JUN releases new short block assemblies for EJ20, EJ25

 Japanese Performance Car News, Donnerstag, 17 Juli 2008 in Partner- und Mitglieder-Blogs, jpcnews.blogspot.com

Blown a hole in the side of your WRX's/Forester's/Legacy's engine block recently? Don't bother with replacing it with any ol' Subaru motor, instead save up a bit of coin and splurge on a brand-new, JUN-built EJ short block!You can have your block in one of two flavours: Basic, or EX. As the name implies, Basic covers just a fairly standard rebuilt block, with JUN pistons being the only non-Subaru part used in the assembly. EX, on the other hand, raises the bar by a whole lot, with JUN throwing...

Nismo's R35 Enduro Racer Spotted Testing At Sendai

 Japanese Performance Car News, Mittwoch, 16 Juli 2008 in Partner- und Mitglieder-Blogs, jpcnews.blogspot.com

Nismo's entrant for the upcoming Tokachi 24 hour enduro has been spotted at the Sendai Highland circuit undergoing testing in preparation for the big race, which begins on July 20.Clothed in a vibrant hue of red, the stripped-out GT-R is supposedly a testbed for Nismo's future parts line-up for the R35 and as we can see from GTR-World's awesome photos, it seems there's also a couple of Spec-V parts on this car, such as the carbon-fibre vented front lip.As mentioned before, Nismo have elected to...

Rumours n' Renderings: 2010 NSX

 Japanese Performance Car News, Mittwoch, 16 Juli 2008 in Partner- und Mitglieder-Blogs, jpcnews.blogspot.com

NSX fever is fast approaching, and Japanese mag Holiday Auto have begun sneezing into the incubator to help it spread. According to HA, the 2010 Acura NSX will definitely feature a dry-sumped, 90-degree V10 with a 5.5-litre displacement and a power rating of 441kW.Torque will be a very handy 588Nm, which should be more than enough to get the NSX's anticipated 1500kg moving. Interestingly, HA also say the NSX will feature a sports-tuned and RWD-biased version of the Legend's SH-AWD system,...

That annual orgy of automotive hedonism, the Goodwood Festival of Speed, took place over the weekend and although the emphasis (as always) was undoubtedly on the local produce, a handful of tasty Japanese treats did manage to find their way onto Lord March's hallowed driveway. For those that couldn't make it we've prepared for you a small collection of images of the most noteworthy entrants, so sit back, grab a gin & tonic and enjoy the pics after the jump. I swear, every time I see the...

Nearly every part is targeted at the performance enthusiast,...

370Z Caught On Video

 Japanese Performance Car News, Samstag, 12 Juli 2008 in Partner- und Mitglieder-Blogs, jpcnews.blogspot.com

Well, kinda. It seems that Nissan are determined to keep the finer details of the next Z-car quite literally under wraps until the vehicle's November launch at the LA motor show, however an eagle-eyed 350Z driver managed to capture a short video of what appears to be a 370Z prototype motoring along some American highway. While you can't really see anything beyond the acres of black vinyl, it's hard not to feel excited about Nissan's next sports coupe. It's close people, real close. Video after...

Honda OSM To Debut At British Motor Show, Honda Insists It Ain't The New S2000

 Japanese Performance Car News, Donnerstag, 10 Juli 2008 in Partner- und Mitglieder-Blogs, jpcnews.blogspot.com

On July 22 we'll be able to lay eyes on Honda's newest concept car, the open-topped OSM. While the lack of roof and sporty proportions may suggest that the OSM is a forerunner to the new S2000, don't get too excited: Honda say that it's only a concept and in no way intended to replace the aging roadster.Like the CR-Z hybrid sports hatch, the OSM (or Open Study Model) is designed to incorporate a low emissions powerplant with a lightweight and capable chassis. Honda are remaining coy on engine...

R35 Proves Its Mettle At Superlap Time Attack

 Japanese Performance Car News, Mittwoch, 09 Juli 2008 in Partner- und Mitglieder-Blogs, jpcnews.blogspot.com

Time Attack is now a truly global phenomenon, and the latest country to fall under its spell is Australia. The country's inaugural time attack meeting was held at Oran Park in New South Wales on July 5, and being the first proper chance for me to experience such an event first hand I flew up to Sydney to check it out.The entrant list was massive and the field was incredibly diverse. There were the mandatory Evos, STIs and Skylines, but there were also a few unexpected entries too, like an A31...

Honey, I Shrunk The 4A-GE...

 Japanese Performance Car News, Montag, 07 Juli 2008 in Partner- und Mitglieder-Blogs, jpcnews.blogspot.com

Back in the glory days of high school I squandered much of my youth bent over little pieces of plastic, desperately trying to arrange them into a shape that more or less resembled a car without gluing anything critical to my fingers or inhaling too much paint. I pretty much abandoned this hobby soon after I realised that scale model cars rarely - if ever - excited the ladies and that "professional model car builder" was not really the most impressive job description. Still, I'm always impressed...

Rumours n' Renderings: 2010 Honda S2000

 Japanese Performance Car News, Sonntag, 06 Juli 2008 in Partner- und Mitglieder-Blogs, jpcnews.blogspot.com

Will the next generation of Honda roadster debut in 2010? Will it also feature a (gasp) 260kW 3.5-litre V6 as well as a more traditional 286hp 2.4-litre inline-four under it's lengthy bonnet? Will Japanese car magazines never stop producing speculative renderings? According to the mag that published the above picture, the answer to all of the above is "yes".Now all you Honda-philes out there just calm down a sec, for at this stage this is just another unsubstantiated rumour. Of course, the AP2...

Regardless of the race's outcome though, you can rest assured that when Nismo bring out their much-vaunted R-Tune parts for the GT-R that...

Mugen Release Sports Suspension Kit For The Inspire

 Japanese Performance Car News, Mittwoch, 02 Juli 2008 in Partner- und Mitglieder-Blogs, jpcnews.blogspot.com

Okay, so the CP3 Inspire/Accord isn't the most sporty of Japanese cars, but I sure know a lot of people who enjoy modifying theirs. If you think your one could use a tauter ride, then you might be interested in Mugen's latest release: a set of sports dampers and springs for the Inspire.Mugen's suspension kit drops the car 20mm on each corner and turns up the spring rates to 6.99kg/mm on the front and 3.75kg/mm on the rear. Damping ratios have also been revised and the end result is a car that...
