[NEW] HKS Rotrex Supercharger (S2000)
January 13, 2012 § 2 Comments
The long awaited HKS Rotrex supercharger kit for the S2000 is finally out! And let me be the first to say that this is by far the best looking supercharger kit available for the S2000. Since it’s still brand new, there’s not a whole lot of numbers and statistics available, but I’m sure this kit is capable of churning out 300-400 bhps.
Cybertron!

Yup, it’s another Voltex Cyber-kitted Evo. This time, it’s Canadian tuner, Advance Powerhouse’s track beast hailing from Toronto. I must say, them Canadians do know how to build some nice cars these days, better watch out USA!

One of the best things about owning a BMW is when you have a sudden appetite for speed, you have a company by the name of Active Autowerke to turn to. For many years, AA has been able to provide reliable turbo and supercharged power to BMWs all across the globe. The ADV.1 wheels and HKS GT supercharger equipped E46 below, is a prime example of AA’s immaculate craftsmanship and attention to detail.

Big thanks to one of my good friend for linking me to pics of this absolutely amazing Subaru. This GRB is rocking some real baller parts if you take a look at the pictures. Like the title said, this car is equipped with a full Varis kit, along with a set of flat black Advan RG-Ds, Voltex rear spoiler, and a host of other goodies.

Wider Down Under

It’s very unfortunate that the Nissan Silvia S15 was never imported into the U.S., but there are many parts of the world, who did not suffer from our misfortune. One of them is the country down under, Australia. Many Aussies have some sort of exposure to the tuning scene, and Japanese tuning has been extremely big as of late…I mean, the World Time Attack is only held in Sydney…..So, it didn’t really surprised me when I came upon this ultra sleek widebody S15…
This beauty is rockin’ a rare Wise Square Besiege D1 Spec Pro widebody kit…yeah, I know, long ass name…It’s also rolling on some 19 inch Volk Racing GT-V wheels and is powered my a HKS T04Z turbo’d powerplant. Talk about the complete package!

This is by far one of the most stunning stock-bodied RX-7 FD3S that I’ve seen…..EVER. Something about this car is just so damn attractive! All the colors just kind of ‘Pops’ in your face, and I love how the colors are matching from the red Bride Gias’ to the red Volk CE28Ns’, to the white body color and white Cusco rollcage. And to top off all this blingage, the car’s sporting a rebuilt 13B motor, equipped with a single T04Z turbocharger…..talk about zoom-zoom!

Here’s the in-car footage of the Hankook/Revolution RX7 FD3S lapping the Tsukuba Circuit in 53.673 secs…..just a tad slower than HKS’ CT230r Evolution.
Enjoy.
