Default Pics from my trip the other day (56k がんばて)

I'm studying in Japan for the summer, and wanted to visit some shops so I went on a trip last Saturday to Toda Racing. Here are the pics. Toda is located in the Okayama prefecture of Japan, which is down in the southern part. It took us roughly 3 1/2 hours to get there, and its pretty rural, so if you try to go, make sure some speaks a bit of Japanese. However when you get there, there is a guy named Yuichi who actually speaks pretty good English! Anyway, This is Toda's new factory, it opened in March of this year. They had been in their old factory for over 30 years, and this one is supposed to be much nicer!

Here is some info on what you will see in the pics:
K20A Motor: Fully Toda Built, and partially cut away to show the internals
F20C Motor: Fully Toda Built
B16A Motor: From What I was told this is one of their Gymkhana Race Motors
Toda Race Car: This actual car ran a few days ago according to Yuichi
R33 Skyline GTR: Toda Cams, In for certification
STi: Toda Stroker Kit
Altezza: Toda Stroker Kit
DC5: This is a customers car, Fully Built Toda motor, custom ITB Manifold, STREET LEGAL, Fightex EX Dampers, Comp. is 12.2:1, Makes over 260 N/A Hp (not sure if that is wheel)

Enjoy:


































Well thats about it, enjoy!

My apologies. Yes, the ones on the DC5. I'm thinking I'll be switching to a smaller intake manifold setup next year, once all the bugs are worked out with my K-swap.

Toda lists them at $2800, without the custom carbon fiber box and intake setup
