Now that’s one bad ass car!

"BENSOPRA "

i love how people keep innovating with a chassis that was disco’d 15 years ago.

Because everything newer is so big. Front end is ugly but function > looks. I wonder if the transmission is in the back.

1100 HP, 867 lbf/ft then the dyno maxed out.

Hgnnnnuhhhhh

LOL, my thoughts exactly

:smiley: I love how much respect & inspiration they have for our s-chassis cars in the homeland of Japan, especially the S13 in this case!

I’m looking forward to the updates on the Top Speed run, they say that car has stole the show. No doubt it’s a unique build!

Didn’t know about BenSopra till now, and I’m impressed!

^ agreed, all the time and money that has gone into that build and there using a 20 year old chassis design. I’ll be keeping an eye on this. Anyone else notice that hideous coolant over flow tank in the mix of with all the custom work

Amazing Shot of the beast!

and all that with z32 brakes lol im sure they will upgrade those

Better upgrade with the R35 brakes, might as well lol

Well for one stop on a closed course like nardo they don’t need insane brakes. They are not doing corner to corner heel & toe going crazy on a road coarse.
