I'd gladly rape a Tommy ZZII for it's engine and driveline.

Btw, I hope everybody knows that the ZZII is FWD until the fronts break traction, then becomes 4WD... :P

Justin, how can that be so when it's rear mounted?
look at the way the engines facing... the rear wheels of the ZZII match up in the exact same place as the 'front' diff on the RB26... gearbox is backwards... :P

I just kidding, thats ZZII is an amazing engineering feat.

Don't make me slap you awake first thing in the morning mate...it's 4WD.

I know what your thinking, they installed the 4WD backwards...404kW (550ps) would be torque steer monster in a FWD....

Also this is the RS-01 not Garaiya though they are essentially the same car.

RS-01 is powered by RB26DETT, the Garaiya is SR20VE IIRC.

RS-01?? I've seen the rest of those pics mate... it's TK ZZII. You can also tell by the destinctive dual air intakes on the roof that are there for the rear mounted 'cooler.

**Edit: below are the rest of the pics... yes you have to wake up earlier :)

Technically speaking the TK ZZII doesn't exist IIRC, was sold off to Autobacs Seven before it made production and known as the Garaiya. RS-01 was a concept and never made production.

There you go... learn something new every day.

The RS-01 wasactually the ZZII (the same car) but Tommy Kaira developed the car further to meet Tommy Kaira's customers standards (read: luxury interior, driveline refinement etc), so the 2 cars are actually the same... but Tommy K licenced the ZZII for use in Gran Turismo games whereas ASL weren't interested.

Tomita-san (Tommy Kaira) and Sumino san (Autobacs Seven) are very close friends and produced this car together so I found out at Response.jp

Just an update, we've sorted the car out and she made [email protected] (AFR:11.5). We could have ran 1.6bars but kept boost at 1.5bars for street reliability, also the stock turbo was running out of puff.

113.5awkw/L, all factory internals (unopen motor), turbo and injectors.
