It is the third K-swapped car in all of Japan, performed maybe 5 years ago. It is a very "internet famous" car, but no one ever knew any information about it. Luckily we had the opportunity to visit his shop and get full details on all his cars. It is a CTR with carbon doors, carbon hood, fiberglass trunk, plexi windows and a lot of stuff cut out of the chassis (weight reduction). Reverse stagger wheels with 225/45/16 Advan A050s.

Here is an older picture of it, which has been circulated amongst the internet numerous times..

I love this EK!
So flush, & it still has plenty meat for grip.
I like meaty tires!

Any info on the suspension, body mods to accommodate those tires?

Same here.

I heard they claim it because of balance.
The B series( to them) keeps everything in perfect harmony. :D
Just enough for the loop in Osaka.

Interesting combo on the suspension. How's the ride?

I have Yonaka's sitting in the garage from my old daily... maybe I should dust them off...

Not too bad, found the yonakas dirt cheap so I figured I might as well try it out...
