fizzbitt Posted July 25, 2007 Report Share Posted July 25, 2007 Friday afternoon arrived and got soaked to my boxers! lol Sat was still raining and sunday finally turned better.. Got some pics in where i could of some lovely motors. ) My friends S15 How shiny is that! Old school Celica Supra completely restored and looking bloody stunning! This is Fensports Toyota Caldina GT4. Only one in the country! 280bhp. No more are allowed to be imported now so its rare as hell! This is Fensports 7th gen Celica with the 3SGTE transplant and also converted from FWD to 4WD and is used for track attacks and 1/4 mile. This is the HKS NSX-R demo car which has been bought and then added to it a huge supercharger and intercooler... Man i love this. Was by far my fav car from the event! This is a mates Supercharged S2000. Has us SC kit with straight through zorst. Electronic gizmo's galore and as much CF kit as you could shake a stick at. Even the bloody boot is CF! Its currently pushing out 375bhp at the fly and he is looking to get a bigger pully to get some more psi in there. And finally some random cars which i liked the look of. This 80's RX7 TT is actually from Holland and he came over with a load of mates in Supra's etc.. he even has the front windscreen tinted as well. Looked sexy as hell... Now for some random shots. Tad bright ehh...lol I have all these shots in high res should anyone like a copy. Hope you enjoy the pics.. Fizz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sayerbloke Posted July 25, 2007 Report Share Posted July 25, 2007 Good pics I only took about 30 pics because my camera was playing up. I think that NSX pictured was the only one at the show... I don't remember seeing any others. Nice cars Don't remember the Fensport Celica. Very impressive! Love S15s. Pity there are so few in this country.

fizzbitt Posted July 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2007 Last year there were at least 5 NSX's there... This year i saw 2. There was this black one and a green one as well. S15's are getting a little more common now but still not enough for my liking. The Fensport celica was near the food stalls and when it was raining they parked it behind other cars out of the way of paople going past for obvious reasons.

cruiser647 Posted July 25, 2007 Report Share Posted July 25, 2007 Nearly bought a house by the showground! Glad we didn't now. But I saw a lovely original Celica 2000GT Coupe on the way out of P'Bro on Sunday. Great condition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fizzbitt Posted July 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2007 Wasnt white by any chance was it? Driven by a youngish asian lad? Reason i ask as there was a stunning one at the event. Battery ran out before i could take a pic. And even if you did by a home by there.. this even is only 1 weekend per year. im sure you would have been fine.

Driven by an old (50?) white geezer. Was immaculate. The rear of them is very original Mustang like! Also saw a nasty, bad bodykitted Nissan ZX (old one) in deep metallic bluse. That showground is used every weekend for something or other. Few months ago it was the motorhome briade.......East of England show, Dog Championships (yuk), Truck Fest etc etc. All with people camping out - so might have been good for the odd viewing, but most of the time, probably hassle.

[/ QUOTE ] Was the green one on the ITR-DC2 pitch? If so, then that's a rather nice NSX-R. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fizzbitt Posted July 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2007 indeed it was... never got a good look at it though. The black one pictured above is also a R... Was not amusing when i pulled into the place with my Bora TDi.. Previous year i was in a GT4 and the year before that i was in a MR2 Tbar Turbo... ohh how things have changed. I had to hide my car behind my mates motors.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

biturbo Posted July 25, 2007 Report Share Posted July 25, 2007 Is it just me or do none of these cars look 'nice'? Nothing wrong with the stats/peformance but where's the style? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] Although it's a matter of opinion, there are some Jap cars I think look good. Mitsi 3000GT, Nissan 200sx ['97 onwards], Nissan Skyline R34 and the Mazda RX7 are the ones which first leap to mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shao_khan Posted July 25, 2007 Report Share Posted July 25, 2007 I remember going to the first one of these many many years ago - great show. I like a lot of the Japanese cars - shame we generally get the luke warm stuff over here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] There were Delicas there [as usual] but I don't think I got any pics before my camera gave up on me. My workmate is currently selling his on eBay That's most of the ones I got... enough to show some of the variety of stuff there. I took over a hundred pics the previous two years! Oh, and turns out I did see the Fensport car after all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pyro Posted July 26, 2007 Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 The fensport celica is a beast. I remember when they did the corolla that did 200mph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
v15ben Posted July 26, 2007 Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 The Fensport Celica is certianly a weapon and Adrian Smith drives it very well in the Time Attack series. The Calina (sp?) is always outside the Fensport garage at race meets. It seems they use it as a support car I recognise quite a few of the cars from earlier Jap' events this year including Donington and Silverstone and no doubt several of them will be at Knockhill this weekend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
