R35 GTR - Parking Hard, and small

Just got some of our Kyosho 1:18 scale GT-R metal models in today.  I could resist to take it outside to park next to the GT-R. My neighbors must have thought i was nuts laying in the parking lot for this shot!

Challenge - 370Z Coilovers prototypes - by GT Motoring

Challenge, a GT Motoring company, just received our prototype 370Z coilover kit from the factory in Japan. Challenge suspension products are a joint venture of Modex A /Buddy Club Japan, and GT Motoring. All suspension/shock kits are manufactured with Japanese components. Our oem spring supplier is Hypercoil. Hyperco springs are of the highest quality, and found on some of the most winning race teams in the world in Formula, Super GT, NASCAR, and Touring car etc.

When we set out to start our suspension line, we made sure we reached out to some of the top established companies in race suspensions for components and engineering assistance. ALL kits will be assembled in the USA at GT Motoring and be able to be serviced, rebuilt, repaired at our location. We are factory trained to service, revalve, and custom spec our suspensions!

The kit shown is in the prototype monotube, steel configuration. 16 levels of adjustment. Adjusting rebound and compression at the same time. Red parts are only for prototype spec and testing. Final kit specs, colors and pricing to come!

Expect the steel version to have an MSRP about $1900-2000, and the race version, full aluminum! to be about $2200-2300 range. spring rates are 12k front, 12k rear.

Feel free to email me with any questions!
