well Super GT (GT 500 class) are claimed to be the quickest GT cars in the world... "The mines GTR" is based on a modified street car and retains rego and a majority of standard body parts. a GT car is a 100% race car. This years GT500 class NSX are running turbos now too...

yeah, understand that. Just didnt realise how quick they actually were. I mean the Mines GTR is no slouch, it's a fckn quick car, but damn, those gt500 cars are insane

Race spec brake pads sometimes squeal because of the composition of them..its normal

I'm not sure what you mean by race spec brake pads, but the pads i run and others i track day with don't squeal like that when under heavy braking, under light braking yeah for sure... but when stomping on the brakes you don't normally give them a chance to squeel... i'm probably wrong tho :thumbsup:

my carbon/ceramic composite pads squeal like a bitch, cold/hot hard track braking/soft street braking doesn't matter. it sounds like a train. :thumbsup:

other race type pads I have had didn't do it, but these particular ones do. when up to temp though they still pull up nicely.

NSX does quite well, but it also has 50kg extra ballast compared to the rest as it is an MR. This years NSXs went back to 3.5L NA engines instead of 3L twin turbos though, or maybe they changed during the year or something, eitherway, they are running the NA engine now instead of the turbo. Seems like an odd choice...

A video of a JGTC NSX vs a Road Car?

How about they compare the last JGTC GTR running a VQ VS the JGTC NSX?

I'd like to see some holden and ford V8 supercars there as well showing their weight transfer

on the corner s :(

That would be an interesting race...

The footage is of Hot Version International 01 DVD; SPECIAL RUN IN TSUKUBA for Keiichi ‘Drift King’ Tsuchiya bids farewell to his professional racing career. He was trying to set an all time lap record in his ARTA NSX GT500.

      Went to a drift practice day at a local circuit (held on the reserve parking area behind the grandstand) for the first time in about 15 years. Some kei cars were drifting as well, a not so surprising Suzuki Carry truck, and two 1st gen Daihatsu Copens that were converted to rear wheel drive(!) using Daihatsu Boon X4 transfer case, prop shaft and rear diff, obviously omitting the front driveshafts. They looked really fun to slide. I heard that they cost "about half" as much as a Nissan Silvia etc to run.  On the track 'Tech M' a local BMW tuning garage had a customer track day. Mainly recent models but there was one E36 which looked ancient among all the current models. It was cool watching the drifting and then turning around and seeing random people thrashing their M3/4s  central-circuit-drift-practice-2025-05-18-long-yt.mp4

      Upgrade an rb25neo

      By Tekitsune · Posted

      I would like to keep it around 15k but if I need more to make it reliable and not have to worry about the car breaking I can go more. It's my project car so I'm just trying g to figure out what needs to be in it i know basic things like turbo cams injectors I'm just unsure of the size and the specifics so I'm spending alot of time on Google and its mostly rb25 and rb26 not alot on neo

      This. They would need some tricky maneouvering to keep the income out of the country (the US). Which isn't helpful if that's where you want the income to end up.
