Popular Japanese used sports car exports
Here are some details of popular sports car exports. Don't forget we can also find European and American brands as well.
Nissan Skyline
From 1989 -1999 there were 3 models of Skyline GT-R produced. The R32, R33, and the R34. Each features the RB26DETT engine, ATTESA E-TS all wheel drive system, and Nissan's Super HICAS four wheel steering system.
The engine is 2.6 liter, dual overhead cam, 24 valve, twin turbo charged, and intercooled producing 276 hp @ 6800rpm, capable of handling over 600 hp without internal modifications.
The ATTESA E-TS system an electronically controlled all wheel drive system. When the computer senses a loss of traction it automatically sends up to 50 % of the torque to the front wheels. Under normal conditions the car remains rear wheel drive.
The R33 and R34 are available with ATTESA E-TS Pro. The Pro system includes a more aggressively controlled torque splitting computer and an electronically controlled limited slip differential in the rear end.
Subaru Impreza WRX STi
The Subaru Impreza was launched in November of 1992. It was made with rallying in mind. Subaru needed a better rally car than Legacy, which had moderate success in the World Rally Championship. Having a lighter and more compact body than the Legacy, Impreza immediately became one of the most dominant participants in the World Rally Championship.
The Impreza WRX STI is powered by a turbocharged and intercooled 2.5-liter DOHC boxer engine producing 300 horsepower at 6,000 rpm and 300 lb-ft of peak torque at 4,000 rpm. Teamed exclusively to a 6-speed manual transmission, the engine can propel the WRX STI from zero-to-60 mph in under five seconds.
Toyota MR2
The latest generation Toyota MR2 is a no-compromise roadster designed to excite true sports car enthusiasts. It is fun to drive, good to look at and affordable to own. Like all the best roadsters the new Toyota MR2 combines traditional sports characteristics with modern engineering.
It draws on the legend of two, highly successful previous generations of MR2 to create a new, modern style for the 21st century. For the first time in its 14 year history, the MR2 is now a full soft top roadster with manual folding fabric roof.
The new Toyota MR2 retains its mid-engined, rear wheel drive format for precise handling, with excellent stability and balance. But it is also lightweight - Toyota engineers have used the very latest technology to cut weight and boost performance.
The MR2's 1.8-litre 16v engine has Variable Valve Timing-intelligence (VVT-i) for maximum mid-range torque and superb top-end power, with the best fuel consumption in its class.
Purposeful, agile, technically advanced - the new Toyota MR2 is powered by a sophisticated 1.8-litre, 16v VVT-i engine developing 138bhp at 6,400rpm and maximum torque of 127lb.ft at 4,400rpm. Thanks to its low body weight (less than 1000 kg), the new MR2 Roadster is targeted to have the best power-to-weight ratio in its class and performance to match.
