A Big Congratulations to Mr Junichi & the J'Racing Team !!!




.... sadly HMRT didn't fare too well this year .... apparently both HMRT Cars "26" & "27" faced technical difficulties in this year's MME race edition.

I will post up the other pics I took later .... keep a look out !

Mugen RR Fascination .... more

Mugen-Power website created a skeleton illustration of their prized creation this year ....

The Mugen RR Fascination

The Mugen RR Fascination


The Mugen RR is a different CTR by itself. Only 300 produced and snapped within 15mins it was offered online.

250ps of raw K20 power, vented muscular hood, twin exhaust system, short shifter, re-designed front bumper which is functional by itself. Duct for brake coling is is revised using an air scoop plate beneath. Carbon fibre engine covear .... the aerodynamics remain the same except there is added "rear ducktail spoiler" .... rear spoiler is revised to an adjustable type and the reverse rear spoiler is replaced by a normal rear diffuser .....



The front grille is made of entirely carbon fibre ...

I chance on some pics and found out through several friends, that the revised front and rear bumper is made of entirely FRP !!! ..... the difference is Japanese FRP is itself very sturdy and its capable of flexing as well.



but love the Mugen RR key ....

J'sRacing CF Rear Diffuser

J'sRacing CTR "Carbon Fibre" Rear Diffuser

The replacement rear diffuser for the CTR has been released by JsRacing recently, to pair up with the 3D GT Wing. This rear diffuser looks like an equipment coming out from "The Dark Knight" movie. Totally awesome. Comes in FRP & CF ....

J'sRacing Int'l Racing Team

The J'sRacing Touge Monster is here in town ....

1. The J'sRacing International Racing Team are in Malaysia this week to participate in the 2008 Merdeka Millenium Endurance (MME) Race.

J'sRacing brought their S2000 race car for MME 2008. The J's "Super Taikyu" CTR couldn't make it due to logistics of another race being held in Japan within 1 week after MME '08.



And yes, this is the same S2000 found on their intro web page (http://www.jsracing.co.jp). The S2000 comes fitted with 6-pot JsRacing brake calipers and 350mm slotted & vented racing rotors. It is held on 4 wheels by Rays TE37 rims with full super slick tyres (I saw wet tyres as well while at the pit stop section). The rear spoiler is the new 3D GT Wing for S2000 by J's.

2. A few days prior, a bunch of lucky & fortunate Honda enthusiasts and media got a chance to spent some time with the J'sRacing International Racing Team.



3. J'sRacing is participating in the Class A category of the MME. They qualified on 6th position with an average time of 2min 26s.

J'sRacing Super Taikyu Bumper

J'sRacing "Super Taikyu" CTR Bumper

1. This is how it looks like, the commercially retailed replacement CTR bumper by J'sRacing.

2. The bumper kit comes with :-

a. New bumper

b. New air intake ducts for brake cooling

c. 2 pairs of "carbon fibre" air carnards
d. "Carbon fibre" air dam splitter

I have inspected the finishing of the products and they are impeccable in quality.

3. The local authorised distributor for J'sRacing is Pentagon Enterprise Sdn Bhd. Below are 2 newly designed wallpapers I made myself as this was the 1st commercial fitted outside Japan....

The CTR looks very awesome and extremely fierce to look at from your rear view mirror .....
