I'm bugging out about where those tailights are from. They look soooo familiar. I thought mercedes but they are too sharp edged.

Anyone have any idea what kind of apex seal that engine is running? I assume they'd be 2mm, since its a nonturbo car.

Well, here's the AUDIO differance. The 787b not having to have a muffler and the fact that it is peripheral ported might make a differance.....



5.5m Mp3

The music of the 787b

There is no such thing as show cars in Japan that don't have the go in them too.
Scoot has the reputation of building some of the fastest RX-7s in Japan....
So I think this show car can whip your *** anytime....

Japan ???? Scoot ????? Show-car ???

Those words don't go together.

Its No show car !!!! Scoot makes the Red Street Racer FD that kills everything down Wagan Freeway in Japan.

Do they make show car is Japan ??? I thought that was just a US and Aussie thing ???

I wonder how far back they hacked the firewall to make the room for the 4rotor, if that really is one. From what i have seen you would need to drive from hatch of a FD with a 26B in it. For that reason I would rather get a 20B with a T-66.
