Ah, I love that FC. I might've missed it somehwere, but which hood is that!? I know they mentioned the RE-A front end, but does that include the hood? I love it so much. I gotta get my hands on one.

The vent is more forward on the Panspeed hood. Panspeed hood also has a small vent over the turbo.

Cool car.

that site is great, can't believe it comes from the need for speed underground creators.

not the creators, they just sponsered these guys i believe.. the website guys have had their on blog sites then they joined as one.. auto otaku was a cool blog site then he merged with them. Its a pretty good site if you want to learn about japanese car culture in my opinion, very informative. The writers know their stuff and show you whats going on.

Its a good site, really shows people that japanese car modding isnt about picking up girls and trying to look cool as it is depicted in movies and video games..

I really like those front fenders. They look wider, and more aggressive than the Foresight.

That car is also street driven. The wing is taken off before leaving the track.


I must say. That car is total beast.

I've looked for over a year for carbon fiber doors, is there a company that makes them? I could shed so much weight with lighter doors... worst design flaw in the FC, is def. the heavy *** doors!

Super Now...Mr. Imaizumi, my favorite driver. He put's it down for the FC's. I love the clip of him taking out an army of Silvia's on a track in Japan...just cant remember which track it was.

If this is the car I think you're talking about (I can't view that page at work) the hood you're looking at is the Garage Kagotani hood.

http://kagotani.ocnk.net/product/24

I'm currently in the process of finding a way of getting one myself
