Man this is sweet! I just don't believe we will get this in the US as anything other than a kit for the FR-S. I also don't see the kit selling for less than $10k. That thing looks good though! #wallpaper

Yeah seems like it. Looked very similar to the new style 2012 IS F wheels (also made by BBS).

Cool.

It could be stock internals -- there's more leeway with DI to quench potential det. They might also be pushing the upper limits to see what it can withstand in the enduro race and based on that data, could scale back the power too. We'll have to wait and see...

If they can sort this out on stock internals, I'm thinking mid to upper 30's because then it would truly be a 370Z competitor in terms of looks, power, and pricing. Fully loaded, low 40's.

And, if they offer this, it will be my next car.

I agree.

No Homo ..

To the above. Comptech blower with charge cooler - and a lot of tuning.

The smaller Rotrex blowers would be better. Less peak BHP, but a lot better low down power.

They did change it, Gazoo Racing was a company who had hired drivers to compete in FIA endurance racing. M&N were the drivers initials.

From Gazoo
"M and N stands for the initials of two drivers from the Team GAZOO who challenged the 24 Hours Nürburgring in June 2007. The gVitz Turbo MNh is the machine that the Team GAZOO including those two drivers created with a united effort; at the same time, it carries the pure dreams of those who love nothing but automobiles and sports driving."

This car, if made into a production vehicle, will exceed the $35k mark with out a doubt. If the parts are sold separate, I am sure the kit will run over $20k. The body work alone to install those panels will eat up the earlier $10k estimates.

Looks like a air to water intercooler setup as well. Im a big fan of AWIC, as i have a custom setup im building for my ms6 currently!

Seriously!? The welds, bends, the intake routing, look like crap! I could have gone on. They throw in a bunch of AN fittings and polished aluminum and people wet themselves.

Spencer Strayer · 01-17-2013, 08:39 PM

any rumors on a release date? and if so, possible US models?

bdanisi · 01-17-2013, 08:49 PM

I know this is possibly the least interesting part of this car but can anyone elaborate on what exactly that rear racing spoiler is? I think it's gorgeous

Chad · 08-09-2013, 12:43 PM

This would be so ideal... maybe one day...... such a sweet setup. I still remember when Subaru claimed there was no room in here for a turbo setup, now I see this LOL!

AnthonyFT86 · 08-09-2013, 03:25 PM

DAMN I want one now!!!!!
