I know it may say CA in the tag, but how sure are you that there is indeed a CA in this car? And finding information for this one car on a page that is NOT in Japanese may prove extremely difficult.

I mean, it does sound a lot like my CA, especially when he is doing that big nasty burnout (my specialty). I really have no idea, and would have to check under the hood before I were to make any statements, but my car DOES sound a lot like that when bouncing off its 8k rpm limiter. Small, raspy, high-pitched, pissed off, revving to the moon. Unlike my CA though, it did not fail catastrophically on the line.

It ALSO sounds like my buddies built SR. Sound alone is not a 100% tell-tale sign for me. I never denied it was a CA.

That said, I still stand by my statement that the video alone can give us enough info to help find out. I will give it a shot though.

That's a Jun Auto CA. Or at least it's the JUN valvecover and roll bar is painted in JUN livery. Either way it's hella nasty.

Normally I would think the car just has a Jun built motor (via the service they offer) however in the top pic the sign on the pit wall seems to say "Jun" so it might be one of their R&D cars?..or at least majority sponsored, just not painted on the outside to match. The car also appears to have fender flares that Jun carries on their website.

JUN Hyper Lemon CA18!!! It is legend!!



You know you mean business when the sheet of metal separating the cabin and the trunk is titanium. Also, NAWZZZ x2.

On a second look, are they using a SINGLE fogger system? Why wouldn't you just go direct port if you are going to spend so much money on everything else?

Follow the lines from the nos solenoids

I see they don't use a dry sump system (although sump itself looks modified)

I wonder what oil pump they use?

Did you make this figure?

Or did the vehicle in this thread?

Not calling BS (I am intrigued to the nature of the build), but unless you have solid evidence....

Kind of vague post man. If you're going to throw numbers out like that, you had better bring supporting evidence and some video to boot because trying to bs this forum is not the easiest thing to do; and these numbers with no evidence sounds like it qualifies. Inquiring builders and tuners wanna know.

He asked the user who posted the video. Check out the comments under the video on YouTube. The guy claims it is a friends car and that it does in fact make 838whp. he lists some mods and stuff, but nothing conclusive. I won't believe it without a dyno sheet, but that is what the guy who posted the video SAID. There is a video dee, its in the first post haha.

I saw the video and it just shows a fast car, nothing else. when people posted my old car with me racing an S2000, they said my car had an SR20DET in it and we all know my preference. Just because someone claims something doesn't mean that it's true. And if this car is truly making 800+whp on nitrous, it should be doing better than 9 seconds, but still fast nonetheless. The point here is not to be tossing around #s, especially from youtube off hearsay, so like you said nothing conclusive. Wouldn't you like to see what's under the hood?
