In this episode of Larry Chen's adventures, he takes us to Garage Active in California to witness the birth of a truly remarkable machine: the first-ever full carbon R33 GTR build. With a whopping 141 horsepower engine, lightweight anti-gravity lithium battery, and a striking candy red paint job, this car is a sight to behold. The wider body and unique fade paint scheme add to its allure, making it a standout at SEMA and beyond.
Inside, the handcrafted leather interior exudes luxury and modernity, a departure from the usual dark and heavy GTR interiors. The attention to detail is impeccable, with every element carefully considered and expertly executed. This build is not just about looks; it's designed for street driving comfort with the capability for occasional track outings, striking the perfect balance between style and performance.
Under the hood, HKS components, GT3 turbos, and a target of 650 horsepower promise exhilarating performance. The signature hood, dry carbon grill, and active widebody front bumper kit further enhance the car's aggressive yet sophisticated appearance. With a price tag starting at $300-350k, this complete car build is a testament to Garage Active's dedication to quality and craftsmanship. Larry also hints at future projects, including custom headlights for the R33, showcasing the brand's commitment to innovation and excellence in the automotive world.
