My Kyosho Caliber 90 ver.2002

Some weeks ago i bought this Kyosho caliber 90, new only built. Of course the mechanic is in carbon and aluminium.

It is really a masterpiece. It is the version before the "06" update. I already own a caliber M50 so now i have to search for the caliber 60 so i can collect the full line of these dream machines.

I bought also a Dwight Shilling EP conversion. So with a ratio pf 10.53 i will use a 560 kw motor and 12s li-po pack.

Nismo R1 and S1 japanease catalog

Here some shoots of Nismo brochure about R1 & S1 full tuning by Nismo Omori Factoring. These options was very expensive.

At time an official dealer removed the engine from your Skyline GTR and shipped it to Omory for the job. After you received a 450ps engine (R1 version) or 400ps (S1). Very expensive tuning. The price was 1.800.000 yen for R1.

New sports car magazine from Japan

Like every 2/3 months a new load of Japanease magazines has landed. They are:

Option issue  06, 07, 07 2012
Option 2  06, 07, 08 2012
GTR magazine issue no.105.

Like usually tons of great pics and new tuning items. Now a large part of OPTION magazines are about Toyota 86 and subaru BRZ. So new turbo kits, body aero parts, new suspensions, racing ecu and of lot more. But also new turbos for Mazda RX7, review of serious tuning with EJ20 with different parts (HKS GTII turbo, etc.)

Then there is a special about RH-9 tuner battle in Fuji circuit.with some 900ps R35s and R34s with the same power. The lap timing is ery very similar so the R34 is still a true track weapon.

Here below some pics about the page inside the magazines. There is no words it's a tuning paradise.

Last week-end i went to Marzabotto to Nick gang for a final tuning on my Subaru Impreza Spec C Type RA.So

- Maf has been removed and so now the car goes with MAP.
- Launch control active (it's a clutch killer)
- Now the engine light on cockpit is a the knock sensor (very good feature)
- Double map for 100 Ron Fuel and for 10% meth.
- Antilag feature.
