and especially the guy talking about the fuel pump who probably never even seen anything larger than a 255lph.
