the price made me choose d2 racing as well as they were 8 pot brakes rather than all the others were 6 pot. the brakes are pretty good however going back i would have chosen ap racing

Nice..the EVO 6 bumper looks better than the 5. Please post some videos of the engine revving and the exhaust.

Quite simple. D2, etc use 8 pistons, while brembo and AP might use 6. However the diameter of the pistons on the D2 are tiny, while the brembo and AP are larger. overall surface area of the pistons in the brembo/AP pistons is much more which delivers more force for braking, hence are better...

Nice ride with some serious modifications. As for the colour, were you inspired by the tokyo drift mazda ? Anyways it looks brilliant wish i could see it up close some day.

Now all we need is a EVO vs R35 vs F430 vs Supra shootout at the next drag!!!

With 500whp, this car should therotically be able to leave the R35....way behind. It'l be interesting to see how it fares under actual racing condiions.

Hi,
Sorry for going OT but I have some question regarding the FD Simulator.
1. Can it work with xbox 360 & PS3.
2. Can you PM me the cost and from where I can get one.

I will appreciate the help.

well at the moment the car is runniin super fast infact on drag it was quicker than a supercharged new m3 460hp by quite a distance thenwhen put up against the f430 it puts up a solid fight but the gear changes of the f1 box are to precise and fast giving it an advantage however it would depend on a rolling start it all depends which car felling better on the day...as for the mighty r35...i give upmost respect to the r35 so even if this evo is anywhere near out of respect the R35 is the king of japan and can not be compared to this car.....personally i feel apart from a 997tt and a skyline bring it on.

as for the force dynamics its a racing simulator that can be hooked up to a pc or gaming console of your choice. you can google it FORCE DYNAMICS SIMULATOR and get all the details i must warn you they cost about
$ 90,000. but its the closest feeling to the real thing you will get to driving a F1 car flat out or doing a dakar rally. overall it will improve your driving skills a lot and let you drift around morning to night without killing anyone or crashing your car

I did googled FD on internet but didnt found the price. Saw some video on you tube and it rocks. I saw something similar (Not FD 401) for 20 grands in US. You got it shipped to India or do they have dealer in India. Can you please PM any contact info.
Sorry for going OT.
