Good point the bodykit is designed for extra downforce more than rice appeal.
Also remember this car WILL be doing 300km/h runs every weekend down Wangan Freeway.
Unlike the rest of us.
Also regarding the LS1....... YEAH RIGHT !

FWIW the body was designed by a company called Tamon Design (www.tamondesign.com) and apparently they make various body parts for a few cars.
Carbon fibre door panel for a 964:
FC bodykit:
Looks like good quality stuff, but it's hard to tell exactly what they make, for what cars, and what else they do. I know the FC kit is very reminiscent of an RE Amemiya kit so I'm wondering if they actually manufacture kits for RE. In their galleries there are a bunch of pics of various concept cars & a few race cars (including the RE JGTC GT300 widebody FD) so I dunno if they designed them for these automakers or what. There are a few pics of a Ferrari Enzo which I know was designed by a Japanese designer, but I'm not sure who it was. Go figure
Oh and another Options vid of the Scoot 4 rotor car can be found here: http://fd3s.web.infoseek.co.jp/index.html
They're all the same vid, but the bottom one is the best quality.

The tails look pretty close to those from an Infiniti M45 (a.k.a. Nissan Cedric and Nissan Gloria) but they're not quite the same. I'm thinking they're from some JDM Toyota sedan but yeah, not sure.

They are Japanese, you are american, i am british, i dont care what any of you think, the car, kit, and totally the engine is out of this world, if you won it in a competition, i dont think any of you would grumble about the kit, any one would look the dogs bollocks in this car, its truly japanese in every form and no one in any other country can make/moddify cars the way they can!
try an engine like this in your car and see how long it takes before you spin or flip the dam thing, id far rather have a kit like that than just some stupid 6 foot spoiler wacked to the rear end of my car after all this is a CAR not an airoplane!
P.s what are ricers
p.p.s is this a one off engine they have made does any one know anything about making one

Ricers are people that have their car all show and no go. They only want to impress and not to go fast or learn something out of it....

Scoot has the reputation of building some of the fastest RX-7s in Japan....
So I think this show car can whip your *** anytime....

One word.
Scoot
When your FD can do over 300km/h in under 14 seconds. You can say something.
It doesn't matter what it looks like from an engineering point of view this car one of the best FD's on the planet.
I do prefer the Red one better though.

I think the styling is interesting, but not my preference. I do want the headlights though. Give me the headlights. I want the headlights. Did I say I like the headlights? Headlights...oh and I'd like them in a satin black chrome color. Not shiney and not plastic paint looking. You know those headlights are pretty sharp.
