Supreme Ti - 94mm Titanium Exhaust for GT-R

   Now with quad 125mm burnt Titanium Tips!
GReddy is proud to introduce a new update to the popular GReddy 94mm Titanium Exhaust for the R35 GT-R. In addition to a name change, the new system now features 10mm larger quad 125mm (4.9”) burnt Titanium tips, to better fill up those GT-R rear tip cut outs.  The system maintains it's proven design.  It's has great performance for upgraded GT-Rs but still comfortable for milder, daily-driven GT-Rs. The large dual oval mufflers provide excellent sound suppression and sound quality, while large piping frees up power for the twin turbo VR engine.   It also comes with a huge dual 80mm (3.15") to 94mm (3.7") Y-pipe. The construction is made-up of carefully hand-built 94mm piping is pain-painstakingly "inch-welded" for excellent fitment and flow.  The ideal exhaust for the R35 GT-R is the 94mm GReddy Supreme Ti !

The 2014 Round 3 of the Gran Turismo D1 Grand Prix series was held at Autopolis on July 26-27th.  The long straight of the the circuit played into the hands of Masato Kawabata and the 1000+hp GReddy 35RX Dspec GT-R of the TRUST Racing X Team Toyo Tires Drift Team.  Debuting a new Artfactory Metallic Blue livery for the event, and coming off a Exhibition match win at the Ken Block Nagoya Experience, Kawabata won the top Qualifying position with a 100.41pt score in the dry.

However Sunday's competition day, again brought bad weather, with rain and fog.  Because of this, the event was shorten to start with a Top16 field of cars.  The first round win came again the Team Mori with Goodyear Athlete in the wet.  In the next round against eventual winner Kunny's, a power-steering issues a raised to stop the day short.  All in all it was a very positive round, which showed the potential of Masato Kawabata in the fairly new R35 Drift car.  Next round is dangerous but exciting Ebisu Circuit in August 23-24.

The GReddy 35RX Dspec GT-R wins in Nagoya


Ken Block's Nagoya Experience D1GP Stars Winner!
   Masato Kawabata - Team Toyo Drift x TRUST Racing 35RX Dspec GT-R


On July 5th, Ken Block returned to Japan for a huge demo featuring 12 of the top D1 Grand Prix drifters.  Or very own Masato Kawabata in the Team Toyo Tires Drift x TRUST Racing 35RX Dspec GT-R, not only qualified no.1, but came out victorious in an unusually tight and strangely decorated Gymkhana-like course to over 9,000 Japanese fans.


Being the winner of the D1 Tandem battle, Kawabata won a chance to challenge the purpose built AWD Ford of Ken Block.  We have to say, for a large, high-speed pro-drift car like the 35RX GT-R, was surprisingly competitive at the hands of Kawabata!

TRUST Event Coverage from D1GP Rd.2 Suzuka



Round 2 of the 2014 Gran Turismo D1 Grand Prix series was held at Suzuka Circuit.  The Suzuka course layout is the fastest of the series, with a very long straight-away going into the famous Turn 1.  The key to this round is speed and a having a good line to take advantage of the speed.  Teams that can achieve this, will gain high scores.  The obvious weight handy-cap we faced in round one, was far less important on this high speed track, since we could use the raw horsepower of the GReddy-powered VR engine.

 
In Saturday's first pre-qualifying session, Kawabata was able to take advantage of the 35RX's power with an exciting, high speed run scoring 101.40pts (the highest score ever recorded in D1GP,) placing him in 1st.  Kawabata was faster then all the top teams and was clocked at speeds in excess of 227km/h (140+mph.)  The team was feeling confident and aimed to better the speed and score in the Qualifying finals (Tanso,) unfortunately it was just over the limit and a slight mistake, placed the Team in the 22nd position for the tandem battles. 


In Sunday's Tsuiso round, Kawabata faced Tokita of Goodyear Racing.  Kawabata manged to keep an impressive proximity to Tokita and received a decisive victory to move on to the next round.  Unfortunately car troubles, which could not be repaired in time, forced the team to retire and miss the next battle.



Round 3 - Autopolis is scheduled for July 26-27th

Heavy rain fell on the second day of competition for the Tsuiso (twin drift) rounds.  Kawabata in the new car, and Saito, in his IS struggled in the heavy rain with the win going to Saito in the first round, before the rest of the competition was cancelled because of the rail.

The team faced a lot of challenges and learned a lot from this first event at FUJI DRIFT.  Round 2 is Suzuka.  Thank you for your continued support!
