600hp Full Carbon Fiber Bodied Nissan GT-R To Debut Next Month

I have never been a fan of the Nissan GT-R R35. The design and abundance of electronics doesn’t do it for me, but this, now this is totally mean. It’s still a sketch as yet but it represents a new tuning proposal from Japan’s Original Runduce. It’s a full carbon-fiber bodied GT-R with a aggressive/gorgeous aero kit that bundles wider front and rear fenders, a new hood with several air intakes and a larger rear wing plus alloy wheels of which we have no information yet because for now, Original Runduce is keeping most details a secret. But what we do know is that the Japanese tuning firm massaged the VR38DETT powerplant to produce 600hp and the finished Nissan GT-R R35 is expected to make its debut at next month’s “Tokyo Auto Salon 2010″ in Japan.

More Rumours On The Return Of The Mazda RX-7

We’ve been hearing about it for nearly a year now but the rumours are still persistent and the latest gossips are yet again saying the same thing; the RX-8 is about to phased out to make way for the revival of the RX-7.

Digital Workchop: Rear engined 4WD WRX

We’ve always been a fan of photochopped works of art. Here’s one by  digimods.co.uk sharing their latest piece. A widebody track machine complete with rear engine conversion sending torque through a propshaft to the front wheels. finished with scoops of air intakes feeding and cooling the turbocharged lump. I particularly love the staggered BBS wheels. It may not be real but it’s too good not to be. Impressed, we decided to work on our project MINI too.

Honda HSV-10 GT Pre-Season Testing

More footage of the eagerly anticipated Honda HSV-10 GT – the spiritual successor to the legendary NSX. Though it shares nothing at all with the outgoing model, the HSV-10 GT has been tasked with succeeding the NSX’as legacy in the Japan Super GT Championship. And though there’s no news yet on whether or not the HSV-10 GT will make it to production, the fact can’t be discounted. The car is basically the same car that Honda was working on as a road-going large scale production model successor to the NSX, but the program was scrapped due to the economic crisis.

Now thanks to new Super GT rules, all cars will have to be front engine and rear wheel driven, effectively driving the NSX out of the race. Honda found some sort of a loophole in the rules and now leading Honda’s charge in the Super GT series will be the 500hp 3.4-liter V8  HSV-10 GT. Read more
