I have not been a fan of Mr. Amemiya's FD styling the past few years. But I think I like this new one. Such a fast car, why doesnt anyone in the US strive to build such great street cars!?

Even funnier is that the roles were switched this time. Typically the FD driver puts in a lot of input keeping the car straight around the course, but this time he looked like he was taking a stroll while the GT-R was steering all over the place.

Im sure i read somewhere that the twins are modified stock units, and the larger porting is very mild. But that was on the blue Super G touge car. I don't know if they are using a similar setup for the green car, especially since they are producing a bit more power in it than previous years.

If i find the engine set up ill post it.

This was taken from the RE website, they didn't list to much as far as the engine.

I translated just the engine portion to the best of my ability.

This Green FD3S Hill Climb car is called Satan Rise 7 (or Satan's Resurrection 7). Its their current 9th demo car for the hill.

HP: 394.52
TQ: 339.81
Boost Presure - 14.2psi

GREDDY/TRUST AIRINX AIR FILTER
HKS EVC Model 7 (Probably model 6)
Apexi Power FC

Big Port Rebuild
RELOCATE Larger Piping charge cooler ( VMOUNT INTERCOOLER)
RE-A Code Super Spark Plugs (Usually with RE they include wires and upgraded ignition)
RE-A SD Converter (HOLLOW RESONATOR)
RE-A Dolphin tail exhaust

If i can find the article in my option mags ill try to translate.

Is this really still stock moded twins? If only people here in the states could make a set of twins run that well lol. I've been thinking about going single to make 400rwhp cuz those damn twins always have some kind of damn vacuum issue. And its obvious the 7 can't lose, it just didn't feel like winning that year that's all.

The oddest part is you never see EVos in these. Ive seen an STI a few times but never any evos.
