DCUPS Evolution

Chester's awesome DCUPS FD has recently evolved.

This one of THE best Privately owned and tuned FD3s RX7 on the planet in terms of being a completely modified car starting from an almost standard one with GT-C body kit.

Chester's list of componentry reads like a shoppers dream, add the power specs and competency of this car and you get something quite special.

The fact that the body is still relatively untouched is testament to the standard shape of the FD.

Engine recently recieved a Single turbo conversion and every single component polished to perfection.

Recent CE28N finished in Time Attack Red line and black make the image one of true JDM style.
The size still seems a little large up front. But there is no denying this car has a real aura.

Interior is also very up to par. a place the driver car appreciate.


The last image is one of purpose. A tribute to Chester's time, money and passion to create nothing but the best. But some little voice tells me Chester needs some a lot wilder than a stadard bodied car.
The car is now in new ownership. Good luck with new things.
Russ.

  1. This car was recently featured in autosalon; it's my biggest inspiration to own and modify my own FD.

  2. I'm pretty sure the HP is around 500 but runs around 320 for the street.

    Weight would probably be around 1200kg, hasn't had a lot of weight reduction methods applied aside the seats and fiberglass kit- carbon bonnet.
