Road Legal Trophy racer in Japan

Active Member
I know some of you will of seen this car before, but i thought it was interesting to see again. The owner is a member of the Clio 3000 Trophy facebook page.

I found this old link on the Renault Tokyo website from 2008 when they got the car ready for its inspection for road registration under the current regs (it had already been on the road for a few years prior to this).

A surprised visiting car at the end of the year

The V6 trophy is coming!

Our customer's favorite car "V6 trophy Motor Sports "Has been remodeled according to the current vehicle inspection standards and visited after successfully acquiring the vehicle inspection applause
(I'm telling you easily, but a considerable number of months ...)
I see my V6 as a regular car

Power is quite different from normal V6

The engine is also exposed and it is in good condition
It is supposed to be sealed in the engine and shipment of a single item of engine parts can not be done, and in the event of engine failure, it is supposed to purchase the engine itself, not the parts

Is the lid of the engine room? Is it? Is it?


I am surprised at the engine room

With such a thing? Is it? Is it?


Because the partition between the engine and the driver's seat is this degree, I feel a threat to the heat considerably

I got an eye out of the bulkhead in the engine room

As expected, the engine for racing

This surge tank
I can not keep this size
Sounds like a "race car"
Interior decoration is also super spartan

It will be a form to get on by getting off the handle to get in
Get off the steering wheel and get on.

There is no side brake on the trophy

Looking at the cooler rear wheel

In the cool rear wheel When you expand

There is a small caliper for the side brake made by Brembo, is not it?
I am supposed to choose it.

The last time I took a picture when I was leaving ...
It will be a picture.

Haven't seen it before, so thanks for posting.

That looks like a real corker! :approve:

Presumably "side brake" means "hand brake"?
