Hakosuka GTR- A JDM masterpiece

We were fortunate enough to witness the concourse restoration of a JDM legend this year. The standard of work delivered by the GTR shop on this build was nothing short of perfection.

What really makes this car special aside from the attention to detail is the legendary S20 Engine. Originally designed by the Motorsport engineering department at Prince as a race Engine this really is the heart and soul of the GTR. It may not have a great deal of power by modern standards but the mechanical symphony from under the bonnet delivers something that is so rare in this day and age...

Having seen the car built from the ground up it shows the attention to detail in design was excellent! One thing that really stood out was the centre mounted fuel tank over the rear axle positioned with care to keep a neutral balance and weight distribution, this was only one detail of many.

It’s sad to say it’s highly unlikely this car will see road use. With an estimated value of £250k and a concourse restoration it is highly likely this will sit amongst some other very special vehicles in this private owners collection.
Fortunately we managed to capture this all on video which can be seen here...
