Here are some pictures of my friend's widebody RD Tiburon here in Korea.
My friend used to be one of the most famous amateur race driver, and he recently debuted again with his RD Turbo Tiburon. All of engine/tranny/body work was done by him. Because of Korean track condition, GT cars need well responsive turbo set up other than a lot of power. So he went with Garrett GT2530 turbo to produce about 320whp. His car retired due to machanical problem, but next race in next year I think he will be one of the top 3 Amatuer GT race car driver.

Well.. here are some pictures.
I do have more pictures, but some parts need to be kept secret.
Check out the 4piston brakes in front and rear.





Our track car did 3rd place as well
















More pictures from this event are on our site.
Thanks!
