@iamrobbyah Was there in 2004 :) Got to interview/meet Mr. Amemiya and had him sign a model of his JGTC FD for my son--still have it in my office. JGTC is my favorite race series, really need it more here in the US.
@smileasikillu that make us really appreciate it in Malaysia :) i went to watch Super GT every year without fail. but so sad this year RE not participating
Wow that engine sound reminds me of the 767b. Despite the RX8 apparently being a cracking number I still lament the cease of RX7 production, absolute classics from the moment they left the production line. I don't remember a time I walked past one without taking a mental photograph!
@ghostdance7 The sad thing is that they are somewhat a endangered species.
Every time a Fast and Furious movie comes out, more and more proper RXs get ruined.
Quite sad, if you want to know.
As for the RX8, well, I like it, but it simply isn't in the same league. Not only isn't it as powerful, but the chassis aren't quite a match for it's predecessor neither.
Makes it hard to be a fan of Super GT when they won't televise it in the states, and every broadcast you do see is in Japanese...with how fuckin' crazy these things are, it would catch on quick in the rest of the world...
Awesome.....would love to see this car come to Australia and smash the gay v8 supercars that arnt even ford or holden......probably only the badge is factory lol
JGTC/Super GT cars are silhouette racers (purpose built racing chassis with street car bodies) just like Aussie Supercars. Both classes are not built on the street cars themselves, so this is no more Mazda than a V8 supercar is a Ford or a Holden. Also, the Mazda in this video is a GT300 car with roughly 300hp, so it would probably be beaten by a V8 Supercar, which has over double the HP.
wow buddy you really have no clue huh? that 20b could have 200 horses and would still win around a circuit against a v8.. ive seen a 12a do that.. so i know a 20b can.
haha you'd like to believe that wouldnt you? the fact still remains the same you know nothing about cars, HP does NOT always determine the race, and yes, it is a mazda. the chassis is mazda, the 20b is a mazda motor, and the parts on the engine are made for mazda because its for a fucking rotary, right? right so shut the fuck up and sit down.
haha its funny because im not sure if you saw but they went through whats common and independent on the 2, only the engine and bodywork lol! floorpan gearbox exhaust suspension rollcage etc all common to both holden and ford, they showed it on bathurst this year
It would be interesting to see a GT300 car against the V8SC's. I think depending on the track it could go either way. The 12at sportssedan vs the EL(iirc) wasn't a very good match up. The v8 was down on power and driving ability- the lap times were well off what a good v8SC can do around Wakefied.
Wayne Gardner apparently holds the unofficial lap record at QR in a GT500 Supra (about 8 sec quicker than v8sc...
lol yes that would be most interesting to see. Which, though, would you think would win - a V8SC Commodore or a GT300 RX-7? Honestly, I'd pick the RX-7 since it's a lot lighter and therefore easier to throw around corners.
no comptetition the gt300 rx7 for sure, its lighter, handles a hell of alot better and has better aerodynamics, though the gt300 has about half the horsepower.
@AceWombatZero I'd say the RX-7 would walk all over the Commodore. That's why they don't let them race at Bathurst along with all the other Japanese cars like the Supra / Skyline etc..
@gav240z maybe coz bathurst are more australian based.. its just pure muscle like the australian equivelant of america but this thing would eat them for breakfast tho xD
@mopasaurus that why the skylines and rx7's were banned from bathurst cause they used to race ogether only bak then the mazdas ran the small 12a rotory not the bigger 21b or even the 26b like the 787b

DAMN i notice amemiya car always lose by a mere split second to a number 2 car . always the 3rd n lose to the stupid 2nd car by a fuckin split second . its everywhere manz . gt class , time attack or watever shit . i tink amemiya san nid to find a more better driver , because im sure it can achieve the 2nd position .
this super GT FD3S RX7 from RE AMEMIYA can burn the ferrari and lambo apart.if this car is possible to enter singpore i can say no other car in singapore is faster then this super GT FD3S RX7 from RE AMEMIYA
