[Sumo Power]

Hi,

Firstly thank you to everyone who came over to our stand and had a look around at the Autosport show, we spoke to what seemed like hundreds of GTR owners from all over the UK and Europe.

Here are some pictures that were taken by Rich Sams of the car for those who missed the show. The car has now been painted satin black ( not wrapped ) and features RAYS wheels and also Toyo R888 tyres (20'') which are currently exclusive to Sumo Power.

The last shot also details the 'just in' Do-Luck coolant hose set which is now available in signature purple as well as others.

The car is now back at Sumo towers and can be viewed there for those interested to pay a visit and catch up with the cars progress.

Over the next couple of weeks the car is back on the ramp with the install of various other components which have now been prototyped in our machine shop including a special suspension lowering kit which has been completely designed in-house and is unique to our engineering and will be perfect for everyday use without compromising the car's ride at all.... stay tuned for more on that and our comprehensive testing of the Toyo R888's also.

Thanks,

Caroline.

Forgot

Forgot to mention I hope to get the car in some 'clean air' this week and take some overall pictures of the car at the shop as the lighting inside dont really do the car enough justice to see the overall effect of the paint and wheels combination, if you have some pix from the show, feel free to bung them up, this is all we have so far.....

Thanks!

Not sure, I would guess so...

is that still running the r35 engine?

No,a Nissan VK56DE 5.5L V8 as fitted to the Nissan Titan pickup truck, its to do with the new FIA GT1 rules, no puny turbos here, all about the capacity (and the sound :bowdown1: )

The official release pics are on my blog too.

Looking forward to the Championship. BTW is this car the same or similar spec the Giggerwave car of 2009?

Yup, RWD, 5.5l 600hp, all described from conversations I had with the team manager and posted on my write up on Auto-Journals.com. (I'm not allowed to link to it.)
