Car Spotlight>> Rps13 At Suzuka Twin

During my time in Japan, I made sure to grab handfuls of car spotlights to show you what their grassroots scene is up to. To be honest, the amount of S-chassis in the Suzuka Twin paddock made it quite difficult to choose which car to spotlight. Eventually I opted for this one because of its uniqueness. 

Many of the privateer cars run mismatched wheels, and this 180SX had AVS Model 5s on the front.

The interior is made up from the bare essentials – Nardi steering wheel, handbrake button…

…A full set of Defi gauges on the dash…

…And also some other luxury add-ons such as this cup holder on the passenger's door.

A full roll cage, a Bride driver's seat and a Recaro passenger's seat.

Underneath the bonnet what looked to be a mildly modified SR20DET…

…equipped with an aftermarket HKS GT2835 turbo kit.

Stickers were kept to a minimum, but on the rear bar was this Blitz URAS decal. 

I'm sure you S-chassis lovers will be able to pick the body-kit on this machine right? 

I just had to grab a token photo of the driver's belongings as the sun was setting in the distance.

the FD2R spoiler on the back sits pretty well and almost look like it was built for it tooo, nice I like it

4

Nice Alfa Sterring Wheel :)

This car is almost perfect. I would love to have a s13 like that, it has just the right amount of rice about it to make it pop out. Sure I would paint matte white with a gloss black roof, and of course i would change the wheels (Enkei NT03+M, love), but that is about it. Interior is lovely, performance oriented but still comfortable. I'll say it again I really really want to have a car like this for a canyon carver

Nice, clean, clean, i mean clean and sexyyy. Siiick stuffff. Nice job.

7

"full roll cage" lol. I'm trying to like it, but no. I just can't. Ricer is the word that comes to my mind.

8

why does the steering wheel have an Alfa badge on it?!

i cant believe how well that integra wing fits and looks on it, actually one of the best spoilers ive seen on a s13 hatchback

16

Alfa? haha sick

17

Proof that Speedhunters misses the mark on occasion.

18

The wing and tail lights ruin it with too much of a honda ricer vibe, apart from that, i love it...minus the wheels

19

Not sure what there rambuling on about it being a ricer cancel that noise!!! Granted the tail lights could be different but other then that Great Car Build For Fun!!!The way driving should be!!!
