most fun car for japanese championship

[roylan101]

looking for a fun car for the japanese championship, i dont want sumthing thatll dust the competition, i tried out an efini rx-7 type r, but it drifted too much even on sport softs, and i could never catch the nsx. I didnt want to add much engine upgrades because then ill just over power them. Whats a good handling japanese sports car? Was thinking of integra type r, since i can also race mod later on, or a subaru or lancer, was thinking of the nsx but it might b too easy

edit: would also like suggestions for the european championship, other than the premium m3, i got that already and like it too much

NSX with little to no upgrades is fun. As for the European championship, since you like the M3 so much go for the M5.

I like a lot of MUGEN MOTUL CIVIC Si Race Car '87, was a very good car for the seasonal event!

Whats a good handling japanese sports car?

Pretty much anything except Supras and GTOs/3000GTs, and even then it's kind of relative. I can't remember what the standard of the competition was like, but I'm pretty sure I entered it in a (stock) Evo IX and got my life handed to me, maybe I'm getting confused with another race. I'd be tempted to try a tuned AW11 (80's) MR2, they handle almost too nicely.

Also, I know people don't really get why, but GTP's Acceptable Use Policy does state that you need to at least make an effort with your grammar.

Mr2 1600(or 1800) supercharged '80's something, some old supercharged 80's mr-2.

I thought the '87 skyline was a blast

The premium nissan 300ZX is great fun!

@LanciaAWD: I LOVE your display picture!!

Honda s800 racecar, I think it's around a '63...this is a blast!


It has 114 HP fully loaded, so it takes every lap to pull the leader in most of the time.

I know it's been 15 years since this was first posted, but I agree with PAWEL17. I used a 1986 MR2 (because I owned one in the 90s) and it was great fun! It did need a few upgrades (like all of them) for me to win all gold, but it was close with second place only being a second or two behind me.
