There's not a word of English in this video, but there is at least 3 metric tons of awesome. It's true what they say... They just don't make them like they used to.

The Ferrari driver mis-shifted which is why the Honda pulled away as hard as it did. Don't get me wrong, that was one well built Accord but the Ferrari driver screwed the pooch on making it a great race.

good video... that gto was faster than i thought it'd be and the accord ran a 12.5 in the 400m (aka, 1/4 mile). the ferrari did misshift, but it still would have been a close race if he hadn't.

355 - 2970lbs/380hp = 7.8lbs/hp
accord - 2100lbs/280hp = 7.5lbs/hp

still surprised the accord won.

If you has good JDM eyes, you'll notice that it is mounted intake forward i.e. backwards....better weight distribution.....better air flow to the huge intake plenum...1:43 in

Noticed and expected, rather commonplace even in todays JGTC and JTCC

The Supra looked like it was gaining on the GTO (AWD for the win) but I think it ultimately came out to which car had the better driver. Besides, we all know that a Supra will pretty much take any 3/S-GTO any day.

To bad the swap cost so damn much, are they still like 10k for the swap into most civic chassis??

6-10 depending on what/how you do it

but you have to consider...its 215-220WHP with no internal modifications. Its turn key power...you would spend 5000 on a B18C and another 3-5k on mods to make that power

thats still a hell of alot of money for a motor swap. Would you still have to change the cross brace in all cars??

I have model cars of the JACCS and PIAA Accords and the Castrol Supra.
I remember racing with the green PUMA GTO on Gran Turismo 2.

There are a lot of good old school best motorings up on youtube now. I guess somebody finally got around to doing the VHS transfers.

McLaren F1 test with Tsukuba time attack: http://youtube.com/watch?v=IFIR1zh-CNs

F40 vs RUF 930 vs 1st gen Viper vs NSX-R. And in case your wondering what the deal with the F-40 is in last half of the race it's because it's almighty Brembo brakes started fading to complete shit. It's still cool seeing it rocket away from everything on the straits though.

Diablo vs F355 vs F40 vs F50 vs GT2
http://youtube.com/watch?v=KPY7cBhPnmQ

Awesome drag races:

F50 vs F355. 355 gets the jump off the line so you get a great view of the F50 catching it and blowing by.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=-WmmaEyafp8

F355 vs first gen NSX-R. Not the Temple of VTEC race seen 1,000 times. This is the first gen NSX. Good close race until higher speeds.
