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.

The wing comes off when it's not on the track.

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
