However, special panels attached to the underside of the hood, rendered them obsolete (unless you remove the panels), but offered protection from water and debris.Įventually, the TRD 3000 GT package became available to individual clients, with normal versions of the Supra.Grab these legally-imported right-hand-drive rides before someone else snatches them up. The vents are also functional, as they relieved all the negative air pressure while improving the engine cooling. Most recognizable are the geometric vents on the bonnet, which we also see on the orange Supra from the original Fast & Furious movie. In addition, the body panels feature additional air vents.

The TRD 3000 GT included the usual “breather” mods for the 2JZ GTE engine, as well as upgraded suspension but the main focus was on replacing the heavy body panels with more aerodynamic ones, made from fiber-reinforced plastic. The car featured a unique body kit, resembling that of the Supra GT500 race car. Based on the fourth-generation Supra, each of the 35 cars had a unique VIN number and was classified as a TRD 3000 GT. A total of 35 cars were made so the Supra can enter the 1994 Japanese Grand Touring Championship (JGTC). Just like the R33 GTR LM, the Supra TRD 3000 GT was a homologation car. The engine was standard and produced around 320 horsepower. All cars were painted in Championship Blue. Carbon rear wing blade, N1 cooling ducts, commemorative decals, and a bonnet lip were the only editions. Of those, 86 were built on the standard GTR R33 car, while the other 102 were built on the V-Spec models. Only 188 Limited editions were built in 1996. Ironically, the R33 GTR LM Limited wasn’t as “limited”, as the one-off “not limited” LM. The R33 GTR LM is stored in Nissan’s Zama storage facility. While the glorious RB26 DETT pumped out 400 horsepower for the racing version, the one-off road-legal R33 GTR LM was detuned to 300 horsepower. The interior is, pretty much, your standard R33 GTR, with the exception of the NISMO Alcantara steering wheel and Alcantara racing seats with a checkered texture in the middle. It featured a unique wide body kit and RAYS forged wheels. The first one (the not limited) is a one-off homologation car built in 1995 so the R33 could compete in the GT1 endurance series. The R33 may be considered the fat ugly child, but the rarest Skyline GTR is, in fact, from the R33 generation. These are two different variants with almost identical names.

Versions equipped with the 1.8-liter and the six-speed manual could execute the 0 to 60 mph (97 km/h) sprint in around 7.9 seconds on to a top speed of 127 mph (205 km/h). Mazda essentially welded a roof on top of the roadster variant and called it a day. The coupe is actually 22 pounds (10 kg) heavier than the roadster. According to sources, the reason the coupe never gained much traction is a fire in one of Mazda’s painting facilities in Mazda’s plant in Ujina. Less than 10 Type E were produced, which leaves around 53 Type-A cars. The Type-S and Type-A used the 1.8-liter engine mated to a six-speed manual.Ībout 53 were the standard 1.6-liter cars, while 63 were the Type S models. The base car is the only one, equipped with a 1.6-liter engine and a five-speed manual. There were four trims – the base car, Type-S, Type-A, and Type-E, which had a strange body kit and the four-speed automatic. In terms of specs, the car was powered by the same engines. They were sold in Japan only, which makes the MX-5 Coupe a true JDM car. It all started with the Mazda Miata M-Coupe Concept and the M2 1008, both based on the NA, but with different styling. What you probably didn’t know, however, is that Mazda worked on a proper coupe version of the MX-5 as early as 1996. Starting with what’s probably the most loved compact sports car from Japan, the Mazda MX-5 has enjoyed great success since 1989. SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Mazda Miata (NA & NB) Coupe
