Racing and modification are very important components of Japanese automotive culture, and these two trends also affect fans around the world. Of course, top events such as Japan's Super GT and D1 GP are already the talk of everyone after dinner, and Japan's car modification culture is deeply rooted in the hearts of many car fans. But what Xiaobian wants to share with you today is not The Japanese racing and modification, but another japanese racing challenge and the playability of the modification, which is the extremely fast challenge of the Japanese high-loop track.
Speaking of high-ring runway a lot is not well understood, this high-ring runway is a circular runway with an inclination angle, the vehicle on the top of the speed of more than 200Km / h more than high-speed driving, this test is the car company in the vehicle factory before the test of the stability of the extreme speed state, in the extreme speed state to drive hundreds of kilometers or even 24 hours to test the vehicle. Therefore, driving on this high-ring runway is not only a great test of the driver's courage and technology, but also a very test of the stability of the vehicle's performance.
The challenge to the high-ring track this time is the RV37 Skyline 400R modified from Japan's Phoenix Power, they have to challenge is to break through 300Km/h extreme speed, and Japan's Phoenix Power has tried 3 times for this result, the first time 180.51Km/h, the second 299.5Km/h, the third 293.461Km/h, although the second time is only 0.5Km/h to complete the challenge, It's a shame.
For the fourth challenge, Japan's Phoenix Power has made many upgrades for the Nissan Skyline 400R. Of course, let's briefly introduce this Nissan Skyline 400R, I believe that many people's first reaction after seeing this car is that this is not our domestic Infiniti Q50? Yes, it's The Japanese Q50, except that it's powered by a V6 twin-turbo engine, a high-performance Q50 with 405 hp, 475 Nm of torque output, and a Skyline 400R with the same four-round taillights as the Toei God of War.

So in order to be able to break through the 300Km/h speed, what modifications did Japan's Phoenix Power make for this Nissan Skyline 400R? The first is the high-performance turbine body from the GCG, which has achieved 556 horsepower and 779 Nm of torque output after being tuned by the ECU. In addition, in order to better exert the power, the exhaust efficiency has also been further improved, trust high flow ternary and full-stage exhaust is indispensable, not only to improve the exhaust efficiency but also to obtain a smoother power output in the high-speed range.
Of course, being able to cruise at more than 300Km/h on a high-loop runway, it is not enough to have power alone, and the chassis part also needs to be further improved. The European-Japanese Aragosta S shock is used in the car, with springs of the former 18kg/mm, rear 14kgmm and Torsen limited-slip differential to improve the stability of the vehicle at high speeds.
Another set of 20-inch Japanese BBS LM (9.5J ET40) forged wheels, as well as the front and rear 275/30 R20 YOKOHAMA high-performance tires, always firmly grip the ground. The brakes are also selected from the Japanese temple-level brake brand ENDLESS front six rear four sets, although the brakes are not used on the high-ring track, but it is still necessary when using the car every day. With some of the above modifications, the Japanese Phoenix Power modified RV37 Skyline 400R finally ran a good performance of 302.73Km/h and successfully completed the task. In addition, this result is still running on the wetland road, and I believe that the speed on the dry road can be faster.
Editor's summary: In fact, in Japan, there are many small races or challenges that we did not expect, just like this speed challenge, many stores and brands are very enthusiastic about this; because only by really creating good results can we get more customer recognition, and the official positive guidance will also give owners the best products and use effects.
And such an atmosphere is also after decades of racing, modification of the culture precipitation, so we envy at the same time, but also to give our modification market some time; although there are many uneven modification products at this stage, but our modification atmosphere is rising, the survival of the fittest market law will be eliminated a lot, then the remaining brands naturally have enough strength and excellent products. So let's wait and see!
